Little PSA for those in ETS2's EU2 server:
Avoid Paris for a while. There are two players at the moment who are intentionally crashing into everyone they can.

Little PSA for you all:
For those of you who have edited or are thinking of editing the physics of your vehicle via the console with commands or the settings file itself, I will leave here this recommendation: Do NOT do it! There are too many people doing it wrong and causing their vehicles to behave in a manner that is harmful to other players around because the effects those commands produce take away most of the control you can have over your vehicle. That's a violation of rule 2.1 because it ends up working as a abuse of feature, even if you do it via the console. And you know what happens to who's banned under rule 2.1. The rule is clear:
Quote§2.1 - Hacking/Bug/Feature abusing - PERMANENT BAN
Using any kind of tool to change gameplay, including but not limited to using the in-game console, trainers or cheat engine in order to bypass the speeding limiter, to jump hack, no collision hack or anything similar. Misusing features such as the ghost mode to cause damage to others or similar.
If you want to have some fun with absurd physics values, then do it on singleplayer, but remember to change them back to normal values before coming back to MP. If you are unsure what values are accepted, then it's best to simply not touch them, at all. Only really do it if you are serious and actually know what you are doing.

Default values are fine, as far as I am aware. The problem is if you go beyond that to either plus or minor. The effects it will cause can result in super erratic movements and general behavior from the vehicle. I've seen trucks bounce like a beach ball, a car take off like a space ship, a truck hover over the ground as if it gravity were weaker than on the moon, I've seen a truck roll over its own front end just from braking lightly at low speed, trucks tilt sideways when turning and invading the opposite lane and other bizarre things. And all because of incorrect values.

Little reminder for anyone who has been banned for whatever reason: Do NOT message staff members about your ban. Especially Game Moderators and upper staff. This will not solve your issue as we do not deal with this kind of thing outside of the bans/appeals system. Not to mention that only the Game Moderator who banned you can do something about your situation. Don't send staff any PMs on the forums, don't tag them, don't make threads about your ban, don't send messages to them on Discord, etc. If you want your ban to be reviewed and possibly removed, then what you must do instead is make a ban appeal. Only that can do anything for you and only through that (ban appeal) a Game Moderator will be able to talk to you about your ban and only through that you may have your ban removed.
If you don't know how to make an appeal, then please read the following guide:
And remember: Be patient! Appeals are normally answered in up to three days. Don't expect evidence to be available right away or for the Game Moderator to respond to your appeal immediately. We have many appeals to answer to and many evidence videos to upload so we can provide them to you and we have to do it all in our spare time. Sometimes it can be overwhelming and as a result, there might be some waiting so please, be patient. If you appeal, we will see it. There is no need to "poke" us or other staff member outside of the appeals system, alright? If you have been banned, make a ban appeal and the Game Moderator who banned you will respond as soon as possible.

Little something I quickly put up together just now.

Long day of work, lots of stuff to do and yet I couldn't manage to finish it all. It is now 8:05 PM and only now I could get home. It was already past 6PM when I was driving back home, going down the street heading outside the downtown area when upon stepping on the clutch and shifting into 3rd gear after a speed bump, the clutch cable snapped and the pedal plunged onto the floor, leaving me stuck on 3rd gear downhill. Thank God, though, there was a bunch of free parking spots on my right so since I was already driving on the right lane/slow lane, I simply had to apply the brakes and pull up. To prevent the gearbox from taking any damage from the engine's rotation as I stopped the car I shutdown the engine as it came to a full stop. I am not sure that's how I was supposed to do it but better safe than sorry!

Looking forward to those doubles, triples and menu background! Gonna try out the beta for ATS later when I get the time.

Looks guys! My new gaming rig! Yes, it does sport an AMD CPU and graphics card. How did you know?
(Jk. I haven't got a new rig and if I had, it would be Intel and NVidia. )

Loving this game!
I can't win a single match against even the AI (I'm just bad at fighting games. Not afraid to admit it lol) but I am having fun!

Man, I spent the past five/six hours drawing. I'm dead! Made a lot of progress on a commission and a new thing I just started, though! Really worth it.

Man, it's so difficult to get the amount of hits required for a Gold Medal in the levels of Star Fox Zero. I'm never going to unlock the Retro and Black Arwings like this. Corneria alone requires 300 and my best is 257. I'm not good enough. Yet.

Man, unfortunately I have to stop. For how long have I been working on this art, today? Around seven or eight hours, if I am correct. Woah! O.o Besides a break of nearly an hour to rest a bit and eat some food about four hours ago, I pretty much did absolutely nothing all day but work on this pic. I'm impressed with myself. lol And I am nearly done now, too! Though it's already past 11PM, I have to wake up early tomorrow to work (got a full day of work ahead of me, tomorrow. :c) so that means I have to go to bed earlier. I still need to have dinner and take a shower (I do need that shower) and though I actually don't want to stop, my body is insisting I do so. I am very tired. But I want to continue. ;-; Though logic tells me I must stop for today. I've done enough. Great progress achieved.
I hope I can finish shading tomorrow night, tops. If anything shall be left to finish after tomorrow's art session, I hope it will be complementary effects. Either way this pic must to be finished and uploaded by Thursday. So far I am still in the schedule I predicted for myself, though, so that's good.

Man... thanks to this one client I couldn't give proper attention to anything besides work for the past two days. >:( Hopefully I can get stuff done tonight. Gotta catch up with support tickets.

Mario Kart Double Dash!! Some say it's the best, some say it's the worst, but which is it really? I don't know. I never played it before. So let's play it and find out for ourselves!
