I would advise to contact support about this. On another note, as other people said, your TruckersMP profile already have 4 bans on record within one year. Please note that creating an account to avoid a temporary or permanent ban is deemed as ban evading.

I totally support this idea! Big +1 from me! I would prefer seeing the direction of users in the GPS than @Kravaty's idea of showing it in the tab. Sorry Kravaty, I just feel it would be more convenient for me, because I don't have the time to look at 80+ players in the tab list. But hey, can I suggest a small modification to this suggestion? I'll steal Kravaty's idea of distinguishing people at stop (or barely moving). I'm just messing around, all credits goes to you Kravaty for suggesting to show people not moving. My thought was about showing the arrow when someone is moving a certain minimum speed, otherwise it would just show a dot in the GPS. Did you mean adding an option to disable player's orientation? I know there's currently an option to simply hide players in the GPS. And on a side note about sending/receiving data about the truck movements, I think there could be optimization in the multiplayer mod. But I honestly have no clue on how exactly the developer implemented it.

I have the High Power Cargo Pack DLC installed in my library. I never ran into issues finding the trailers, but some can only be found from certain companies. Here is what you should look for: Yacht, Tube, Tractor, Tracks, Roller, Helicopter, Driller, Air Conditioner. The Tube is a very large green hollow tube I believe. The Tractor looks like a Challenger tractor on tracks. The Roller is a different model of roller than the default in-game one. The rest are unique and should be easily recognizable. You should also be able to see the three Heavy Duty paint jobs provided from the DLC. In the game menu (after loading your profile), go in About->Trailer Browser, choose Overweight in the drop down list on upper-left corner, then you can choose which cargo you want to look at in the drop down list in the upper-middle of the screen. Note that it's only a trailer browser, you will not get the job in there. It is just to see if you have the DLC properly installed or not.

I like the idea, so that way you can leave for a little break without having to constantly check to make sure you don't get kicked. Not sure how hard it would be for that to be implemented though.

Is this the first time you use multiplayer launcher? Was the game purchased legitimately? Can you describe what exactly happens step by step following the game launch? When using TruckersMP launcher, you should be able to launch the game (ETS2). Then the two short game intro videos should play. If you don't see the TruckersMP login menu afterward, then we know there's an issue.

Do you know for how long you haven't played? Have you tried to create a new profile to see if the problem persists? Your error seems to come from that info.sii file though. I checked mine and it contains a few info and all the DLC dependencies. I tried to find where I downloaded the sii decrypter I'm using, but no luck. All I know is it was not compiled in Java and it's really useful.

If only I knew that... several months ago lol.

Imagine if someone puts truck wheels, Michelin tires on a car and haul a custom trailer with extra hitbox or something, that would be nice!

I feel bad for the single truckers lol. We could say I am too in a way...

I like the idea of setting a colour for friends in chat/CB. Something similar to the players/friends on the GPS which I don't see how it would be complicated to add. I mean it would make it so much easier to find your friend's message if there's a lot of people talking at the same time.

Launch ETS2 from TruckersMP launcher, and when you're in TMP login, click on yellow gear icon on the very top left corner. Under Mods tab, you should be able to uncheck wintermod, then clicking apply and restarting the TMP client should do it. I didn't have any particle effects at beginning, probably because I left it unchecked from last year mod. But I just ended up unchecking the mod itself. I had an issue with a game admin thinking that multiple guys I reported for ghost driving at 5 AM (in-game) may not have wintermod. I think I should have clarified the in-game time during the report video.

I don't know if any admins will read this, but there's one potential issue with the Winter Mod. I was delivering my load and I noticed that it gets pretty dark before 7 PM in-game. I saw an incoming truck at the very last second and it was maybe around a quarter to seven.

ETS2 Winter mod? Yay! No support for ATS Christmas paintjob? *sigh*

Apparently, clicking multiple times on the download update in the launcher will cause weird issues and ending up with an error dialog. Lol.

Someone was too lazy to spell the trailer DLC lol. I sure wish they will get to support it some time. Nonetheless, thanks for the update.

Oh Canada! Guess where my friend is.

Really nice guide! But I have one concern about particularly large convoys. Not that I will host or pilot one, but I am just curious about how it could work out. You mentionned about pilot #1 leading and pilot #2 tailing in "safe" highways (4 ways highways with obstruction in middle). Let's say there's a convoy with at least 10-15 trucks, how would they manage it if they enter a rural road? Or is it a special case where pilots manage the convoy differently?

I experienced that server "freeze" two or three times. On one of them, I was online and then everyone stopped moving so I knew what was happening. There's up to 6 servers affected by it, which is odd and annoying. I hope they'll find a way to stop the issue for a while. Cheers, Lord Benjinathor

I tried connecting on ATS (United States server) and it didn't work. I checked this: https://stats.truckersmp.com/live and I'm not surprised why. Some servers are... not letting people in or out. Looks like a glitch or server freezing.
