Do you have a screenshot of the error message? Can you provide the game log? There could be clues to what exactly might be causing the crash. Also make sure you have latest .NET Framework (or later), DirectX, and Microsoft Visual C++ 2015. You can check this guide too. You can also use CCleaner to clean files and registry errors.

Does it only happen in TruckersMP? Is it only when taking a trailer? From what I can understand, the speed limiter in the game menu settings is enabled, but is it in a darker grey? If you don't wish to take on an External Contract (World of Trucks), you can take Freight Market, Cargo Market (owned trailers only), or Quick Jobs. If the list is empty or nearly empty, you can sleep at any parking places or quick travel to another garage which will update the list.

Can you provide the game log? It could possibly have clues of what is causing the game to tab out. It could also be a background process that is stealing the focus of your screen. You can download a Windows focus logger to diagnostic which application may be the cause of the game tabbing out.

Hello, According to the video you provided, you have selected the installation directory of TruckersMP launcher into where ETS 2 is installed. You will need to uninstall TruckersMP launcher and delete every TruckersMP files leftover. Then you go on Steam, right click ETS 2, properties, local files, then verify integrity of game files. Then you can install TruckersMP launcher again, and make sure that you select where you want the launcher to be installed, then ETS 2 game folder. (I leave everything by default)

Hello, Despite that the launcher talks about the winter mod, the season is over and it's not supported on TruckersMP. You'll have to wait for next winter or to use the mod in single player instead.

Joining World of Truck is easy, you should register using your Steam account that you plan on using for playing on TruckersMP. https://worldoftrucks.com/en/join The advantage of it is that there's plenty of choices to chose to deliver when you're in a certain city. You might need to tell your friend to take the job at the same time since your friend might not see the exact same job if he looks after you took the load. But with that, you'll be forced to have the truck speed limiter on during the contract, and if you F7, it will cancel the contract. That's the only downside of it.

I'm afraid that the only way would be to post a suggestion here: https://forum.truckersmp.com/index.php?/forum/550-new-suggestions/

I can understand the pain, I wanted to add custom air horns too, with the unused sounds, some sounded cool but yeah there's no actual way to just swap the sound file like you'd swap an accessory on your truck.

@ScaniaFan89 I remember Forerunner saying it was against the rules a while ago. Well at least if you try to add a new air horn with different sound via a /home mod, since it's not a regular accessory item, but an addon. If you try to make a mod out of the sii file, it'll only work in single player.

@cishore I don't think there's is an "easy" way to modify the file if you do it like in this tutorial. But I can give you tips on how to do what you aim for. If you don't have many trucks, it should be easy to find the truck in question. Although, if you have a lot of trucks, you may want to make sure you're driving the truck you want to modify, for easier reference. Then you can search for "my_truck: " and there's only one occurrence conveniently. You'll need to search for that address until you'll see "vehicle : " followed by the address. Optionally, you can copy the address and paste it in a new notepad document. Next part requires a little bit of search, since you'll want to scroll down and find the paint job of your DAF. You can look for clues, like if nearby parts has reference to "daf.xf", or search for the address of the paint job, which should bring you back to the list of accessories. Then you can look further above for the vehicle address and see if it matches the one pasted in the new notepad document. For the actual paint job, it'll be a little bit tricky to have custom colors without the right tools, since you probably won't go too far with something that looks like this: "&3f7b74cd". That's the way SCS decided to save the color values. I'm going to guess the darker shade of gray on that paint job might be one of those mask color (I'm not sure why SCS made it _r, _g, and _b since they're just color 2, 3 and 4, while 1 is base color). When it's unused, you'll usually see something like (1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0), or (0, 0, 1) with commas in between, but not always the case. Since you want the second color to be red (really simply color), I think the quickest way would be to put the first three mask colors as (1, 0, 0), so you'll be guaranteed to get the result you want. If you want a different shade of red, you might need to use a tool for that, there should be a link for it in the tutorial.

Hello @Maix785, For the issue with the time, I don't think you can do anything about it, since the time doesn't flow the same way on multiplayer. Unless you want to save edit the time it'll expire... But when you get a game change detected, can you provide the game log? Make sure that you don't start the game again after encountering the game change, or else it will be overwritten. It might be possible that when you go in single player, that there was caravan cargo in job list that it cannot load. I have put these two files in my mod folder and there is no more problem with Skoda and Caravans. First one has files for the Caravan (and escort van?), and second one has files for the actual Skoda. Asir already explained where to get it, but the "sh" Skoda is in Shared folder instead of ETS2, if you want to grab it too.

Yes you can, and I'm sure there's other odd things you can do with save editing. But I think most people will be looking for being able to F7 without going back to Gedser or having to use quick load.

Pro tip for anyone messing with any trailers in chain (double, triple...), you can edit the trailer def to disable the country limitation (cargo), and make the game think it is a single trailer (F7). EDIT: Even if the chain type is set to single, the parking will take the length of the trailer in consideration. So when you align the trailer to load/unload the cargo, it should fit completely within the parking lines. Only issue might be if someone gets into a company that might be too small for the trailer to fit. I've made a short little video to quickly showcase the cargo being "delivered" outside Scandinavia.

Hello @BertholdtHoover, is it possible that you have seen such trailers on the side near Calais? It might be possible that those players might have got the warning and had to make a U-turn at the nearby fuel station before they get kicked. I have personally seen a few players coming from C-D road shortly after leaving Calais and that was the only place I have ever seen them. Other than that, I'm sure your question has been answered. It is true, but only for someone who leaves the trailer definition as a double. It is possible to make the game think it is a single trailer, hence being able to F7 to any nearby cities outside Scandinavia.

It is normal for the front of your truck to lift with the tag lift chassis and heavy load. The red line shows the powered axle. The blue and orange line is the fifth wheel and semi trailer pin. The weight is more distributed behind the powered axle. The yellow arrow defines the truck trying to pull the trailer. The green arrow defines the trailer resistance to move (weight). I hope that gives a good enough explanation as to why it happens. So next time, I would suggest to lower the axle when you carry heavier loads, since you'll find that you'll get less grip on your front tires if you don't do so, and it's worse when accelerating at lower speed (more torque = more force) and truck might not be able to turn and cause some issues.

If you're beginning, you'll want to spend your points in ADR, long distance and high value to get cargo with good price. Cargo like Ammunition is good, but I think the most valuable ones are the cargo from the Heavy Cargo Pack DLC

@LenniusPlays Is it possible that the cause of the lag would be due to missing DLC? Here's the one you have according to the log: Going east Mighty griffin Scandinavia (north) Wheel tuning pack Rocket league Cabin accessories High power cargo pack I have noticed that it was trying to load parts and/or trailers from other DLC not mentioned in that list. Here's some DLC it refers to: Schwarzmüller trailer pack Krone trailer pack Raven truck design Heavy cargo pack Out of curiosity, does it happen in single player at all? If so, you may need a new clean profile. If it happens on multiplayer only, maybe you can buy some of these DLC.

@LenniusPlays One thing you haven't provided yet is the actual game log. Just make sure that it comes from the session where you experience those freezes, since the game log only keeps the data of the last session. Also we can't do much with the error code of your last crash (C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION), since it is a common error code that is thrown by exceptions. There's a good explanation of the code there but I doubt it would be of any help in this scenario since we know the program of origin of the error code. https://www.windowsbbs.com/threads/what-causes-exception-code-c0000005-access_violation.40538/

I did a small test about how much time it takes from when I click on Yes when I leave the game and when it actually returns to the desktop. ETS 2 multiplayer: 12 seconds ETS 2 single player: 3 seconds I only did one test for each, but I think that should be sufficient enough to show that leaving the game on multiplayer does take more time. My theory would be because it might have more resources to unload when going online, and that the multiplayer is still an alpha. When you exit the game, are you forced to use the task manager?

Could you provide the content of your game log and paste it on Pastebin? https://pastebin.com/

If you experience any crash, please provide all logs (game.crash.txt and game.log.txt), which are located in Documents - Euro Truck Simulator 2. Also make sure that the last time you played on ETS 2 was when you experienced the crash, because the game log is only for the last time you opened the game.
