[SCS Blog] Euro Truck Simulator 2 Update 1.24 in Open Beta


Guest

Recommended Posts

A new wave of game updates is almost here. We are going to do a staged release for Open Betas of our truck sim twins; the first in line is Update 1.24 for Euro Truck Simulator 2. We want to avoid receiving too much feedback on too many things at the same time, so we will try your patience a bit more, and wait for a day or two with the Open Beta of the update for American Truck Simulator (+Arizona at last!).

As with every major game update, there are hundreds of changes and tweaks under the hood, but there two very notable new features, and a host of changes worth mentioning in a short changelog:

MAIN NEW FEATURES
ets2_external_contracts.jpg
adv_coupling_scheme.png

Advanced trailer coupling in action:


CODE
  • Speeding highlight can be disabled (option).
  • Torque converter simulation greatly improved.
  • Automatic transmission behavior improved.
  • XInput support added.
  • Added UI support for 4th and 5th controller
  • SKRS detection and support
  • Gear shift selectors (range, split) now have UI support for position-based switches.
DATA AND MODDING
  • Scania trucks reworked, accessories added (intake, mask, bumper, mudflap, etc.).
  • Unit name fixes, most interior accessory and some other mods need update.
  • Damage params moved out from game_data.sii and some more added (including wear and part damage factors).
  • Data driven engines (torque curve, rpm limits).
  • Force feedback data for XInput added (force_feedback.sii).
  • Torque converter physics data added, separated manual clutch data (physics.sii).

You can find the beta in the public_beta branch on Steam. (Steam client → LIBRARY → right click on Euro Truck Simulator 2 → Properties → Betas tab → public_beta - 1.24 public beta). No password is required. A word of caution: make sure to back-up your profile and save game data before experimenting with beta builds!

Please keep in mind that this is still only a test version of the update, it's perfectly ok for you to wait and stay away from it until it's stable and final. If you are curious though and want to assist us in polishing it, we greatly appreciate your help. Please report any bugs on our forum.

^ Nope, MP doesn't support Beta updates, atleast as far as I know.

About the update, I'm really interested in trying this update out! The advanced trailer coupling looks awesome and I'm so happy that we can finally take WoT Contracts in the game itself instead of Alt-Tabbing and then going to website and choosing one from there :D
And not to mention that this sentence " and wait for a day or two with the Open Beta of the update for American Truck Simulator (+Arizona at last!)." got me even more happier!

The Scania is the only truck having multiple new hook-up-points for parts. I'm wondering what will come in the next few weeks or even months. Especially with with the other trucks.

Also tried the advanced trailer coupling and the new WOTr cargo market. Last one is pretty nice. And the advanced trailer coupling is not that hard as I thought. You just need a bit precision and a bit patience.

Please drive respectful on the servers. Thank you!

Does this mean SCS is planning on adding buses to the game?  (also seems that its just those two cities, Esbjerg and Liege get that warning)

Yes, they posted about it on the SCS blog last year some time.

^^ Well that was quite a few years ago so who knows what will actually come of it.

Although if it does come out as a DLC, I am defiantly on the list of buyers.

I'm pretty sure that it is for the buses that run in-game. The buses actually stop at particular stops and it's almost a full simulation of a bus route. But I'm no coding genius so that info may not be 100% true

It is a BETA so getting warnings wont be a surprise. Or is this a currently official update to the game?

The CEO of SCS in an interview with Squirrel stated that they are working on it slowly, but keep changing their mind on how they want to distribute. It looks like the last option was it'll be a DLC for ETS but its not a main priority.
