Hello! ?   I just wanted to post a quick update on the 1.37 port progress for those checking-in on this post.   We are very close to a release now, with testing taking place in the team. Now at 95% completion, there is just some work needed on the CB Radio and Skoda vehicle, as well as fixing reported bugs found by the team.   After this is complete, everything should be ready for release.?   There is no estimated date yet, but as soon as it's ready, the u

Greetings!

Since the official release of 1.37 for American Truck Simulator (ATS) and Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2) over a month ago, we have observed an influx of questions and frustration for multiplayer support on the latest version.

Today, we wanted to reach out to the community to express our mutual thoughts around the situation, and to provide an insight into the current progress.

POSTER

A lot of effort has already gone into porting multiplayer to 1.37, and we would like to assure you that progress is being made daily. You will be happy to know that 1.37 is now in a 'working state', with 90% of the work complete. This is good news, as this means while using the latest version of ETS2 and ATS we can connect to our test servers. However, if there are unexpected bugs presented, this percentage can change at any time.

There has been some speculation of the latest DLC 'FH Tuning Pack' causing a slow-down on the progress. Thankfully, this is not true, as the new DLC can be supported very quickly.

However, what is causing a delay in progress is the newest sound engine (FMOD). This is a new core feature in the game, which has presented new challenges for our developers. Right now they are currently reimplementing the truck sounds, which is consuming 9% of the 10% remaining to complete the port to 1.37. The remaining 1% is for finalising other minor tasks.

In an effort to answer some popular questions, we have listed our answers below. Of course, if there are additional questions you would like to ask, you are welcome to post it on our forum topic. We will monitor the topic over the next few days and answer them as soon as possible.

When is multiplayer support for 1.37 expected to release?

You may have seen it mentioned often that the 1.37 support is 'ready when it's ready', or 'it is coming soon'. We understand this is not helpful information to you, and it can be frustrating not being given any updates about it.

The reason for this is because there are too many possible outcomes to promise a set date. Instead, we can only speculate on a rough time period. However, if things don't go as planned, this can be extended.

Right now only the lead developer 'mwl4' has the knowledge, skills, and tools to prepare the port from 1.36 to 1.37. In addition to him working on the update, he has personal commitments in the real world.

The whole team are supporting him to the best of our abilities, but we are limited to only minor tasks.

Please remember that ETS2 and ATS are single-player games at their core, and having a working multiplayer for so many years is a feat of its own! We know a lot of you are losing patience, but supporting multiplayer takes an unbelievable amount of skill and time.

How can I stay up to date with information about 1.37?

We will ensure you are informed by keeping our social media channels and information regularly updated.

You can check them out below:

TruckersMP News | Development Announcements (forums) | Discord | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook

I already upgraded to 1.37, how can I play on the multiplayer servers?

As multiplayer does not support the 1.37 version yet, you will need to downgrade your game version.

We have provided a guide on how to downgrade your games to 1.36 here: How to downgrade

Why are you still focusing on large official events such as Real Operations V9, instead of working on 1.37?

The TruckersMP Team consists of over 200 members. Each member has an area in the project to focus on. Official events are created by the Event Management and Event Team. They collectively spend thousands of hours to provide the community with fresh and exciting events.

The multiplayer port to 1.37 is an effort the Developers focus on. Presently, only mwl4 and ShawnCZek work on the game client due to their skills and knowledge in that area.

I have seen a lot of client updates recently, are they contributing towards 1.37?

The updates you will have seen recently were primarily bug fixes and features required in general for the multiplayer mod. The target version for these updates was mostly for 1.36, however, some updates were made in preparation for 1.37.

These updates were required and did not affect the 1.37 update progress.

As Summer is approaching, will the Spring weather mod be removed?

The Spring weather mod will be removed on the release of multiplayer support for 1.37.

ProMods 2.46 is ready, will it be supported on 1.37?

Initially, the ProMods servers will be offline for a few days until multiplayer support for 2.46 is ready.

You can expect ProMods to return on version 2.46 shortly after the release of multiplayer on 1.37.

Will the World of Trucks 'Operation Genoa Bridge' event be supported?

As this event is only available in 1.37, it cannot be supported yet. If the event is still active when we support 1.37 then it will be available on multiplayer.

Will the latest DLC 'FH Tuning Pack' be supported?

Yes. We can support the FH Tuning Pack DLC very quickly, so you can expect this to be added in the initial update for 1.37.

This concludes our development update for 1.37.

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that continues to support the TruckersMP project. Your patience is greatly appreciated and we understand you are keen for the 1.37 multiplayer support.

We are listening to your questions and concerns about the 1.37 support and hope this information has helped you in some way.

-TruckersMP Team

I'm sure that servers will be under huge load when the update gets finally released. Schwarzmuller Trailer Pack DLC took a while to get supported after official release, since the DLC uses models, which aren't in the base game. 

 

If you want to ask anywhere on forums whenever 32-bit version of MP will be supported in future, try to start GTA V on your 32-bit machine before checking game's system requirements.

Instead of quoting the post above, use the ^ character. The character is actually pointing to the post above.

At first i would like to thank TruckersMP Team for Development Update and information 33 days after 1.37 update was released by SCS. I would like to ask some questions if you dont mind and also mention that in annauncment. 

 

1) You say there is only two peoples that due their knowlage and skills focus on working on 1.37,  mwl4 and ShawnCZek. Do you can confirm that none of them worked on Real Operations V9?

2 ) Is it true that there were new cars and other vehicles for admins during Real Operations V9. I heard (i didnt see it on my eyes)  that admins used this vehicles ( new car and digger ) on this event? Do you can ensure that no one who can work on releasing as soon as possible  version 1.37 on TMP, wasted time preparing this vehicles from Real Operations V9 ? I suppose that the work on introducing new vehicles on TMP for admins, which on single player there are no such options in the basic version of the game released by SCS, took someone who can program a lot of time ... I think that not only me, but also more players, would like to be sure that Real Operations V9 did not cause delays in the introduction of 1.37 on TMP. However, everything indicates differently ...

3) How this new vehicles and cars that you added for admins on TMP which are not supported by SCS basic version of the game affectes and delay releasing 1.37 on TMP? Can you confirm that we are not waiting so long for the release of 1.37 because of problems with these vehicles on version 1.37 ?

4) Why didn't you moved in time Real Operations V9 after the release of version 1.37 on TMP? In this way, you would allow more players to participate. Looking at statistics from your site, after May 5 players' activity on TMP decreased by half ...

5) I see you posted that 13.06 and 14.06 there will be new event Racing Championship - Summer 2020. Will it be on 1.36 or 1.37. If on 1.36 the same question as in point 3. Why you do not wait till release 1.37 on TMP?

 

Thank you for attention.

Experienced TMP player.

Those vehicles were already in the AI Vehicles list of the base game, @Forerunner can explain it better than i can!

I hope that this version fixes my problem. The sound in multiplayer does not work for me. Intro starts with sond then boom nothing.

Thanks for the update, also about the ability of opening and closing the windows in the game, will that be synced in the multiplayer?

 

This will not be synchronised initially as it is low priority for supporting 1.37. It will be looked into in the near future.

Hi. Will the Scout Skoda Car have openable windows?

 

I am waiting for an answer on this from Add-On Management and will respond again later when it is confirmed.

How can I be part of the testing team?  ?

 

We do not plan to have external testing available for the latest version. Testing will be tasked to the TruckersMP Team.

1) mwl4 and Shawn were not involved in the development of Real Operations V9. The only way they were involved was to push to event content to the launcher. This is something which takes a few minutes.

 

2) There were AI converted vehicles used in Real Ops V9, yes. A lot of them were re-used from V7, but there were some new additions. These are solely created by the Add-On Management and Add-On Team, whom are not involved in porting to 1.37. The map-edited operations were created by the Add-On Team and Event Management. The 70+ Real Ops V9 staff tested the vehicles and operations. Again, the only work the developers responsible for porting 1.37 did for this event was to push to content to the launcher.

 

3) The new vehicles for admins are not a priority and do not cause a delay on the 1.37 update.

 

4) The official events are scheduled months in advance, so it is difficult to move them to later dates as we also have other events taking place in the future. We also have to be aware of other community events taking place in the future. It was agreed that we would continue operating official events to their schedule, as planned in the calendar, regardless of the game version. We have had a successful turn-out in attendance to the official events in 1.36 so far.

 

5) The Racing Championship only consists of custom map-edited content. The aim is to run the event on 1.36, however, should 1.37 be supported before the event takes place then it is a low amount of work to update it to 1.37 as well. This content is only developed by Event Management and the Add-On Team. The developers involved in porting 1.37 just need to push the content to the launcher, which will be done in the next few days.

Thank you for the overdue status update ?. Good work needs its time and it is ready when it is ready. If there are no informations about the update process, speculations grow and grow, frustration too. After reading this forum in the past weeks, I thought it was due to problems with FMOD licensing. I was no longer sure whether the mod would be updated to 1.37 at all. There were no official informations about it. Just some events wile we were waiting for the update. I hope that if there are any future delays in updates, information will be announced much earlier. If a passenger on a train e.g. knows why the train is not moving, it's also much calmer than when it hears nothing at all.

These are great news, we understand the complexity of the task on hand. We are confident that you are doing all that is humanly possible, based on your current resources, to get the mod ready. Keep up the good work...

I'll be attempting to make 'Operation Genoa Bridge' into a stand alone mod.

It won't be exactly the same, as no connection to WoT ( External Contracts or rewards), but I'll make a list of what trailers should go in/out of the two sites.

Figured someone would want to play it after the fact.
