Here's a brief list I am typing out as I watch for my FB group:

Trailer Ownership Confirmed for next build.
Unlicensed trailers will get customisation options and a general update to look better.

Range T/MAN are pretty much done, it's all the legal stuff they need to wrap up. We kinda knew that but people do like to ask the same questions over and over lol.

They are looking at the end of the year to switch from DX9 to DX11.

The next map DLC (after Baltics) will NOT be Spain/Portugal.

Scania 2016 is in AI in the pre-made videos so should be coming soon.

A few new trailers being seen as well as the Krone DLC ones.

Additional info on ownership of trailers: This will come first, followed over time by new chassis variations etc.

There is another tuning pack in the works (brand not mentioned).

Seasons: It's on their wishlist but they aren't working on it at this time. Could be a couple of years.

In relation to the copyright thing I mentioned earlier in the week, if it meant SCS had to check all mods they would just disable the ability to use mods in the game.

Pavel confirmed that any old areas that are updated will ALWAYS be for free. He doesn't believe it would be morally appropriate to charge for rebuilding old areas.

1.32 looks to be coming late summer. Nemiro said September, but Pavel quickly shot him down with not wanting to speculate.

Thanks a lot for this! The upcoming stuff sounds gorgeous and the future of ETS2 looks bright & shiny^^.

Thanks for the info.

I just hope that the dumb EU rules don't end up killing off modding in this game...

[Lone Wolf]

Is there some kind of link for this info. So we can all see it as well?

If that really will happen then it could get funny around here with all the people who might not have a PC with DX11 support. (if they don't let a dx9 fallback in it which wont use new features of course)

Shouldn't be a problem, much like other games that offer the option for DX12 for those rigs that are able to run that. But even if not and as much as hate to be that guy... its 2018, please. There is simply the point where you are sensible about something which is perfectly fine, and then there is the point where you are way beyond that and halting progess just because a minority still runs rigs that belong into a museum. And a rig that, even today, is still unable to run DX11 is most definetly such a piece.

DX11 is supported on Vista and higher. Vista came out 11 years ago. Microsoft stopped supporting XP 4 years ago. I support backwards compatability but there is a point where you must move on.

Thank you sir.

Backwards compatibility isn't the reason I'm on Windows 7. I'm on it because it works. I've not had any reason to upgrade. I've used Windows 10 on this PC, and I've had it dual-booted with Windows 7 since the PC was built. I always ended up favouring the Windows 7 partition simply because it ran better on brand new hardware. Even when support is dropped for Windows 7, I'll probably still be on it or at least use it most of the time except where a program can't run on it.

For everything else, there's my laptop which happily runs Windows 10 because I can't be bothered to back anything up to downgrade it. I'm excited for Dx11 in ETS2/ATS and that's all that matters. The sensible thing to do is continue to use what works. Killing it off is unreasonable when so many use such a reliable system. It's the same reason I prefer older vehicles. It might spend more time with me when my hands are dirty, but it'll be in my hands a lot longer.

this might offer better peformance on certain graphic cards.

If they do switch to DX11, what will be the main impact?

SCS have said multiple times that when they move to DX11, DX9 will not be supported. That's why they have taken so long to really push on with it, there's still 2% of players using old hardware.

But I am really looking forward to the shift, because it could also mean they will put the legacy game to bed so they can focus all their attention on the easier to maintain Steam builds.

Steam Stream should add the standard Feature for people havent time to see stream live, see it when they have the time.

And it will obviously get funny in here at beginning of 2019 when steam wont support Win XP & Vista anymore too.

if ppl computers dont have dx11 support in 2018 then its most likely a good idea to upgrade lol dx11 is already becoming out dated

Didn't they also mention that the germany rebuild thing will take several patches to complete?

They wrote that in the blogpost about it....so that is something everyone should already know.

A lot of people are still using a 32bit OS without a need as 64bit capable hardware should be out for 10 years (+a few years).........and most of them only would have to download the correct iso to "upgrade" the version...


And that dx11 becomes outdated......for that there would have to be more than the MS games which use dx12 out there.......^^
