What will be new for the ETS2 1.29 update?

[MaximB]

So ATS will have 1.29 update with loads of new stuff,
But what will be new for the ETS2 1.29 update? (if anything)

[Xyzan]

I guess most of the stuff will be similar, that is new navigation, new editing tools, strobe lights etc. I would not expect additional trailers though

[MaximB]

the ATS update will have several new roads, trailers and road events...so I've heard.
So dunno what "most of the stuff" is...

ATS got 600 miles of new roads.
Will ETS2 get the same?
CURIOUS!

DX11 support would be nice

1.29? Well, the new scania, Italia DLC, "Special Transport" DLC... those could might be in the next big update. Most likely Italia DLC will come with 1.29

ETS 1.29 have to break out the popcorn and cold drink to watch choas that will result. They made changes that could break some mods enjoy :)

You can see only the map, but there is many, many more under the hood. So, the rest of stuff is:
- Complete overhaul of navigation algorithms (direction aware, multiple modes)
- Environmental lighting rebalance
- Time zones support (will be handy in the future!)
- reworked/new police cars (including strobe lights) (Probably strobes only, as they will be needed to Special transport)
- Basic engine and transmission info in quick job truck tooltip
- AI traffic improvements
- Many many hundreds of small map bug fixes - visual glitches, and speed limits

Just check the blog for this update for ATS:

1.28 broke already some mods.. thats why good authors update their mods :)

1.29 will most probably brake all map and traffic mods due to changes

[SpetS]

well, I hope they FIX the roads that suddenly become an exit... ¬¬

I don't think so, but they will fix the navigation to show you earlier, that you have to change line - in ats 1.29 there is such a feature, so hopefully it will be in ETS as well. This is not ideal sollution, but for sure will help with those silly exits

ATS 1.29 broke all my mods, AI traffic, AI packs, graphics mod. Only 2 mods escaped the massacre, sounds and fines The nav doesn't seem fixed, it still makes strange decisions but now, there is arrows on the path. And I didn't see AI improvements either (although, I never had many of the most common issue like crashing in my side and sudden braking)

personally, I got those issues in ets2, but can't remember to get them in ATS (not saying they're not in ATS aswell, haven't played much in murica)

ATS 1.29 is still in Beta, so the Update isn't finished yet. And with every update you have to count that Mods will break. That's the Risk of using mods.

[PERO]

Game features will be similar to ATS ones, plus, I believe we`ll be getting the new Scanias
