Is promods worth it?

[Yurik_]

Is this mod worth attention?
And another question is cities from original dlc looks different in promods???
And which map from promods to download? Europe? There is more of them but no descriptions on website. Once i click on them there is just installation instructions

[Rivaldman]

1) Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
2) Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
3) Europe first, after you know how it works. Then you can install Middle East and Great Steppe

[Underscore_101_3]

Well, it's free so it's only costing you download time.

It is and isn't. With the rate stuff get's updated, then waiting for it to be updated so can use it again.

But does cities from original dlc's and promods looks same or different?

You have a total of 3 questions, which I think I have answered them all.

For your concern, the answer for 2) is an indisputable yes (cities that promods rework will look different from the game DLC). But you can't tell all cities, because you don't know exactly what cities promods have modified.

[Silverbiker]

Yes to all.
I have been using ProMods for about 5 years now.
Look at London to base map and it is so different, in fact they have reworked the UK plus inc Ireland.
They have added towns and cities in addition to the base game (thinking of UK in particular)
PM London:

I just use the base map as there are so many miles of road to explore on that it will last you forever IMO especially after game updates and DLC as they add their roads to it as the same time.
For a £1 it one hell of a bargain.
Create a different profile, download the free version and run it. Won't cost you a penny, but it might take a while to d/l depending on your ISP.

For the money you get A LOT! (It is freeware)

However you need to own all map DLCs from SCS.

ProMods expands where SCS not (yet) covers. it also details the area already covered. Generally it is more difficult to drive in PM. It seems to be more narrow roundabouts, harder-to-reach drop-off spots and so on.

If it is worth it? Up to YOU and what YOU want.

I don't mind supporting promods for a cup of coffee. But there's always a free way to download. Maybe we just let people choose?

Yes. But another question to be asked if it's worth the time you have to wait to play with, as every the game map is updated, it must be updated too. So you have to play without it for a while anyway, or don't play the game at all.

By road network yes. By look not much. They use the same existing vanilla assets.

(And the mod basically adds road you wouldn't be allowed to go on a semi/lorry in real life, it's just an artistic license)

Others may answer this one better. I stopped using it some time ago, due to the reason on my first answer.

Correction:
You can also roll the game back to the ETS2 version Promod still be working
and wait for Promod is updated to the newest version of ETS2

[Rivaldman]

Regarding the update interval, you have no loss at all.

1) You play with promods.
2) Game updates, promods no longer works
3) You remove promods, play the vanilla game or stay in the previous game version for promods
4) Promods updates, you get promods back to the game

You can always play the game with or without doing 4).

[Aspen Ridge]

Yes...for some. It is definitely a great addition to the base map....but for me I don't use it as I have recently went to all Vanilla profiles for both ETS2 and ATS. It's enough for me and I don't have to worry about updates or broken mods crashing my game.

Addition:
See if keep disabling the mod or reversing game version worth the work.

I have thinked, sometime ago, to install promods only for a profile, only driving in Spain and Portugal but after reading here and there, the veredict was NO. And remain as before always full standard game without problems, crashes and headaches.

Promods is awesome! But these days I'm too lazy and have too little time... it's is a bit of a pain to get it to play where after the updates come, Play most Multiplayer
