My game keeps crashing

[majaba müllschwanz]

I start the game drive like 2-3 mins and the game crashes.... can somebody help me.

[Wolfgang]

Using any mods?

[majaba müllschwanz]

yeah i am @wolfgang but in logs it says its something "promods" related but i dont have any promods installed

[Wolfgang]

Can you reproduce it on a vanilla profile (no mods ever in it)?
Also, since mods can leave traces behind (and map mods are most prone to it) even when you remove them.

Verify your game files. You can do this by doing a right-click on the game in your Steam Library and going to "Properties". There you go to "Local files" and there should be the option to verify your files. This will fix any missing or corrupt game files.

Go to "C:\Users\*your username*\Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2" after a crash.
Open "game.log.txt" (NOT game.crash.txt), in Notepad or other text editor.
Copy it all, then post it tohttp://pastebin.com (split if too big) as a guest.
Post the link to that page here.
If pastebin is not available in your country you can use rentry.co and post that page link here.
On a Mac the Euro Truck Simulator 2 folder is in your Library and there in the Application Support. On Linux the American Truck Simulator folder is in the .local and there in the share.
On pastebin you paste the whole of your game.log.txt. Click on "Create new paste" at the end of the page. If your game.log file is too big it says it can't do it. In this case split the game.log in half or multiple parts, and post them all here. If everything works you select the content of the address bar, copy it and post it here as a new comment.

Start a new, unmodded, vanilla profile with a name like "test profile" (you can have as many as you want without affecting your normal profile) and test the game.

If it does not crash, it's most likely your mods causing the problem. You need to test and check every mod individually and together to see which one is at at fault in the new test profile.

when log says promods, then there is promods... Plz post your log in complete on pastebin

I had a similar problem. It happened when "Sunshifts" was turned on.
Even though my computer was quite powerful, turning on this feature invariably caused a crash.

A lot of development going on these days in the ETS2 arena. Many having issues because of mods not keeping up. I started over with a vanilla profile and I have not had a single issue since. Listen to Wolfgang and mojo. They know what they are talking about. :-)

Well seems you had once promods in this profile and had garages in cities that dont exist anymore:

00:03:16.572 : <ERROR> Garage spawn point not found! (reykjavik)
00:03:16.572 : <ERROR> Garage spawn point not found! (keflavik)
00:03:16.573 : <ERROR> Garage spawn point not found! (kirkenes)

Sooo I think the only solution is to start a new profile - this one is broken.

So much to not having any ProMods installed:

00:02:32.906 : [mods] Active workshop mod ID 2637561037 (name: ProMods 2.72 Convoy Mode Support, version: 2.72, author: ProMods Team)

There is a reason why I specifically asked to reproduce it on a vanilla profile.

<ERROR> [unit] File '<D:/steam/steamapps/common/Euro Truck Simulator 2/dlc_balkan_e.scs | >/def/country/romania/traffic.dlc_balkan_e.sii'

Failed to open file '/def/vehicle/trailer_owned/tmp.caravan/data.sii'

Failed to load model descriptor (.pmd) or model geometry (.pmg) for '/vehicle/ai/promods/road/skoda_octavia_iii/ai_police.pmg'

those are the main errors which lead to a crash. balkan has errors, maybe do a file integrity check, and you maybe used a promods add on and removing it did go wrong. you can enable promods, then your game will be alright again. just wait for promods to update or downgrade your ETS2 to promods level.

OP is not using Promods except for that one mod from the Workshop for Convoy support, so that one is a definite "remove". No need to have that mod active when you're not using the Promods map.

The Skoda and caravan errors are because OP used this profile in TruckersMP where they have mods for those bundled into their install, and now in single-player those mods are missing and so the owned truck and trailer are causing a crash.
