Visual damage
please all i want is some kind of ding or sratch to happen when i crash into stuff .... nothing complex just maybe a few paint scratches or body dings like in Hard Truck 2 (win 98) or some body scuff like in Midtown Madness 1 and 2 ... something simple like that would be nice for all vehicals ... even if its just texture based damage(visualy) ... it would be that much more realistic otherwise THIS GAME IS AWESOME
EDIT: here is some photos of what i want
Texture damage similer to http://i.imgur.com/ixqxsbB.png
Body damage similar to http://ponyguy456.deviantart.com/art/Usaracer-2015-02-21-08-19-51-05-515511763 and http://ponyguy456.deviantart.com/art/Usaracer-2015-02-21-08-19-54-95-515512162
EDITv2: the companies would only revoke licenses IF the game shows that its unsafe to drive for the one drivng I.E. the cab gets smashed badly or the truck gets horribly mangled to the point that it cannot be recognised

why you say that

I am curious why SCS never implemented any damage modeling in ETS2.

Because Prism3D, the engine powering the game, which is 10 year old, was never meant to do that and it would need a few years to adapt it / transform it. SCS is not Ubisoft or EA, they don't have enough money to create a new game engine from scratch.

There wasn't any visual damages when they didn't have the licenses and that agreement is, so far, an urban legend. That is one of the most credible cause but still a legend.

Engrish is not a valid language. Also, as I barely understood what you said, I'm gonna go with false, you're wrong.

Its a truck simulator not a accident sim live with it there is not gonna be visual damage dont u think its obvious they didnt have it when they didnt have licenses?...beacuse they were getting the aggreements working on getting it from Volvo,Scania and etc after all its gonna take a looooooooooooong time to add visual damage to get it all functioning and working properly
i hate it when you guys say that "Its a truck simulator not a accident sim" i am not asking for an accident sim ... if i wanted that i would play BeamNG all i would like is some minor scratches and or some visual dings .... conan if you cant figure out what texture based damage is compared to body damage im sad for you .... but here is a pic of that http://i.imgur.com/ixqxsbB.png and here is a pic of simple body damage http://ponyguy456.deviantart.com/art/Usaracer-2015-02-21-08-19-54-95-515512162 and now from the back http://ponyguy456.deviantart.com/art/Usaracer-2015-02-21-08-19-51-05-515511763 ... so you see im not asking for total deformation .... just simple dings and scratches and this would not add much of anything to the load on the Cpu and the Gpu as its simple

@Deathman,
I know what you mean. IF it can be done, it wouldn't be such a bad thing. An over-heating radiator, cracked windshield, busted headlights, dented fenders, etc.

I mean if we can knock over lampposts, traffic signs, and such, a bit of collateral damage would just add to the immersion of the game.

I don't think this would have an effect on a license agreement, unless I had one in hand.

Can someone close this post? its a waste of space in the forums ....
dude .... you are talkin out yer A.S.S. ... that guy Bob ..... he knows whats up ... i know for a FACT that he is right in saying that simple damage like this would not break any agreement .... the only way for damage to break an agreement is if it shows that these trucks are unsafe to drive for the driver (the cab gets so deformed that the driver would die) and im not asking for that .... by the way Conan ... did you even look at my links ... because i know bob did all they are is pictures of two games Midtown madness 2 and Police Chase also the Police chase pics may have smoke from the engine but im not asking for that

haters gonna hate, you should simply ignore them. Its kinda obvious when the same hardcore fans reply to almost everything with "its a sim....what did you expect?"

I am missing a damage model as well and if only to simulate wear and tear on ,y equipment making me WANT to find a repair station. Heck I d settle with dirt and dust :)

The reason given in the past "the manufacturers didnt agree to a damage model becuase they feared bad rep" was logical to me and I accept it. I am with you tho that the game would be SUPERIOR with it. I dont think we ll ever see it in ETS2 but maybe if enough people would like to have such a feature it ll happen in future games.

In this instance, Conan is 100% right. The real world companies allow their logos and trucks to be in the game but would NEVER allow those vehicles to exhibit physical damage. It will never happen (read that twice). As with the reason why any and ALL F1 games never show damage apart form a missing wheel. The most any player will ever see is a mod that shows dirt.
have a nice day

Unless a Dev from SCS steps in, and let's us know about the license agreement as to what it says for damage, it's only an assumption, probably as much as an assumption I made stating it wouldn't have an effect.

And do you see a real manufacterer's logo clearly present in any of those shots? sigh. really keep showing grainy pictures of wrecked generic vehicles if it suits you.
