Verify your local game files.

Please specify the error in the bug section when its persistent. Saying an error is too unspecified for us to start looking. Also, the mod had been updated for 1.55, see changelog for that.

can we get an update for 1.55 get an error for venture company

this is a post from Juli 8 on your site (Get Ready for Iowa: Mod Update Arrives Thursday!} what date does it drop. my game is fully 1.55 but for some reason when i use this it kicks me out the game Randomly, Mostly when you are close to your destination, Also i would like to know what the best spot is in the load order, because i don't use only this mod. Thanks in advance for some clear answers.

I just wanted to say that I've been playing with your Mod for several hours now, and I think it's the best version of "Real Companies" I've used to date, and I've tried most of them.

From Billboards to Trailers, and Buildings to Gas Stations, the feel of immersions is just awesome.

Thanks for being a part of our Modding Community.🏆👍

As a Consumer Protection & Copyright attorney, it's not necessary for that kind of protection for the Free Modding Community.

I'm not going to draw this into a lengthy legalese text, but here are the facts:

1. The Mod Author doesn't work for the game Developers/Publishers (Very Important}.
2. Falls under the "Fair Usage Act" (Most Important}.
3. The "Steam Workshop" has a Disclaimer protecting Mod Authors (The Dispute would have to be filed against Steam/Valve, not the Author.

Copyright Lawsuits have been filed many times in the early days against the "FREE" Modding Community (Cities Skylines, Grand Theft Auto & Rig 'N' Roll), and none were successful.

Thnx, we will take a look at it.

yeah that's why i said, work on it. That thing holds no legal grounds, nor doesn't specify any approved and acknowledged approval for use of corresponding items.

Something along the line of "used with explicit permission" and such good stuff holds a lot more weight. Especially when that permission is provided in writing and approved by the owners of such property.

Just saying.

We have a disclaimer above, on this page.

Just a little heads-up: work on your disclaimer.

Out of curiosity I went through a couple of these brands and in every single one they explicit ly state "confirmed and acknowledged use of logos, brand names, trademark items, copyrighted items and representation".

If any of those big wigs catch wind of this, you're looking at massive lawsuits.

Thnx for the confirmation. I just did 5 trips in Iowa and haven't seen it anymore. Also nof dx11 errors anymore in console

I went back to the area around the truck stops in Sioux City and saw no more bluish glowing anywhere.

Not till after summer, due to the lack of time the upcoming months

Are you guys going to add the Iowa 80 to the game?

Make sure Steam downloaded the latest version, 1.04.09. Before posting a bugreport.

Thank yo so much for working to keep this mod working, I can only imagine how much work goes into this!

Error in the view display see picture in Iowa. https://gyazo.com/28dffd0b279a001cf97054f78b9e6c39

thank's a lot for your work !!!

We just released a new patch (1.04.09) which seems to fix all bugs, the blue squares, missing totempoles and dx11 console errors. We checked it at several known bug locations and they are all gone. All issues where caused by 3 textfiles which were given an additional 2 letters in their effectline by SCS , with in either Iowa or 1.55 release.

If the bugs are still there, don't hesitate to report. All reports combined really helped us figuring this out in just a few days.

Further we still have the fastfood shopmodels removed but we have added back the new companies that came with Iowa.

thx for the fix

The mod has just been set back to version 1.04.05, the last version before 1.55. As in 1.55 there seems to be an issue with a material file regarding metal textures.

I haven't been able to check but hopefully this also fixes the issue with the blue squares. I hope to have a little time tonight to locate the file causing the errors and fire up the game to check things myself.

Edit: this seems to fix everything except the missing totem poles. The replaced Iowa companies are not included in the mod at this moment. I hope to add them back asap

Hello guys, a lot of gas stations around the entire map are missing the poles that holds the signs, some signs floating with ladder some without, i have noticed it all across the map, most truck stops are Chevron, Flying and Loves, is it a bug or something we need to report ?
Greetings

you guys really need to read the comments before continually spamming the same stuff over and over.

Yes, the blue/red light is still an issue, but it really isnt a big deal , re-installed the update mod but it was the bloinking'/flashing light was present at the gas stations I visited. Not overlyu dramatic but I thought to let you AUTHOR know..

Hi, I am having issues with the blue reflection problem. My truck and other AI vehicles, as well as buildings, have this blue reflection all over them. I also had a problem with a purple reflection. If you disable this mod, the problem goes away. I am on version 1.54 of ATS. I unsubscribed and resubscribed, but the problem remains
cheers

It seems the blue bug is more persistent then expected. Somehow one materialfile is causing both the blue bug as the console errors as the missing poles on totems. Since there are thousands of them in the mod its takes time, even when we have an idea where to look.

We will roll back to the last pre-Iowa version of the mod for now as that seems the easiest fix for the moment.

I hope to be able to that later on today, mondaynight the latest.

Sorry for the inconvenience guys!

For the moment, I run a load or two, then exit the game, and start it again. If I run too long on ATS, it crashes. Just FYI. I saw the update note below. It will be found when it gets found. Good luck with it!

Love seeing the company I work for, Titan Machinery, in the game! However, Titan is not a John Deere dealer, and never has been. You are correct about New, Holland, but Titan is primarily a Case IH dealer.

Are you guys planning on changing the greatest SCS truck stop to Iowa 80?

Excellent Mod. Better than all the old ones I use to use. 🏆👍

known bug with poles on huge toten signs

I had an error with a Love's truckstop in Utah: the top of the sign and ladder was visible, but the pole was not. Keep up the great work!

love this mod, thanks much for your hard work on a fix

Hey MLH, I love the mod, I just have one "Complaint" I lived on the road for 5 years of my life with my dad, and we always stopped at loves truck stops, it seems in your mod most loves are shown as shell, its not the biggest issue in the world, just kinda bugs me

Thanks for the latest. Cuts the dx11 errors way down.

I’m fine with the gas stations and truck stops. That blue bug is showing near fastfoods like Domino’s Pizza, KFC, McDonalds and Starbucks in my game. Currently confirmed in Texas, Iowa, Missouri.

Yeah I'm getting some visual bugs at the gas station of Phoenix, green blue lights and distorted black red models.

I assume this what you'll are talking about? I see Floating Chevron signs without the support poles now (replaces default ARON gas stations) This is my essential mod for realism. No rush on a fix I just notice it was new bug since IOWA released.

Before and after the recent update I get the blue flashes at/near truck stops. It was really bad near the big truck stop in Sioux City, IA. I also thought I saw a red flash at the car fuel pumps at the truck stop in Waterloo but that could have been something else.

The blue bug seems to happen near truck stops/gas stations for the most part, probably something to do with them.

It never caused on vevicles, it happens on buildings. Can you please provide an exact location of your issue?

Without it a report like this is not helpfull to us at all. Many thanks in advance

Thanks for the hard work on this. Absolute necessity of a mod! Very much appreciate the efforts. Good luck with the bug hunts.

We just released a patch which fixes most console errors, but not all. Also the blue squares are fixed by removing some content.

We are still looking for the exact cause of these and the remaining errors. We have a pretty good idea where to look for but time is limited these days. We release another patch for the remaining issues as soon as possible.

Until the issue with the new version is solved, I manually went back to the former v4.01.06
=> works flawless and without any visual problems.
However the aforementioned DX11 errors existed already there but so far don't seem to cause any severe issues or crashes.

Thanks you for tackling the issues Iowa seems to have brought up. I only play in VR and the artifacts that appeared when attempting to try Iowa had me concerned, I am glad it's being dealt with swittly. I don't even know what the Default companies even are as I have always used this mod to really make ATS and ETS feel authentic.
Thanks for your continuing hard work!

We are aware of it, we are investigating and looking for a fix. All these errors have the same source, are related and came with update 1.55.

We release a patch saturdaynight by removing some content. That will fix most console errors and blue squares that appear sometimes. Time won't let us do it sooner. A permanent solution, with replacing the removed content, will take time. Probably over the summer.

Thank you all for reporting! We appreciate your effort and hope for your patience and understanding for this.

Wow, a new update related to Iowa DLC was so fast.

Thanks for update!

The mod got updated to version 4.01.07. which adds some new companies for Iowa DLC. See changelog for all changes.

Most likely Steam updated your mod and not the one of the convoy host. Don't blame us for updating. You get the message because the convoyhost started the game without verifying they are on the latest version of their mods.

@markg82722 As Legonair said, this is a mod with textures and 3d-Models. If it has to be put in a category, I would say graphics would suit best.

Yeah i know im kinda too early xD, thanks anyways for the good work.
