Euro Truck Simulator 2 Update 1.23 in Open Beta Now!
We are happy to announce that open beta of Update 1.23 for Euro Truck Simulator 2 is now available on Steam.
We are bringing a lot of changes in the core game; you will find a condensed change-log at the bottom of this blog post. Let us introduce the major additions with more detail:
• Steam Workshop
Here's a short how-to on downloading and activating mods from Steam Workshop:
- Launch the game, go to the "Mod Manager" screen, and click on the "Steam Workshop" button in the top part of the window. The Steam in-game browser will appear and you will see the game's Steam workshop page.
- Go to "Items", select a mod which is interesting for you, and click on the green subscribe [+] button. Steam will automatically download the mod. When it is ready, you will see the mod in Mod Manager.
- Double click on the mod to activate it and then click on the "Confirm Changes" button in the bottom part of Mod Manager,
- Load your profile and try your mod. (note: pay attention to mod loading priority to avoid mod incompatibilities)
We have also prepared a Wiki with full SCS Steam Workshop Uploader documentation and modding tutorials where you can find guidance how to use our tools for mod creation.
Please note that at the moment we do not include support for map mods in the Uploader, this will come later but it requires more work on sanitization of all the data making up the map.
