We’re working simultaneously on both ATS and ETS2. The same game engine allows us to make changes to both games in parallel, so some improvements to the game may be familiar to you from the previous blog post about the ETS2 open beta. Among the features and fixes common to both games, you can find a lot of improvements solely for ATS, which we've been working on since the release of the game last month.
The main features included in the open beta are (as in ETS2) Steam Workshop, SCS Workshop Uploader app and Ultimate Wheel Customization. We described them with depth in the previous blogpost.
More Features and Improvements
Here's is log of the additional fixes and improvements that went into this update:
MAIN FEATURES
- Steam Workshop

Hi SCS,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update including some much needed improvements. Great game just got better.
Steve in Colorado
Notice all the positive comments to SCS come from usernames "unknown"
DeleteI imagine they're all originated in Prague..
Wrong! As per my handle, I'm in the USA (Colorado)
DeleteI'm just too lazy to create a logon username ;-)
But I do notice that a lot of people are here purely to bash the game. My question: If you do not enjoy playing the game, then why bother? Thanks
Steve
I could post a comment saying I was Bob from Australia, doesn't mean I couldn't be an SCS employee in Prague.
DeleteThe game doesn't need much bashing, it's self evident how crap it is...
Nice. Thanks SCS
ReplyDeleteThanks. Good update.
ReplyDeleteBut I have one note.
As the time passes, you look so amateur ???
Spam much ??
Deletehopefully this beta works as the ETS2 1.23 beta doesnt
ReplyDeleteEts 1.23 beta works fine. If your game crashes it's not the beta.
DeleteIf the beta crashes then go down to 1.22 and remove all custom rims and tires on your trucks EVEN those that are driven by the AI drivers. After you have done that remove the mod and go up to the beta again
DeleteWhens the French DLC ready.
ReplyDeleteLast post was amazing' but please scs.. Hungarian paintjob :)
ReplyDeleteSlovakian first!
DeleteBoth! ;)
DeleteNICE! Another step closer to the Release!
ReplyDeleteСпасибо вам SCS Software!!!!
ReplyDeleteyay, custom wheel nuts. Just the game enhancing content that's going to keep players interested until more states become available in a few years (which at the going rate it's going to be...).
ReplyDeleteVivement le dlc Arizona
ReplyDeleteThX SCS! You are the best forever!
ReplyDeleteThe stop signs at the red light always bugged me. Rules here in NA are at a red light you must come to complete stop even when turning right, the stop signs were just not needed.

ReplyDeleteHere in Europe when both signs and traffic lights exist, traffic lights overule.
DeleteWhen these traffic lights are off (for some reason), vertical signs rule. Meaning if you come to a crossing, who has the stop sign, stops.
Всего одна ступица, и нет хромированных дисков, халтурно SCS, халтурно!
ReplyDeleteLeft turn traffic signal = much needed....thanks!!
ReplyDeleteThis is also needed for ETS 2. Every crossroad with 4 + 4 lines should have it!
DeleteBetter to say, i hope SCS is finally going to add different traffic light for turning left and different for going straight.
DeleteLooks good SCS, nice touch with the Dodge Ram in the traffic too!
ReplyDeleteThank you SCS.
ReplyDeletegood
ReplyDeleteIt's clear that SCS is listening to what the players have to say. All these fixed improvements are what players suggested. Thank you SCS for taking the time to listen! Y'all are the best!
ReplyDeleteNo they aren't...the biggest problem with ATS, and the main reason it's a boring game, is the map size and time scaling.
DeleteUnless they can change that, the game will never be any good.
Yes, they are listening in one ear and out the other. Listening is not all. There should be changes made but we can write and write and write... What else left us?
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteListen or point of interest? Like Steam Workshop Right? Promote mods for game because this game cant be live without that.
DeleteIf they do listen what players says... Just meh
All those changes has been suggested before 3 years (for ETS)
Guys, is it compatible with modded trucks? Specially the wheels? I am affraid game will crash with modded wheels, does anyone tried already?
ReplyDeleteI cant get the game even to load when i put it beta
ReplyDeleteAnd you think that's going to make a crap game any better?
ReplyDeleteThink again.!
wow hater
DeleteYes, I hate ATS..nearly 3 years waiting, then get a miniature copy of ETS2...hate it like no other game I've ever played.
DeleteWell F**k off! It really is that simple..
DeleteNow will come the idiots, haters in the SCS SOFTWARE blog.
ReplyDeleteGreat job scs software!
Nice job SCS!
ReplyDeleteYou were listening and you corrected things that weren't right. And you even added a few little things and some really striking stuff. That's pretty much everything a new update should do.
Thank you SCS! I just love ATS and it's great to see its development
My wishlist's a little shorter now.
Up next Pete 389 and the VNL ;)

ReplyDeleteDear SCS, please add/keep red hubs. The black rims don't look as good with the standard black hubs available in the beta as they do with the red hubs currently available in the current release version of the game. Also, please keep the Aero hub cover for the front wheels.
ReplyDeleteP.S: I wish for airhorns at some point.
You got Mercedes license in 2013, but you gave us the Mercedes at 2015.
ReplyDeleteThis tell me everything how this game is gonna be developed in future
2 years making a single truck is...............
DeleteHye Xenforo you are right, but what can we do? Nothing, because our arguments not convinced SCS at all. They have their own policy, which does not contain major changes in the games. It will be only cosmetics updates and map DLCs, not more. Rigid trucks was announced 1,5 year ago. It is really so hard to implement? Is there any moder who can write about complexity of the project? I don't want to believe that it must be implemented so long. Unless, it is not at all in the game? Rigids are alive?
DeleteYou need to fix the arcade truck physic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI complete agree with member above me YOU ARE FUCKING AMATEURS
SCS, Could you please BAN Akula forever??? WE do not want to read his stupid comments!!!
ReplyDeleteHey, nice catch with the left turn green lights! :) Now this is one of those things that really make ATS closer to reality! Now, if you don't mind suggesting this again, i would really appreciate, in the same spirit of reality, change the brakes sound from existing one imported from ETS2 to real american truck brake sounds (remember you did use them in American long haul and the original ETS)
ReplyDeleteHey you should add more realistic physics like when driving over a speed bumb the trailer should bounce a bit to give that sense of weight. I don't know just a suggestion. Thanks
ReplyDeleteATS - the ETS2 shrinked and miniaturized .
ReplyDeleteATS - or how to make 2 states (20 cities) and 2 trucks in 3 years !!!!!
ATS - the same lacking-feature game with different skin (just 5% better graphiscs - NOT ENOUGH !!!)
ATS - more marketing amd big words ...than game
YOU ARE TOO SLOW !!!!! WAKE UP !!!
What about Tandems, Mercedes and DAF in AI, promised Tires DLC (Michelin)?
What about the poor quality model of old trucks, especially MAN and DAF ???? (low poly in essential parts, missing things, texture instead model)
The ROUTE Advisor with GPS frame should dissapear.....and a second variation should appear...to the right bottom(left bootom uk) of the screen, just the 2 bars with icons & INFOS, without map.
Foglights ?
Cabin illumination?
Are you at least working @ DX11 implementation for ATS ?
Will we see this year Arizona, Peterbild 389, France and Renault ?
ETS2
Deleteteam working on police cars for 10 countries
paintjobs with Magyar, Turkish and Holand theme in works
Most copies sold in Germany, second US, third France. Followed by UK, Scandinavia, Canada, Netherlands, Turkey, Brazil. Czech republic around 20th place
work on custom trailers - licence for brand Schwarzmüller already acquired
ATS
still not decided whether to go realistic or not regarding cabin accesories
no paid skins planned at the moment
4 trucks fully built. Next to 3 already released, 4th one is Peterbilt 389 which is coming soon as next truck
plan to have at least one or two trucks from each brand - these will be for free; specials such as 10 wheelers or tow trucks will be paid dlc
plan is to cover whole USA, also Canada and Mexico
work on route from west coast to east coast (Texas)
as soon as possible, start work on direction to Seattle (because of Kenworth factory)
probably (still not decided) each country sold as separate DLC, bundles of more states (east coast, west coast) very probable
around 300 cities when map is finished
snow when we will get to north close to Canada
dynamic weather is on wishlist at the moment, not easy to implement
possibly special events in meantime with designated locations having snow
multiplayer is plan for the future; one of polish (now) ex-modders joined SCS to work on this game
Misc.
console versions of the game planned but not coming out this year for sure
mobile version unlikely; mostly because of physics
planning to include smaller vehicles, trying to acquire licences ets.
ECS (euro coach simulator)
still in works
comes as paid dlc to ETS2
3 coaches already finished (including interior and sounds), still waiting for licences to be solved
u are very ignorant...
TimeNSpeed and you are working in SCS? Because what is in plans it means is not made. Rigids trucks 1,5 year are not developed yet. Please don't write about plans, write about facts!
DeleteWhere is newsletter? I have only receved one. What are the plans of SCS till 2016? I don't want to know it from TimeNSpeed or EvgenKo423, I want to know itfrom SCS.
Deletewow Where do you got this evidence??
DeleteAnd what u mean police car in ETS? Currently there not exist a police cars.
Whole USA in next ten years ofc..
When new Trucks are comming? Peterbilt 389? Volvo?
ReplyDeleteHows the weighbridge update work?? Is it just a reading of the weight or can you get fined for carrying more??
ReplyDeleteThanks
