One of the images shows the play of light and shadow in the cabin. As everything in the world and the truck itself can cash shadows on everything else, the level of immersion behind the wheel is greatly increased compared to our previous games.

Working on a presentation movie
We are now preparing a short presentation movie that we plan to show next week on our trip to Södertälje, Sweden. We will post the movie clip on SCS Software's YouTube channel once it's ready for you to enjoy, but for now, here are at least a few teaser snapshots from the video.

Good job. I'm looking forward to that movie.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Please also dont forget to work on sounds, it's (second) most inportant element in game, and in your previous games it wasnt so well. It needs turbo and its sound, retarder and its sound, and I would love to have ability to buy tuneable horns!!! :) I believe this game will meet my exceptions.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
Beautifull SCS
ReplyDeleteI love this functional front mirror! Yes, sounds is very important, please, works on sounds :)). And air hoses and electric cables, where are they?:(
ReplyDeleteAwesome job SCS. The shadows in the cabin almost look real.
ReplyDeleteHello Scs Software
ReplyDeleteArranges the 2nd axis is turning less than 1 ° axis
Well done SCS!
ReplyDeleteI Hope the middle shaft is going to raise and lower =D
Well done SCS!
ReplyDeleteI hope that the middle axis is going to raise and lower =D
could you put the wipers' speed? be 30sec or 1 for 5 seconds
ReplyDeletenice pics! now, only one thing: double trailers, or trailer system as Extreme Trucker 2
ReplyDeleteWow! Just wow! I'm so excited that I can't find proper words.
ReplyDeleteThere's only one thing that vitiate delight for me: is really necessary to use buildings we know from first ETS? I.e. that one on first picture, behind the tree - sincerely I hate these buildings after years of meeting them in every city of ETS and GTS. :-D I hope large set of new buildings is prepared and we meet those old ones more rarely.
Still, awesome pics. Level of detail is incredible and those shadows and everything... can't wait for that mentioned video. ;-)
Smekám pánové, jen tak dál.
ReplyDeleteGood Job. Maybe Show ride in rain
ReplyDeleteWOW SCS !!! That looked cool :) but you can take photos in more graphic options (anti-aliasing, more resolution) I can not wait for ETS 2 !!! :) Very Good Job :)
ReplyDeleteYes..6x2...6x2...but no double funktions ? Missy.
ReplyDeleteMagnifique, j'espère qu'on pourra caché le réservoire
ReplyDeleteSo,the HDR is not implemented yet?I know it's not that important, but if you've mentioned it.Anyways it looks nice.Personally I'd rather not see these old trees, roads and textures in final game:)Just my two cents:)
ReplyDeleteNice effects of light and shadow great work guys
ReplyDeleteAmazing pics. Looking forward to the release so much.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the outstanding work SCS Software team.
AWSOME the scania looks great. can't wait till the game comes out. when might that be?
ReplyDeleteAwsome work SCS !!!!!!
Can't wait to see that movie :)
ReplyDeleteFANTASTICO ! ! !
ReplyDeleteWhen is the game expected to launch SCS ?
ReplyDeletevery nice and detailed truck, int&ext... nice game enhacements... every little thing is so detailed... great game you're making SCS... but in the interior cameras, only misses the truck's visors... ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, true is that this is really great lookin´, please, next time try 2 make screens with higher definition because this pics are painful for eyes xD. But as i told, fantastic progress.. btw, is possible to see anything from ETS2 map?
ReplyDeletethis looks really nice cant wawit for the game to come out
ReplyDeleteCongratulations for your outstanding work ... The images show a game better every day. Congratulations on the effort to please fans of the series ETS. Would greatly appreciate it if informace whether there is the possibility of double trailers used in a system similar to the Extreme Trucker 2. It would be good for us Brazilians have this possibility, because our roads are full of double and triple trailers, and increase our chances of publication. The system need not be in use in the game, may be only for use moders.
ReplyDeleteThe shadow system took the game to a higher level, for sure.
Thanks

Every teaser I get more impatient to buy the game :D Great work SCS! Models, shadows, reflections looks amazing, specially the truck!
ReplyDeleteWhat about sound improvements?
Keep on with the awesome production!
Great job, SCS!
ReplyDeleteI think there will be again the combination between flares and mats for the lights of the truck, won´t be? PLEASE, it would be awesome, if there will be available the same light system for trailer. This would be make the rearlights more real and the community can make maybe more things for the mod-trailer.
And yes, it´s really great, that the "front-mirror" finally works - I like the shadows, too.
Looking forward your movie. ;)
With best regards
Georg from Germany.
And PLEASE, PLEASE don´t forget the DOUBLE! I think the Double-Function is very very important for the EU!
ReplyDeleteGreetz Georg.
Great job SCS!!! A question if I may: Is there going to be cabin suspension in any of the trucks?
ReplyDeleteThanks guys, have a good one
That looks fantastic, and i was just going to say the axle configuration in the previous editions made it harder to turn corners, most trucks are 6 to 7 wheel drive so turning tight bends is still a challenge but easier with all wheels turning the same time. FANTASTIC! i cant wait for this game, really and truly.
ReplyDeleteSCS, you are master of pc truck games...
ReplyDeleteF A N T A S T I C!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU SCS! GOOD LUCK IN SWEDEN!! I`M WAITING FOR THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!
ReplyDeleteSCS team!! i've got only one word:
ReplyDeleteF A N T A S T I C!! They're very close to the reality... It's still missing the 8x4 tractor. I'm also waitin' for the movie... hum... of course, we're talking about Europe... but an EURASIA map... wouldn't be possible??
Waitin' for the next posts.
cant wait loving the german truck simulator, but ETS 2 is going to be 50x's better great job scs, cant wait for the video but i cant wait for the release any pre dates scs??
ReplyDeletefaudrai aussi mettre une touche différente pour les feux de croisement et les feux de route parce que sinon il faut éteindre les feux pour se remettre en feux de croisement c'est un peu chian:/
ReplyDeleteGuys please, less 3-lined hiways, thanks :)
ReplyDeleteOMG :| this is to beautiful to be real :((((
ReplyDeleteGood job SCS! I want that in ETS2 the road be single, because I hate the big road with three rails! I love the single roads, so in ETS2, Put a lot of SINGLE ROADS PLEASE!
ReplyDeleteReally Great job ! and those extra mirror's will those be buyable or will they be there on the truck when you buy it ?
ReplyDeleteAnd Nice that you are coming to sweden, to bad you going to Södertälje you should come to Gävle instead, just 3 miles from me.
And the last thing. Do so you can those from summer and winter and make it be winter and summer with the time you play.
@Fábio:
ReplyDeleteSecond axis is OK. That's how it works on real life, unlike some mods do on SCS games (they just use the game's steering system, so both wheels steer the same).
If you noticed, even special transport trailers with multi-axle steering have this effect. The last axis steers the most, but the other axis' steering is less and less until the last wheel is with no steering.
If all wheels steer the same, then the truck wouldn't turn, it would move in diagonal. If a vehicle has to turn, only the fron wheels have to steer. That's why secondary wheels steer less.
@SCS: Thanks for posting. Can't wait to see the video (anyway I see I will have to edit *again* the whole map in this game to make the roads have a realistic size!)
OMG, I'M SPEECHLESS!! FINALLY SWEDEN!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuperb!!!
ReplyDeletenevertheless can i suggest to you to rectify these following errors i noticed in the first ETS ( ignore that if done...):
- traffic lights sequence , indeed the good sequence is(green then orange then red and green then orange then red ,etc...) and not( green then orange then red then red and orange at the same time then green, etc...)
- when inside the cabin , the cabin is too high in comparaison to others truck's cabin...
- Problem of sliding when the truck is in a bend
Some suggestions for ETS 2:
- optional display for steering wheel
- Set up for the highness of the driver's seat
- no aliasing if possible
- interaction with all environement
- Management of damages
Hoping that my critics will help you to improve the future ETS 2
Myself i cant wait , i am very exiting that ETS2 is released
very very nice work SCS,congratulation for the work you do and good wishes
Perfect Job Scs!Congratulation!Try to improve the enviromental(trees,rivers,roads)!Keep Up!Greetings From Greece!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have hard-truck turbo sound like my truck has - Man F2000:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.4shared.com/audio/5Ol7lFyR/ssssss.html
Who agree?
Sweden!!!!!!!!!:)
ReplyDeleteETS 2 je FAKE!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMirrors looking very realistic! Very very good job.
ReplyDeleteSINGLE ROAD IN EURO TRUCK SIMULATOR 2 PLEASE.
ReplyDeleteLooking great, although the in cab screenshot reminds me of one of the most anoying features in these truck games, and this is that some trucks in cab speed-o-meter does not match the HUD speed-o-meter. That used to drive me crazy and i really hope its fixed for ETS2 :D
ReplyDeleteGreat! I think we must see the driver hands in the steering wheel,gearbox, and another thinks (turn the light on/off , turn engine on/off...)
ReplyDeleteIt was nice if the game got it.
sry about my english ;)
make the logitech g 27 controller system work with this game pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! it would be then the most awesome game ever!
ReplyDeleteThe visual aspects looks like some extreme improvements compared to ETS.
ReplyDeleteThis is very very nice.
But, how about the physics?
Will you improve this area (a lot), and if so what could we expect?
Maybe we should start saying PhysX? :) :)
Loving the dev blog,
thank you SCS
has the engine sound and gear ratios improved?
ReplyDeleteCongratulation SCS software.
ReplyDeleteAll trucks in the game screenshots appears to be real.And please include the grip of the trucks as in ETS it was too bad at corners.Please lessen the no. of round abouts and increase the number of signals.Please include more single roads.
Please give about the system requirement.
