We have quite a task ahead of us now to finalize the testing of update 1.14 for Euro Truck Simulator 2. The big star of the update will of course be the new Euro 6 DAF XF truck tractor!
We may have been a bit over-optimistic in our estimates for 1.14 release date in our earlier blog posts, but finally we are entering the wider testing stage. We will only release the update when we deem it solid enough, but the wait should be worth it - some pretty neat things are coming. A hint of one of the new features is in the screenshot below:
We have some new help too - a new member of SCS Software's team. Our company has been growing slowly but steadily over the past year (and experiencing some growing pains in the process we must admit), and we are very happy with all the new guys and girls coming on board. Usually we don't publicize new hires, but in this case it may be interesting to make an exception. Some of you may recognize the nickname of 50keda from ETS2 moding community. We are proud to welcome 50keda to our company now as a full-time employee!

ReplyDeletebtw what about the Mercedes Truck?
ReplyDeleteyeah, plus the new renault truck looks cool too

ReplyDeleteThe raising wheel is going to be an awesome new feature! Thanks for the great work scs! The new things are looking amazing such as this and the swap body trailers! Keep up the great work! :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats 50keda. Look forward to seeing your expertise making itself into the official releases.
ReplyDeleteThen U be wondering why we love your GAME that much....cheers from South Africa
ReplyDeleteThat's. ...a raised drop axle on that Daf!
ReplyDeleteCongratz 50keda!
ReplyDeleteCongrulations 50Keda :) and thanks for scs soft team :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome 50keda and nice work team!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Both the new employee and the lifting wheel! Just asking, is there a button to raise/lower it, or is it an option when you buy the truck?
ReplyDeleteThe waiting is worth it!! Thanks!
good question, please let it be a button...
DeleteThe keys are already overloaded with other features. maybe they start making some key combination with shift or ctrl.
Deletethe key will be u as i understand
DeleteCongrulations 50Keda, nice to have some of our ones in the inside ! :D
ReplyDeleteSome years I ago I never thought that this could be possible, modders be part of the official SCS Team, that's awesome ! :D
Nice one, 50k! ;)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. And good move SCS!!!
Congrulations 50Keda and very smart move SCS 50Keda is the best ets2 modder so we all know grate things will come from him ;)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations 50k SCS made the right move bringing you on
ReplyDeleteWill the axle lifted give better traction on places like the quarry climb out ?
ReplyDeleteEither way looking forward to it :)
A double drive 6x4 would be better for quarry work.
DeleteI hope it will be fully functionable! Great news! Also good choice to you`ve made with 50k! Congratz!
ReplyDeleteParabéns pelo sólido trabalho!!!!

ReplyDeleteand what about mercedes real logo?
ReplyDeleteTo do that they need an official license from Mercedes-Benz, Which they obviously dont have yet
DeleteThey have the license from Mercedes-Benz. Look on the older blog posts. They will update the MP3 when die STP Actros will roll out.
Delete
ReplyDeleteCongratulations 50Keda

ReplyDeleteI really hope it's a lifted axle and it will be in the game. Btw, good work SCS. :)

Yes ! Well done 50Keda ! I remember first seeing his name in the TruckPol forums and now look - a member of the SCS team ! Way to go mate ! And congratulations to SCS too, this guy is one of the (if not THE) best, he will make it look like child's play ! Brilliant news, and I'm so glad that one of the most respected memebrrw of the community is now right at the heart of the action, his input will be invaluable !

ReplyDeleteOmg lifted axle. And congratz 50k hope there Will come more Nice things for on the trucks or better a trailer that you can own
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the update now, thanks scs and congrats to 50keda
ReplyDeleteSCS dont forget to improve graphics of the older trucks in the game !
ReplyDeleteBtw thanks for the news :)
Congrats 50k!! A BIG change in SCS!
ReplyDeleteso lifted axle will only be for the look? cuz changing the axles in game atm change nothing on how the truck handles...
ReplyDeleteit does...
DeleteBigger turning cirkel with a 6x4, faster acceleration with a 6x4, more stable with a 6x4/2 than a 4x2...
This will just be ideal, like always...
Congrats from Brazil 50k, best modder ever *_*
ReplyDeleteWell done 50k and will we be able to lift the axle or jus cosmetic uses?
ReplyDeleteMake a public beta at least!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to 50k! May you enjoy many years at SCS sto come! And congratulations to SCS on the near end of the 1.14 project! It looks great and I can't wait for the raised axel! =)
ReplyDelete50k + KaMaZ + ScheryO + Bora = ____________________
ReplyDeleteHi 50keda !
ReplyDeleteThis is exciting news, good Modder , I know its an excellent model!
Congrulations 50Keda!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great thing :-)
Yeah yeah ... As always building tension and play on time and the Great Waited still not coming. Come on SCS we appreciate your hard work but you waste so many of time that should not to be only one one truck, but two or even three. The pace which you are doing that is terrible. Give us the ETS 3 and do something worth of waiting and money.
ReplyDeleteShut the fuck up, you ungrateful brat.
DeleteI'll second that, what an arsehole !
DeleteWhat you guys a Court Clowns or an Ass Lickers ? SCS pay you or you are doing that for charity ? Why so much hate in you ?
DeleteYou bought the game as a finished product be grateful they are continuing to add to the game for revenue to put into other projects you dildo
DeleteGreat news! I was hoping for news about the 1.13 patch for the retail version though.
ReplyDeletei think there should be more challenging tracks as http://goo.gl/QSMXC2
ReplyDeletei am waiting to get some in next patches
Good werk SCS!!
ReplyDeleteGood Engels Sjoerd!!
DeleteOf
Goed Dutch Sjoerd!!
(Sorry, ik kon het niet laten)
nice keep it up SCS KEEP IT UP !
ReplyDeleteI think this update will brake most of the tuning and truck model mods. much to do for the modders. hehe
ReplyDeleteNice move with 50k and thanks for your work scs, keep it up!
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that in the Skandinavia Addon ? I see there are other buildings .
ReplyDelete50keda congratulations ....
ReplyDeleteSCS keep the faith
Why in update 1.14 aren't Mercedes MP4?
ReplyDeleteBecause it takes over 6 months to make a truck
DeleteAnd how many have passed?
DeleteSince they announced they had permission? 5 months. But that doesn't mean they started to work on it immediately. Remember the modellers are also building other models, for other games, and updates/DLC to ETS 2.Looking at the blog post from last month, it was no where near ready, why would you expect it in this update? Believe me, I want it too, but be patient. .
DeleteSo, can I expect on this Mercedes at the end of November?
DeleteYou can expect it when its finished. It could be six from now for all we know
DeleteOk...
DeleteYou should pay some respect to the unique company that continue to invest and develop proper truck simulation games!
ReplyDeleteGood news about the future patch and nice to see 50Keda joining SCS staff. Keep up the amazing work guys!
ReplyDeleteFirst, thanks for your great progress you have made til today and for the future projects! (=
ReplyDeleteToday I thought that a -kind of- route planner would be great. I've realised for instance I'm trying hard to avoid tollgates at some routes or just want to try some routes different than the gps advises; so it would be really good if we had some options on routes when we got our trailer. What up? (=
Thats so cool, big grats to both SCS and 50Keda, I'm sure you'll be a great addition to the team and great for us the rest of the community, who has'nt played with your mods, we all love them so bet you will be a great addition, and lifted axels, thats really cool. Guess it will be possible to lift and lower it and not just for show :) cant see SCS adding this if it was not working ^^ anyway, I gotta go now so I'll not post a huge rant, got places to see and things to go! But great news, veery excited! :)
ReplyDeletePlease make update wich shows speed limit and distance on gps. Pleeeeeease
ReplyDeleteThe GPS shows the distance with a long long time and the speed limit on the gps is there with a few months too
DeleteI think he means on the in cab GPS
DeleteYes, I mean in cab gps
Delete50keda congratulations .... man ...and good luck in work ;) ;)
ReplyDeleteAs one of the users using mods from 50keda, all I want to say is CONGRATS!!! This is really awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat about the Scania update truck?
ReplyDeletePLEASE READ THIS, DEAR SCS SOFT
ReplyDeleteI have an idea for the future. It's hard to stop a truck with heavy cargo, so I suggest you to make squeak tire sounds while player is trying to stop the vehicle at high speed (maybe 70 km/h and more)
let 50keda to make DAF euro6
ReplyDeleteParabéns ao grande trabalho, a todos os desenvolvedores
ReplyDeleteHi guys. I have a question. When we will get more drivers to hire? I mean ... I have 153 drivers and agency say to me "come tomorrow" - but still haven't new drivers. Please give us more drivers in next update. Cheers. SCS is the best.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree, I have the same problem, we need more drivers!
DeleteCongratulations 50k, you're one of the few that I respect at modding, and your work is awesome, I personally love it. You deserve this great job, sucess on it! ;)
ReplyDeleteBut, that lifted axle, is it an opition of chassis or you can change it while in-game?
I hope that smart guy (50keda) will be able to add a second articulated point and many new features that are still missing in the game. And again, SEASONS!!! Where are the four SEASONS?!!!
ReplyDeletemore information about Scandinavia add-on...
ReplyDeletebravo 50keda
ReplyDeleteHi 50Keda,
ReplyDeleteI hope we are still the one and other of you see outside of SCS. ;)
Nevertheless, I wish you all the best with your employer SCS.
Guys, please tell me - what about own trailers? when is it coming? i think this is one of main things everyone is waiting for :)
ReplyDeleteWell done 50K, keep at it :)
ReplyDeleteYou should add police cars
ReplyDeletekeep working
You should use mod for police cars for now. :) I think that police- car mods isn't bad at all.
DeleteIt will give a spicy touch to the game
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what's in store :)
ReplyDeleteFinally an official lifted axle update, great stuff, cant wait to see that and the daf, congrats to 50Keda and good luck in your new job,
ReplyDeleteyou have one of the best moders ever in your team now SCS, take good care of him!
Smooth move, i hope to see more of that in the future, so glad the game ain't dead yet and am very grateful you keep it alive even after 2 years.
Great job SCS keep it up!
Nice, very nice.
ReplyDeleteFinally.
Thank you SCS!
is the best modeler ETS2 today, Daf HD panel nice, among other mods, now the ETS2 will be even better ... Congratulations 50Keda. !!! Full support and fans here in Brazil ...
ReplyDeleteagora so falta colocar rodotrem no euro truck e aumentar o mp com balança policias etc...
ReplyDeleteThere is no front and rear fog lamps. Reversing wheel light assist lamp and lighting settings, as well as reversing CCD

ReplyDeleteI've known 50keda since our work together in early 2010. I'm proud that someone who I once helped out has long since surpassed my skills and has now landed a job at SCS.
Congrats, bud!
