ETSMP part 16 Mannheim To Dortmund ( via Kassel )

Well its that time of the week again, when the regular among you crave your weekly multi-player trucking video, well you dont have to wait any longer here is it, with the latest mp build, which has a slight bug that if you do not move your truck in 10 mins you get kicked from the server for being AFK ( away from keyboard ), which happened to me after i dropped my trailer off and awaiting my convoy partner to do the same with their load.



Also in this video I try out the new number plate for the truck for those of you that do look out for me on the roads should then be able to match it up with the colours shown in the videos plus the reg number of T56 MODS

Elite Dangerous Gamma 1.04 & Voice Attack

Well here we are again, another installment of the Elite Dangerous game, I am hooked on this right now ( aswell as spending countless hours testing ETS2 for SCS of course ), here is a short video showing a small run to deliver cargo ( after I completed a mission )



In this video I also use some voice, as Elite Dangerous can use a program called voice attack for some of the ships actions ( eg engage the hyper jump, retract/lower the landing gear etc ), also I have the HCS voice pack, which includes of 900 voice responses, below are links to voice attack and the HCS voice pack ( this is amazing value and adds a lot more depth to the gameplay )

Volvo Trucks plant near Göteborg

We have a couple of new screenshots from Scandinavia DLC, continuing where our last blog post left off: new special places based on real industry locations. This time around we would like to share a preview of Swedish Volvo Trucks factory in Tuve, Gothenburg.

When designing the area we relied on photos kindly provided to us by Volvo Trucks to ensure accuracy and good presentation.

Drivers in Scandinavia DLC will have the unique opportunity of becoming a vital chain of truck industry logistics by delivering new vehicles directly from manufacturing plants to showrooms and dealerships where they are sold!

Unloading cargo - Scania Factory in DLC Scandinavia


As the release of DLC Scandinavia is getting closer, we decided to give you another sneak peek at a new location included in the update. Today we would like to show off one of the new delivery areas: Scania truck plant in Södertälje, just south of Stockholm. This location and its surroundings have been carefully re-created in cooperation with Scania, allowing us to give you a feeling as if you were coming to the factory yourself.


Check out the picture below for comparison with actual factory entrance.






We also had one of the community's favorite video creators – Squirrel; known by many as creator and host of Sunday Night Trucking show – visiting us in our office today. As you can see, a formal hat and t-shirt exchange had to be made! Paul is a really cool guy, he recorded quite a lot of footage in our office and got a lot of honest answers to his questions. We are looking forward to seeing a video report from his trip to Prague!
