Modified Peterbilt 389 v2.0

Thanks to everyone involved in this Modified Peterbilt 389‘s development. Good work!

Likes: many engine options including a monster Cat with excellent sounds, an 18-speed transmission with a retarder, short-arm side mirrors so you can always see the driver’s side mirror without head turning, a variety of fender options for the rear wheels, and cool paint options.

Issues: front bumper corner markers can be seen in external views and from the passengers seat but not from the driver’s seat (with or without fender mirrors), paint options mash the game’s font (fixed by rebooting the game), some paint jobs don’t “stick” and change to something other than the chosen options, the apple on the dash is still in the background wallpaper model displayed behind the options screen (no big deal), and the “O” key not only toggles the beacon on and off it changes the dashboard GPS display from its options display to live GPS display (don’t know where to change that option).

The truck is stable on my system and I’ve driven it over a thousand Ks without issues.

This excellent mod now gives me four stable American trucks. Thanks again, guys.

DAF XF E6 by ohaha v1.61

This was a very small mod from Ohaha. I guess I expected a lot more out of it. The download file was only 2.5 Megabytes, that is very small for a Ohaha mod.
What this mod will give you is lights, side skirt’s and a front bumper. I am not sure if I read the description wrong or not, but it did say a Vertical pipe. But none was found
I went as far as to turn off all my mods, and I got what I have listed above.
With this truck being the standard DAF XF, and you add this mod, I think I would have liked to see more. But it is what it is, I guess.
This DAF XF E6 is a worked version of the original DAF Euro 6 from SCS Software, contains these features:

  1. Plastic and painted optional variants for
    1. upper engine grid (with lights and various signs slots)
    2. lower engine grid
    3. bumper (with high beam projectors and lights slots)
    4. cabin fender (side protection)
    5. rear wheel arches
  2. Side skirts available for 6xX chassis variants
    1. stock (plastic and painted)
    2. custom (with custom lights slots)
  3. Upper cabin back custom plate (with custom lights slots)
  4. Vertical exhaust pipes (one currently available. more will be built, probably)
  5. Reworked chassis configurations

DAF XF by 50keda v3.6

This is the reworked version of DAF XF by 50keda with new add-ons, wheel pack and more!

This is a nice truck, It has a lot of Options with it. Like multiple cab’s “Cabin’s”. Several type’s of drivetrains as well as a couple of transmissions.
You get a lot of extra part’s as well, Lights, wheel and tire’s, as well as side skirts and pipe’s.
Now I would have liked to see more in the lights as well as wheel and tire’s.
I did how ever have a problem with the sound of the engine ion this truck. The team that made this mod made the engine sound like something out of a race truck.
If you listen to the engine, it is either an open pipe sound or it is something else. This is just from the inside of the cab, if you go to the outside view it sound’s like a normal truck. So there is something not right here.
Also if you are going to put pipes on the truck, why not give me the choice of having the pipes down near the ground or up the back of the cab, where I would have liked to put them.
The other problem I had with this truck is the number of engines you got with it. The biggest engine I could get was a 510 BHP and that was it. I would have liked to see more.
I am sure that this truck can go farther in the upgrade department.
You do get the standard paint, plus you get the metallic paints, I used a black Metallic paint. It does look real good in the sun, but not so good in the rain.
Update:
Most of everything that is listed above is in this truck now. But I think it has it’s own texture’s as well, I found that this truck was eating up my frame rate a lot.
With this truck being reworked by 50 Keda, I had expected more. You have everything that I named in my earlier review with a little more added to it.
BUT you still do not get the tag or mid lift axles, when you choose a chassis, the only thing you will see, is the front grill change color.
Yes you have lights, interiors, cab’s, engines. You get the lot, but then again you are still missing some needed parts. I want more of the parts that should be on this truck.
Lights are an option, and nothing more.
What’s new in this version?
  1. Fixed sound definitions to properly work with Open Pipe sounds
  2. Fenders for 6×2/4 and 6×4 are cut on the top, to prevent any intersections on lift able axis chassis
  3. Wheels locators repositioning for better fitting of stock wheels
  4. Fixed horn locator rotations on only slots roof grills
  5. Fixed missing licence plate on 4×2 chassis

Volvo FH 2013 by ohaha v19.6

I have driven this truck before, although it was about 6 months ago or more. But this is a real nice truck.
It was nice to see that it has been updated to 1.16. With all the options in this truck, there is no reason not to drive this one.
With all the new options in the game, this is one awesome truck to drive. I had it setup with 4 axle’s. I was able to pull large heavy loads and I was loving every minute of it.
With that said, would I add this truck to my fleet, yes I would. I would set up a few for heavy hauling and a few for standard hauling.
I was also impressed with the fact that I had all my paints with as well as some that came with this truck.
So yes, this is a must have truck for any fleet. -from Lone Wolf.

New update for the Volvo FH 2013 of ohaha!

Features:

  • Added LKW-Schilds (L, G, V, TIR signs) on the upper engine grid
  • Reworked engine grids
  • New type of projectors available on the forehead
  • Added accessory group to the back of Globetrotter cabins, with various safety signs and speed limits (50, 70, 80, 90 etc.)
  • Painted wipers’ base
  • The default truck, in 4×2, 6×2, 6×4 and 8×4 variants, comes without any rear wheel arches (fenders) – these are now optional accessory, in plastic or painted versions (except 8×4).
  • All chassis versions support adding side skirts and exhausts
  • Painted panel above windshield (forehead)
  • Added custom decal on the forehead (you can change it by editing decals_ohaha.dds)
  • New chassis variants : 8×4 and 6×2 Tandem (compatible* with Flemming V’s tandem trailers)
  • Added accessory group to lower engine grid (you can add small lights, to various locations, including turn signals)
  • Reworked taillights – LED’s for parking light
  • Reworked cabin to accept glass panel on the side.
  • Added accessory group to the rim of the Globetrotter XL cabin, enabling you to add custom lights
  • A few custom paintjobs
  • Custom mirrors with markers to add small lights, including turn signals
  • Added accessory group to the back of Globetrotter cabins, for three types of custom lights (park, brake, reverse).
  • Starting with v12.5s the front engine grids are disconnected from the engine type. You can switch them in truck shop. Just look for a marker called C_EQUIP (somewhere on the floor level, behind the cab, visible from front and sides).
  • Two new roof bars – one for Sleeper cabin (a rework of a default SCS beacon) and one for Globetrotter XL (similar to original Volvo RoofBar)
  • Reworked headlights

Hungary Map v0.9.26+ for ETS2 1.22.x

Here is the first and the only one version of Hungary Map till now for Euro Truck Simulator 2. Up to now, 0.9.28 version is released and work fine on ETS2 1.23.x!

There are total 55 cities have been added in this map! Next version of this map will add upto over 300 cities! wow!

I drove this map a long time ago, and I was glad to see it come back out and updated.
This is a nice map, I found that how ever that the speed limit on the GPS and the map is not right.
If you plan to drive this map, you have better go by the map speed sign’s. I think this is something the map team need’s to address.
I also found that the time in the game passed a lot slower then in the regular game. I guess if you like that sort of thing that’s great.
So over all my opinion of this map, is it is top rate. Just a few minor things should be looked at. mainly the speed limit.
Would I keep driving this map?  Yes, and I am sure that I am not alone is saying that this is a nice map.

Reviews:

I love it, I love it, I looove it!!!
I love how time flies slower than in default world (Europe)
I love how distances feel longer than in default world
I love the single lanes to bits! Gives more challenge
I love how pick up points or depots are distributed all over town. I love the parked trucks beside the road and inside the depots. Feels unbelievably realistic
I can’t wait for the 300+ cities update! This should be fun
In the meantime… DRIVEEE!!!Seth Happens

What an amazing mod…

No corners have been cut, so the level of detail is astonishing. Just the other day I was driving along the road and i saw what looked like a rabbit run out in front of me.

The new depot layouts are amazing, and the Job Information station floaty green thingy is right by the office… So realistic. With trucks at the side of the roads, cyclists and even rabbits, this mod just brings the whole game to life.

Honestly, I can’t wait for the update, and hope that the developer has not lost his touch. Thank you so much for this amazing mod.

P.S. Why are there no quarries anymore?
Fuzzand

Amazing map. The map is still expanding, and I really appreciate the mod developer. You drive nearly in real time. Time is slow and the scale of the map is about 1:1. You get to explore cities and suburbs and towns and villages realistically. Even the static truck modules were somehow around the villages, cities and suburbs esp, in the companies, and very appreciated.

You drive slow in the world map in this mod, rather than fast in the ets2 default. Which is realistic. I think the mod developer is very pressured on this, but hope he could continue together with his team.

The map crashes if you have a lot of mods within it. So better reduce the amount of mods in this map.

Nothing to tackle further…. until next time!
