List of companies in Scandinavia DLC

Here's a list of companies in the Scandinavia DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2. 
The list contains company name, company internal name (folder name), and cargo direction. io means in and out, while i stands for in. Marina is a bit weird, since there's no in or out folders in the DLC definition files. All these companies should show up in the next version of ETS2 Studio, but untill than, you can add them manually using our Company Template Editor in E2S options.

Add Mercedes Actros MPIV to ETS2 Studio

So, I have been getting a lot of requests to add the new Mercedes Actros 2014 (MPIV) to ETS2 Studio. Here's some good news - I'll add it really soon. In fact, the plan is to add it over the weekend, with a couple of other goodies.

But, if you're a bit impatient, you can always add it using our truck template editor.

Here's the data you need:

(click to enlarge)

You need to correctly enter the internal name, and internal names of cab variants.

Truck internal name:
mercedes.actros2014

Cab internal names:
bigspace 
gigaspace 
streamspace

And that's basically it. :)

P.S.

Looking into download data for current (0.6.1.8) version of E2S, I have seen that more people decided to use Uploaded.net link over the Dropbox one. Thank you for that! :) I appreciate it!

P.P.S.

Don't forget to post your new Actros skins to ETS2Addons web site :)

ETS2 Studio V 0.6.1.8 Released

Dear ETS2 Studio users,

it's been a while since we released ETS2 Studio v.0.6.0.7. For the interested, it was exactly 398 days ago. That's 1 year, 1 month and 2 days ago. Too long, to be honest. We were on the verge of dropping the whole project, but seeing the enthusiasm of the awesome ETS2 comunity, we managed to push on and find new strength to work on this.

You can read more on what was added, changed and fixed in our last blog post where we announced the release of the public beta. Releasing a public beta was a first for us, and it seems to be a success. At least, judging by the low number of bugs reported. To be completely honest, due to lack of time and proper gear, this was the only way E2S could get tested. We'll continue this practice for all our future releases.

So, what holds the future for ETS2 Studio?

Soon after this release we plan to release a quick update of the application. It will probably be numbered as 0.6.2 and it will contain new companies that were released in the Scandinavia DLC, new Actros that's about to be released in the 1.18 beta, and new trailers by Matdom.

After that, the plan is to start working on a bigger update - a trailer database editor, so you'll be able to import trucks like you can trucks and companies. Also, a 3D preview is in the works already as is a nice tool for modders, wich I'll keep a secret for now.

So, yes, there's a future for ETS2 Studio, and one day, ATS studio.

Enjoy the release, and let us know what you think about it on our forum! :)

Cheers!

Zombie available for public beta testing!

Ladies and Gents! I'm proud to present our first ever public beta release - ETS2 Studio version 0.6.1.7 !!!

As you can imagine - it's full of bugs. Your mission: to find them all.
Reward? Er... I'll buy a beer to the one who finds the most bugs.

Oh, one more thing - this release comes as a Zip archive with all files in a portable folder.
No need to install anything. Just extract and enjoy. We'll see how this goes, and than decide if I'll continue this or not.

What's new in this one?

• Upgraded .NET version from 3.5 to 4.0; Still supporting Windows XP.

Adding the new DAF Euro 6 to ETS2 Studio

Since a lot of you asked, here's how to add the new DAF XF Euro 6 to ETS2 Studio.

Go to the truck database (in options), and add a new truck. All the data you need to enter can be seen on the screenshot. (...and is also listed below with importaint stuff written in bold).

For detailed information on how to add a truck into E2S, read the blog post we wrote on how to add 50keda's DAF XF105.

Data:

Truck name: DAF XF Euro6

Truck internal name: daf.xf_euro6

Author: SCS Software

Cabins:  (InternalName/Name)

superspace/Super Space

spacespoiler/Space Aero

space/Space

P.S.

There's a bug in our application that can prevent the skin from showing up in the game. If that happens, create the skin again, but leave the 'Suitable for' cabin options as they are by default.

ETS2 Studio Guide v1.0

Baja002 wrote an excellent guide about skin making. He covered everything you need to know, including some Photoshop basics. The guide is distributed in pdf, doc and docx file formats. All three files are neatly packed in a zip or rar archive, depending on your preference.

Here are the download links:
