At last we have reached the end of a long but extremely helpful open beta period for one of the largest game updates so far. We are happy to announce that ETS2 update to version 1.22 is released.

Over the period of the last two weeks, over 22500 people participated in our open beta. Over 85000 World of Trucks contracts were completed. The feedback was great, plenty of issues have been spotted and fixed or polished. Thank so much to all beta participants!

Let's do a short recap of major items that made this update:

CODE

• When shifter layout is named (new attribute "name"), the name string is shown in game for better recognition                   
• Hired drivers are more efficient when equipped by good truck
• User defined limit for length of generated jobs in the offline economy (g_job_distance_limit)

SOUND

• New sounds for Volvo FH16 Classic
• New sounds for Volvo FH

MISC

• Higher resolution textures are used on models in UI screens regardless of the graphics settings
• Redesigned job and time widget on desktop
• Day/night effect switching for movers and walkers 

As a little gift to the numerous owners of a wide range of our DLCs, in the next day or two we are going to enhance the Christmas Paint Jobs Pack and Ice Cold Paint Jobs Pack with a new dashboard toy and cabin decoration each. If you also own Cabin Accessories DLC, these new "toys" will be unlocked and accessible now.

 Here is a screenshot of the new cabin decorations in action...

Again, great thanks for supporting us during the open beta period. Now turn your engines on, World of Trucks Contracts are waiting for you!
