We are excited to share that the Open Beta for the 1.57 update for
American Truck Simulator is now available to try and test out! If you would like to take part in this Open Beta, we would really appreciate it if you could help us by reporting any bugs you may encounter in the
appropriate section(s) of our official forums.
Any feedback you provide is extremely valuable as it helps our team to fine-tune the features to perfection, so we would like to thank you in advance for taking your time with that! Now, let's take a look at what's coming in the 1.57 update!
HDR Support
We have implemented HDR (High Dynamic Range) support in the game. HDR is a feature that enhances image quality, allowing players with HDR-compatible monitors or TVs to experience richer colors and improved contrast.
Alongside HDR, we have also updated the brightness setup to give players more control over visual settings. This will include a dedicated setup screen where you can preview your brightness adjustments on actual in-game images, as well as an HDR Calibration feature, which lets you fine-tune the HDR effect using a simple slider.
For players using HDR-compatible displays, the feature will be automatically detected in the game, ensuring you get the best possible visual experience from the moment you start playing.
Reworked Players' Company Logos
Update 1.57 refreshes your company identity with a new set of logos to choose from when creating or updating your profile. The classic designs were modernized to give every company a fresh but familiar look.
Cursor Navigation Enhancements
With this update, we've also fine-tuned the cursor navigation experience. The cursor speed is now consistent across all screen resolutions, and the overall speed has been slightly increased when using a controller, making navigation smoother and more responsive.
