This is just the beginning; the stunning mountain scenery of Montana only accentuates the rustic charm of the small towns beneath it. And backcountry trails lead to wild, secluded spaces where it is still possible to be utterly alone. Vast, unspoiled, and wild, “Big Sky State” represents the very best of the American West. Rugged cowboys still saddle up to ride at ranches and wow crowds at rodeos. Ghost towns, state parks, and a one-of-a-kind Dinosaur Trail preserve a dazzling array of historical treasures.

Don’t miss out on a viewpoint in Ouray, the Switzerland of America, which gives you a beautiful view of this Victorian-era mining town! The state is especially famous for its Rocky Mountains, however, much of the eastern part of the region is dominated by a unique grassland that extends across the American continent. The Great Plains is an area that stretches more than eighteen hundred miles from north to south of North America and more than five hundred miles from east to west. Million Dollar Highway Offering views of mountains, valleys and gorges, the Million Dollar Highway is a road like no other. Stretching for around 25 miles (40 km) on the U.S. Highway 550, it has been said that it’s one of the nation’s most spectacular drives. The highway delivers jaw-dropping vistas and stunning backdrops on its winding and often dangerous road. So why is this stretch of road named the Million Dollar Highway? There are several stories including that it cost a million dollars a mile to build it and that its fill dirt contains a million dollars in gold ore. Industries Speaking about gold, the state is known for its gold mine located near Colorado Springs where you can haul important mining equipment and waste rock to and from the mining site.

Nearly half of the state’s 66 million acres are dedicated just to farms and ranches. Play a key role in contributing to this important economy and exporting the state’s produce across the States. From hay bales to farming equipment, truckers will be the backbone of making sure this important and large industry in Cowowado keeps on moo-vin’! One of the largest contributors to the local economy is Denver International Airport. Drivers can expect to see lots of details around the airport including Denver’s famous horse statue. Truckers can also deliver to and from a fan-favorite cargo drop off point, located in the inside of a large cargo aircraft. Cities Nicknamed the Mile High City, Denver features accurate representations of famous landmarks and industries for drivers to discover and deliver cargo to. Denver will also feature a realistic road network, including the famous “mousetrap intersection”, the interchange of I-25 and I-70, which is best known for its spaghetti-like design. Located at the foot of Pikes Peak, you’ll find the city of Colorado Springs, the state’s 2nd most populous city. Colorado Springs is known for its many one-of-a-kind attractions, the most iconic being the city’s Garden of the Gods Park, a National Natural Landmark. Featuring 300 million years worth of geological history and incredible towering red sandstone rock formations, it is no wonder it is ranked top of the list of best parks to visit in the US. Try to find a hidden road that will take you there!

American Truck Simulator: huge update 1.38 released

Wed, 15 Jul 2020 00:00:00 +0000

For American Truck Simulator the huge update 1.38 has been released for Linux on Steam. Among other things, it adds SSAO (Screen Space Ambient Occlusion) to the graphics engine and improves the map of Las Vegas:

American Truck Simulator 1.38 Release With Idaho’s release just around the corner and with lots of testing, feedback, fixing and fine-tuning, we are excited to announce the arrival of update the 1.38 for American Truck Simulator! We’d like to thank all those who took part in your bug reports, opinions, and general feedback. We hope you can now begin to fully enjoy the various new features which are included within this update. So, what can you expect to find in the 1.38 update ATS? Lets us give you a quick recap of the most significant changes. First off, the city of Las Vegas has received a major revamp, which includes new road networks, updates to existing interstate junctions, more detailed scenery, and the inclusion of newer vegetation, terrain textures, and much more! You can find a more in-depth blog post on the subject which showcases many of the changes found in and around the city. But the best way to see it all is to see the city for yourself! So be sure to make that trip to Nevada and let us know what you think through our social media channels. Las Vegas isn’t the only part of the American Truck Simulator world to receive an update in 1.38, one of the more noticeable changes are to Truckstops. One of the first changes you will notice at Truckstops in ATS is that fuel stations now have lanes with appropriate width for trucks to pull up and refuel in. We have also implemented (where possible) guidance lines to help drivers line up their trucks to avoid damaging their vehicles upon entry and exit. Plus there is a completely new truck stop placed on the US-111 road now! We are also excited to introduce the inclusion of a computer graphics technique for efficiently approximating ambient occlusion effects in real-time. Screen Space Ambient Occlusion, better known in its shorter form SSAO, creates shadows in the areas where objects connect, to give it a more natural and believable look in terms of lighting and shadows. Less powerful GPUs may struggle to keep up at full quality, and with 400% or similarly high scaling selected, even mid-range machines would feel the impact on fps. If you are not happy with framerate after this update, please open the advanced graphics options in the game and try to find the right combination of scaling and SSAO quality for you. With a weaker GPU, it may be advisable to switch off SSAO completely. This new feature can be better explained by one of our senior programmers, be sure to read a more in-depth post about the topic at our Under the Hood blog post here We are also excited to introduce a long-requested update to the RGB Color Picker which drivers use to paint their trucks when purchasing or tuning their truck. You now have the option to input specific color inputs (HSV, RGB, and HEX). We know that many drivers like to match their truck colors the same across their whole fleet, so we hope this feature is useful to you. There is much more packed into this update! If you would like a more in-depth read of other features included in this update, take a read of our previous blogpost for the 1.38 Open Beta. MAP Las Vegas city revamped (I-515/I-11 interstate bypass + the whole city switched to the template road system) US-191 road implemented UT-56 road implemented + reskin of a little stretch of US-93 around Panaca settlement CA-111 - new truckstop added El Centro revamped New company in Logan, UT (Plaster & Sons) Reworked all truck stop gas pumps to be more realistic. More realistic dimensions and the logic of how they work NM Shiprock redesigned + piece of US-491 Various map fixes VEHICLES Automatic transmission improved (shifting points, adaptive modes) Las Vegas: New ambulance and fire trucks Fixed steering deadzone FEATURES Visual improvement - procedural ambient occlusion generation (SSAO) Route Advisor redesigned Navigation ETA to the next waypoint in route advisor and in world map Tobii eye-tracking presets RGB color picker redesigned Added RGB, HSV and HEX inputs User defined color presets SOUND Update to FMOD 2.01.01 Fixed the retarder sound when the engine is off AI - exclusion of gear-shifts for trains and electric vehicles To enjoy the 1.38 update, make sure to OPT OUT of beta branches and your game will be automatically updated on Steam. Some mods, however, may have not caught up yet - this update may effectively break them. So remember that you can always stay on 1.37 or an even older branch. The way to access and select them is: Steam client → LIBRARY → right-click on American Truck Simulator → Properties → Betas tab → select the version you want.

American Truck Simulator: Update 1.33 released for Linux

Wed, 12 Dec 2018 00:00:00 +0000

Short after the Euro Truck Simulator 2 now also the American Truck Simulator has gotten the Update 1.33! It includes improvements like shuffling music tracks, improved rain effects and a lot more:

ATS update 1.33 is out! We are happy to release American Truck Simulator Update 1.33 out of open beta! Thanks to everyone who helped us verify the stability of the new features. We kept testing the ATS update a bit longer to make sure that there were no surprises with the new detours feature, and fortunately it looks like the reactions to it are all positive. We’ll keep tweaking the feature in upcoming updates, and of course we owe it also to players of Euro Truck Simulator 2 - once we create the relevant new graphics content depicting the blocked roads. As both our flagship sims are running on the same codebase, American Truck’s update benefited from the extended Experimental and Open Beta programs we have tried ahead of Euro Truck 2’s new update. We are very likely to repeat the process again for most of the upcoming updates. Even when we are not currently in open beta, we’d like to invite you to provide your feedback, input, wishes, and critique on our forums. We keep monitoring the message boards pretty much every day. The old school forums often work better for a discussion thread taking place across several days or weeks, compared to the typical quick fire and forget exchanges on newer generation social media. Features are described in depth in the open beta announcement: https://steamcommunity.com/games/americantrucksimulator/announcements/detail/1714079132251894910 Enjoy all the new additions and happy trucking. By the way, which changelog video do you like more? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcLccszlsA4 To enjoy the 1.33 update, make sure to OPT OUT of beta branches and your game will be updated automatically on Steam. Changelog Buyable turnpike double trailers (Nevada only) Detours Added OR-140 road Oregon map expansion required Steam cloud based profiles Reusable truck and trailer configuration templates Physics improvements (suspension, damping, braking, cogs) Rain drops behavior on glass improved Music shuffling Country/state name localization settings g_disable_beacons (0/1/2) - for people that have issues with blinking lights Various customization options Mod alert Due to the number of changes, most mods will need some work to catch up!

American Truck Simulator: free DLC Truck "Volvo VNL" released

Wed, 07 Nov 2018 00:00:00 +0000

The from many fans of American Truck Simulator long awaited truck Volvo VNL has been added for free to the game on Steam!

Volvo VNL is joining American Truck Simulator! It wasn’t nearly as fast or simple as we initially expected, but it’s coming at last. We’re finally able to grow the number of trucks that are represented in American Truck Simulator! ːhonkhonkː The Volvo VNL (the previous generation for now – to prevent any misunderstanding) is the fifth truck joining the fleet of American Truck Simulator. It’s a free DLC addition for every owner of the base game. If you update the game on Steam (which may or may not require a restart for some users), the game will automatically download it. It comes in variants 300, 730 and 780 with a number of other options to customize it to your needs and preferences. This is only a start; with the manufacturer now officially on board, we can all hope that the road to include their latest and greatest will not be as long and bumpy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpvvvXqet24 To whet your appetite to this long-awaited addition, we are happy to publish a video tribute to celebrate the moment, and a few screenshots, just a little taste before you get a chance to download it to your own PC. We know that the wait was long and difficult (especially for some of you, judging from your posts and comments). We want to express our sincere thanks to the whole of our fan community for your patience and loyalty. The vision for what American Truck Simulator - as well as Euro Truck Simulator 2 - should become eventually is grand and the way to get there is daunting. We are dealing with it one step at a time. This year, we maximized our efforts to sign more brands for our games - and we have achieved success on several fronts. Further fruits of our discussions with the transportation industry should come in the future, so please, consider today’s game update as an early treat!

The amount of open beta feedback was so huge, thanks a lot to all the participants!

Euro Truck Simulator 2 & American Truck Simulator: finally Force Feedback for Logitech-Wheels on Linux

Fri, 22 Dec 2017 00:00:00 +0000

Finally a very good message for all Linux-Friends of Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator: both games now have (half-)official support for Force Feedback when using (Logitech) wheels! What does “half-official” mean? SCS did not (yet?) implement FFB for wheels in the base games. BUT: 50keda, a Mod from the official SCS forum got access to the source-code of a FFB-plugin for Windows and he developed an ETS2/ATS-Plugin for Linux of it! It has currently been tested only with wheels from Logitech - but these tests have been reported by users to be successful.

Euro Truck Simulator 2 & American Truck Simulator: Event "Grand Gift Delivery 2017" has begun

Wed, 20 Dec 2017 00:00:00 +0000

The developers of Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator announced today on Steam, that in both titles the event “Grand Gift Delivery 2017” has begun with unique virtual and even real rewards. Since it’s a World of Trucks event where you have to pick up this special contracts, you’ll need an account there. Chances are high that you already have it, if you like the games:

Santa needs our help! Our ‘On The Road’ crew has just arrived from the North Pole. Santa’s logistics network is having a hard time coping with deliveries of all the gifts, and SCS Software has been summoned for help. Honestly, though, our humble sim trailer is just not enough, the motion seats just take up too much space. Way more capacity is needed. It is clear that we need to turn to players of our games for help! There are billions of gifts around the globe waiting for delivery, and we have duly informed Santa that we may only be able to help him with a tiny fraction of the number, and only in limited territories. Even with the addition of New Mexico to American Truck Simulator and Italia to Euro Truck Simulator 2, our coverage of the two continents is still not satisfactory, not to speak about the rest of the planet. Yes, we know! Now even Santa is pushing us hard to improve the coverage for the next year already - as if he planned to depend on us again and again. For now, let’s try to do what we can do. There are rewards waiting for everyone who’ll join in! Santa has some special cabin toys and accessories straight from his domain for you. He’s even willing to let you park your mighty diesel beasts at the North Pole - in a new main-menu background scene. How cool is that? This World of Trucks event is a bit more complex than what we had in the previous seasons. Players of both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 will be able to participate, but each game is counted separately and provides its own set of achievements and rewards. On top of it, each game’s event actually has two levels of accomplishment, and two tiers of rewards! The rewards are not just digital this time. At the conclusion of the event, we’ll draw five lucky winners for each game and each tier (that’s 20 prizes in total) and offer you a choice of merchandise from our e-shop to pick your reward from. Rules & Rewards We’re running two events in parallel - you can choose between American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2, or participate in both events to earn the most goodies! Deliver gifts (that’s a very specific cargo that you will only find on World of Trucks contracts now!) to at least 6 (for the 1st Tier) or 12 (to complete the 2nd Tier) different cities. Only deliveries of over 240 km / 150 miles are eligible. Receive unique rewards on each tier: Tier 1: Exclusive World of Trucks achievements for event completion in each game Hanging cabin decorations - Xmas Ball and Plush Bear (ETS2), Polar Star and Polar Plush Bear (ATS) Main menu background theme - “Magic Time” Five people who completed this Tier have a chance of winning the physical reward: choose any amount of merchandise of your choice from our e-shop for a sum up to 50€. Tier 2: Hanging cabin decorations - Polar Beast and Snowman Trucker (ETS2), Grizzly Bear and Snowman Trucker (ATS) Customizable paint-jobs “Crystal Dream” (ATS) and “Crystal Dimension” (ETS2) Main menu background theme - “On top of the world” Five people who completed this Tier have a chance of winning physical reward: choose any amount of merchandise of your choice from e-shop for a sum up to 100€. Important Notes Latest game version is required for participating in the event. In-game rewards are granted as tradeable and marketable Steam inventory items Quadruple (x4) your chance of winning a physical reward by completing the event in both games for both event Tiers! Physical rewards are drawn randomly from all participants for each Tier after event completion on Monday, January 22, 2018. Winners will be announced on our blog! That’s it! Put on your hauling pants and hop behind your steering wheel! There’re some delivery jobs waiting for you!
