    Hey everyone, I just want to say that I love the map altogether.

    I don't know if anyone is having this issue, but after the v1.1 update, when I'm close to the New Cargill Airport, my game launches an error for some plane file and it crashes the game. Does it happen to anyone else?

    Yes, it is :)

    It doesn't happen on my end. I tested in safe mode with no other mods installed, so it can't be caused by something missing. Did you clear cache after updating?

    I didn't, I'll clear cache and comment more after more testing. Thank you

    Hi! I was able to reproduce the error, after cleaning cache. I was driving from Bolford to Eastdale through the highway and right before the Exit to Eastdale (I've provided an image of the map with a red cicle on the area where I was), the game crashed again. If I can provide any more info that might be helpful, please let me know. Thank you!

    Have I done something wrong because I'm not seeing the scenarios? Just the bus routes and 2 time trials of the racetrack not even the around the map trial.

    Traffic isn't on for me during garage to garage. Is this fixable?

    I'll have a look into these issues when I have time. Eslf BR, did you use Vulkan or DirectX ?

    Did you download the missionpack at the bottom of the first post?

    oops. Anyway I did now thanks and they are there but the Garage to Garage scenarios has no traffic, kinda defeats the purpose for me.

    The garage to garage missions should have traffic now. Please download the fixed version from the first page. Sorry for messing that up :p


    I don't know what's causing your issue. Everything is working fine on my end and it seems like noone else is experiencing that.
    I did some research about the error code and it seems to be a RAM issue.

    I hope my shrinking tool doesn’t delete too much. If there are problems only with the shrunken map you should do the shrink process again and carefully check if there are files in the list which you definitely want in the map and give me a feedback if this happens.

    I checked the files before shrinking and I don't think there were any necessary files in the list. Everything still works, at least for me.

    You think you can add truck stops for semi-trucks?

    This map has a lot of potential! However, it can be clearly seen that there are many obvious lighting/graphics issues with it. Not just the lack of PBR but also the world lighting, color correction and sky. I'd be glad to help with these things as I have quite some experience with graphic lighting in world editor but that's up to you

    What exactly do you mean by that?

    I want to try to edit these things myself. If I have questions, I'll ask you or someone else for help. Thank you :)

    Just wanted to share a quick demonstration on how lighting is ALL... even without PBR the game still looks pretty fancy :p

    They're basically large gas stations exclusively for semi trucks







































    Heres a few examples

    I'll try to improve on that for my next map and then apply what I've learned to American Road. Thank you for the screenshots, it does look good :)

    I probably won't add those.
