If needed I could add some FAQ in the Installation tutorial. Just tell me what should be added and I'll see what I can do. ;)

Frequently asked questions

ProMods
What is ProMods?
ProMods is a map modification for Euro Truck Simulator 2.
The objective is to one day have a full map of Europe.

What does ProMods add?
ProMods adds various areas of Europe, most notably Scandinavia, Finland, Iceland, Estonia and Western France.
Various countries have also been rebuilt. North-western Germany has recieved a major overhaul (called ARP - Autobahn Rebuilding Project), but other countries have also recieved some rebuilding (Italy, Austria)
For a map view of ProMods progress, please click here: ProMods map-view
In addition, ProMods adds new companies (IKEA, Bauhaus).
Currently under development is also the ProMods Cargo Pack, which will add hundreds of new trailers and will replace all companies with their real-life counterparts.

How can i install ProMods?
Please check the (English) tutorial by LoaderSaints here: How to install ProMods
Tutorials also exist in other languages. To find yours, please check here: Local language forums

Compability
What ETS2 version do i need for ProMods?
The latest version of ProMods requires ETS2 1.18 to run.
If you have a later version of ETS2, you can find a suitable version here: Compability spreadsheet
However, we suggest you use the latest version of ETS2 to not miss out on lots of cool stuff.

Do i need DLC Scandinavia to use ProMods?
The latest version of ProMods (v1.95) does require DLC Scandinavia.
If you do not have it, use 1.91 instead.

Do i need DLC Going East to use ProMods?
The latest version of ProMods (v1.95) does not require DLC Going East.
However, future versions (first being 2.0) will require DLC Going East.

Can i use other mods with ProMods?
Most mods do not conflict with ProMods.
However, some map mods may overlap ProMods territory, causing them to be incompatible.

Development
When will the next version of ProMods be released?
That is something the developers cannot answer.
The time it takes to develop a region is hard to guess.
Also, the mappers can also encounter game-breaking bugs that will slow down development (or for certain regions even halt it).
Due to these reasons, an exact release date is never set - that is to not dissapoint people when they do not make it in time.
To sum it up: It's ready when it's ready.

How can i follow development updates?
It's simple - just go to the Development updates section of the forum. There you will find subtopics for every country or region.

How can i suggest for my city to be added?
The developers can't add every city due to the games scale (1:19). This means that in order for a city to be added, it has to be quite a big city and have some type of economical or industrial value.

Happy trucking! :)
