Modding Q&A

[Calhon]

Hello,

Okay, so I have a fair bit of experience using the ETS2 Map Editor, and doing the sii files for it. Currently, I am working on a map for ATS, however, in the editor, when I go to place down a city, my game just stops responding. I can place anything else, but cities. I have tried disabling Nevada, I have removed all mods from mods folder, I have reinstalled the game, I have deleted the American Truck Simulator files in Documents, yet to no change. I only have one mod installed, which is Multiplayer.

Thanks

You may think it's not, but this could be the problem. Try to do this without the multiplayer mod.

Hi Guys,
When you are making the roads how do you know the length of road you have made,does the map editor tell you that stretch is a Kilometer or so many hundred metres.
Do you make the roads then add buildings after or make buildings next to the road as you go.

1. You can't tell the exact length easily right now, but a ruler tool will come in the next patch.
2. We usually place the roads and companies first. After that, we landscape the the area and decorate it with buildings.

Multiplayer Uninstallation, didn't do anything

Is there anything in your game.log after a crash happened?

[Calhon]

No,

I had sent the whole file to Nico, he had found nothing inside of it.

[MandelSoft]

OK, just ruling out the obvious first...

Have you tried to copy a city item? Maybe that works...

I haven't seen this problem before. Maybe ask the guys over at SCS forums. They may know what could be going on.

[Calhon]

Uh?

Copy paste a city??

No. A city item. The red square.
