Is there any reason I need to wait for a compatible version of ProMods before playing ATS? Any concerns about my save file? Etc.
Since a few updates ago it is more safe to play with a map mod missing, the game should auto-sell any owned garages there so you can load your profile.
To be absolutely safe make sure you are still on 1.47 (use the Steam beta system),
make a manual backup save,
sell any garages in Canada (buy another garage on the base map and transfer trucks to it, if necessary),
and only then update to 1.48 and load your profile in the new version.
If you do not own garages in Canada, there is no need to do anything special. Just play without the mod until it's ready.

The only other issue I found (with ATS and ETS2) is that map and truck navigation mods which have add-ons specifically to work with ProMods can make the world map not work properly.
For example, there's a Google maps mod which has an extra mod to align with ProMods and (naturally) messes up the map when ProMods isn't there.

What I did was I launched the game, any Garages and HQ will not be present...decumanusmaximus wrote: ↑02 Aug 2023 05:08Is there any reason I need to wait for a compatible version of ProMods before playing ATS? Any concerns about my save file? Etc.
It will automatically prompt you to move your HQ as it can't find current one, but your BC Garages will be shown as Unknown and all trucks and drivers assigned there will be inactive...
I moved my HQ (To Salt Lake City) and I moved all drivers and trucks as well and reassigned them to new Garage location and everything is running well.
However, as much as I love ProMods BC, I won't be moving my HQ or any trucks/drivers there to avoid going through this every time game gets a new update.
Cheers!!!
