Help / Q&A

Grand Utopia, Mygotopia and their addons are at 1:1 scale. This means that one kilometer traveled in the game is equal to one real kilometer. Therefore, the time in play also runs at real speed.

It depends on the mod in question:

EURO TRUCK SIMULATOR

• Grand Utopia - Standalone map : this mod is free and is available on TruckyMods.
• Mygotopia - GU add-on : The alpha versions of this mod are reserved only for European Dreamer and Globetrotter members of my Patreon. Public versions will be free but are not yet available.
• Patrons Island - GU add-on : This mod is only available to all members of my Patreon.
• Akokan Island - GU add-on : This mod is only available to European Dreamer and Globetrotter members of my Patreon.

AMERICAN TRUCK SIMULATOR

• Grand Utopia of America - Standalone map : this mod is not yet available.
• More American Cities (California) - Base map add-on : This mod is free and is available on TruckyMods.
• More American Cities (Colorado) - Base map add-on : This mod is available for purchase via the Patreon shop or via the American Dreamer and Globetrotter subscriptions.
• More American Cities (Idaho) - Base map add-on : This mod is available for purchase via the Patreon shop or via the American Dreamer and Globetrotter subscriptions.

No, the Grand Utopia map is an independent map because of its different scale from the basic game. It is therefore not compatible with any other map. On the other hand, there may be compatibility mods that allow to make Grand Utopia compatible with other maps. To my knowledge, it is possible to combine Grand Utopia with the base map/Promods and Pomezania.

EURO TRUCK SIMULATOR

• Grand Utopia - Version 1.16 (Public) | Version 1.15.6 (Patreon Beta)
• Mygotopia  -  Version 0.9 (Patreon Alpha)
• Patrons Island - Version 1.2 (Patreon only)
• Akokan Island - Version 1.1 (Patreon only)

AMERICAN TRUCK SIMULATOR

• More American Cities (California) - Version 1.1

• More American Cities (Idaho) - Version 1.1

For exemple, to install the Grand Utopia Map, you must first download the mod. Then place the grandutopia.scs file in your mod folder (My Documents/Euro Truck Simulator 2/mod). Once the game is launched, you must create a new game. Before launching your new game, you must first activate the mod in your mod manager and then select grandutopia.mbd instead of Europe in the "Map" tab.


Once all this is done, launch your game and start rolling!

To update a mod, simply replace the old nameofthemod.scs file with the new one in your mod folder. No need to recreate a new game, just restart your current game.

If you encounter a bug in one of my mods and wish to report it to me for correction, you must use the dedicated channel on the official Grand Utopia Discord. Click on the image to receive your invitation.

/!\ Please do not report bugs on other platforms (forums/Facebook/Instagram), as your request may not be taken into account.

Before creating a bug report to report a crash, check first :

- that the version of the mod you have is compatible with the version of ETS 2 you have.
- that the crash is present even in a game without any other mod.
- that you have allocated more RAM memory to your game (a procedure is available in the User Guide in the mod archive).
- that your PC has a good configuration.
- that you have checked your game files (on Steam).

Indeed, in order to recreate realistic and therefore quality environments, I have to use a lot of items. This greatly affects the performance of your PC which needs more resources to run the game. Note that my mods are continuously tested by my Patreon members and myself before each public release of a new version. Most of the time, the cause of the crash is probably your configuration.

By installing your personalized VTC on one of my map mods, you will add a touch of realism to the way you play. Indeed, your VTC will become a real gaming company and will therefore be playable like any other company created by SCS Software. Thus, the logo of your VTC will be put on the buildings of your depot and the trailers will be in the colors of your VTC. It will even be possible to cross AI's running with one of your trailers.

The creation, configuration and installation of a VTC costs 30,00 €.

Your VTC being directly integrated into the mod, it will be visible and playable by all those who play the mod.

No, that is not possible anymore.

The main difference lies in the fact that a dedicated server is accessible continuously without interruption (except for exceptional closures for maintenance, for example). An SCS Convoy mode server needs to be hosted temporarily by one of the participants. The server closes as soon as the host leaves the game.

SCS Software allows you to change this limit to a maximum of 128 slots per server. To be able to view servers with more than 8 slots, you need to change a small line in your congif.cfg file located in your My Documents/Euro Truck Simulator 2 folder. On line 28, entitled uset g_max_convoy_size, replace the value '8' with '128'. And save before closing, of course.

You can also change this setting via the in-game console using this command: "g_max_convoy_size 128".

To do this, first make sure you have changed the value mentioned above. Without this change, the server will not be displayed in the in-game list.

Next, you can search manually or via the search bar for the server name "(PUBLIC) Grand Utopia - Official", but the quickest and easiest way is to search by session ID, which is : 85568392931609807

The server is currently running under ETS v1.50 and with Grand Utopia version 1.16.

The only compulsory mod that you must activate in your game is the Grand Utopia mod in version 1.16.
No other mod can be added, with the exception of so-called faculative mods. The server has been co-configured to accept them.

At the moment, the answer is no. You only need to activate the Grand Utopia mod.
However, I'm not closing the door on the possibility of opening a second "Patreon" server, which would allow Patrons to enjoy the entire archipelago.

It is possible via the ⁠#server-logs channel on the Discord, you can check the status of the server (online/off) and connections/disconnections.

Yes, of course! If you want to group the different editions into a single mod, it's easy.

1. Download the following mod: More American Cities (Global Edition).scs
2. Copy all def and map folders from the editions you own to the previously downloaded "More American Cities (Global Edition)" mod.
3. Place the "More American Cities (Global Edition)" mod in your manager, activate it on your game and play!
