[Tutorial] Installing ProMods under Linux
Posted: 25 Oct 2017 11:32
This quick guide is specifically for Ubuntu 17.10 (and Debian, and potentially previous or future Ubuntu releases).
First off - grab the files you need. These are available under [Download] above. Also, install Euro Truck Simulator and all related DLC's from Steam. Take a look at the general installation instructions if you want some help in doing this.
You'll need something to extract the archive. In Ubuntu 17.10 at-least full 7zip extraction abilities are supported. Just extract your files into a single folder - once you've grabbed everything you should have something that looks like this:
Now - lets make it all work. Remember that directory you saved your mod data to? Well, glad you remembered it because at this point is is easier to linux-fu it. I saved mine in ~/promods/ (where ~/ is your home directory) so things are easy, you may want to as well. Lets quickfire this in a single command (in your Linux terminal):
cd ~/.local/share/Euro\ Truck\ Simulator\ 2/ && mkdir mod && mv ~/promods/* mod/ && cd ~/ && rm -rf ~/promods
Launch ETS, enable the mod and enjoy! Simple huh?
