Also yes please make a seperate topic for the ARP.
Let's keep the forum neat and tidy. Next time, use the edit button if you forget something, okay? ;)

I know, that's because SCS failed to make stuff realistically. ProMods fixed quite a few junctions already, but merger lanes sometimes take up too much space. And distances between junctions are massively decreased due to map scale. There's likely still some lane changes and you'll still have to take the 2nd lane at times. But, I'll make sure all these lane changes will be showed on the signs beforehand, so you have plenty of time to change lane without ramming an AI vehicle :P

Can you do Slovenia and Croatia please?
Not yet.

I'll suggest it to the team, but ARP is in fact a current map improvement.

Many of those prefabs are replaced, and proper signage will be added. It was my main annoyance in ETS2 too, and SCS is taking way too long to fix it. I'll make sure that if a sign has two arrows pointing up, there will be 2 lanes going straight ahead. That's a promise!

Proper signage does help a lot!

Thanks in advance for that. Is realy annoying.

Heh, not really sure what it stands for, but as far as I know it's a project for reworking the German autobahns.

So I guess the A stands for Autobahn, and the P for Project. The R could stand for several things, including rework, redo, remake, refurbishment, remap, etc. :P

Someone else probably knows the exact name :mrgreen:

I don't remember exactly what the acronym stands for (Autobahn Rebuilding Project?), but it's basically an overhaul of major road juctions in (nothern) Germany, so that they more closely resemble their real-life counterparts. Browse back through the thread for awesome screenshots.
"You know you've played too much ETS2 when..." :lol: :P

Basically, it is the remaking of the highways in Germany, and I already saw a lot of awesome screenshots of them ;)
The R can stand for anything re-something (IMO, revamp sounds the best)
Thanks for the explanation!

...from a post of MandelSoft:
"Speaking of Autobahns...we will work in the meantime on giving the Autobahns in Germany a much awaited ProMods treatment: the ARP (Autobahn Reconstruction Project)."

Well, at least I got it 67% correct.

I'll make sure I'll get the signs 100% correct. :mrgreen:
