I got a new truck for the Endurance Lab!

Image
It's an Actros MP3, with a tuning mod of which I forgot the author of. I've never driven the MP3 since SCS has put in the real MB logo, so I though, let's drive it through the testing period!
I don't really like tuned trucks but this subtly tuned Merc is about right.

The very first journey goes from Bergen to Rostock.

Image
Isn't Norway beautiful?

Image
Huge ship we're taking...

Image
Arriving in Denmark as the morning starts to come...

Image
The sun rises...

Image
Image

And it's light!

Image
Getting busier on the Danish motorways.

Image
Drove without making pictures for a while and suddenly we're in Germany!

Image
Made near Hamburg, I found a Merc buddy!

Image
The large and cool city of Hamburg...

Image
I love Hamburg, especially the ProMods version of it.

Image
Last stretch is fairly relaxed...

Image
...and we're in Rostock!

I decided to make some journeys again, since I saw my thread was dying on the second page. Has a reason: school started again and ETS sort of bugged out with the release of 1.20. I repaired it, installed all my mods again (and a lot of them work better now), and made some trips!

Speaking of mods: two are in the spotlight today: RusMap update v1.5.2 and MAN TGX E6 by MADster v1.3. Both really awesome mods in different ways of eachother, but hey :)

Image
We're starting in Minsk, Belarus, transporting Used Packages to Smolensk, Russia.

Image
Those darn BMW's are bothering me already... :/

Image
Small detail I really liked (I always call my own cat Grumpy Cat) ;)

Image
Traffic's really busy when merging.

Image
Those mini-buses seem to have trouble climbing. MAN doesn't!

Image
What I love about Russia/Belarus is the contrasts you see, as displayed here.

Image
Taking a "tourist route" (actually there were some roadworks)...

Image
I'm not the only one taking it as it seems.

Image
Goes through a big part of rural Belarus...

Image
On the main road again, and approaching the border with Russia.

Image
A very relaxed route on to Smolensk, with almost no traffic! Welcome to Russia!

Image
Delivery complete!

Image
A problem I had: RusMap doesn't connect with Poland Rebuilding in Brest as it previously did (in fact, Brest is completely gone), is this normal, and if not, how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

Image
As seen on the background of the last picture, this is the MAN with a heavy chassis we'll be using for the next journey. Which goes from Kuopio in northern Finland. Why? Because I can.
Oh, and in a very random matter I got a numberplate with my initials on it (my real name is Loek J. M.)!

Nice screenshots!

Also, if you look at the Rusmap readme, they display the order of the mods (top to bottom, manager starts from bottom) in the mod manager (for multiple combinations).

One of them is for Rusmap+PolandRebuilding+Promods. That should fix the break.

Thanks lads! And especially Jetstream: The connection between PR and RM now works again!

I have a load of new screens, although it didn't exactly follow the plans...

Image
This is my MAN, took a load from Kuopio to Helsinki with it.

Image
The MAN in this config does look kinda nice.

Image
But then... I switched to my Merc again!
Why? Because it's awesome. I really love the MP4.

Image
Starting in Kiel, going to Wroclaw. Because of some unknown issues I've never been to Wroclaw, my game kept crashing when approaching it.
This is made in Hamburg.

Image
Nice funky shot indicating how busy the Autobahn was today.

Image
Evening falls as we approach Poland.

Image
Random IKEA at a fuel stop...

Image
Image
Image
Gotta love the sunshine, as we arrive in Wroclaw, at Tesco.

Image
And arrived!

First time I've seen a busy autobahn on ETS2, I end up there when it is quiet.

Also, no problem :)

New screenies! Since Poland Rebuilding works fine again, we're, again, going to Poland. Koszalin, to be exact. From Stockholm. So I use a Scania :)

Image
Transporting Used Packaging. We did that very recently? Yes, but this was a nice job. And the red suits my Scania! Which is the R580 Streamline. Decided that the 730 Streamline I had was a bit overkill.

Image
SCS's work on Sweden is really great.

Image
The home of this very Scania, Södertälje.

Image
Making a queue by overtaking another truck :)

Image
Linköping

Image
Exiting Linköping, into the Swedish east coast line.

Image
A roundabout with a football. Not sure what it means though.

Image
Driving towards the south

Image
I turned the picture a bit but this was a very crooked road :)

Image
Entering Kalmar

Image
Nice colourful houses

Image
Karlskrona (I think)

Image
Dual carriage way! Of which we won't see many this trip.

Image
Approaching Trelleborg, in which we'll take a ferry.

Image
aaand... the dual carriage way ended.

Image
Scania-ception! Pretty clear Sweden is the country of Scania ;) I'm more fan of saying it's Volvo country but I guess it's shared territory...

Image
Da boat.

Image
That is one pretty big boat.

Image
Arrived in Swinoujscie, Poland, to get driving in Poland!

Image
In the hard to pronounce town of Miedzyzdroje, I took a look at the insane detail of Poland Rebuilding's mapping work.

Image
Like these small villages

Image
And we're in Koszalin!

Image
Latest addition to the Jazzycat pack, cars with trailers...

Image
Nice junctions...

Image
And cargo delivered!
