1.42… hmm… I honestly thought 1.42 would be the version that would bring multiplayer to the game so not having that situation gives way to a lot of stuff! From this point till 1.42, I’m expecting these:

1. A new truck. Hopefully the account for ATS should be opened after this. I expected Western Star 5700XE or Volvo VNL in particular.
2. More multiplayer additions - player limit, support for simple mods
3. More of rebuilt California. Hopefully they reach upto Fresno.
4. Another graphic improvement. They have talked about improved normal mapping earlier, so that might be the next in the list.
5. Wyoming, duh :lol:

Driving School
Improved lights and shadows
Upgrades to the map like 1.40 adding more fast food franchises
Multi-Player more improvements but mods will be unlikely for a while.

Think 1.42 will be far smaller update

Here are my possible changelog/s for 1.42:

Vehicle:
- Additional trailer ownership: Livestock Carrier

Other Features:
- Slight improvements on Convoy
- Fixes for Wyoming DLC
- US-14 added to Wyoming
- New city in Wyoming: Cody
- New loading screens featuring the new lighting system adopted in 1.40, some shots from ID, CO and WY and the CA rework.
- Various road signs added across US.

Releases this November.

Improved AI (please SCS) and more of the improved California would make me very content for the next update.

Well, let's start:
- AI improvement (The main thing and priority they need to improve)
- Convoy mode improvements and additions:
  • First mods support
  • First expansion in the number of players (At least 12 players)
- Part 2 of California Rework
- More improvements in the New Lighting System
- Driving School
- New trailer ownership

Why might such a problem occur on bridges that can be opened?

Stage 2 of CA rework might happen in the later updates. In the case of ETS2's Germany rework, Stage 1 was released in 1.32, while Stage 2 in 1.35. This might happen in the case of CA rework, when stage 1 recently released for 1.41, Stage 2 might either be in 1.42 (but less chance, and that might be changed), or may fall in 1.43, or later.
(I consider a pattern on updates for the CA rework.)

Graphics Improvement : Improved Anti Aliasing , Removing those grid lines caused by SSAO as a side effect.

Only 2 main ones I really want to see is better AI path finding and Anti Aliasing.

I shouldn't have to rely on a third party program to force decent AA in a game.

What's the reason it's not great in the two games?
