Over at ProMods they are thinking OpenGL issue. That would mean all OSX regardless of GPU hardware, no?

The Big Black Box is also affecting the "sailboat" trailer. Doesn't seem to interfere in any way with gameplay, just an illusion-smasher.

No. I'm trying to reproduce it on my late 2013 MacBook Pro (currently macOS 10.12.3) and I just can't. It's never happened to me to begin with. Now I'm checking affected trailers in the trailer browser while switching between the GeForce 750M and Iris Pro 5200 (slideshow) and changing various settings. No black boxes, no absence of shadows.

I'm thinking this may be related to the absence of lines on certain roads that some people have mentioned. I've never noticed problems with the lines, either, although I haven't checked those locations to be sure. Both these shadows and those lines seem to use the same rendering technique. Edit: turns out I do have the line issue.

What would help in narrowing it down:
  • full system specs
  • all of the settings
  • game log

Rootless, can you reproduce this issue reliably? Say, coordinates or exact truck/trailer configuartion, exact time of day (game time) and what settings you are using. (game logs will suffice)

This way it's actually possible to check if your issue occurs only in certain situations and can thus be remedied.
Otherwise, it's definitely going to end up on the "OSX users are not a priority" pile and it will even end up in the "users who didn't bother detailing the bug report properly" pile which is right next to the "OSX" pile.

And to be honest, i believe SCS are taking OpenGL/OSX/Linux issues seriously. But it's going to be near impossible to fix it if they can't reproduce it.

I tried something out with the E6 MAN by Madster, in the default map by SCS no problem and in the TSM map also no problem, In the Promods map however I got the same black block so for me it is a Promods issue.

With a bit more poking around I discovered that this low bed trailer is an original model from the base game.
The same trailer is reused in the High Power Cargo Pack DLC.
So Ive done a search and this these lines are shown in multiple files. Should I change them all? (I have box shadows, sometimes deep black, sometimes semi-transparent, I'd like to sort this).
