Proper load order for Maps

Forum rules
SCS as a company do not wish to have paid mods on this forum. While we understand that not all paid mods use the Intellectual Property of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is and isn't acceptable when money is involved. There are also concerns that it could look unfavorable to potential work partners going forward if SCS allow mods that may potentially use unlicensed branding.

Huh? I don't have my own load order, I use Vinnie Terranova's. The one I listed is GMC's which I don't use. Someone wanted to know with order to put the category of mods in. My maps load from the bottom. I've always done it that way.

Oh I see what you mean now. I do:

Misc stuff (No limits for special transport etc)
Weather
Physics
Engine/Sounds
Trailers
Trucks
Maps

May somebody update the Midwest Expansion for ATS Wyoming DLC, before other people will probably get angry

For those of us who want to try out a map mod called Central America, a standalone map mod, does anyone know if it will work with any of the other map mods that are not standalone, like Canadream, C2C, etc.?

Seems everyone does different. ;)

I am not using map combos anymore for a little bit now, i had been doing that for a long time, since the days of Wombat (Youtube), and later from other people. And the load-order i learned from that, I got from him and the way he did things. I dont know where he had it from, and it wouldnt matter. ;) I had combos up to 150 - 190 mods, also once in a while peaked the 200. Now I just play with my gf amongst ourselvesd in Convoy, where there is unfortunately a mod limit still. I could have used the same maps I used before, but with that limit in Convoy i dont want to take up all the slots for map mods, leaving not much left for me to tune or try trucks. ;) So for the time its just one map usually, and then the rest goes to other non-map mods. Also, this way I have to depend less on other people checking out map combos, which in the end quite often makes one experience issues you then have to ask about and so on.

Until Convoy, if ever, gets a much higher mod limit, i think i am done with map combos. :) Just one map and the rest non-map mods.

Is this still up to date?


I have downloaded all the map mods mentioned in the OP, but a couple are showing as incompatible in my mod manager in-game:

Project farm/ranch rebuild v0.5
Reforma 2.4.6.146
Montana Expansion 2.0 v0.4.5 and the C2C RC


Thanks
