ATS IRL Map

Can I do one for Euro Truck Simulator 2?

That would be very interesting to see!

I'm doing it, currently on Berlin, here's the link https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit? ... 17817&z=10

@YellowstoneFanatic Time to create your own thread in the ETS2 forum I think.

Thank you! I still want to add more markers for thinks like rest areas, gas stations, and landmarks that are in the game, but that'll be a really long term task particularly in the base map. Short term, I'm absolutely going to update it with the new states. I just thought I'd share now since the vast majority of roads have been added!

Sounds like a great idea!

Nah, it's not ready yet. Just got some German cities but it's not gonna be posted yet.

At this point I’m not so sure about adding landmarks. With only one layer left, I feel like gas stations and rest stops, or photo spots and viewpoints would be more useful.

Photo spots and Viewpoints would be my vote, since I use ATS IRL has a reference for points of interest not really as a practical tool for tracking my drives. I have the companies tab turned off pretty much at all times. Although it's cool we have it regardless

Hm. Why not the three of them? Like in the companies layer, you used multiple icons in one layer, that could be done for this last layer too.

Louisiana has been added!

I wonder how do you find those screenshots and put them on the map from blogs, how can I do it too analyzing Great America

[Bedavd]

If you're asking how I find the locations, most of them are found by other forum users in the proper discussion threads, or myself if I'm quick enough (but some of them are insanely good at pinpointing locations so that's not often). I credit the user that found the location on each screenshot pin, and if there isn't someone credited then it was me who found it. For the most part, the photos will have at least one notable feature we can track down, like a unique building or a road sign. If we can't figure it out I put it off to the side in the Gulf of Mexico and hunt down the location in the game and place it after the fact.
