Load Order - ATS v1.49 Map Combos (Updated 05 Mar 2024 - TGMN - ATS Expansion - Reforma)

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.

The latest game log you've posted is just a half of the full game log and quite useless because it doesn't consist the information which may help to understand the reason of your problems with this map combo.

Why do you blame on your computer?
I play ATS / ETS 2 on rather old laptop with the corresponding game settings and I have about 130 items in the mod manager, including the large map combos, many paintjobs for different trucks, truck parts, sounds, ai traffic mods - and all this works for me, but my game settings are lower than average.
The correct load order helps to make all this stuff work.

For example, in ETS 2 I have a large ProMods based map combo. When I change something in it, I have to wait about 25-30 minutes for the first time to load the game, the I exit into the game menu and load the savegame and wait the new map combo loads for the second time 25-30 minutes while rebuilding the navigation data.
After two loooong loads the third and so on loads take only few minutes (1-1.5-2).

Hitman when your mods normally load up do they load in a yellow loading bar instead of red indicating that they are working?

Yellow loading bar is the normal one. When you see a red loading bar, it's because some map mod makes some changes to the loading screen. ProMods for instance has a red loading bar. If you want the original loading bar you have to use the Original Loading Screen Mod (see first post of this topic).
Whatever color your loading bar is, it says nothing about whether a mod works or not. It's just a visual thing, nothing more.

ok I’d like to understand the loading portion a little better.. what’s the longest wait times you have heard of mods loading?
