Load Order - ATS v1.49 Map Combos (Updated 24 Mar 2024 - Bonjour Quebec)

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.

@TruckSimFan there is however one problem with your load order:

Apparently there is a possibility that the crash with TGM is somehow solved by one of the other map mods that are above TGM in your load order. But we don't know which map mod. It might be a map mod that is optional and not used by everyone. It is also possible that it is a map mod that is not officially updated yet for ATS 1.47. Anyway, with any future update of that particular map mod the CTD can happen again. So, this 'solution' for the TGM CTD is very unreliable. It might work for now. It might work for several months. But it's also possible that this 'solution' doesn't work anymore in a couple of days.

I'd rather have stable map mods in the load order with as few errors as possible in the game log. The more a map mod causes errors, the higher the possibility that it will, rather sooner that later, cause severe issues with the map combo.

I think TGM somehow is corrupting my modded profile, because I removed all my mods from my profile except TGM and I still got a CTD. After that I even moved my mod files to another location on my computer, but I still got a CTD. Only when I removed all mods, including TGM, I could load my profile without CTD.

So, I created a new profile and I actived TGM. This time I was able to load my profile. But when I took a look at my game log, I saw a lot or errors that are related to TGM. So, what's going on? Can anybody help me with this?
of course you will because it requires C2C so again all these other people run but you can't its ok your load order your rules right

I didn't know that. Or I forgot.

Anyway, I've used two profiles:

Profile 1: heavily modded, but now only contains C2C + TGM = crash
Profile 2: newly created profile, only contains C2C + TGM = no crash

It's obvious. My heavily modded profile has been corrupted. I will now use the newly created profile and I will test if I can get TGM to work with this profile, including all other mods from the load order. If it works, I will include TGM in the load order on the first post.

Load order updated.

Added:
- The Great Midwest V1.0.4.1

Moved:
- Reforma OtherMaps Compatibility Patch v.17.147 (I'm not sure yet where exactly to place this patch in the load order)

@Vinnie Terranova

I would place Reforma OtherMaps Compatibility Patch above all the North American maps except the Canadian ones? Make it like a metaphorical border in the load order?

ProMods are usually self-contained modules, and it appears all the other Canadian map authors are using the same approach if you look at how their mods are structured?

I think the compatibility patch needs to be included because of Reforma, but I don't know how far the changes to the map extend going North (literally and figuratively).

A patch should be placed in the load order based on what the patch contains. But right now I don't have the time to compare the contents of the patch with some of the map mods. I will do that when I have time. So the load order of the patch can still change.

Mine do not CTD. Steam shows my game is running but no display. I have to stop game in steam to reload.
