Real companies, gas stations & billboards | V3.03 for 1.47-1.49 | All DLC

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.

Should this mod add more real companies to AI traffic? (e.g. campers, rentals)

Thanks for so much for your work. Do you plan to re-texture the Phoenix gas stations to Love's?

No, eventually Naf will be changed to Love's. We hope to change the last remaing 2 gas stations this year.

Great update but Vortex texture is changing to BP too late, it is still visible when I'm driving close by the sign.

Thats on SCS, we cant change the changing distances (which are different per model). We tried to do that but it gave a lot of crashes.

We are looking for solutions but till then we have to deal with it I'm afraid.

Found this in Casa Grande on convoy mode while using Project Better Arizona. Gas pumps read Exxon just fine.

Probably one of the older models, rarely used. Great you shared the location, now I can find the specific model and update it.

Thnx for taking time to report it!

Besides creating new content we decided to take a good look to the older signs in the mod. While we all like 3D-signs following the logo shapes or nice polished totems, these are unrealistic in a lot of cases.

ADM for example is a farm company with depots in the middle of nowhere or city outskirts. A fully lit totem at night, like we have, is not a common thing to see on a farm. Most likely signs would be made from wood (easy accesible, cheap) or materials with a long life-span. Of course, the signs won't be painted weekly so they must look they have been there for quite some time already. Another one, ready for a revamp was Rustic. Especially the entrance sign had poor allignment. It was one of the first signs we changed and didn't fully understand everything involved in modding this. So besides fixing that we also updated the look.

From time to time we will change some, so don't expect a lot of changes right away. Feel free to share your thoughts on which logo can use an overhaul like described above!

Any intention, time permitting, on doing something similar for ETS2?
