Hangs on the loading screen with the mod active

[Kass]

@Deltatristar500 The mod works fine, most likely you have another or similar mod active, disable them and should work.

Hey @Kass thanks for the great traffic mod.

But can it be that you accidentally, instead of the ats bruttal mod file packed the ETS file?

According to info in the mod folder is the file for ets and the game crashes in ATS after activation.

Thanks for your answer.

greetings Zentino

yes I've had the same thing happen to me too. The game would crash immediately. Deactivated it and downgraded to the older version and the game ran fine

[Kass]

@Zentino No at least not this time but the description say ets instead of ATS, but does not make any difference in this case.
I have just tested again and runs fine without any crash, now make new profile without any other mods, only activate Brutal Traffic mod and let me know. Thanks

@TheDonny2014 Please try todo the same what i said above, thanks.

copy gamelog ATS activated the mod can not load profile, crashes before that it finishes the profile loading, and gamelog gives this:

part 1 https://pastebin.com/bynYDFUm

part 2 https://pastebin.com/q9gk92Qc

part3 https://pastebin.com/vBAE9HUW

part 4 https://pastebin.com/YfejwFZf

and 8 more parts cause it gave so many errors... But will stick to those 4 that should be enough to find problem, i dont think it is our end at this time, mods i use have nothing to do with traffic, only skin, gps, hard economy mod

crashlog : https://pastebin.com/6SA83eiD

gamelog without your mod https://pastebin.com/tDtEp2Wu
