@Jatruck, For me personally, the logos of the times of German Truck Simulator are the standard of basic transport companies. Maybe I'm used to them and they are nastolgic memories from my childhood. The new interpretation that I saw in ETS 2 in 2012 upset me a little (in principle, this also applies to graphics lol, flawed HDR, night and darkness from the cabin during the daytime (some strange personalities are trying to convince adequate players that this is high-tech video camera effect) and pixel shadows in ETS 2 from 2012 to our time instead of the former volumetric statics and full-fledged anti-aliasing in the OpenGL mode in the GTS - this is just ridiculous, but let's not talk about it ...). Unless "Euro Goodies" with orange notes looked interesting. The next logo updates that come with the update of Austria, in my opinion, look a little clumsy, as if it was all painted with a brush and gouache (I'm talking about the style of the font in the form of cursive). Perhaps a matter of habit.

Amazing looking Austria is finally getting what it deserves! Rebuild from scratch is paying off and hopefully SCS continues the same with Switzerland, Benelux and then a long awaited UK.

Damn, so there used to be these actually realistic trailer liveries? And they got replaced with the more flashy ones in ETS2? :( What the...

@IvanKuz, I think that I'm not the only one who likes the old liveries from the 2010 GTS (and some from the ETS 2008) more than the upgraded ones in ETS 2. Please note that there were even various numbers and numbers on the back walls of the trailers. It seems to be a trifle, but gives a little realism. The activation symbols in the GTS were also and remain reference ones for me (screenshot at the gas station). They are more serious and unobtrusive compared to the acid green overexposed neon ETS 2 markers, which completely spoil the whole immersion. It feels like the developers, starting in 2012, wanted to bring some kind of ultra-nuclear colors to the game that burn out our eyes. These are the logos of old companies updated in a childish style, and bloom, and HDR, which has no balance, and an overly saturated flower color with a bias towards yellow tones ... In general, remnants of the past are dearer and calmer to me. Already 8 years have passed, but I just can’t accept many innovations in the game lol.

Struggling to pinpoint the IRL location of Pic 35: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/i ... wNY5=s1920

It seems to be a combination of a few IRL locations on Mölltal Strasse around Penk and Untergratschach, which connects Winklern to Klagenfurt.

This is the closest match I could find for the bridge, I know the road layout is different: https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9031811 ... 312!8i6656

The railway bridges in the mountain can be seen a bit further up the road: https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9085699 ... 56!5m1!1e4

Of course I could be completely wrong, but this is the closest I can find. The mountain bridges can also be seen in Pic 33 (https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/i ... eibF=s1920) but streetview doesn't cover many roads in the area for me to try and find it.

The whole valley can be seen here: https://www.google.com/maps/@46.9083328 ... 32!5m1!1e4

Edit: Pic 33 could be here, a few kilometres further up the road, but with the bridges in view in game due to the map scale: https://www.google.com/maps/@46.8791725 ... 56!5m1!1e4
