Printable Road Atlas of ATS with all current towns, roads and landmarks - 1.49 - WIP
Re: Printable Road Atlas of ATS with all current towns, roads and landmarks - 1.43 - WIP
Thank you, @Bedavd! Your map is an amazing work and includes some information that my map can't, such as the company locations, the blog photos and even the city streets that are featured in the game. For someone like me that likes to compare the in-game locations with their IRL counterparts, your map is very useful and interesting. Hope you keep it up you too lol!

@SenseFM, this map looks beautiful and will make a great poster once I get my office set up. Question for you. Have you considered making a version that includes the Promods Canada map? The quality of that map feels SCS good which is why I have it. Could be a great addition to a separate version of the map. Keep up the great work!

@Carfreak200 I'm actually working on Promods versions of the map for both games, but it's still a work in progress.

@SenseFM Love your maps. Well done
Have a couple suggestions regarding mountain passes.
1. I have noticed that Willow Creek pass in Idaho is missing on your map. On Us-93, between Challis and Mackay, pretty much halfway between your green marked Grand View canyon and Mackay reservoir lies the summit. Underneath is a link to google maps streetview of the summit + a (somewhat older) photo of the same location ingame.

If you already had considered it before but scrapped it because, as you say in one of your points on page 1, of no significant elevation changes then i would really like to encourage you to reconsider. Because i think the elevation change is (albeit not nearly as significant in steepness and length like for example Galena pass on ID-75 west of Willow creek of course) is still quite notable at least coming from the north. Here another photo i've made some time ago there showing part of the northern side of the pass (perspective is not the most favorable though).

2. Berthoud Pass is missing. On US-40 in Colorado between Steamboat Springs and I-70 west of Denver, just south of Winter Park, you've marked the mountain pass with an "x" but the name is missing. Not sure why its missing but just for the case.

@Quark Thank you for your comment! Given that Willow Creek Pass seems to be significant enough, I will add it in the map's next version, which will be posted after the official release of version 1.44. Berthoud Pass only shows its elevation and not its name to avoid saturating the map with too many names in denser areas. You can see that Snoqualmie Pass and Monarch Pass are not labeled, too. I could try to have those passes labeled though if people like them better that way.

Also, the passes of Wyoming are missing. Sherman Summit, Togwotee Pass, and Granite Pass should be marked. Sherman especially, since it's the highest point of I-80.
I guess South Pass could work too, even though there's not much of a summit there in the game, and it's not acknowledged. It's pretty historically significant, though.

Handy maps and diagrams.
Furthermore, I consider that I-80 across Nevada must be redone next.

Thank you for your comment, @rbsanford , I'll have to check those passes again. I also see now that Salt River Pass has a symbol in the map but it hasn't got a label for its name nor its elevation, so it's another thing to correct.

Hello SenseFM, just passing by to say thank you for making this. This has been on my request list for a long time and seeing someone make it with such level of detail and love is amazing.
I wish scs would have a game map like this, as it contains crucial information for gamers that drive without GPS. This is the first map I see that shows the multilane highways/freeways in a different view allowing gamers to chose their route based on these.
Keep it up man!
