[DISC] Real Companies, gas stations & billboards Extended | 1.57

[MLH82]

Yes, thats all described in the mod description and openingpost. But here you are;

There is absolute no compatibilty with any other mapmods, nor will there be in the future. But we share our mapsectorlist below so you can make it compatible! This is because there are just too many mapmods and even more combinations for us to consider.

f you have a conflict with an other mapmod, just take a look at the sectorlist and delete the sector yourself in your local mod. This way the mod is compatible just for you, you only just loose a few depots to go to. Mapmods that only extend the current DLC map (e.g. C2C) ar usually compatible with this mod.

Asking out of curiosity, what inspired you to do these particular mods? I first started playing with P16’s real company 3D logos mod which was later picked up by chief as revisited. Sadly chief passed on a few years ago. Yours is good and I like that it even adds billboards. I know you don’t like working with map mods, but with B.C. officially coming would you eventually add Canadian companies to it when it drops? GARC railways in B.C. will be CPKC, walmart can stay the same, we will find out if there will be new company names when that comes out. Just some food for thought.

Yes, whenever BC will be released we will change those companies to Canadian ones. Of course within the limitations of the game. If SCS decides to just add existing companies to BC without giving them a Canadian definitions, UI files and/or 3d-models our options will be very limited, as we can either change a whole company and not individual locations.

The inspiration came because there was no updated real company mod anymore, as I picked up ATS just after P16 left. It was shortly before Chief started revisted P16 mod. Initially I didn't thought about making the mod public, but as there was demand I eventually decided to do so. From there it went pretty fast to one of the most subscribed mods on Steam.

Back in that period we had 3 real companies mods. This one, Chief's and Pedro's. I was just thinking about them last week. I know Pedro stopped because of real-life but I didn't know anything about Chief. I'm very sorry to learn about his passing.

The mod has been updated to version 1.03.05, which contains several smaller bugfixes in Las Vegas and a bugfix for a CTD in the LA-area.

Important notice
As of ATS version 1.58 this mod will be discontinued on truckymods.

At the moment we use 4 platforms for our mods, which is to many too maintain easily. Not only for us, but also for our users. The frequency of comments or bugreports for this mod in our other mod threads is too high and eventually can cause confussion for users of those other mods. We feel this is mostly because users download the mod omn truckymods, without having the opportunity to post anything if they don't have an account at the website.

We will use the time till ATS version 1.58 releases to reconsider the future of this mod, and if being continued, where to make it available.

I use to get his mods from his modding group, he was great at doing his work. Sadly his stuff isn’t available anymore since he passed. Yours is great, while working on the Cruising Louisiana event I noticed a minor bug with a gas station on the intersection of US 69 south and US 190 east. If you arrive at the intersection coming from Lukfin, you will see it immediately on your right. It’s a scenic Chevron with holes that can be seen under the roof of the pumps. Very minor and can be fixed using the steam version.
