Upcoming Promods 2.76 content
The most of these changes have to be in Promods 2.75 for 1.55 but it was delayed and will come soon to new version of the game.
We could see some pictures with changes before:
SCS broke standalone maps in 1.56
Following the release of versions 1.56 of ATS and ETS 2 by SCS, a major bug has been identified: when creating a new profile, it is no longer possible to select the map module corresponding to a standalone map.
This makes it completely impossible to start a new game on certain standalone maps.
Affected only new profile creation, so if someone have already been created profile on standalone module it will work so it can be only replaced old version of mod with the new one in the mod manager.
We still do not know if it is just bug or the feature has been removed from the game and all standalone maps (count of which not very big) are become inacceptable for new players. The issue is already reported top SCS and there are topics on SCS Software forum.
Beyond 6 by TerraMaps is available for ETS2 1.56
Map mod has been released only for Patreon members. Please see below trailer for new content in this version of the game. It is Azerbaijan’s south regions.
100% discovered study 09.18.2025
My golden rule is Every Road Must Be Traveled, Map Have To Be Discovered. So since 2017 I do it almost on every game update including all expansions and reworks. This obsession has driven me through countless game updates, expansions, and complete map reworks across both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2. Some map updates take a lot of time but some is pretty small and can be discovered in couple days. When you switch to another profile and don’t want to start map discovery from the scratch it is possible to transfer opened road to another profile. So I do it sometimes with newer profiles for both games (ETS2 and ATS) and also periodically share my progress in Youtube guides
The new update 1.56 for both games has been released recently and we have blank spots in vanilla maps with DLCs.
Current Discovery Status:
Euro Truck Simulator 2: 99.97% complete
American Truck Simulator: 99.99% complete
These percentages are based on the previous 1.55 version with all available map expansions
While I may update my guides later but if you follow my Youtube and blog you can achieve 100% completion on version 1.56 quickly, before the next wave of road reworks or DLC releases arrive
Below you can find latest 100% guides for both games:

ETS2 1.56 Released
A couple days after American release of 1.56, SCS pushed the update for ETS2 and as well as in ATS here we have see no significant changes from open beta branch. Base game changes like new Profiles UI or Height Blend effect are the same as in ATS but in European sim some new content revealed for DLCs.

Hidden Roads Study – September, 17 2025
I’m trying to share found hidden secret roads in both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 periodically. While in Europe we don’t have new marked roads since the Greece release (2024) in US we go to state after state and in latest Iowa have plenty of nice secrets. I believe in ETS2 with Nordic Horizon which will be released later this year SCS will show us new hidden paths and easter eggs and upcoming new state in ATS is Louisiana (19th state in game).
It is a list of cities by states https://trucksim.top/y9t6 which won’t help you to find the roads but at least check if you missed any.
ETS2 (updated 04.25.2025, actual on 1.56, 80 roads so far)
ATS (updated 08.23.2025, actual on 1.56, 235 roads so far)
Unfortunately, YouTube search results often prioritize older videos, so even though I’m updating descriptions, outdated guides still rank higher in search results. Please always check if a more recent and updated guide is available.
