Truck Simulator patches deliver hefty new features

American truck workshop

SCS has dropped massive updates for American and Euro Truck Simulators, allowing you to look the part of the long-distance haulier at last.

Whether on the autobahn or interstate, know that those at car level will be dangerously distracted thanks to Ultimate Wheel Customisation. In addition to tires and disks, hubs, hub covers and nuts can now be tweaked to your taste.

Making more substantial modifications easier, Steam Workshop support has finally arrived. If you're thinking of getting into the modding business yourself, SCS has released the Steam Workshop Uploader via Steam itself to tie your creations seamlessly into the new service. You've got a dedicated wiki to lend a hand too.
