This EAA Brasil map Bus Map is very interesting, instead of driving a truck, you are driving a bus. This I found to be a different side of driving a large vehicle.
So instead of pulling a 40 or 53 foot trailer you are driving one large vehicle full of people instead of cargo. I also found this to be fun but also with it’s own challenges.
It was fairly easy to drive the bus, I just had to swing a little wider then I did with the truck. I found that my blind spot on the right was a challenge to be able to see out the window when turning right, but also when I was changing lanes on the highway.
When I drove this map, although it is not very big, I only found one dealership that was selling buses. That was the Scania dealer, I found a Volvo dealer but there were not buses for sale there. I think this would be something that should be added in a update.
I also found some of the delivery points were not picking up the bus when I parked, So I had to hit ENTER to finish my trip, I think this needs to be looked at.
With that said, I think this is a real nice change from driving a truck, I think I am going to keep this map around for a while. I will post more updates in the future on this map and I will le you all know how it goes.

This version of this map contains these cities: São Paulo, Peruíbe, Santos, São Paulo, São José dos Campos, Taubaté, Aparecida, Tatuí, Sorocaba, Botucatu, Avaré, Ourinhos, Campinas, Jundiaí, Americana, Limeira, Piracicaba, Registro, Bauru, Valinhos e Guaratinguetá, Rio de Janeiro, Magé, Itaborái, Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Resende e Volta Redonda, Paraná, Curitiba, São José dos Pinhais, Paranaguá, Palmeira, Ponta Grossa, Irati, Prudentópolis, Guarapuava, Laranjeiras do sul, Castro, Piraí do Sul, Tibagi, – Santo Antonio da Platina e Rio Negro, Santa Catarina, Joinville, Itajaí, Mafra, Lages, Canelinha, Florianópolis e Criciuma, Rio Grande do Sul, Vacaria, Canoas, Porto Alegre e Osório.

In this new version:

  • Connected Brazil with Europe.
  • Improved the economy.
  • Added 4 new buses.
  • Added 9 new cities.

This map works fine with the default map.

Well we have a new Scania T truck for game version 1.19X.
I have tested this truck before and I am very happy to do it again. You get all of the original parts with this truck as well as a few extra’s. The major addition to this truck is the 6X10 chassis and extra fuel and air tanks that will sit on the chassis behind the cab.
I drove this truck on a long and shirt trip, this truck handled and drove excellently done all roads I drove it on. I have no problem with what size the chassis is on this truck, I find that this is one of the better truck mods in this game.
Although I would have liked to see the 6X10 chassis with a tag or mid lift axles, but either way, this truck is a work of art in my books.

I will rate this truck at

A++

I will highly recommend this truck to any one that wants to try it. ENJOY

This Scania T has:

  1. Normal, Highline, Topline and Longline cabins. Includes also Topline EXC cabin which is longer than Topline but shorter than Longline.
  2. Euro 3, Euro 4, Euro 5 and Euro 6 engines with T-badges.

  4. Hood visible in interior view.
  5. 4×2, 6×2/2, 6×2*2, 6×4, 8×4/2 and 8×4*2 for all cabins.
  6. Plenty of custom and tuning parts.

What’s new in this version?

  • Added optional 3D-badges (stock, paint, fullpaint, chrome)
  • Added MAN-tail lights
  • Added combined brake and tail lights

Brasil Map EAA will add a Brazilian map into your game with these cities: Rio Grande do Sul, Dairy, Caxias do Sul, Canoas, Porto Alegre, Osorio, Butia, Pantano Grande, South Cacapava and San Gabriel, Santa Catarina, Lages, Criciuma, Florianópolis, Itajaí, Joinville, New Fields and Mafra, Paraná, Rio Negro, Paranagua, Sao Jose dos Pinhais, Curitiba, Ponta Grossa, Palm Tree, Irati, Prudentópolis, Guarapuava, Laranjeiras of the South, Cascavel and Foz do Iguaçu, Sao Paulo, Registration, Peruibe, Santos, São Paulo, Castro, South Pirai, Tibagi, Pelotas,Rio Grande, Bage, Rosário do Sul, Guaira, Ashland and Valinhos…

Think you don’t see the map? Here’s how?

Create a new profile; after you will have an option to select your headquaters. At first you may not see the Brazil EAA Map, but drag your map to the bottom left corner until you find cities, that’s the mod. (Weird though as it is far from the original map, but I understand probably because the location of Brazil is below left of Europe so :D)

Now for my review: Very interesting map. I can see the map is still in the progress. It has its own real company mod (in Brazil) which works with other real company mods as well, nothing to worry. It has also its own transmission like the 1R, 2N, 3R, etc. which is very intersting too. This was my first impression. Not a very big map after all.

Map small, and I can see still in the progress, so congrats to the team who made it 😀

Now I’m not sure if it works with TSM, Promods, RusMap, etc. but I can see the original map has somehow moved a little esp. seen in England. (Aberdeen…)Works with graphic mods, company mods, jassycat mods, mods that don’t conflict the game. Weather mods too.

What’s new in this version?

  • Added 13 new cities – Concordia, Xanxerê, West St. Michael Pato Branco, Cel. Lively, São José do Rio Preto, Uberlândia, Londrina, Camberley, Rolândia, Macaé, Campos dos Goytacazes and Petropolis.
  • Fixed bugs

Rus Map is a map mod located east of the DLC Going East, and you really need it for Rus Map for it to work.

This is a map mod that works on other third-party map mods, like MHA, TSM and Promods, which makes ETS2 a whole lot bigger. Digging into the map, are interesting. There are new buildings, houses, villages, modules, and behavior in traffic (you can see vehicles in parking side of roads, You can see signs written in Russian of course, even in advertisement boards and in businesses. Some signs has also been modified and applied to a more look-a-like Russian road sign.

Nothing has really changed in terms of vegetation and living things, but the map will be still interesting for you guys.

I would really like to suggest to put more of the major cities of Russia like Minsk, major cities are quite missing in this map. And yeah, I would also like to suggest repair stops in highways because in other Russian maps they have this kind of feature. Common Landmarks like the ones in Moscow and St. Petersburg are appreciated if the author wants to. It would be more wonderful.

Highly appreciated!

In this new version:

  • New cities: Vyborg, Tula, Kursk, Orel, Voronezh
  • New roads: М2, М4, Е20, А123, Р39, Р132, А141, А144
  • Rebuilding cities: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kaluga, Bryansk, Luga
  • Added new prefabs, models and companies
  • Full compatibility ProMods map: added new roads: Saint-Petersburg – Helsinki, St Petersburg – Tallinn, Riga – Pskov.
  • Full compatibility game version 1.22
  • Compatibility maps: ProMods Map v2.0, MHA Eu Map v2.2.1, Trucksim Map 6.2. More info please read Readme file.
