Added 2023-04-21 23:06:49 +0000 UTC

Major fixes and changes in Esterlon.
*Final release of Esterlon for 1.47
*General bug fixing, thank you, Raul, Pazz, Slubman, GabeZ, and cyber in the help of reporting bugs to fix.
*Changed all project landscapes using a new far model technique of including in-game models and terrains, expect minor bugs regarding mountain popping, or fading, if you still see some please report, consider objects more than 4 kilometers away will fade.
*We actually finished St. Louis (San Luis Obispo-based), thanks to Raul for the help!, Yes, the city was unfinished, now you can traverse it all.
*Implemented FMOD sounds in all of the project.
*Major changes internally, such as speed limit bugs, traffic and misc for Esterlon, make sure to use the most updated version of Mega Resources here for see the changes.

You might be aware that Esterlon was intentionally released for "free" at truckymods.io, which means this project was a success, thank you for your support! I've leased 80% of the project for free, the area around Wasper and Alpine remains exclusively for here in Patreon, here you will have access to the latest version of Reforma and Esterlon or other projects I will be doing. Please see the map attached for the road info that is free or for here in Patreon.

Why make a free version of Esterlon?
This is a way to promote our work, and we are hoping more people will join here and support the project. The free areas will remain like that for a long time, at least a year, new areas we develop forward for Esterlon will be exclusive.

What about Reforma for 1.47?
Please be patient for the final release of Reforma for 1.47, I plan to have it ready in this month of April, and similarly to here will implement huge changes in Reforma map mod, such as the landscaping and sounds. In May you'll be able to have here Reforma Pacifico, Reforma Los Altos, and Reforma Noreste all in one update with the permission of other authors.

As always please help reporting bugs at your discord.!

HOW TO INSTALL ESTERLON;

This is a standalone map, this doesn't work with any other map mod or the base game, please follow the install instructions below to use this map.

USE ONLY the files above in the download link, (no other mega resources version than the above, not Reforma. The use of other mods it's under your own risk, I strongly recommend using only these two mods for help us testing the map as normal.

Please keep this file exclusively for Patreon this month, if you want to share this map, please use this page of patreon.com/eblem to allow access, currently, I don't have any other method of getting the map than here.

Install. Use WinZip, WinRar or any other decompressor program to UnZip the Reforma_MegaResources_v2_5_1_147_UnZipMe file, inside is located the Reforma_MegaResources_v2_5_1_147.scs extract it into your mod folder, located at your documents/American Truck Simulator/mod, also do the same for the other file and place zReforma_Esterlon_v1_5_4_147.scs file into the same mod folder.

*Open up the game, in the main menu, directly hit the Manage Profile button
*In your profile management, hit the button, "New Profile", it's important to create a new profile, rather than using an existing one to be able the mod to work properly.

*Do some basic configuration to your new profile, such as the character's name, picture, truck design, company image, and company name. It's preferred to select your local language (or English), not "united states as default" even if you are from the US, the map works in a metric system, so you can be able to match the truck speed limit with the signs. When you have done lastly hit the Mod Manager icon at the top left.

*Properly select your mods, only the suggested mods from this page as shown;

*It's important to keep the LOAD ORDER in the mod manager as follows;

-Reforma Esterlon v.1.5.6.147
-Mega Resources 2.5.3.147

This will allow the mod of Esterlon to read some specific assets that override some of Mega Resources assets. DO NOT use Esterlon in your normal profile or the base game (or along with the Reforma map, because this mod makes several changes over the map base which some stuff will be seen differently and might not be wanted.

*Lastly, at map module, select Esterlon.mbd and hit create button;

*Next you will have to set your controller setup and select your first location, which you can pick from these 5 cities (more will come);
-Zacattle
-Calera
-Esteban
-Felix Grove
-Saint Louis
-Edenrose
-Wasper
