ETS2 Mod Support: Game Crashing

Step-by-Step Guide to Fix Game Crashing Issues

Follow the steps below to identify and fix the cause of game crashes in ETS2:

Step 1: Ensure All Mods Are Up-to-Date

The first step is to ensure that your mods are compatible with the latest version of ETS2. Check for updates on the Steam Workshop or the mod creator's website.

Step 2: Check the Game Log for Errors

Use the game log to identify any errors. Here's how:

• Go to your ETS2 folder in Documents/Euro Truck Simulator 2.
• Open the game.log.txt file in a text editor.
• Look for red error messages related to mods.

Step 3: Disable Mods and Re-enable Them One by One

If the issue persists, disable all mods in the Mod Manager and re-enable them one by one. This will help identify the problematic mod.

• Disable all mods in the Mod Manager.
• Enable one mod at a time, restarting the game after each.
• Once the problematic mod is found, either update or remove it.

Step 4: Verify Game Files via Steam

If your game continues to crash, it’s possible that some files are missing or corrupted. Here's how to verify your game files through Steam:

1. Open Steam and navigate to your Library.
2. Right-click on Euro Truck Simulator 2, then select Properties.
3. Go to the Local Files tab and click Verify Integrity of Game Files.

Step 5: Reinstall the Mod or Find an Alternative

If the mod continues to cause issues, try reinstalling it. Alternatively, look for similar mods that are compatible with your version of the game.
