G7 Bus Traffic v1.0 for ETS2
To enjoy the “G7 Bus Traffic” feature in Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2), you’ll need specific traffic mods that introduce Brazilian buses, particularly Marcopolo G7 models, into the game’s AI-driven vehicle traffic.
What are these mods?
These mods either replace or add vehicles to the standard traffic in ETS2, allowing you to see models like the Marcopolo Paradiso G7 1200, 1600 LD, and 1800 DD (Double Decker) on the roads, often painted with liveries (skins) representing real Brazilian bus companies. This significantly boosts immersion, especially when using Brazilian maps in the game.
**How they work and where to find them:**
1. **Traffic Mods:** These are file packages that contain 3D models of the buses along with settings for their appearance in the game. Some popular options include the “Brazilian Traffic Pack” (like Jazzycat’s, which receives regular updates) or specific bus traffic packs.
Installation:
Typically, you will download a file in `.scs` format.
This file must be placed in the “mod” folder located within the Euro Truck Simulator 2 directory (usually found in `Documents/Euro Truck Simulator 2/mod`).
Inside the game, in the “Mod Manager” (when you load your profile), you need to activate the traffic mod, ensuring it has the correct priority (often set above other traffic mods or maps, following any specific guidelines from the mod creator).
3. **Compatibility:** It’s vital to check that the mod is compatible with your current version of Euro Truck Simulator 2. Using outdated mods can lead to crashes or other issues in the game.
Important notes:
**Brazilian Maps:** Although traffic mods can function on any map, they are particularly recommended for use with Brazilian maps (like EAA, Rotas Brasil, etc.) for a more genuine experience.
**Performance:** Adding many traffic mods can impact your game’s performance depending on your computer’s specifications.
