Real companies, gas stations & billboards

Description
Get ready to transform your American Truck Simulator experience with a surge of realism! Imagine cruising down the highway, surrounded by the iconic logos of real-world companies, pulling into familiar gas stations, and seeing billboards that mirror those you'd encounter on a genuine American road trip.

Here's a glimpse of what's in store:

Real Companies:
Say goodbye to generic in-game businesses and hello to recognizable brands. Deliver cargo to and from the warehouses and distribution centers of actual companies, adding a layer of authenticity to your trucking adventures.

Real Gas Stations:
Fuel up at gas stations that you'd find along any American highway. Experience the immersion of pulling into well-known fuel stops, enhancing the feeling of a true cross-country haul.

Realistic Billboards:
The roadsides will come alive with billboards showcasing advertisements that mirror real-life campaigns. This detail adds significantly to the visual fidelity of the game world.

This enhancement aims to bridge the gap between virtual trucking and the real world, providing an unparalleled level of immersion. Prepare to see ATS in a whole new light!

Practical info

For the full list of changed companies and credits you can have a look at the change notes.

The mod is NOT designed for Convoy but it works on it. Mods that change the visual game world can not be optional.

Read below for the load order in the mod manager and compatible mods. Must be placed on top of the mod manager or at least above map mods and mods that change (traffic) textures or logos.

Important:Unfortunatly we cannot change single locations or companies per state, it`s either all or none. This due to game limitations.

The extended mod gives us more options to split companies, replace single locations and use map sectors. Things which are not possible on Steam. The extended mod does not replace this Steam mod but is an addition to it. You need this mod if you want to use the extended version.

Convoy, wrong version
Most likely Steam updated your mod and not the one of the convoy host. Don't blame us for updating. You get the message because the convoyhost started the game without verifying they are on the latest version of their mods. Restarting Steam might help as it quite often has issues.

Extended mod thread
Please don't report issues about the extended mod here on Steam as it-s a completly different mod. It might confuse other users. We also don't reply on them here and we will remove your post. Issue and questions about the Extended mod can be discussen on it's official page.

If you didn't see this Mod get updated on Steam on July 14th, then I would Unsub & Resub. That worked for me whenever I had crash issues. Verify Integrity could also help just in case the game update missed a file or something else went wrong during the Download/Update.

Are people experiencing crashes with this mod in 1.55? I only use a few mods including this one and never had crashes before 1.55 but now my game crashes randomly while driving.
@1Callme_Rick;

I think it's just "Lucky Of The Draw" I see them regularly, and just got a load from them.

this is a post from Juli 8 on your site (Get Ready for Iowa: Mod Update Arrives Thursday!} what date does it drop. my game is fully 1.55 but for some reason when i use this it kicks me out the game Randomly, Mostly when you are close to your destination, Also i would like to know what the best spot is in the load order, because i don't use only this mod. Thanks in advance for some clear answers.

is walmart not a thing anymore? cant find a single one
I just wanted to say that I've been playing with your Mod for several hours now, and I think it's the best version of "Real Companies" I've used to date, and I've tried most of them.

From Billboards to Trailers, and Buildings to Gas Stations, the feel of immersions is just awesome.

Thanks for being a part of our Modding Community.🏆👍

Keep On Trucking. :GravityCat::armchair::kopi:
As a Consumer Protection & Copyright attorney, it's not necessary for that kind of protection for the Free Modding Community.

I'm not going to draw this into a lengthy legalese text, but here are the facts:

1. The Mod Author doesn't work for the game Developers/Publishers (Very Important}.
2. Falls under the "Fair Usage Act" (Most Important}.
3. The "Steam Workshop" has a Disclaimer protecting Mod Authors (The Dispute would have to be filed against Steam/Valve, not the Author.

Copyright Lawsuits have been filed many times in the early days against the "FREE" Modding Community (Cities Skylines, Grand Theft Auto & Rig 'N' Roll), and none were successful.

Thnx, we will take a look at it.

yeah that's why i said, work on it. That thing holds no legal grounds, nor doesn't specify any approved and acknowledged approval for use of corresponding items.

Something along the line of "used with explicit permission" and such good stuff holds a lot more weight. Especially when that permission is provided in writing and approved by the owners of such property.

Just saying.
