As the community is thriving, Euro Truck Simulator 2 is now a subject of a constant update not only by the developer but also by a wave of passionate modders looking to enrich the gameplay. While it all sounds good, players might need to look closely at the ETS2 version installed on their gaming machine.
The regular update enforced by the developer leads to many popular mods being unusable overnight. This problem is unfortunately out of player control as they depend on modders to quickly catch up with the recent game version.
That said, checking out your ETS2 version before adding any mods is a good idea. Here’s how to find the info.
