Scania T NG ETS2 v1.0

You're looking for information on the "Scania T Next Generation" (Scania T NG) in Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2). This is a popular request among ETS2 players! Here's what you need to know:

**Official Game vs. Mods:**

* **Official SCS Software Content:** There is no "Scania T Next Generation" officially in ETS2 from SCS Software. Scania ended production of the T-series (the long-nose/bonneted trucks) in 2005. While a company called Vlastuin Truckopbouw in the Netherlands does produce "Next Gen T" conversions using Scania parts, these are not official Scania models included in the game by SCS.

* **Mods:** Therefore, to drive a Scania T NG in ETS2, you will *always* need a community-created mod.

**Key Scania T NG Mods in ETS2:**

The most well-known and highly regarded mod for the Scania T and T 4-series in ETS2 is:

* **RJL Scania T & T 4-series:** This mod is considered the gold standard for Scania T-series trucks in ETS2. It's an authorized continuation of the original RJL Scania T mod and is very popular for its extensive customization options and high quality.

    * **Features you can expect from the RJL mod (and similar high-quality T NG mods):**

        * **Detailed 3D Models:** Faithful recreations of the exterior and interior.

        * **Multiple Cabins:** Normal, Highline, Topline, Extended Topline, and Longline cabins.

        * **Extensive Chassis Options:** A wide range of chassis configurations, including 4x2, 6x2, 6x2/4, 6x2\*4, 6x4, 8x2/\*6, 8x4/4, 8x4\*4, 10x4/6, 10x4\*6, and 10x6/4.

        * **Engine and Transmission Choices:** Realistic engine options (Euro 3, 4, 5, 6) and various gearboxes.

        * **Massive Customization:** A huge array of tuning parts, accessories, paint jobs, and interior customization options.

        * **Standalone Mod:** It doesn't replace any existing trucks in the game; you can buy it from the Scania dealer.

        * **Compatibility:** Often designed to be compatible with official DLCs like Cabin Accessories, National Window Flags, and Mighty Griffin DLCs (though sometimes separate compatibility addons might be needed).

**Where to Find Scania T NG Mods:**

* **Steam Workshop:** The RJL Scania T & T 4-series mod is available on the Steam Workshop, which makes installation and updates very convenient. This is often the recommended place to get it.

* **Modding Websites:** You can also find this and other Scania T NG mods on various ETS2 modding websites (e.g., ETS2.lt, ATSMods.lt).

* **Paid Mods:** Some mod creators, like H&W Truck Styling or Jon Ruda, offer very high-quality, often more modern "Next Gen Torpedo" or "T-cab" style Scania mods as paid products on platforms like Gumroad. These often feature exceptional detail and exclusive tuning options.

**Important Considerations for Mods:**

* **Compatibility with Game Version:** Always check the mod's description to ensure it's compatible with your current version of Euro Truck Simulator 2. Game updates often break older mods, and mod creators need time to release updates.

* **Installation:** For `.scs` files downloaded from websites, you typically place them in your `Documents/Euro Truck Simulator 2/mod` folder. Then, activate them in the game's Mod Manager when you load your profile.

* **Mod Conflicts:** Running many mods can sometimes lead to conflicts or crashes. Read the mod descriptions for any known issues with other popular mods (e.g., sound mods, other truck mods).

* **Performance:** Highly detailed mods can sometimes affect game performance, especially on less powerful computers.

If you're looking for the best free option, the **RJL Scania T & T 4-series** on the Steam Workshop is highly recommended. If you're willing to pay for premium quality and unique features, explore offerings from creators like H&W Truck Styling or Jon Ruda.
