ETS2 Map Editor Tutorial #1 - The Basics | How to create a map [1.50] 

In case you don't see the map (see only a black, blank editor space): 1. On the top menu look for "Camera". Click the blue bird icon. 2. You might notice the skybox. 3. Hold the right button on your mouse, and using W, A, S, D fly to a part of the map 4. You are now not under the map. Yay! Took me a few minutes to realise that this was going on :D Edit: If you are familiar with the free cam, the controls are essentially the same

Thanks for this am trying to expand Scandinavia so I can drive to Finland in Baltic Sea

Very helpful tutorial, I'm currently working on my first ever map mod which will include many curvy roads made for bus driving, I've already made well over 200 km of roads :D

Thank you! Best tutorial on this subject so far!

I wanted to make my local industrial Estate ( Stakehill Oldham Lancashire UK ) for years and very grateful for this tutorial as it makes things on what easier to follow I thought it would be extremely hard but as I do this on ARMA 3 nearly every night then it's not as hard as I first thought but I do wonder how you get the map integrated into promods ? And hopefully expand it as there's three industrial estates near me I would also like to finally put the Little House on the Prairie ( truckers slang for the farm house in the middle of the M62 Farm ( Stott Hill Farm ) was built in 1738 the motorway was started in the early 1960s and back in the day people said it was because of the Farmer didn't want to move it actually wasn't that it was to do with the geography of it they couldn't lay a motorway on a steep slope

This is a very helpful tutorial, thanks!

Great video Stefan. It helps a lot. Please keep them coming.

Thanks for this tutorial, well explained!

@Stefan E. With an edited sign with a road number (i.e. when I sign up), can it be given to the GPS? Because I have just found a guide to editing a road sign ( with a road number) , but there it is not shown how to give to the GPS :( Because I would like to make my own road number, but without using this ETS2 SCS Extrator ; Can you help me with this? What do I have to do? Please reply.

Thank you, that might be useful for me in future! :)

Thank you very much. After 2 hours I can finally open editor! Great video

Hello, I enter the map editor and put a path then the map editor closes. What is the reason?

It is a very clear tutorial and I learned the basics quite fast but I have a few questions, what do I do after I saved the map? how to implement the map in game? I want to build my own company terrain to the existing map (I use promods also)

Hi, can you help me, my background is not black it's the google maps and i would like to have the black, how can i change it?

is there away to edit existing map mods like promods?

Damn! Thanks for help, dude! 💯👌

Hi. I want to try to map a piece of east Asia from scratch and connect it to the original map with a ferry and maybe in the future with a road if I continue working on it. I set up the shortcut to open the editor, but before I start, I want to make sure I execute the location correctly. If I remember correctly, I used to have a mod with a South East asian country years back, but it's location on the game map was in the atlantic ocean. How do I get to my needed location so it appears accurately as in real life? Do I have to enter corrsinates somewhere, or do I need to manually calculate the distance based on the scale compared to real life? If you have a tip for this, you'd save me so much time, and maybe even boost my enthusiasm right now.

How could I go into a map mode and move the paper position on the ETS2 map? More precisely, I want to put a map mode that overlaps with the default map or with another map mode, but both go into the game simultaneously. I want to move the map that is displayed on top of the other, to move its position in such a way that both maps are displayed entirely in the big map of ets2 without one map being on top of the other. That's what I was thinking, how could you go into a map mode and change the mode's position on ets2's big map?
