The world-famous desert and fortune-making metropolis of Las Vegas now has a modernized road network and existing interstate intersections and texture updates. The Interstate connection (515) is new, but the US-93 crossing has also been updated. The same applies to the truck stops, which have lanes with markings in the new version.
In addition, some content updates such as the new UT-56 were made in Utah. In addition to Las Vegas, the city of El Centro has also benefited from a major overhaul and the US-191 is now passable in Arizona. Minor changes in preparation for upcoming connections to Colorado have also been made in New Mexico’s Shiprock and near US-491 some layout corrections.

On the technical side, the Screen Space Ambient Occlusion, SSAO for short, is now supported. This technique enables a more realistic balancing of lighting and shadows. ATS players who like to customize their truck themselves can look forward to an update for the RGB color picker, which now also understands the entry of HSV, RGB and HEX information. In addition to the ability to save the color settings for a color, the color picker now supports the saving of all colors at once. The number of storable Colorswatches has also been increased from 8 to 40.
In order to receive the update to version 1.38, any participation in the beta version should be ended. Then the game updates itself automatically via Steam.
Like last time, the changes in addition to the classic text form are also as V1.38-Changelog-Video served with in-game impressions from the game.
