Issues fixed

Linux: Wheel deadzone and calibrating issues

Creating a virtual device to pass wheel movements through[15]
Save and run a script to create a virtual device. Get the script and follow the steps from the authors project page.

Linux: Game stuttering, low performance

Setting CPU performance level higher
The game may not trigger Linux CPU frequency scaler accordingly leaving the CPU frequency too low. The Arch Linux Wiki page on CPU frequency scaling provides a variety of options for manually adjusting the setting.

Invisible Cars, Trucks, Stoplights, etc.

Caused by too many AI traffic mods
Increasing buffer size[16]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open config.cfg
  3. Increase the value of this line uset r_buffer_page_size "10" to 20 or higher

Windows: shortcuts to ogg audio files don't work

The game has a built-in audio player for mp3 and ogg files. It will also play shortcuts to mp3 files, but not shortcuts to ogg files.
Create a symbolic link
In the Windows command prompt enter:
mklink /d "%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2\music" "D:\your\music\directory"

    "Is Convoy a form of peer-to-peer gaming?

    While the Convoy sessions are hosted by the players themselves, one player always works as a server and therefore acts as a junction for other players. Everyone else communicates with this particular server in the end. More specifically it is the usual client-server communication layout with all clients having authority over specific objects.
    "

    "Since the release of Convoy, our native multiplayer mode for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, we have been making small updates to further improve the players' experience. Today we are excited to share that a much-requested addition has arrived and that is the option to host a dedicated server!"
