Out-of-state license plates in AI traffic

In the base game, every AI vehicle carries the license plate of the state you are driving in. With this mod, you’ll encounter vehicles from all the other states on the map, displaying their home state’s plate design and font.

What changes

– About 85% of trucks are from other states. Their trailers carry plates from the same state as the truck.
– About 50% of cars, pickups, and coaches are from other states, as are about 60% of RVs and campers.
– In every state, you’ll encounter vehicles with plates from all 20 other states on the map, both nearby and far away. Neighboring, larger, and trucking states (Nebraska, Iowa, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Utah) appear slightly more often.
– The vehicle models used for out-of-state traffic match those found in their home states.
– Local services keep local plates: police, fire trucks, ambulances, school and city buses, mail trucks, and taxis.

Compatibility

– Game version 1.61; supports all 21 states on the map.
– Out-of-state trucks use the game’s traffic trucks. Traffic for each truck brand is included only if you own the corresponding truck add-on.
– Mods that add vehicles to traffic will reduce the proportion of out-of-state vehicles. Traffic density mods work as usual.
– Trailers used by out-of-state trucks are standard SCS trailers.

Equipment Express has a long and proud heritage in specialized transportation.

Incorporated in the 1950s, the company’s original owner bought Equipment Express to help with industrial plant relocation projects. Though it had niche beginnings, Equipment Express now serves every industrial sector and has provided best-in-class transportation services across Canada and the United States for more than 70 years. Although its head office has moved from Windsor to Toronto and now to Ayr, Equipment Express has always remained a proudly Canadian company.

Equipment Express boasts a wide selection of specialized heavy-haul equipment, including 200 trailers, 40 tractors, a fleet of escort vehicles, and more than a dozen 13-axle trailer combinations. This substantial inventory allows the company to select the optimum equipment for your unique cargo and ensure capacity for your most critical projects.

I’m always looking for recommendations for Canadian company skins.

I’m not an expert and don’t claim to be, so if this skin isn’t for you, remember—it’s free. :)

Midwest Reefer — Reefer Unit Sound

A reefer unit sound for refrigerated trailers in American Truck Simulator. Created by Midwest Reefer Transport of Lincoln, Nebraska, this mod is for anyone hauling chilled or frozen cargo who wants to hear the reefer running.

How it sounds

– Coupling: When you couple a reefer, the landing gear lifts, a short beep sounds, and the reefer unit starts.
– While running: The unit produces a steady hum while parked and while driving, both inside and outside the cab.
– Uncoupling: When you uncouple the trailer, the unit shuts down and the hum stops.
– Loading a save: If you load a game with a reefer already attached, the hum starts right away. You do not need to couple the trailer again.
– Traffic: Reefer trailers in traffic also hum, quietly and only when nearby.

Supported trailers

SCS Box reefer trailers in 28-, 45-, and 53-foot lengths, including doubles, from both the Freight Market and your owned trailers. No DLC is required.

How to enable

– Open the Mod Manager in the game and enable “Midwest Reefer — Reefer Unit Sound.”
– Apply the changes, load your profile, and couple a reefer.

Volume

Adjust the reefer volume in Options → Audio using the “Trailer noise” slider. Move it left to lower the volume or right to raise it. The hum is quieter inside the cab than outside.

Notes

– To keep the hum playing while driving, the mod plays it together with the trailer tire sound. As a result, it replaces the trailer tire sound; the truck tire sound is unchanged.
– Owned SCS Box trailers use the same chassis in the game for box, insulated, and reefer bodies. On an owned trailer, the reefer will run with any body.
– After starting the game, the hum plays with any trailer until you have coupled or uncoupled a reefer at least once. The first reefer coupling or uncoupling corrects this behavior.
– Outside the truck, the hum is barely audible when the camera is pointed directly at the front of the truck. This is how the game muffles trailer sounds.
– Suitable for single-player and Convoy. Other players do not need to have the mod.
– Game version: 1.61.

Sounds

Recordings from Freesound.org, released under the CC0 public-domain dedication: gecop, kyles, jameswrowles, and itinerantmonk108. The beep was created by us. Thanks to the recording contributors!

CinemaLife FOGLINE – Low-Beam Fog Lights

Factory fog-light detail for supported stock ATS bumpers. This free public-test update adds the missing International LT and International 9900i configurations.

Version 1.1.0 – Coverage Hotfix

– International LT: Added 7 fog-equipped luxury, chrome, steel, and S13 bumper models.
– International 9900i: Added 3 fog-equipped bumper models (A, B, and D).
– Added low-beam lens activation for the new configurations. Existing amber markers and unrelated lamp data are preserved.
– All 66 previously supported bumper model pairs remain unchanged.

FOGLINE supports 76 fog-equipped bumper models and 152 paired hookups across 14 physically equipped truck families. All 19 installed SCS truck families were audited. An audit does not mean that trucks without fitted fog lamps gain new lamp hardware.

Supported fog-equipped stock configurations

– Freightliner Cascadia (2019)
– International LT, 9900i, and LoneStar
– Kenworth T680 (2022)
– Mack Anthem and Pinnacle
– Peterbilt 579
– Volvo VNL (Legacy, 2018, and 2025) and VNR Electric
– Western Star 49X and 5700XE

The inspected stock configurations for the Cascadia 2024, legacy T680, W900, Peterbilt 389, and Western Star 57X have no fitted fog-lamp lenses. Empty or capped apertures and amber markers are not converted into white fog lamps. Custom bumpers and third-party trucks are not automatically covered.

Installation and controls

Enable only the newest FOGLINE version and disable older local fog-light packages. Fit a supported fog-equipped stock bumper, then switch on LOW BEAMS. Parking lights alone do not activate the fog hookups, and no separate fog-light key is added.

Mods that replace the same bumper models can override FOGLINE, or have their appearance overridden by it. FOGLINE is not a merged patch for third-party bumper, grille, or chrome packages. The separately installed current custom Pioneer fog wiring was left untouched. Original game and DLC resources are still required.

Public-test status

Built against ATS 1.62.0.14. All ten added native models passed independent conversion and readback. Archive, retained-resource, locator, UV/mask, and native-preview checks passed offline. Actual low-beam switching, night appearance, beam spill, and conflicts with installed mods remain untested in game. ATS 1.61 runtime compatibility is unconfirmed.

This mod adds the Hänsch TFA 624 Dutch two-tone siren, used by RAVU/Visser Mercedes E-Class ambulances, to all three Road Trip Ford vehicles.

Do not combine this mod with my other siren mods. Choose just one.

This mod adds sirens only; it does not add any lights.

You do not need to buy or modify anything on your vehicle. Just make sure the horns are bound, and the sirens should work.

Controls:

– H: Normal Dutch Hänsch TFA 624 two-tone siren
– N: Intersection speeder tone

Dependency:

– Road Trip DLC

I strongly recommend using the Crown Victoria Paintjobs mod. It is optional, but adds the police livery and lightbar. If you already use that mod, place this siren mod above it in the Mod Manager.

Tested with ATS 1.61.

Siren toggle fix

1. Close ATS.

2. Open this folder:

DocumentsAmerican Truck Simulator

3. Open your profile folder and make a backup of controls.sii.

4. Open controls.sii and search for:

mix horn

Replace the entire line with:

config_lines[358]: “mix horn `abs(long_press(keyboard.h?0) – memory(short_press(keyboard.h?0), !horn)) | semantical.horn?0`”

5. Search for:

mix airhorn

Replace the entire line with:

config_lines[359]: “mix airhorn `abs(long_press(keyboard.n?0) – memory(short_press(keyboard.n?0), !airhorn)) | semantical.airhorn?0`”

Important: The config_lines numbers may be different in your file. Keep the original numbers and replace only the text after the colon.

6. Save the file and start ATS.

That should fix the issue. Sorry about that.

If you change the Horn or Air Horn keybinds in the game later, ATS will overwrite this fix, and you’ll need to apply it again.

Give your heavy-haul setup the finishing touches with woven warning flags, Oversize Load banners, detailed Mack Anthem mudflaps, and existing SCS roof beacons available from level 0. This is a free public test build.

What fits your truck?

– Warning flags: Standard and alternate designs for the 18 supported truck families in this build.
– Mack Anthem stock-compatible configurations: Oversize Load front banners, plus Signature, Oversize Load, and Heavy Haul mudflap designs.
– 52 existing SCS roof beacon definitions: Level requirements have been removed. Original prices, models, lighting, and DLC/Inventory ownership requirements remain.
– Seven CinemaLife upgrade-preview cards help identify the included options.

All authored options are available from level 0; purchase prices still apply. This pack does not add new beacon models or universal trailer accessories.

Installation and load order

Enable HEAVYLINE above CinemaLife Visibility Override and the Anthem chrome/Signature pack when using them together. Select the matching warning-flag slots. Front banners retain the stock bumper fit restrictions for plastic, chrome, and full-chrome bumpers; fitment on the Pioneer bumper and universal trailers has not been established. Conflicting mods can replace the same accessories or beacon definitions. Original game and DLC resources are still required.

Public test: version 1.0.0-beta.4

Archive/native-resource, material-reference, artwork, and upgrade-preview checks passed offline. In-game fit, cloth motion, day/night appearance, and performance checks are still pending. The build uses ATS 1.62 beta resources; compatibility with the 1.61 runtime is unconfirmed.

Browse the gallery to see the options before you choose. The cover is promotional artwork; detail images use actual native meshes and textures with approximate studio shaders. The fabric swatch is flat. These images are not gameplay screenshots or proof of animation.

Help shape the next update

Thank you for trying HEAVYLINE. Tell us which truck and accessory you use, and include your game version and load order when reporting a problem. If it earns a place in your setup, your feedback and recommendations can help more drivers discover it.
