Overdrive Québec

The Overdrive Québec mod

Our American Truck Simulator mods: the Overdrive Québec modules

The Overdrive Québec mod for American Truck Simulator is made of 8 required modules, installed and checked by the free launcher. Each one changes a part of the game: the weather, the trucks, the physics, the economy, the trailers and their 3D models, the traffic and the community posters. They are Overdrive Québec's work, reserved for community members, and nobody may share or modify them.

From the top of the mod manager down

The modules and what they hold

Turn them all on, in this order, at the very top of your mod manager: Météo first. The launcher installs them and checks their SHA-256 hash.

  1. Overdrive Québec — Météo

    The day/night sky (the sun of 21 June, fewer thunderstorms than with the Ultimate Graphics Mod). Must stay on top, above the Ultimate Graphics Mod.

  2. Overdrive Québec — Camions

    The engines (400 to 600 hp), the real gearboxes (manual, automated and automatic, for normal and heavy loads), the trucks' real weight, the headlights, the Overdrive stacks, the ground lighting (neon) and the train horn. Engine sounds: created by and belonging to Slav Jerry (some original samples by SCS Software, as he credits), included unchanged with his permission, for the Overdrive Québec server only. Thank you, Slav Jerry!

  4. Overdrive Québec — Économie

    The real price of the parts, the job revenue by weight, distance and value, the cargoes' real masses, heavy and wide loads at more companies, freight by the real industries, their resources wherever the industry exists, the bank loans, the diesel price per state, the repair costs and the fines at the real Québec amounts.

  5. Overdrive Québec — Remorques

    The trailers, doubles and B-trains: configurations, masses, real payload, axles, drag, and the AI traffic trailers, rarer outside the states that allow them.

  7. Overdrive Québec — Base

    Convoy traffic (AI around each player up to about 300 m, at most 10 vehicles per player), a more careful AI, rush hours and the police, longer green lights (30 s, left-turn arrows 15 s), freight trains of 8 to 40 cars, the GPS route in cyan-blue, at the game's width (the map keeps the game's settings), the mirrors of real American trucks (7 x 16 in flat main mirrors, 8-1/2 in convex mirrors), more surprises on the road, in convoy too, and Overdrive's news on the game's ad screens, remade at every version.

  8. Overdrive Québec — Communauté

    The Overdrive Québec posters on the ad billboards of the game and of the map DLCs (boards, posters, windows, LED screens and trivisions) and the Overdrive GPS screen (start and standby; standby only on the VNL 2025 and the VNR Electric), sharper on the trucks that drew it at a low resolution.

The old, empty file

The file “Overdrive Québec (ancien fichier, vide)” has held nothing since version 3.0.0, when the mod became modules. It stays for old saves: you can turn it off.

What isn't ours

American Truck Simulator, its trucks, its maps and its trademarks belong to SCS Software. The mod needs a legal copy of the game on Steam, and Overdrive Québec has no ties to SCS Software.

The mod holds no model, material or texture taken from a paid DLC: a part or a load tied to a DLC only shows if you own that DLC.

Engine sounds created by and belonging to Slav Jerry, used in Overdrive Québec on our server only with his permission (never sold, never re-uploaded on their own). Some original samples by SCS Software, as he credits. Thank you, Slav Jerry!

The only Workshop mod we name

The Ultimate Graphics Mod isn't ours, but the server requires it, like the Overdrive modules. Subscribe to its Workshop page yourself, in Steam, and put it under the Météo module.
