Today, we’re excited to share one of the projects we’ve been working on for the upcoming 1.57 update. A small part of our Vehicles team has been reworking the selectable company logos that you can choose when first creating your driver profile, along with the matching company paint jobs available for your truck and trailer. Let’s take a closer look at the designs and the work involved!

Matej and Tomáš from our Vehicles Team have been at the forefront of this project, bringing new designs to life. We asked them a few questions to learn about this project. Matej explained how the idea first came about “The idea basically came from our shared vision of reworking the UI and various elements that we’ve been updating over the last few patches. So, we decided to get involved and created more modern company logos, which will be available in both ATS and ETS2, as well as matching company paintjobs for trucks and trailers, which are coming to Euro Truck Simulator 2 in this update.”

Once the concept was agreed upon, work began on reimagining the logos and the corresponding paint jobs. This was no small task, and required careful collaboration between different members of the team. “We’ve been working on the new logos and the paintjobs for several months, mainly as a duo with my good colleague and friend, Tomáš V” Matej continues. “Together with our whole paintjob department, we wanted to make sure every single paintjob fits as best as possible with the specific shapes of different truck cabins, paintable accessories and box trailers, doubles, tankers, or dumpers.”

The design vision behind this refresh was rooted in both modernisation and preservation. Tomáš shared more about their approach: “Since the existing paintjobs have been available to our players since 2016, our main goal was definitely to make them more modern and realistic. At the same time, we felt it was important not to change the overall look of the paintjobs and logos too much from the originals. We really wanted players to still feel a sense of nostalgia and connection in our modern reinterpretation.”

Alongside the visual improvements, the update also introduces more flexibility for player customisation. “We also wanted to give players more customization options, so all our new paintjobs now come with the option to use the RGB colour picker” Matej adds. “This gives every player the choice to either set their own preferred colours or choose from our pre-selected preset combinations.”

We’re excited for you to experience the refreshed company logos and paintjobs when version 1.57 rolls out. Whether you’re starting a brand-new profile or giving your current company a fresh new look, we think you’ll enjoy the modernised designs while still recognising their classic charm.

Matej leaves us with one last hint for our community “Our American Truck Simulator players haven’t been forgotten, they can look forward to an update in the future too!” We hope you enjoy the design of these reworked company logos and paint jobs, planned to arrive with the 1.57 update.
