Niva (also known as VAZ-2121 and LADA 4x4) is a Soviet and Russian off-road vehicle – a small-class SUV with a unibody and permanent all-wheel drive. It has been produced serially since April 5, 1977, to the present day (until 2006 it was sold under the VAZ-2121 "Niva" brand, currently sold under the LADA 4x4 brand).

Fixes for the Great Steppe map
The reason for its appearance is crashes (massive and random) in the city of Aktobe.
The fix is a "two-in-one":
1. A cure for the crash (problematic prefabs were found and replaced)
2. This fix includes assets from "Fix RusMap_2.4.3-TGS", so it can (and should) be disabled.

Changes in 1.1
In addition to fixing crashes in Aktobe, Uralsk has been repaired and partially rebuilt
Grass on the asphalt has been partially cleaned up

This modification changes the appearance of German cities. SCS Software skipped the cities when updating Germany’s roads. They will definitely come back and finish the work in the future. But that future may not come soon. So I decided to fix the situation a bit right now.

The modification includes all 22 cities currently featured in the game. The city structure has not changed. The decorations have changed, which qualitatively alters the perception of the game. This is actually a camouflage mod. I did not aim to recreate real places—no. It’s simply a change in appearance, moving away from the uniformity of cities and noticeable patterns in their structure.

This is the first version of the modification. In the future, I want to try changing some old company prefabs, but for that, I will have to resort to using a 3D editor. This is not a quick process.

All map DLCs released up to 2022 are required for the mod to work. Also, I would be grateful to everyone who writes to me about problems found in this modification. I will try to fix them. The modification only includes the sectors where the cities are located. Compatibility with other user maps is not currently planned. Sorry.

Changes in 1.0
Fixed, replaced, and removed inappropriate billboards;
Added small details I forgot to add;
Replaced one old building as a start (a training exercise for now).

Thank you for your attention, and enjoy the game!

Are you waiting for the major "Texas" expansion for American Truck Simulator? The developers have published new screenshots from various cities and towns in Texas, showcasing the beauty of this region. 

San Angelo
First, let's take a look at screenshots of San Angelo – an incredibly beautiful city with many landmarks, historic buildings, and stunning nature. An interesting fact – San Angelo is considered one of the best small towns for business in Texas. 





Waco
Another city in the state – Waco. This city has a rich history and cultural values. Back in the 19th century, the city played an important role in the development of the state, becoming a true trade center and attracting more and more businesses. Prestigious educational institutions and various important establishments began to open throughout the city.





Galveston
Galveston is an incredibly beautiful city that is also an excellent tourist destination, as it is a seaside resort. The city once became a major trade center, but later the focus shifted back to tourism, and to this day Galveston remains a great resort town.







Amarillo
A city with a strong agricultural presence. Meadows surround this city everywhere. The city's name comes from the word Amarillo, which means "Yellow." The city was named so because yellow flowers and yellow soil can be found everywhere. 






But the developers shared not only screenshots of the above-mentioned cities but also screenshots of individual settlements that you will be able to visit in the "Texas" expansion. Can you guess which settlements are shown in the screenshots?
