This time failed because i used some unlicensed brands... (they said)
This is copy of message i get from Giant:
"Certification Report
PC testing passed, unlicensed brands used so no console certification.
Sorry for all who expected today's release for console.
Will try to sort it off ASAP

Looks like at least a whole week of waiting again.

Yeah, really hoped for this map this weekend, its like giants don’t want us to be happy

Griffin, Indiana 22 failed testing due to cast shadows. Looks like I'll have to wait another week or 2.

The missing cast shadows for most shaders, sadly, are causing shader issues on consoles where the models would completely be invisible. So while indeed "cast shadows" is a minor thing, it is causing major issues leaving it out.
Usually those cast shadow nodes are fixed by us, if there are a few, but usually for maps that means multiple hundreds of nodes.

We're usually working with the modders in such cases to bring the mod as soon as possible again in console testing.

Well thankfully this is issue was resolved quickly on Griffin

what up with the all or nothing mod releases from giants lately. Seems like at least 60% mods are getting released one day of week and the other 4 days we only get 2 mods or less.

Does anybody have any word on what happened to the f350 from Agro Tonho or 82s 4 door 3500 update? They had both been in testing quite awhile back and now it's like the modders gave up or something

Wondered that too but seems as though they bless us with something good on each end of the lulls. That's true for me at anyways. So far there hasn't been an entire week where I didnt find something I wanna download. Not including their holiday siestas

There was a time there was no mods for about week, it's not new

Attingham is out the the modhub.

Been like that for months now, and it makes me wanna give up on the game sadly, i am suprised that modders don`t give up, considering how few mods are actually posted these days.

Guess we all have a bigger chance of winning the jackpot than seeing this mod on the modhub.

Apparently it's being re done has it had lots of issues

Do you talk about the Iowa map? And do you have the source where you find this info?

The Iowa map? That's a 4x map I think. The truck someone mentioned it on FS club page on FB.
