All this to make sure that at every step you take while driving through the wilderness, you will find something that can interest you and make you remember.

These perks will provide various benefits - higher earnings from missions, less wear and tear on spare parts, the ability to recover additional parts from repairs, or even reduce damage to the truck while driving like a maniac. We are constantly testing and adapting them to the game, so that they are not too powerful but give significant advantages.




[h2]More immersive world[/h2]
We've taken immersion to the next level by introducing a plethora of new sounds scattered throughout the game maps. As you traverse the dense jungles, prepare to be enveloped by the diverse array of wildlife calls and insect chirps echoing through the foliage.

We want to assure you that work is progressing according to our schedule and the game is looking and working better and better each week. We can't wait for you to embark on your journey.

[h2]Optimization[/h2]
One of the primary focuses has been optimizing the game's performance to ensure smoother gameplay across a broader range of hardware configurations. Our development team has dedicated extensive efforts to identify and address performance bottlenecks, resulting in a more efficient and responsive gaming experience. Through a combination of code optimization, resource management enhancements, and streamlined processes, Truck Mechanic: Dangerous Paths now achieves higher frame rates on a variety of systems.



[h2] DLSS Improvements [/h2]
We took care of a better implementation of DLSS compared to what you could see in the Prologue. DLSS utilizes AI-powered upscaling to deliver images that appear as sharp as native resolutions while rendering at a lower resolution. This not only results in improved performance but also allows players to experience the game at higher graphical settings without compromising frame rates. It only works on Nvidia graphic cards.



[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
We've also focused on fixing existing issues, and introducing gameplay improvements to make your journey through dangerous paths even more thrilling. Our commitment to delivering a polished and bug-free gaming experience remains unwavering. Our QA team, is working, super, hard to resolve numerous bugs and glitches. We realize that we need to focus doubly on that - no one likes problems in a game just a few moments after its launch.



[h2]Polished Gameplay [/h2]
The locations in Truck Mechanic: Dangerous Paths have undergone quite a metamorphosis, we have added a lot of captivating locations that you will come across while driving. These changes will not only increase the quantity, but also improve the quality of gameplay. Players can now engage in new and meaningful interactions in the game, and overcome new obstacles. We have paid special attention to detail, ensuring that every texture, weather condition and detail contributes to a more immersive experience.

Hello Truck Mechanics!



After a long break, we are back to systematically publishing more developer posts containing information on the state of progress of the game. A lot has changed over that time :) Our team was constantly working on fine-tuning all the mechanics, maps, interface and economy. Practically every aspect has been improved in some degree.





[h2]Natural environment[/h2]
The maps have undergone quite a metamorphosis. We have put a lot of work in expanding the environment and visual beautification. We focused on improving lighting, better vegetation coverage and added even more detail that will make the visual perception much better. The visual enhancement of the maps will make them more interesting to explore.





[h2] Exploration [/h2]
When preparing the maps, we also tried to think about people who like exploration. We have prepared quite a lot of interesting places where it will be worthwhile to look and scout the area.





[h2]Dangerous Paths [/h2]
We also focused strongly on the aspect of improving the layout of roads on all maps. Virtually every point on the map is reached by multiple roads, some shorter and bumpier, others longer and definitely safer for your truck. Only your gameplay style will determine which one you choose.




[h2]UI changes [/h2]
Admittedly, today we won't be focusing so much on improvements to the UI, but we want to let you know that there are some, in order to make the game less difficult to understand and definitely easier to play. We will elaborate further on this in future posts.
