Quick answer

To check your ETS2 version, look at the version text shown by the game on startup or in the profile/menu area, then compare it with the version required by your mod, TruckersMP, ProMods, or update guide. If Steam is on a beta branch, also check the game's Steam properties so you know which branch is installed.

Checking your ETS2 version is the first step before fixing mods, TruckersMP, ProMods, or update problems. If the version does not match what your mod or service supports, other troubleshooting steps can waste time.

For the current public-version context, start with ETS2 Latest Version.

Version checks are most useful before loading a modded or multiplayer profile.

Where to Check

Use these places:

  1. The ETS2 startup or menu version text.
  2. Steam properties for the installed branch.
  3. The mod author's supported version notes.
  4. TruckersMP or ProMods support notes when playing online or using large map mods.

Do not assume the version from a video, old forum post, or search result is still the version you have installed.

What the Version Tells You

The version tells you whether:

  • A mod is likely compatible.
  • TruckersMP can launch.
  • A beta branch is active.
  • A saved profile may have been opened in a newer game version.
  • You should update, wait, or change branch.

When versions do not match, choose the correct branch before changing your mod list.

Common Mistakes

  • Saying "my game is updated" without checking the exact version.
  • Using a mod list built for an older version.
  • Forgetting that Steam beta branches can remain selected.
  • Loading a main profile before checking mod compatibility.
