Marcopolo Audace v1.0 ETS2
Marcopolo Audace v1.0 ETS2
The Marcopolo Audace is another great addition to the growing collection of bus mods available for Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2). Like other bus mods, it transforms your gameplay experience by allowing you to take on passenger transport routes, often with a focus on specific regions like Brazil, given Marcopolo’s strong presence there.
Here’s what you can generally expect from a Marcopolo Audace mod for ETS2:
Typical Features of Marcopolo Audace ETS2 Mods:
Authentic Model: Modders aim for a highly detailed and accurate recreation of the Marcopolo Audace, both for the exterior and interior. This includes faithful textures, the bus’s distinct design, and realistic dashboard elements.
Chassis and Engine Options: The Audace, being a versatile model in real life, often comes with various chassis options in ETS2 mods, reflecting its common pairings with manufacturers like Mercedes-Benz (e.g., OF-1721) or Volvo (e.g., B270F). Different engine power outputs and transmission types are usually available.
Interior Details: The interior is typically a highlight, featuring:
Detailed Dashboard: Replicating the Audace’s unique dashboard layout, including gauges, switches, and potentially a functional in-cabin GPS.
Passenger Area: Modeled seats and potentially other passenger cabin elements for a more immersive experience.
Animations: Expect animated doors (passenger and driver), animated pedals, and sometimes even animated windows or other small details.
Skins and Customization: A wide array of skins representing various Brazilian and international bus companies are common. Some mods might offer customization options for:
Curtains and internal accessories.
External tuning parts (though generally less extensive than truck mods).
Destination boards (letreiros) with customizable routes.
Realistic Sounds: Custom sound packs are crucial for immersion. These usually include engine sounds specific to the chassis, air brakes, horn, and other internal bus sounds.
Passenger Transport System: Most bus mods are integrated with a passenger transport system, allowing you to pick up and drop off virtual passengers at bus stations within the game’s map. This means you’ll be able to accept “jobs” that involve transporting people.
Compatibility: Modders strive to keep their Audace mods compatible with the latest ETS2 game versions. They often work well with other common mods, especially Brazilian map mods like Mapa EAA, RBR, or other regional expansions that feature bus terminals and suitable road networks.
