Eurotruck Simulator 2 Dashboard skin

Important

I am working on a new major version for this project.

Why ? The main reason is to upgrade the framework used in this project to the next major version. This is the case to be in accordance with an other development philosophy: It is to improve the knowledge and increase the ability to work on the project as a developer.

Don’t panic, version 1.X is still alive. Is entering in bug fixes only. All new features will be introduced in the next major version 2.X.

You can follow the roadmap on this project board

All project around this will be moved into the Unicor’p organisation

About

The idea with this repository is to update a collection of dashboard from the Funbit repository with the newest SCS SDK, as well as clean up the look and feel for a modern update to an already great app.

The first skins to be reworked are my own dashboards. In the future, all dashboards in the Funbit repository will be included

This project was based on the TruckSim-Telemetry-Demo

What is it?

This is a web app which you can use to choose a dashboard skin (Custom or from other truck brand (DAF, Man, Mercedes, Renault, Scania or Volvo)) for your device to use as a second, independent dashboard . See screenshots here

I’ve also introduced the possibility to change the unit of measurement to what you prefer. See the full list here

A event overlay can also be configured!

And now, a map integration!

It works on both desktop and mobile browsers.

Usage instructions

Prerequisite

Install scs-sdk-plugin by RenCloud

Download the supported version zip v1.12+ at the release page
Extract the DLL file into your game folder like C:\your-game-path\bin\win_x64\plugins\ – Note: If you own the Steam version, you can quickly access the game folder by right-clicking the game in your Steam library, hovering above ‘Manage,’ and clicking ‘Browse local files.’ You can proceed to navigate to bin > win_x64 > plugins.

Installation

You can use this dashboard without building anything.

You can download the *.tar.gz archive from the release page.

Extract this archive and run the ets2-dashboard-skin_vX.X.X.exe. That’s it!

Note: You need to start the game to see the dashboard

Use from desktop device

Open your favorite web browser
Go to http://localhost:3000

And that’s it :D

Use from a mobile device

Find your local IP address for your PC (Find how here)
Open a web browser on your mobile device
Access to the dashboard on your mobile: http://<YOUR_LOCAL_IP>:3000 (e.g. http://192.168.1.42:3000)
And voilà! You can enable / disable the fullscreen on tap on the dashboard

Note: Your mobile device AND your PC need to be on the same network

Tip: On an iOS device, you can add the webpage to your home screen like an app! When on the page, tap the Share button, navigate to “Add to home screen,” wait ~2 seconds for it to verify, and confirm it. It will go to your home screen and show your neat dashboard shortcut! On Android, you can do the same by tapping the three dot on the top right part of the screen, and tapping “Add to home screen.”

If you want to use another port, you can change it in the configuration file.
