How To Add Mods To Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2) Server

Adding mods to your Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2) server is a great way to personalize gameplay and expand what’s possible on the road. Whether you're adding custom trucks, new maps, or enhanced visuals, mods can take your multiplayer experience to the next level. But for everything to run smoothly, both the server and all players must use the exact same mods and load order.

In this guide, we'll show you how to add mods to ETS2 servers. This also works for American Truck Simulator, with the same exact steps.
