Download Realistic Cargo Weight 1.5X Euro Truck Simulator 2 Mod

Tired of powerful engines and capable gearboxes feeling unnecessary with most vanilla loads?
Realistic Cargo Weight 1.5x increases the original cargo mass values by 50% while preserving the balance between light and heavy cargo. It does NOT set every load to the same weight: a light cargo remains relatively light, while an already-heavy cargo becomes a more demanding hauling challenge.
World of Trucks Compatibility
Designed for World of Trucks contracts in both configurations:

External Contracts – without your own trailerExternal Market – with your own trailer
100-tonne limit: Non-Special Transport loads are limited to a maximum of 100,000 kg for World of Trucks compatibility. In my ETS2 External Contracts test with the 2x version, the log stacker was accepted at 100,000 kg and rejected at 100,001 kg. The 1.5x version follows the same limit, but still needs its own in-game test. Loads below the cap retain their original mass multiplied by 1.5. Special Transport loads retain the full 1.5x weight, even above 100 tonnes, because they are not World of Trucks contracts. The same definitions also apply to offline jobs. Loads made up of whole units may finish below the cap.
