How to do it
Hello truckers.

This is a guide how you can make Oscar's Realistic Dashboard Computer work
with the 1.46 version of ETS2 (and most likely also for every version after that)

First you have to subscribe to the Dashboard which you want to use.

Then go to your workshop files of ETS2.
This is the Default file path:


After that open the folder of the mod


If you don't know which folder you have to open, resubscribe to the mod. Then it should be at the top when you sort by latest.
You can also press "share" on the workshop page. the numbers at the end are alos the folder numbers.


Open the folder, you should see a file called versions.sii (The picture might be differnt but that's unimportant).
Open this file, you can do that with a text editor like Notepad++.

Scroll to the end of the file. There you should see this.


You just have to add one line:
compatible_versions[]: "1.46.*"


Save the file and load ETS2, the Dashboard should be now working correctly

Notes:

ATM I only have 4 trucks so I could only tested with these. So it would be nice if you can confirm it for the other trucks.

Tested Mods:

MAN TGX Euro 6 Realistic Dashboard Computer

Mercedes-Benz Actros 2009 Realistic Dashboard Computer

Scania R and Streamline Realistic Dashboard Computer

Volvo FH 2012 Realistic Dashboard Computer

V8 Screen Addon for Scania R and Streamline Realistic Dashboard Computer

Renault Magnum & Renault Premium HD Interiors

Have fun with it.

it's work for me, but I have hieroglyphs instead of right symbols. Does anyone know how to fix it?

You can also just remove the compatible_versions line and it'll work on any verision

@Mateus Freitus If you have the time, could you send another link to the 'how-to' of fixing this for 1.50.x? I want to do this for the Actros 2009 (and possibly other trucks as well). Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, as the links were removed I will upload them to the steam workshop and post links here in this post, keeping all credits to the author of this dashboard.

Seems like SCS changed how the mod finds the font or something. Not sure how to fix it myself, but it makes all his dashboard computer mods unusable.

Mateus Freitas Have you also experienced broken letters? This is also happening to me because the dashboard of the Volvo truck I am currently using is broken. I don't know if the creator will update it, but there is no reply, which is a very frustrating reality. Volvo truck letters are distorted... I'm not sure what's causing it.
