For player counts above 8, you MUST modify your local game config files; otherwise, you won’t be able to see your server in the browser. How to do that can be found in the section below.

More Than 8 Players - 128 Players ETS 2 Convoy

If you want to have more than 8 players on your ETS 2 server, every player MUST modify their local game files to allow for higher player count servers; otherwise, they won’t be able to see or join your server. Here’s how that’s done.

These steps are to be followed after changing Max Players in Configuration > Startup Parameters and restarting your server in the steps above.

Windows PC

1. Close your ETS 2 Game
2. Press Windows Key + R and paste this command.

   %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2

3. Edit config.cfg with notepad.
4. Press Ctrl + F to find uset g_max_convoy_size and change its value to 128. It should now look like this:
   • uset g_max_convoy_size “128”
5. Save your changes and start ETS 2.
