Plugins for Euro/American Truck Simulator

Hi,

Does anyone know if the Linux port of ETS and ATS supports plugins? (Different from mods!)

The SDK is complete with examples for Linux (including Makefiles) which compiles fine, but the games does not pick them up. Game logs doesn't even mention trying to load the .so file.

At first I thought this was because I tried the demo, but I found some troubling comments on the SCS forums which suggest that they don't work in the full game either?

No follow ups, and no comment from the developers... So has anyone with an up to date copy of the full version had any luck?

(I was hoping to write a plugin that made use of the LEDs on G29/G27 wheels to show rpm or fuel level etc.).

No, it does not.

Sigh, guess I should be used to disappointment...

Anyway, thanks for confirming.
