Passenger information
The usual questions
The things drivers ask before their first trip. If your question isn't here, ask it on the Discord. Someone will have asked it the week before.
Yes. openOMSI is a rewrite of the engine, not a game. It loads your existing OMSI 2 installation and includes no game content of its own. Any copy that runs the Westcountry map will do.
No. OMSI 2 shipped without multiplayer, so this server runs on the openOMSI client. Download the latest release, point it at your OMSI 2 folder, and you're on the same roads, 64-bit and faster than you're used to.
Not really. Install it, let it find your OMSI 2 folder, install the map, and join. The driving itself is unchanged. If you can hold a schedule in single player, you can hold one here.
Of course. The server sits in the UK, so UK evenings and weekends are busiest, but the map runs around the clock and nobody's checking your postcode. Just keep driving on the left.
Yes. There's no account, fee or queue. The only things you must own are OMSI 2 and the map.
Whatever you usually drive with: keyboard, gamepad, or wheel and pedals. The openOMSI client runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
Sign in with Discord on depart.cloud, then open your profile. You'll be given a personal OMSI name, like Alex#4821. Create your profile on the openOMSI client with exactly that name, and everything you drive on the server is recorded against it: hours, routes and records. The name is yours alone, so the statistics can only be yours.
