OMSI 2: Steam Edition - Aerosoft

Unfortunately, the official OMSI 2 Forum was closed on May 1st, 2020. But there is already an alternative! The OMSI - WebDisk forum, which has been existed for around 7 years now, has developed into a well-known OMSI platform that should be encouraged. The server capacities have been extended since last weekend so that the increased access can be handled. Aerosoft is happy to support the website operators and to give the OMSI 2 community a new home, of course with full support from us and developers.

The new Bus Mechanic Simulator goes into detail!

OMSI 2: Steam Edition - Aerosoft

Now the great buses of Darius are also available for real bus mechanics! The Bus Mechanic Simulator is the perfect addition for all fans of realistic bus simulation!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1011420/Bus_Mechanic_Simulator/

Even the most beautiful bus has to be taken in the workshop from time to time and show its 'inner values'.

In the Bus Mechanic Simulator you can do it yourself and fix the buses at your discretion. The main thing is that you get them back together correctly and ready to drive. Whether it is brakes, tires, electrics, motors, transmissions, air conditioning or lights, everything breaks down or needs maintenance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CY5iKDNjjsU
The Bus Mechanic Simulator puts you in the role of an experienced mechanic in a bus workshop. In the realistic workshop, you can maintain and repair three different bus models on four test benches, all of them were created in detail by Darius Bode.

Take a closer look at solo buses, articulated buses or double-decker buses on the respective test benches! From optical repairs in the interior to mechanical repairs on the engine and axles to heating and electrics, all facets of the buses are modeled realistically and in every detail. You have countless tools at your disposal to repair or replace up to 3400 removable components.

Over time, you can also unlock a separate, new hall in which you can specifically test the functionality of the brakes and shock absorbers on your buses.

Through faithful MAN buses, developed by Darius Bode, and the high level of detail, this simulation becomes a realistic and entertaining gaming experience with many authentic and varied tasks that have to be mastered.
