Stable release

Freight Fate 1.9.3

Published October 7, 2026

Release notes

Added

  • LWorks Radio is on the dial. Upbeat hits from the nineties and two thousands, with an eighties lunch hour, wherever you drive.

Fixed

  • The load you sleep for after an hours warning stays on the dispatch board. It used to vanish when the rest ran past midnight.
  • On a three-lane road, a hazard call names the lane you can move into. From the right lane it now says middle lane open, matching the lane change.
  • Roadside billboards end with a single period. Some used to end with two, which a screen reader could read as dot dot.

Release notes
Fixed
  • Sitting through a training course now tires you, about half as fast as driving. A multi-day course counts only its last daytime class day.
  • A course that leaves you drowsy now tells you to sleep before driving. Night classes are judged by the city's local clock.
  • The last weigh station warning names its scale and leaves time to take the exit in every driving mode. Closed scales say so.
  • Driving into Memphis from St. Louis no longer passes a weigh station that is not there. The West Memphis scale is westbound I-40 only.
  • The clock no longer sticks at real time after a slow merge. Changing Driving mode while moving now says it waits until you stop.
  • West Memphis stops sit where they really are. The Riverside scale is past the bridge, and the Petro and Love's are at exit 280.
  • Creeping up to an open scale, then speeding past, no longer dodges the bypass charge. Only a warning the game delayed excuses you.
  • A closed weigh station's check-in just says it is closed. It no longer chimes, saves, or counts as an inspection.
  • Arriving at a closed weigh station says its name once.
  • The state line on the St. Louis to Memphis drive now says I-40, over the Hernando de Soto Bridge.
  • Two real Arkansas weigh stations near West Memphis are on the map. Marion screens southbound I-55, Lehi eastbound I-40.
  • A hazard after the last weigh station warning no longer costs you the bypass charge. Time spent on the hazard does not count against you.

Soundtrack

The Freight Fate soundtrack: 250 tracks, about ten and a half hours, by Orinks and Dodecahedron, including the songs from Channel 3000. Most of it was composed with the AI music tools Suno and Eleven Music.

Playing with JAWS

JAWS normally keeps the arrow keys for its own reading commands, so the truck does not respond when you try to drive. A small keymap file fixes this: it tells JAWS to pass the driving keys, the arrows, NumPad plus and minus, and Backspace, straight through to the game whenever the game window is focused. NVDA and Narrator do not need this file.

Download the JAWS keymap file, FreightFate.jkm

To install it:

  1. Download FreightFate.jkm with the link above.
  2. Open the JAWS window by pressing Insert plus J, or CapsLock plus J on the laptop keyboard layout.
  3. Open the Utilities menu, choose Explore Utilities Folder, then choose Explore My Settings. A folder opens in File Explorer.
  4. Copy FreightFate.jkm from your Downloads folder into that settings folder.
  5. Start Freight Fate. The driving keys now reach the game.
