It is in many respects, the one thing that makes me panic so many times though, is the on ramps 😂 in game trucks legit stop at the end of them and sit there, also the game designers made the on and off ramps of many locations unrealistically short, like less then 300ft short.
I’m glad you’re playing ATS again! I also looking for NASCAR Heat3. And finally my good Mike and Julie got married also on October 31st as well. Congrats to you and Nicole!
Having a trailer with all those lights is a pain in the ass.. if ONE of the lights go out, you can get a ticket by the DOT. And depending on how much of an ass the officer is, you can get put out of service if he feels like it.
Hey Jeff did you notice that when you are customising your trailer you can match your truck to it by clicking on the truck logo in the bottom right corner
Dear Jeff Favignano, Sorry I'm posting so late, I can't sleep right now but anyway I just wanted to tell you that you are a amazing you tuber and to never stop what you are doing. I watch all of your videos, and I like them a lot. Your a great gamer and you deserve to have the stuff that you have. Keep posting your videos and keep doing American truck simulator and GTA and all of the other games. I have a couple questions about what you use for gaming so just give me a message when you have a chance. I'm a gamer and I enjoying playing games too. My favorite is GTA. Are you going to do more OCRP? I was also wondering about the vehicle pack that Blaine county sheriff uses for doj. Can I get that on lspdfr? Thank you! Have a great day!
Trailer ownership has changed ATS for the better. I can't wait to see all the mods that they will come up with. Be safe Jeff. Can't wait to run into you again on OCRP............
Get your drives in line where you want to back, cut the wheel till your tractor makes a 90° with trailer, once trailer is at 45° to where you want it, cut the wheel till your straight. -tipfromadriver Love your videos brother
I'm sorry Jeff, I'm watching this video stream of ats from 2 years ago. I really didn't know you & Nicole are married now!! Congrats on that & hopefully you both find a house to buy!!! Proud of y'all, as we say in Louisiana. 😂😂😂
13:43 pretty ballsy of that guy in the background spray painting the building right out in the open during the daytime... 😆 He must have just been fired from his job
I just found out that I am color blind, I get yellow/green mixed up sometimes and blue/purple mixed up sometimes. But for some reason the test says that I'm color deficient to red/green and the other two as well but in my life I have never gotten those colors mixed up before, they say its just because I didn't know I was color blind but I've gotten blue/purple mixed up and mixed, yellow/green mixed up and my family has noticed this, but never red/green. I 100% will fail the color plate test but I have heard of other test but I'm not sure if I would be able to pass those. I'm having trouble at the moment finding motivation to do anything right now (trying in school, doing homework and even waking up in the morning) just because the only thing I've ever wanted to since I was younger was fly and become a commercial pilot and finding out I might not be able to do that is devastating I just hope the industry will change in 6 years, because when I play x plane 11 I have no problem with the colors and I think that is something that people need to realise is that in my case I may not see the colors the same but its not like they're not there, For Example, if there's is an engine fire I know there is one or if the landing gear is down I will know that. I've heard of people cheating on the color plate test or even taking it to court. Im really just wondering what I should do, should I try to follow my dreams and see what happens or try to find something else that gives me the same feeling as flying. (Love the videos by the way)
I've been watching you for years and I really love that LSPDFR I watched it every day with my brother, but I would really like to see you start playing American Truck Simulator a lot more it would be really cool!
I just spent about 2 million+ on trailers for almost all my drivers since they came out with this. I own about 20 garages with 4 drivers at each. Having the refrigerated trailer earns a lot especially with vaccines and medicines at around $156,000 a load depending on distance.
You have to access the Beta, The method to access it is as follows: Steam client → LIBRARY → right click on American Truck Simulator → Properties → Betas tab → public_beta → 1.32 public beta. No password required. ATS then might update again, you'll have the trailer manager after that and be able to purchase trailers.
It's a little ironic that he planned on going to Tahiti for his honeymoon as he was talking about RDR2. Guys Jeff Favignano is secretly Dutch Vanderlin.
jeff you should have just went stright forward after bringing the trailer around. not sure if this game is just like real world trucking. yes am a real world trucker.
When you move the tandems you’re are either putting more weight on the tandems or more weight on the drive tires. It really does matter and has saved me an overweight ticket and a few grand a few times
If you opted into the beta, you'll have to opt out of it again once the final release has been released. SCS isn't good at giving release dates. They don't give themselves deadlines. They release an update when it's ready. SCS said that they released this beta a little earlier than they normally would, so it'll probably be several more weeks before we see the final release.
Why is everyone being so rude. I play this game and it is fun. Jeff, have you ever drove a Skoda Car? Its in the steam workshop on American truck simulator
Hey Jeff, A trailer mod has came out so that you can add your own lights to the trailers, Mine has orange, and red lights on the front and back, and green on the side to match my lights on my rig. It looks amazing, love 1.32, can't wait for modders to start putting in trailers, it's going to be amazing for the future. Glad to see your back in the driver's seat.
Casey Coleman I been wanting it on xbox one for a while. Signed a petition for it a year or 2 ago. From what i’ve seen of that upcoming Truck Driver game on Xbox it aint even close to this
You have to choose whether you want it forward or back upon purchase. Slide axles aren't a thing in the game. I hope it's added at some point. Turning is easier with it forward, stability is better with it back.
For deliveries, you can almost always choose easier spots if the most difficult is very tight, and both your trailer and truck are as long as they get. I heard the fifth wheel can be slid on real trucks for tighter turning; it's not a thing in the game either.
Nice I didn’t know you weee getting married in October! I’m getting married in mid October in St. Lucia and I also just paid it off. Don’t tell her but I’m mainly excited about the helicopter flight from the airport to the resort. Haha jk jk, but seriously
What’s a good place to get mods for ATS that work? Iv recently bought the game and I downloaded a few and they don’t ever work.. I just have stuff off the steam workshop? But o want some more choice of parts like pipes and what not
I believe you have to subscribe to the mod and then in the game at the character screen you have to go to the mod manager and select the mods you subscribed to.
Someguyto i think I have got that down to a T but I mean you see some people with mods from that site ets2 mods but for ats but I down load stuff put it in the folder for mods and they just don’t appear
@@mattie3349 Some mods you have to open and search for the scs. file, this is the file that belongs in that folder (I don't know if that is the problem but that is the problem I've had so i hope this might be helpful for you)
ive had a ps4 for 4 years and got sick of not being able to play this. i just bought myself 150.00 in pc parts and now I've basically played non-stop all weekend. endless mods and quite a challenging game. Worth every penny. ( hell i would paid 1,000s to do this.)
Cody Shaw lmao “challenging game” if this is challenging to you maybe you should play something else this game is easy asf and yes you should have payed thousands to play bc ur $150 piece of shit pc can probably barely run medium graphics when a $750 pc can run max settings so maybe you should have sold that stupid ass PlayStation and saved some money and bought a pc worth a shit
MINIJJ c on 3 different comments this bitch has replied to all of my comments trying to make me out to be a dumbass and I don’t know what I’m talking about when he is praising his $150 pc and I have a custom built $3100 pc so I think I know what I mean when tell people don’t get the game until you have a good enough pc and he keeps commenting going “well my $150 pc runs it just fine” not knowing that he has to run it on minimal settings and making other kids think “oh I can just buy a laptop from Walmart and play the game fine” when in reality that $150 pc is a piece of shit that can’t run a small game like ATS
@@z0ffi928 minimal settings? Yeah okay. I run enhanced graphics mod, and the sound fixes pack because my computer wont tie up mt 4GB ram and 3.4ghz processor not matter what i do. I literally hace 108 mods on ONE profile and it still won't break lmao.. Fps is running less than 60 fps, but i dint think it was ever getting that even without mods so who cares? Its still smooth enough looking at 40 45 fps
Getting back into the game. Just got my first trailer. Never knew what was special about owning a trailer. I just thought it added a custom trailer to haul in the Job Market.
Different axle slide positions affect how the trailer handles and turns, like you slide them up to turn them quick and jack them around tight, and slide them back for regular driving
We Owner's usually like reffrs cause the back haul out of CA. Haul reg freight out to CA and bring produce back. Wish someone would put all of the USA on it and Canada by using a map app. And this trucking simulation needs to be updated. When I say updated I mean a down the mountain mini game in all seasons. Those who are drivers know what I mean. Hold it back down the mountain too fast smoke brakes. Be in proper gear or lose it all. And to separate the pro from the wheel holder a nice 45 mph cross wind on the trailer on about 4 inches of ice. Hold it strait or go jacked in the median. People play these games and think Trucking is Soo easy. But it's really a way of life. And not that simple. When your life and all others around you is in your hands your way of life on the line. It's not that easy. I did enjoy the game though. But since it's simulation it needs to simulate more.
G4M3R POLITICO Incorrect, the mod allows you to transform the 389 into a 379 there is two settings for New Dash or Old Dash, that is why the interior is a 379. Jeff said he had it styled to 379. Listen next time, please.
I'd like to know the percentage of people who watch these kinds of videos who don't play this game and/or similar games. I don't play these kind of games because I don't have a pc powerful enough. Like if you don't play.
I don't play these, I drive a truck in real life though and I think it's pretty cool that people find my job interesting enough to play games like this :)
I drive a truck in real life for Sierra Express out of Chatsworth Ga. We run team California and back every week. I also have been into trucking games for many years since the original Hard Truck series. My pc is low end and its about 8 years old with a 50 dollar graphics card from Sal mart that I bought at the same time I bought the pc. It runs most all games on mid level settings just fine. I dont know about a percentage per say of people who actually play but I can tell you the truck gaming community is fairly big.
I run the 48 out of Salt Lake City :) I never tried playing, but I might. It would be cool to cruise around in some of these trucks haha. My jaw dropped when he was running 75 mph with 45k though! mpg's would be horrid! hahaha fun stuff
@@christopherclements5909 We run all 579's with pacars. They will run 70 flat out fully loaded. Carpet to phoenix / Fontana and produce back from Salinas / Piru. Bring home 1350 a week which is good money considering the local economy. 34 reset at home and then do it again. The company runs Washington and Oregon as well I just haven't made none of those runs yet. It pays a little more so I'm looking forward to doing a few here before too long. Be safe out there brother.
I want to know when they will make it possible to see your hired workers actually driving out in the world. There was an old trucking game I had that I can't remember the name of but you could hire drivers and see them out driving and set up dedicated routes for them. I don't see why they couldn't do that here. For now I just buy the cheapest truck and add no mods to it because you're not ever see it and upgrading the performance of it does nothing.
Steam has them in the workshop, but some mods are on 3rd party websites. You just download one of those mods from the site and drag the file into your mods folder that is found in the documents section
Hey Jeff first Congrats. Second I may have misunderstood you but when you were customizing your trailer in the beginning I thought you said that moving your trailer wheels did not affect the load? Not sure if you meant the load itself or the weight because it does actually affect the weight of your load. When your loaded you use that wheel adustment on the trailer to move the weight of your load more on the the trailer axels or the drive axels and you can also use the adjustment on the 5th wheel to move the weight from your drive axels to your steering axels and vica versa. Your only allowed so much weight on each set of axels when you go through the scales. If I was mistaken I apologize. Just thought you might want to know that if you didn't already. To be honest I was not sure if I would like this game because I drove a truck in real life for 10 years and thought the game wouldn't have the reality of driving one but it's not too bad and if they are still adding stuff it will probably get even better. I did notice a couple things already I wish we're on it now but who knows maybe they will add it on. Great Video as always. 😀
@@jfavignano I also believe in the game it axle placement determines how much weight you can carry, but it varies by like 600-1000 which isn't a big difference.
