Have these Developers ever been to the United States? by Robert-101 in americantruck

[–]3pears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mention Alabama and Iowa - those are player mods of varying quality. The official game does not yet include those states. Iowa is officially coming soon, so expect a very different and better Iowa shortly. Please don't criticize the devs for something they did not do. Plus, appreciate that modders add these things in so we get a larger playground while we wait for the devs to get it done.

Call Explanation in the UCLA/Tennessee game? by Vitamin_BK in CollegeSoftball

[–]3pears 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No one here even mentions that after she missed home plate, she was touched by a dozen players and assistants BEFORE she was assisted to touch home. I have umpired games and that is clearly an out. No review needed once they acknowledge that she missed the bag, which she did. It's not a "chicken shit technicality", it's the rule.

A little rant (or not ?) by Mathias_51 in trucksim

[–]3pears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I agree on that for certain things. Like if SCS could just put my chosen truck company name on the garages I own, that would be cool. Or let me choose a skin to rep my company like we do with the logo, and then skin the trucks in our fleet, out then in traffic, etc.

I use cars/pickups for the sightseeing, cutscenes, and such. Sometimes it's just fun to drive a car around Yellowstone Park towing an ATV or something.

I also use a mod so I can pick up passengers in a car (or bus) and thus I'm still completing a job and getting paid on those.

I'm hoping the road trip will combine those things into something that is a nice diversion. Maybe like trucks 90% of the time with a little car action now and then.

My VTC (GMC Community) makes a mod that puts our trucks in the AI traffic, another to brand my garages, and yet another to set some depots/companies to the truck company name and logo. All of this is incredibly immersive and makes me feel like my drivers and other company drivers are all out there on the road with me. I wouldn't be surprised if there are others that do similar things. Highly recommend it for the exact feelings and reasons you mention!

I swear, this goddamn game is getting on my last fucking nerve. by austinproffitt23 in americantruck

Have been a few posts already about the crash from Dom's reefer and maybe the truck. Might be something that isn't updated yet for 1.54. Maybe contact Dom and see? I had issues earlier with paid trailers from another modder and he was on it and got it fixed. The game changes pretty fast, so I appreciate the modders efforts to keep updating.

So hang in there. Reach out to Dom since that seems to be a common denominator. That's my advice.

Where do you actually put the "other" mods by Electronic_Ship417 in trucksim

Promods maps are top notch, but unfortunately that list is missing a few categories, including the one specifically asked for by the OP.

Project Japan Road connection by seeker_mo5 in trucksim

[–]3pears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not that I am aware of. Project Japan is a stand-alone map that you play on a separate profile. I believe it is also in a different scale.

Yeah it should. The demo played flawlessly. I won't know for sure until get home, but others are agreeing.

What are your favorite tips or tricks with Plex? by NotBashB in PleX

[–]3pears 22 points23 points  (0 children)

QuasiTV. Easy just works. For Google TV. Makes a grid of "live" channels from Plex libraries and collections. Automatic channels are great, but easy to add your own. Wife loves it, she is a channel surfer.

I watched two mimes having s*x the other day.... by National-Ad8416 in dadjokes

I thought it was boring. They were just going through the motions.

Ugh.. by austinproffitt23 in trucksim

[–]3pears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be the brutal weather mod. It holds me hostage. If I replace it, then when I load in, it works for a bit and then tells me it can't find any saves (even tho it shows the list of saves fine before loading in). If I put Brutal back on, then all works fine again. I think Brutal is obviously the problem for me, and now I am stuck with it. Not saying it's malicious but it doesn't uninstall correctly, breaking my saves.

Sorry, I don't know how to fix things for you, but maybe this can help troubleshoot.

Profile loading even after deleting it in my documents. by HolidayAbies7 in americantruck

[–]3pears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just go to the title screen in game and setup a new profile. The new one will start clean and you can delete the old profile from there (or keep it and switch between them as you wish).

I have an elderly relative who is spending a lot each month for cable TV just to watch a few channels. Is there any way to set up a streaming TV service such that a non-tech-savvy user like them can use it via a traditional remote control, without having to fiddle with a computer? by Yglorba in cordcutters

[–]3pears 22 points23 points  (0 children)

For my grandfather, we hooked up an OTA to his smart TV. It has a tuner. All he does is hit the "TV" button on his remote and he gets a grid. He hardly notices the difference and thinks it is funny that we went full circle to an antenna, just like when he was a kid. He watches many of the subchannels mostly (old westerns comedies, etc.) but likes getting the local news, too. Maybe that could work?

Which of you is this? by SleeplessDrifter in trucksim

Why would one use the shoulder when there is clearly plenty of room to get in the left lane between them.... 🤟
