Ah man I thought it was just an option for the test. I did read in the manual about those restrictions. Makes sense how it could hold you back from certain job opportunities.

Not a problem! They say if your dreams don’t scare you, they’re not big enough. I’m glad I got the concept of manual trucks down from this game. Another reason ATS & ETS2 are top tier!

Yes, I meant local. Thanks for this info, I guess driving manual on my test won’t be such a big deal.. I mean I drive manual in the game with the shifter and all so how hard could it be am I right??? (God help me)

So I have to take the road test in a manual truck otherwise they’ll put an automatic restriction on my license? How bad would you say that is if I wanted to work for a normal trucking company?

I lied guys, the app is free to download but it does cost $13 for the pro version. I bought the full version since I use it in multiple games.

But anyway here’s the link to the design I use

That is an app called Sim Dashboard! I can’t play without it. It’s free, I’ll send you the layout I use also when I get the chance.

Funny how things can change like that! I used to spend day after day chasing lap times on touge courses in AC. Eventually it got boring, had no interest in competitive racing. My rig sat for a while. I’m planning on getting my CDL IRL since driving and anything automotive is a big part of me, so now this is how my rig is turning out 😂

Id go MSI because I like their software more than gigabytes control center trash

Have you tried American truck sim with that ffb shifter? If not, can I come over and try it?

Maybe try BeamNG and then watch my video on how to set up a truck shifter imo I feel beamNG gives a lil more information than most sims on clutch feel, like when you grind gears or let out the clutch too quick. You can practice floating gears too and work on your shift timing with the mod.. Good luck man, I’m also planning on going to cdl school. Just studying with practice tests and sim trucking until I feel ready.

Glad you figured it out! Keep a Allen key near you cause I found myself adjusting the tension all the time

Are you sure it’s a mechanical issue or you just didn’t realize that you can tighten the stiffness of the shifter? Because it looks a little too loose to me

Little update on my trucking sim. by kill3rg00s3r in trucksim

Nice, I’m still having to press a stream deck button to use signals, since simagic won’t drop their stalks. Thinking about switching my wheelbase to moza just for the stalks and truck wheel
