Was trucking along on the highway between Dubrovnik & Split when a car came alongside and tried to merge into my lane. He was crushed for his insolence.

TacticalGranny posted:Oh hey, I borrowed a thing: A wheel is great. Especially helpful when the truck gets up on half its wheels. I think the correct setting is 720 degrees of rotation in the logitech profiler. I just leave my G27 at 900 because I also use it for iracing.

Not sure if it's the same in the US, but Logitech has a store on ebay in Australia. Last year I got my G27 for under A$200 when they had a special. Currently they are selling the G27 for A$289

Some French Guy posted:So what is the best truck ? I'm getting to a point where I'll be able to replace my Renaults (that will teach me for buying French). Volvo for POWAAA! MAN for manliness. Scania eventually gets good, but need to get into the 20s.

I have been playing the Scandinavian map a little and it has some issues. GPS wants me to turn left through a concrete median.  I couldn't back up far enough to get inside the bay at the Volvo warehouse at Skovde. I gave up after a second try and used autopark, but after I exited the delivery summary screen;  My truck was tossed metres away as if Volvo was rejecting deliveries from Scania. I also made a short video of my next delivery. Towing gravel fast and pro parking

Made another video. This time I was towing  Starts with a 4x climb from bottom of the quarry. Movie maker decided to keep the sound for some reason. Ends with less incompetent parking. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1978DZW-UkE Need to get a Volvo for these videos though, a stock Scania rarely gets up to speed.

More lights! I must bring the sun to everyone I pass. PopeOnARope posted:Out of curiosity, which trucks have the 4 wheel steering? They don't seem to tip themselves over during 140KM/H offramp excursions.\ I think trucks that have the 6x2-4 configuration have 4 wheel steering. e: one downside is 6x2 tend to have even smaller fuel tanks than 6x4.

Al Harrington posted:I see being slammed into while climbing hills in the Sahara at 10km/h is still in the new TSM You can drive on the shoulder so the enemy can get by without hitting you. Passing on the shoulder also works when going downhill in the desert when no pesky signs are around.

I would say 1-3 points in long distance, then 1 point into high value cargo. After that its a toss up between more long distance, 2 points in just-in-time delivery, & ADR. ADR is the most lucrative, but the jobs are rarer. Any job can be important or urgent, so 2 points in JITD is a great investment. Long distance depends a lot on the map module. 1 point minimum is needed for the exp bonus. With no map mods you need more points than if you use a map mod such as TSM. edit: also there is a TSM 4.03 fix out now. Largepotato fucked around with this message at 13:05 on Sep 2, 2013 |

The highest rating guys currently in the recruiting agency. I really don't see how this mess that was added with TSM 4.0 improves the game.
