Appreciate you Jeff! Gotta do some trucking together sometime! Love the fleet style here. Sound goes so good with this setup. 👍🏼

My Dad is a Semi driver for Walmart Semi Division! I would love to see an episode with them! He just got a brand new 2023 Cascadia with a 10 speed manual! He has over 21 years of driving and I showed him this video and he said it’s really good, he said he just wishes pre-trips where that short and sweet!😂😂 Much love💜

[@billalthaus2070]

Grew up in Montana and love the game. Drove for Watkins/Shepard out of Missoula and Jim Palmer. grew up with the Shepards. ATS did a great job with Montana, Thanks Jeff

[@moose8128]

Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota are a few of my favorite states to drive a semi in. big truck stops, plenty of parking and its beautiful up there

[@Montana_Outdoors]

I wish they made the roads and area more realistic. I live in Billings and I don't recognize anything. Great video none the less.

[@Dandre181]

A perfect mapping would be great

[@grahamhill7913]

Probably because there’s nothing much to see, do, or note about a small city. It’s not like people come to the United States to visit a boring city. From what I’ve seen, ats does a great job of re-creating cities like Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, even Portland Oregon.

[@dfor]

@@grahamhill7913yeah Portland it’s pretty well modeled. The bridge that you drive over when passing downtown is the Marquam bridge and I drive through there every day. The immeaduate interchange after/on the bridge to the start of interstate 84 is perfectly modeled and the skyline in the city is pretty accurate. They even have the truck stop on the north side of the city exactly where the Jubitz truck stop is near the interstate bridge into Washington.

[@jaxsonrogie2816]

@@grahamhill7913 although portland is decent the rest of oregon is kinda ass coming from an oregonian, like all of highway 26 is gone and there’s no mt hood gresham or any of that, some of the most populated areas with high trucking traffic are still missing from the game and it’s kinda sad

[@hunterc9168]

They did a good job on Missoula

[@Jared_Wignall]

Awesome to see another ATS Jeff. Keep up the great work!

[@480spongebob]

I wish the trip was that quick. I live in the Billings area. Thank you for doing a Montana segment. Hope to see more of them. Can you do winter and frontage road trips? Hope you had fun at the 24.

[@grimreaper5521]

Nice truck and engine sound is so good

[@troberts2849]

Hey Jeff BIG FAN! I have been watching you drive ATS for 4 years or so :) Thanks for all you hard work!!

[@elzrbeam]

Hey Jeff. You must make the companies you drive for proud with how realistic and careful you drive.

[@justinchildress8434]

Nice. My mom used to drive for them. She enjoyed it .

[@stroidgraphics2831]

Sooo glad ATS is back in the mix for 2023, nice vid Jeff!!

[@mnmfreak502]

Good lord the real companies mod along with the truck stops really boost this game. Now they just need to add the option to get out of the truck and connect air lines and adjust tandems. I'd even like to see them add the option of HOS. Along with driver fatigue HOS logs would be cool.

[@humanbean7512]

Nice to see you driving a freightliner

[@gamingdad864]

Absolutely loved the video. I love playing ATS and also watching people play. Keep the excellent content coming.

[@ChaseEversoleTV]

I dig all your ATS content, Jeff! Including this video and the Hellcat video. Keep it up, man. Looking forward to all you’ve got planned for this year. 🤘🏻

[@davidzuleger6178]

Ohhhhhh nice truck....nice sound....as has gotten so awsome...let's see what ya got tonight!!! I AM watching right now.

[@GolferChris68]

Regarding the stutters... try removing JBX and just running Project NextGen as your graphics mod. Running two graphics mods that largely do the same thing can cause problems. I was encountering some stutters, and this also helped to eliminate them: -mm_max_resource_size 90 -mm_max_tmp_buffers_size 1000 -mm_pool_size 32768 Set mm_pool_size to half your memory size. I have 64GB, so my mm_pool_size is set to 32768. Good luck, hope you are able to fix your stuttering issues!

[@jfavignano]

Thank you so much, yeah I am pretty sure its the PBR roads that might be killing me but I will experiment before the next video

[@GolferChris68]

@@jfavignano For PNG, I'm running the PBR roads and the Base and Weather textures. So no issues with PBR roads here, but YMMV. Good luck, hope you figure it out. Would definitely exclude JBX, and try it leaving everything else active.

[@fld120classicxl]

Amazing run in ATS Jeff and great live stream on twitch it was hell of fun

[@jessebaker845]

I totally agree, everyone always complains because they have no idea of the work involved with these mods. When you mod games yourself, it gives you a sense of reality of how difficult they actually are to make, so you respect it and enjoy it so much more.

[@Railfanable]

Lovin that Detroit! Reminds me of my youth!🙂

[@caleostrom3882]

Love when you post a Montana ATS video! You should take a trip through Glacier National Park sometime, just ignore the “no commercial vehicles” warning they give you in game 😂

[@halflife103]

a thing that will make or break your golfing experience is the right size clubs. Having the right size clubs for you is what made me go from hating, to actually enjoying golf.

[@samboyle3094]

Love the ATS videos Jeff, whenever I need to get away from life the videos are a great escape. Keep up the excellent work!

[@danielkustra9071]

I don't call them super truckers I call them arm chair truckers. Must of them aren't real truckers they just wanna complain about anything. As a real truckers and a trainer I like to help anyone back because it's not easy and not everyone can do it. The biggest thing to remember is if you wanna fix a mistake: Pull straight ahead, don't turn the wheel then when you back steer towards the error and it'll correct it. Usually those little tips help people the most. You're really good at backing almost as if you really are a trucker!! Love the ATS content. I play ATS in my truck all the time on the road.

[@SocalThero]

Im a golfer myself. Lots of fun on the course or just at the driving range with buddies

[@kmgstrategy]

First video I watched of you playing ATS and I really enjoyed it! Please do more

[@jfavignano]

Thanks! Will do!

[@kelli1970]

That's the nicest Covenant Transport truck I've ever seen & it even has windows! 😁👍

[@jdtractorboy1258]

"You gotta force your way onto the highway" I used to play this game called '18 Wheels of Steel: American Long Haul', and if you had lets say your left blinker on, and there was a car in the left lane behind you, they would stop, they will stop for your blinker, even if you have your hazards on on the side of the road, they will still stop... That game is fun, little outdated with graphics but still fun, I recommend it

[@YACOBO_OFFICIAL]

Love the video Jeff can’t wait to see what you post next you inspire me so much and love the truck as well

[@tricolore31]

[@bdriversims8230]

Love the way you handle the backing. So realistic. I guess years of practice with do that for you. Thanks for all you do.

[@nerdypappy]

Jeff, man I love watching all of your awesome content, and really enjoy ATS videos from you. I have been watching you since your first guitar playing video and I must say that I always try to model my gameplay like you, even though I'm an old man. Now I have started making a movie in ATS and it is so much fun!!! Stay cool, I'll keep watching. OCRP is so cool with all of the new stuff!

i've always loved seeing Schneider, Swift, TMC, and Pepsi Trucks going by on the Highways, heh, maybe you could do one of those? heh

[@emiliovalenti2723]

Thanks for the great video! My guess for the stuttering is just as good as yours, more than likely a graphics mod or just too many mods in general. If it’s not a graphics mod I would just remove all the mods that you don’t really need. I love my mods but sometimes it’s that tough decision you gotta make between quality and performance but performance for me is always the way to go. Also, did those air brake sounds come with the engine pack or is that a separate download?

[@jordanb.7564]

Ah man I remember when I was at Prime Inc CDL school and literally reciting “ not cracked bent or broken” “no abrasion, bulges or cuts” so many times that on my actual testing day I forgot how to recite it the right way the minute I found out a trooper was joining my instructor lol but some how I pulled the trifecta 😮‍💨 and made sure I never forgot to to recite those two phrases during my pre trips

[@jfavignano]

haha I can only imagine man

[@lindro123]

Awesome vid as always, did you know you can slide your tandems, kinda , press f7 trailer configuration, you have to be empty though, looking at getting a track ir as well , that'll be a game changer!

Yes I know I want to move them while loaded

[@chevy29farming20]

[@PilotWinks]

My weekend was good! I tried golfing at a real course and I have a hard time controlling the ball lol. You should also drive as USA Truck one day. I am also excited for the new engine upgrade. It’s Desperately needed. I also heard that SCS is also working on audio as well. Who knows if it’ll be any good but here’s to hoping! I feel it’s probably the graphics mod that’s causing the stuttering. Only one way to find out. As For those who have issues with the mods, let’s see them do better. I think the car sounded great and a fun add on. Enjoyed the ATS vid. Thank you Jeff.

[@noahgall7051]

Whats up Jeff keep up the good ATS videos I love watching them at night.

[@rondacus2190]

Nice presentation! Good to see some fleet action. I almost got a job with Covenant back in '94 but ended up going with CRST instead until '95 and then on to C.R. England until '96. Hey, there's a couple of ideas. 🤔

a great gamerplay congratulations, beautiful video

[@OSN-News]

Hey Jeff, if you want those lags fixed, I have quite a bit of experience with ATS and ETS2 with solving these stutters. Beyond verifying your game settings (mirrors specifically), you should start by perma-enabling the console so that it runs while you drive and shows any errors as you play. At the exact moment your game stutters, check what error is thrown, it is likely it is due to a traffic model and/or parked model loading. If you do not get an error, disable traffic completely with g_traffic = 0. If the stutter disappears, you know its linked to traffic mods. It could also be due to a lack of SSD, or wrong launch arguments, or windows page file size. Of course, it could also be due to your Nvidia setup, but I doubt it. I dealt with these kind of stutters before and it was in 99% of the cases lagging while the console was writing a specific error message related to a specific mod. There are also some lesser known console commands that can be tested, and things to tweak in your config file. My game FINALLY runs without these stutters on high and ultra with a worse rig than yours so the performance you have on your vids is not optimal. You should not have these kind of lags with your setup, there is likely something incorrect with how your ATS is set up, is what I can tell from watching several of your trucking vids. Let me know if you want more help, I'm glad to help out.

[@gweggorz]

Excited to hear you'll be at the Rolex 24. Been there before? I'm going for the 7th time. It's an awesome event and the weather is looking great so far. Hope to bump into you guys there!

[@tee8046]

Man, I love the videos, keep doing what you do I would love to see you post some videos of some EverGreen trucks. The company is based out of Liberty, MS. If not them, than maybe an A&R Logístics truck or a Western Transportation truck Or maybe just a bull wagon being pulled by a 389, nothing fancy, just chicken lights down the side of the truck and on the breathers and maybe some lights behind the sleeper

I love the newer Cascadia. It is by far the best fleet truck. It looks soo good

[@noahater5785]

Yeah, that’s why I prefer to drive it more than the Peterbilt 579 that I used to drive when I first started out in ATS after buying it in 2019. Only thing I don’t like about the Cascadia is the Jake brake is a little quiet for my liking, even with the volume levels at the default settings.

[@spurgaming5400]

Great vid! I'm running a Ryzen 7 with a 2070 Super and while I've seen stutters, they haven't been as bad as yours. Mine are more like just a little bit of a slow down with frames dropping from 60 to low 40s. I sorted my mod order and that seems to have improved things for me but I wont say its totally fixed.
