ETS2 and ATS Telemetry made super easy

[@silverpuma7386]

I just came across you and am very impressed by your clear way of explaining things. I like the way you have taken some of the lesser well-known aspects of ETS2 (that's my love:-)). I've added some more of your vids to my watchlist. Keep up the good work, it's appreciated.

[@SimRacingLife]

Hey Silver Puma, Many thanks for your comment and feedback, that too is very much appreciated, and is always an inspiration to make more video's. Happy trucking and have a great day (",)

[@silverpuma7386]

@@SimRacingLife Just a thought but what do I know DUH :-) I've watched literally 100's if not 1000's of ets2 and ats videos and have never come across your channel. Probably the "Racing" in your title threw me off. You deserve more exposure and subs with the quirky (that's a good thing it makes you stand out I think) and the clear quality of your work. Did you ever consider another sister channel focusing on ETS2 and ATS? One last question would there be a way or is there an addon in a similar style to the GPS you added to the tablet to have a radio skin for say, an old mobile that could be utilized for radio channels. That would look well, i think...... Anyhow thanks again.

[@SimRacingLife]

@@silverpuma7386 At the moment its not something i have time for as i have a full time job that takes around 60 hours per week, plus i have a band who will be releasing material later this year so I've got many hours in the studio, so for now it's kind of got to stay on one channel. However if the channel really took off and it was viable to quit my job then oh yes i do believe i would consider it, in the meantime I'm happy just doing my thing and helping other where i can with all the various Racing/Driving Simulators. Thank you though for the very kind and inspirational words and thoughts, that really does mean a lot.

This is the best tutorial for this particular software that I have found and after trying a few different options (Simhub is awful) this is the best for a secondary monitor that I'm aware of (I just wish that SIM dashboard had the option to do this as I have already paid for pro version and I love all the available customisation options. Just one question though since we have similar computer hardware configs... Do you notice any frame rate drops say about once every second or two at high speeds in ETS2 because I thought it might have been the projectNG and natural lux mods at first but after deactivating them I still have issues. I would overclock my CPU to 5ghz to see if that helps but I don't wanna risk causing hardware failures for it to potentially not even help especially when I have hardly used the PC in the 3 years I have owned it

[@SimRacingLife]

Hi sorry for the late reply, i've been away on business. Anyhow to answer your question no i'm not getting any frame drops like you mention. however i did have this when i ran other mods a while back, not sure of the names of them but they were traffic related. Overclocking is something to consider but if you are not confident in doing so then i would avoid. but just know this, both ETS2 and ATS are quite CPU intensive. hope that helps a little.

[@DeanD1990]

@@SimRacingLife Hi, thanks for the reply. I've managed to get to the bottom of it. For some reason in the past I had locked my FPS to 59 in Nvidia control but I usually do that through GPU tweak so I had only been looking there. I had only noticed since I changed monitors and that was about the time I posted the comment so it was still a new problem I just wanted someone's opinion on it. I have already overclocked it now too and it took me 2 days to get it exactly as I wanted (endless reboots and voltage changes) so I'm not reverting my settings back from that lol. I don't know what I was worrying about now 😁 just breaking the 2ghz barrier on the strix 1080 and 5ghz on the CPU with a 105 BCLK... It feels like a new machine. Thanks once again though
