Idaho DLC Northern Run in American Truck Simulator

[@austincody1998]

SCS absolutely hit it out of the park with Idaho! So much so that the lights on the state trooper cars are even accurate. Cant't wait until this is released! Thanks for the great content Jeff

Hi Jeff, thanks for making this video. I'm from northern Idaho, but I'm really disappointed that they didn't include the Palouse region in the game. It is iconic as part of northern Idaho and has some of the richest wheat farmland in the US. It should occur after the Lewiston grade around 42:00. In reality, you don't reach the mountains or forested areas for good distance past that point.

[@MarcoPollo77]

Pretty much captured that drive to Grangeville. I wish they would have had included Horseshoe Bend Hill, it's a true test of h.p.

[@Sereous313]

I was a bit sad to not see horseshoe bend either, its breath taking during the summer when its all green.

Ugh the nostalgia you gave me from these past two episodes. Bless your heart.

[@Sereous313]

Great job SCS! Loved seeing the detail of landmarks and the scenery in general. The drive over the Payette bridge and up in the mountains is one of the most beautiful drives you can take in the winter. I will definitely be getting this dlc. Jeff you did great saying Boise right, as far as cda most people arguing w how to say it can't even spell it right. Lol.

[@suomalainenpallo27]

[@3VOLUTIONMEDIA]

Love this expansion! Next episode can you take a trip down to Pocatello? Thats one of my good buddies home city and I know he'd love to see you take it through his home town. He watches your videos as well so I know that'd make his day 💯

[@pumpkinkingmusic6268]

I’m only about an hour away from me. I’m closer to Idaho falls

[@chriswatchingponies9877]

Yeah, That was a really cool drive. Thanks, driver. I'm always on automatic but i also notice a difference with the revs when i pull up. Even with lighter loads.

[@MirandaW006]

Last month I took a road trip from Gooding County all the way to Boundary. Watching these last two episodes is like doing it all over again!

[@jimbryant2157]

A week ago I would not have believed I would have so much fun driving a truck around Idaho! I saw your video (and Raptor's) about the Idaho DLC (I lived there for about a dozen years - had to move away for jobs) and I just had to give it a try and I love it! My wife noticed that I actually ended my game session with a smile rather than a 'rage quit.' And I agree completely with Jeff - very relaxing game. BTW - Core Duh Lane (VERY bad spelling, but correct pronunciation!). Thanks for the video!

[@zachscott8795]

"the 45th parallel, half way between.. the thing" Had me laughing pretty hard

[@FEEAR1000]

The realism and realistic weather/sounds make this game so much better

[@marktalii]

12:08 I am blown away from McCall's accuracy. It really makes me miss this state and Town. I went up to McCall every Summer for the 4th of July firework show :) 12:55 that log building coming up to the left is the town's ice rink. I have never been in it, but have obviously seen it a bunch.

[@farmertoblerone2280]

I only been to the ice rink down there a few times and it was great. We did curling and it was a fantastic experience. And yeah they got McCall spot on

[@CASKETMAN76]

It's crazy how the trucking industry is switching to Automatic transmissions but I'll always love stick shift. SCS did an amazing job on Idaho and ATS on your channel never gets boring 👍

Wow this is impressive. Obviously it’s not perfectly to scale as far as idaho goes, but it is extremely detailed compared to what I expected. This is so cool to see.

[@Kristofburger]

You missed both viewpoint cutscenes on this route: McCall at 12:26 Sandpoint at 53:25 They're marked with that purple thing in the satnav.

[@anonymousperson1726]

the weigh station are actually inspections i noticed last episode even though it was mostly blocked by the wheelcam it said the vehicle was not in perfect technical condition and to be more careful

[@mattcrazy7070]

I love in meridian. Witch is west of Boise, and they really did capture Idaho. They nailed it

[@ApollonDriver]

Hey Jeff! Made a heavy haul DLC transport for the first time today and god, it was awesome! Crown vic lights flashing in front of me, escorting was awesome!

[@celairgilfaenmirion]

40:05 That cutout on the right actually exists and is a great place to find opals.

[@Mattwiistand]

I drove a 379/389 once and its true they ride 10x better and feel more planted on the road. My current Peterbilt 579 feels wobbly in comparison. I love watching you play ATS and Flight sim. One of these days I'll get a pc set up and practice flight sim!!!

[@jeremy50681]

Definitely love the expansion! They captured Southern Idaho real well. The only thing that is not correct is the “old hospital” in Twin falls is actually on the other side of the road. Also, first and second street in Nampa is actually inverted. Second street in the game is actually first street, and vice Gerda. Other than that, I’m really enjoying seeing Idaho finally in game. They captured Southern Idaho to a T. The only thing here is Sage brush, sand, and the Snake River. Great place to live though!

[@anony88]

I used to drive a truck just like it. I also used to drive for a company out of Payette Idaho lol. Skipped to a random part of the video and saw Payette.

[@TS_Yuudachi]

hey Jeff, the weight stations are doing inspections btw, because (in-game) if you are too heavy (above 300,000+ gross) or have damage on you truck/trailer you will get a fine. I learn that the hard way, had 10% damage on my truck and fined got $300. Great video keep the great work.

[@victorm316]

That is how I feel with the mack truck. Have to rev high rpm into LL gear or it will stall. Idaho looks beautiful. Can't wait to buy it.

[@notaverb]

Jeff, if you ever get the chance, summer in Idaho is beautiful, and a fun ride on a motorcycle. I highly recommend it. This is a pretty accurate depiction

[@justinjefferson1888]

Don’t see 2 many 389 Hi-Rises but i love em! Please do more with this truck!

[@tylerpaul1543]

I bought Idaho today! I love it! ATS should really have longer merging lanes, more traffic, and Seasons!

[@PhoeFireaga]

Idaho is looking good! Enjoying these.

[@Lipard43]

Ats Idaho isn't up to the actual scale of IRL Idaho but they did a very good job on Boise and just Idaho in general, from living in Idaho for 12 years now I really can see things that you would see in IRL. McCall looks so good. I really do feel like I'm there because I have been there in IRL, its just really cool to have Idaho in a game because I know where things are can't wait to play it myself. My plans are work, and football practice. Hope everyone is having a great day and has a great week!!

[@nicksepulveda8836]

Watched the last video of the Idaho DLC but let me say damn it’s actually pretty accurate

[@jsoregonian9751]

I've lived in Coeur d alene for 15 years and that was pretty accurate. They left some stuff out and made it smaller but the layout was pretty accurate and many of the buildings looked like they do in real life. That building you thought was an old best buy is actually a big hotel. Lol

[@320ifly]

Idaho is such a beautiful state.

[@MsMoon02]

Hey Jeff amazing truckin upload. Made my night just watching your uploads. Stay safe

[@connor5818]

I live 15 minutes away from Grangeville but work in Grangeville. This dlc has been on my radar for a while but it’s crazy to think I might be able to drive past my work. This is just wild

[@connor5818]

They captured the truck stop on white bird grade pretty well however there are never that many cars

[@Jmrox2001]

I would never complain about the DLC in this game. They don't charge that much for the game and they are still working on this game so much it's incredible.

[@brysonmbs5985]

Hey Jeff! No hate, just wanted to bring something to your attention that you maybe didn't know about. When you stop at a weight station, they don't usually just check your weight. They also check your drivers logs, CDL License to make sure you are driving the appropriate truck with the appropriate weight that you have your CDL for as there are different classes of CDL. They also check your load documents and such. So when they say "inspection" its because they are inspecting your documents as well to make sure you are following DOT regulations. Love your videos man, not ever gonna stop watching because of a certain reason. Strong support over here from Colorado. Keep up the good work!

[@notaverb]

The lake in Sandpoint in Pend Oreille (pond eray) they did a fantastic job modeling Sandpoint!

[@jqb6XD]

Another thing about the pronunciation: If the French heard how anybody in St. Louis pronounces half of those names they'd simultaneously have a heart attack and stroke.

[@andrewhickinbottom1051]

Cant wait for Idaho tomorrow! They could make DLC for all the states and i'd buy and enjoy every one of them. I played the new version of ATS last night and thought the new ambient occlusion really adds to the depth of the visuals - especially the rocky canyon passes in Utah. Vegas seems a lot more authentic too!

[@andrewhickinbottom1051]

Also, i had everything cranked to maximum, and i was getting occasional judders like you did in your other stream. All i had to do to get it running super smooth again was turn my resolution scaling from 400% to 300%. Still looks great, and everything is maxed out.

[@TheGameFilmGuruMan]

Ah, the other route north. I always take 95 up from Fruitland, so I'm not familiar with 55 (the first 15 minutes or so). As for 95, WOW is 95 compressed. I'm rather annoyed they didn't include Riggins. Why? Because it's probably one of the most memorable parts of the drive due to being so frustratingly slow at 25 mph for what feels like ages! The bridge is there, though. I just wanted all the players to feel my pain. 95's been closed for a few days near Riggins due to rock fall. Whitebird being only 2 lanes is odd (it's a much, much longer grade), but the feel is about right-they nailed the cut at the top. Truck stop in Grangeville is perfect-I stopped there once for wiper fluid, found I was missing my oil cap (the underside of the hood was a right mess). Lewiston grade looks about right. I'd say the lack of Moscow is downright criminal, though (but forgivable if they include Pullman on the WA side of the border). They include Grangeville, a town of 3200, and leave out Moscow, a town of 25800 or so (both on 95), completely skipping the Palouse region (maybe modeling rolling hills of wheat scares them)-maybe when this finally releases they'll include Pullman OR Moscow (8 miles apart IRL, combined population of about 60,000-double that of Lewiston). They modeled the turnoff in Spokane, so maybe-and there would be a turn right after the Lewiston grade connecting to WA. CDA is about right, as is Sandpoint.

[@donovanw5199]

I seem to recall you played MS Flight Simulator. As I recall you could fly the whole trip in real time anywhere in the world. I would like to see ATS do something similar where you could have more driving content to capture more windshield time. Driving through Idaho can be scenic for sure!

[@neilporter3286]

You don't need a mod to avoid having to decide which load parking option you want - you can select it as a default in the options menus. Personally I keep the choice dialogue option - sometimes (e.g. If running late on a delivery) it is better to use the "I am in a hurry" instant drop option rather than bleed away money running up a bigger late penalty whilst doing the "Where do you want it" most challenging drop location.

I just delivered to the same drop off in Grangeville. As I was pulling around looking for the drop off I remembered this video and that you could just pull straight through the garage instead of reversing. As Im pulling into the garage (in the dark) my truck comes to a very abrupt stop and I realize they were the bay they gave me to drop off in is one over where the door half shut :(

[@jordierolandremillong]

Wife born in coeur d'alene myself in salmon that’s awesome🤙🏻

[@arokh72]

I don't care about scaling etc. To me these videos off an opportunity to do something I'll never in real life, and that's travel the US. The bonus is it's in a truck. I just wish they'd develop an Aussie version of this game, including some of our unique loads.

[@trentharveyson7313]

Yea that’s what I would like to mate

[@CityLakee]

I remember when Utah came out and in between S.L.C and Ogden was very small, still didn’t care because that drive in real life can take 1 hour with traffic.

[@TravisClarkThePianoMan]

I had the same thoughts. I live in Layton and while I was disappointed that some of my commute landmarks didn't make the cut (the Lagoon amusement park comes to mind as somewhat iconic), I'm glad I didn't have to make that commute in real time in the game!

[@RM-xx6fm]

[@andrejouan5564]

this game is really relaxing seeing the beautiful scenery seeing the trucks and cars being rolled across the road not forgetting all the details of each of the buildings and houses. It's a shame that during the journey you can't put on the music of your choice to give the immersive side like grand theft auto. Another thing why this game does not allow you to create your own character you could get out of your truck and walk around and admire the landscape of the place.

I commented on your last video of Idaho about the scaling and I wasn’t sure if you read my comment and took it as being critical of the scaling of ATS maps so I wanted to clarify. The scaling is not an issue at all, it’s just weird seeing all the buildings and landmarks in the Treasure valley so close to each other when I’m used to them being further apart.
