I haven't played the game for a while so I forgot which button does what - so today I just set 'em up like you and I'm back into business! Thanks for the tutorial 👍
Hey Just found your Channel!!! Thanks for that Elite Dangerous Video, I hope you have Been Safe And Healthy through the Pandemic. I Hope to see more Great Content, Good Work Fam
Im gonna try this out. My father drives a rig cross country I've rode with him and driven so i hope this is good Edit: THESE CONTROLS ARE AMAZING THANK YOU
This tutorial is really helpful with explaining each thing which is what I was looking for. But when I am trying to actually set a button for a specific task, such as shifting, the button I press (A) does not appear as my selection. Nothing appears as a selection from the gaming controller, just the keyboard. I have tried to hook the controller with the wire. The controller is being recognized in the one other game I play -- House Flipper. I hope you might know of a trick that could help me get my controller set up. So far, your tutorial is the best and most informative that I've seen.
The only thing I could actually think of is if you’re using steam overlay or not. I know that steam uses it’s own programs and shit to compute the controller to keyboard. Definitely take a look into that. If you go into big picture mode and then to the settings there should be a setting where you can configure your controller to translate for Xbox or ps4
Steam is a mess right now I bought $100.00 worth of games and rise of the tomb raider just started crashing and freezing on me I have tomb raider 2013 and it even stopped working
On mine. I use A for trailer brake, X for toggle Engine brake Right on d pad wipers, left d pad light mode, up d pad, high beam Most important one for me is down d pad which resets my camera position in the cabin, facing the right direction
This is so fucking cool. I thought the only way to be able to play with game properly was with steering wheel, I have a g29 but it just doesn’t sit right. The steering wheel is made for little kids it’s so small 😂 it’s to the point where I’d rather play with controller or build myself a racing rig with replaceable steering wheels
I got an issue. Whenever I go to set my throttle and brakes in controls, the settings reads the triggers as a button and not an axis. So when I go to drive and barley push in the throttle, it immediately goes to 100% throttle when it's supposed to be only about 10%, same with the brakes. So it's like keyboard where they are buttons and not proportional throttle/brakes which is what they should be. It was working before but I did something to my settings that I don't remember. I never changes it when I first used controller. Do you have any advice or know what to do? Thanks.
I still don't get how to set up a xbox or ps4 controller the game only has partial controller support I can go forward and reverse but it won't let me steer with my controller
Sure sucks I can't use my ps5 controller for this game. It works, but ATS will not let me edit the buttons or anything. I see other people are having issues too. I tried my nintendo pro controller and it works, I can change the layout and stuff, but only in the control wizard and not in the options you show here. I can not change it from keyboard and put it in joy stick or any other option.
This must have been before controller support was broken there was an update to the game that broke controller support so now controller are only able to be used partially
Do anyone has a problem with the wheel jerking full steer at various speeds? It cause me to slam into a wall and jack knife. I'm still experimenting with the settings to smooth it out.
It won't allow me to assign the air horn to the left stick when you click it in it asks me what button when I click in the left stick it assigns the keyboard letter for using it with a keyboard instead of a command from my controller
when on the green subjects while doing a job delivery i am only getting an option of "Num Enter" to complete job delivery but i use a TKL keyboard, how can i change that to a different button? PS: I use controller + Keyboard to play.
my acceleration is right trigger ,my brake is left trigger,and my automatic gearbox drive is right trigger and reverse is left trigger,the problem is that when i reverse,it doesn't back up, it just sits there and revs the engine,any advice?
For some reason I can move the analog stick in the main menu. Though when I try to set the buttons it won't respond. Any idea as to why my controller is doing that?
I don't have this game (don't have a good enough PC for games), but it looks like you're missing out on soooo many controls by using a controller since there aren't enough buttons
I need some help when I use my ps4 controller and try to steer with my left joy stick I have the steer up and down instead of left and right with the left joy stick
With my control setup. It's hard to even have or find a button to be mapped to the clutch. So I drive in sequential transmission. You might have to tweak it a little bit you add in the clutch for you. But I only drive in seq.
Nice vid, but when I go to controls I don't have the option for keyboard + controller. And I cant adjust the steering axis and other things. (I'm using a ps5 controller)
I always recommend to my PlayStation controller users to use this software. I do not know if it works with ps5 controllers but it's worth a try. ryochan7.github.io/ds4windows-site/#home
I have ets2 and it perfectly works on controller, i just have to connect my controller and everything works. But for ats2 it doesnt work, i can only use my controller in the menu but not to drive?
Try to do it from the steam at you should see a controller icon in the right corner when u at the menu for ate where you press start to start the game at
Is this working for the latest ats 4.0? I tried to set up mine but it wasn’t reading my controller.. like the gas and brake. It would only read turning right and left.
@@Eltorowey yea using a windows controller on a mac. might be weird. You might have to download an external software that can see the xbox controller on mac.
Setting joystick thru big screen? I’ve never even had to do that when I do my setups… I didn’t add windows cause there are not a lot of buttons on the controller that you can set to open windows.. I gave the most important controls to get the user setup.
I had issues too. Try to turn off steam client for your controller by going into steam and click settings, go into controller settings and un click the type of controller you have if its checked, the open ATS and use thier setup wizard. That way ATS will recognize the controller and you can set it up within ATS like he shows here.. Also you can do this method backwards if you are still having issues, such as go into steam, go into ats and find controller support on the banner of the game title next to workshop and stuff, then you can adjust them from steam.. when using steam you can have 1 button do 2 effects. Such as a long press. So I can click D pad left for low beams and then if I hold D pad left it will do high beam lights. I use this for blinkers and shifter using the LB and RB, tap LB RB will shift gears while holding LB RB will turn on blinkers or cancel them. there are trade offs using ATS controller support vs steam controller support. Good luck. Lol.
Really informative and helpful for getting back into things after a few months away! Thanks a bunch for your time and guidance!

Thanks so much! Easy to follow and informative.
Thank you for explaining this! I'm going to set up my controller today! I'm excited to get started trying out this game!
Thank you. If it wasn't for this video I would still be using my keyboard and mouse.
Glad I could help!
@@Satturration why is my steering up and down on my left joy stick instead of left and right. Everything else is working right except that
Tysm

just wanted to say i love the video bro, the last few times ive had to reinstall this game i always comer back to your vid to set myself up!!
Took me exactly 3 dammm years to figure out how to play it with a controller 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
the quality is not great but video helped me to know how controllers+ats works together and make me buy ATS, thanks.
Brooo you’re a lifesaver!

Thanks man, this video helped me out so much
Hey Man thanks have a Xbox 3 controller will set it up they you did it thanks again bro

Nice video! Though the sound is REALLY quiet.
Did you remember to turn on your hearing aids at your advanced age?
I'm feeling very comfortabel playing ATS and ETS2 with keyboard and mouse but I must to try a gamepad just because of analogic triggers and levers
I set up my xbox 360 controller and works flawesly but I miss more levers for clutch action :- D

If it does that in other games you should search how to change those rubbers on the triggers
Question how do you use the Jake? I'm having troubles with mine , I use a PS3-4 controller
I still don't get how to set up a xbox or ps4 controller the game only has partial controller support I can go forward and reverse but it won't let me steer with my controller
Thank You!
You’re da GOAT
Good job thanks
I’m 2 years late but just started playing ats and my controller still won’t connect
Are you hard wired into the pc?
Sure sucks I can't use my ps5 controller for this game. It works, but ATS will not let me edit the buttons or anything. I see other people are having issues too.

Nice I just subed
Thanks!!! Genio!

Thank you!
Anytime! 🧡
I did your settings for the controller but the top buttons when I press it for throttle it zooms in
I can't use lt or rt to move forward or backward
This must have been before controller support was broken there was an update to the game that broke controller support so now controller are only able to be used partially
In options controls my xbox controller doesn't come up for some reason
Do anyone has a problem with the wheel jerking full steer at various speeds? It cause me to slam into a wall and jack knife. I'm still experimenting with the settings to smooth it out.
yea same with me lol
What is your turn signal buttons? That is the only one I didn't see you cover.....
left and right bumper
It won't allow me to assign the air horn to the left stick when you click it in it asks me what button when I click in the left stick it assigns the keyboard letter for using it with a keyboard instead of a command from my controller

Check your break settings?
It doesn't work, when I try to assign my A button to shift up nothing happens, it doesn't detect my controller
Hi do you know why, on my Xbox controller the steering works but the Lt and RT (acceleration and deceleration) doesn't?? Thanks
good vid man
Thank you!
It doesn't let me assign my buttons
Thank bro Have another question though do you know how to increase your steering speed on your controller it seems very slow while turning
Like how fast the steering wheel turns? It’s in controls and it’s called steering sensitivity all the way up and ur wheel will turn so fast lmfao
@@blakecolden4635 Thx for helping! Always appreciated! 🧡
How to do ypu shift between high and low ranch like if your using the eaten fuller 18 speed??
On controller you don't, you just switch between all 18 gears, so from neutral you have to click the shift button 18 times
Here is a sub
For some reason I can move the analog stick in the main menu. Though when I try to set the buttons it won't respond. Any idea as to why my controller is doing that?
Is your controller wired to you pc?
I don't have this game (don't have a good enough PC for games), but it looks like you're missing out on soooo many controls by using a controller since there aren't enough buttons
Yep you definitely are but it’s a lot cheaper lol 60 dollars for a controller vs 500 dollars for a wheel and a rig that has enough buttons.
@@Satturration True. Wow, I didn't realize that stuff could get so expensive. Yeah I'd definitely just use a controller also
Yep I got a wheel and rig shortly after I posted this video and it was $515
Great vid, but on my Controls Settings i cant put my RT & LT as my accelerator and brake any idea
Does your controller work on other games? Or does it just not work on this game?
I need some help when I use my ps4 controller and try to steer with my left joy stick I have the steer up and down instead of left and right with the left joy stick
The thing is, the game doesnt detect the buttons I press on the controller
Great video, but what about the clutch? I like driving manaul w/clutch :)
With my control setup. It's hard to even have or find a button to be mapped to the clutch. So I drive in sequential transmission. You might have to tweak it a little bit you add in the clutch for you. But I only drive in seq.
How you are reversing your truck ?? I have setup the control same as you but I am unable to back my truck for trailer attachment
It just takes time and practice. (EDIT) And watch a bunch of people backing trucks in real life and tutorial videos.
thanks alot
Nice vid, but when I go to controls I don't have the option for keyboard + controller. And I cant adjust the steering axis and other things. (I'm using a ps5 controller)

How about the hub? If you need your truck repaired or need to get towed?
By chance do you know what to do if the control isn’t showing up for the wizard ?
I removed the game and re installed and still no option for the controller I don't know what to do.
The Rt and the Lt not selecting any ideas as to why?
I have ets2 and it perfectly works on controller, i just have to connect my controller and everything works. But for ats2 it doesnt work, i can only use my controller in the menu but not to drive?

Yes it is! Check if your control selection is set to game pad and not wheel
VexaloT might be cause I’m on Mac not a pc ?
@@Eltorowey yea using a windows controller on a mac. might be weird. You might have to download an external software that can see the xbox controller on mac.
I can't get it to work
Your screen doesn't look like mine it doesn't show a xbox controller on the right even though I have my controller enabled
That is not part of the game, and the app only functions to overlay to your recording, so it wasn't actually on his screen while he was recording.
Can put your own buttons or just follow the button you use
You can always put your own. This is just my control layout.
Just gotta figure out how to get the controller to work in the game
i cant see your throttle and steering deadzone can you share it? thanks
I’m curious to this being able to play it on console. Can you play with mods on it as well like you would be able to on pc?
Yes. I’ve done it for many years. I'm Asuming your talking about controller and not console.
The game is only for pc but you can use console controllers
@@ripperlipper1016 bro is there any truck simulator game for xbox 360 console?
