can u give me a link for a mack anthem jeff
It’s linked on my Anthem video
cool, I saw this truck at the LNYDP parade today.
@@jfavignano thx Jeff happy new year also happy trucking :)
hey jeff what do you use for holding your wheel and shifter? wheel stand pro?
I have to say, I’m a fuel tanker driver and this simulator looks so realistic! I want to play it and I do this for a living 😂
Who do you drag fuel for?
Thank you for your truck service!
Hahaha we get off work from trucking all day and then hop on and simulate trucking 🤣 this is the life lol
I pull doubles at night, and I love playing this game when I have time.
Jeff You know that theres two key Postions, ACC-Engine start. In gameplay options, Unclick Automatic electricity and engine start . Boom you have ACC and start just have the( In key and buttons ) Primary button has first click/ACC and Secondary has Engine start
I been riding with you brother and I think it is really cool.I drove a truck for 25 years.cant anymore.lost my eye sight.only one eye now not good.but could do that simulater and not kill anyone.wish I had one it's really cool.keep doing what you do.keep on trucking.
As a trucker I am so freaking amazed and your shifting ahhhhh really nice (I'm all gitty) 🖤🖤🖤
I drive an actual mack pinnacle for work and gotta say they did a pretty damn good job as far as accuracy on the interior, mine is also a 12 speed automatic, but engine brake on it is so weak because its electric and not exhaust type
I’m up to here. Top 1,000. Love the vids. And great setup.
Wow Jeff that button box is pretty close to the real thing. You really could not get any closer without having the entire dash board of a truck. So that's pretty awesome.
Rick there’s another version that comes with even more buttons and switches
I think you should keep the wheel cam. It’s cool to see the setup.
Put some fishing weights in it, or flat metal stock from the hardware store and use 3M tape to mount it that way its a bit more planted but you dont have to drill holes.
10:20 That is the longest turning lane I've ever seen and it goes to Walmart!
Jeff, I personally really enjoy the wheelcam, without it the videos are still really great, but the wheelcam just makes them that much better!
Omg 😮 the graphics are amazing
I was Hesitating before buying one. Because I saw this was also on CSIO website. And the whole deal with CSIO made me not purchased one. But I hope this is a reliable company and standby with there customers. I will be giving them my business. And be purchasing one for my very own.
Yes love that wheel cam
Oh man the wheel cam as well as the ASP controller just increased the amount of epicness on American Truck Sim episodes! Love to watch your Am Truck Sim videos like this Jeff. Happy New Year!
I wanted one until I saw the price. It is worth maybe half that... $125 tops, with free shipping. You could build your own for maybe $60. I built a 10 button, button box by myself (videos on youtube how to do it) for about $20. I want to make another with a key and the two air buttons at some point.
Love the wheel view as a truck driver myself it makes it more realistic when I can see you actually shifting gears and hitting switches very nice touch to your video
I drive a 2011 Mack pinnacle and the back light where the switches are, they are actually blue. I don’t know if every Mack truck is like that but it’s different and I like it!!
As a truck driver that lives where the shipper is located, I thoroughly enjoyed this. I appreciate the amount of effort you go through to put yourself in the seat, so to speak. Keep up the good work! Subscribed.
If i owned this game and set up like what Jeff has, I would NEVER leave my house lol
Brian Smith same
I have the game and a steering wheel+peddles but not the button box.....you should come over and play.
The wheel cam is awesome. It may not be necessary for all videos but on occasion, I'd like to see how you're shifting. Thanks for the videos!
2 THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE BUYING. I actually got myself one of these and the only two complaints are is that it’s really small. Like I’d say the video doesn’t do it justice, I thought it’d be bigger.
2: it’s relatively light. Unless you rest it against a wall or something, if you push a button or flick a switch it will push it around. Otherwise it’s a great buy
Get some buttons and a box and you can make your own for half that price as long as you are fairly tec savey
SPPD Unit A475 definitely
Yes please keep the wheel cam
I used to play ATS every day then one day I decided to drive real trucks... It's just as fun as ATS only better! You get paid to do it lol
I custom made my own box for games... mine can have up to 54 buttons/switches and 16 axis on top of that. made from a reprogrammed Arduino and 3D printed parts. My truck shift knob for my g27 was 3D primted and is tied into the box as well. switches in correct place for range and splitter. everything all in one unit. A HELL of alot cheaper than 250 dollars plus whatever you paid for the skrs shifter..
If you have the skills then yes, building your own saves money. But for the price your paying (I used to run a set up similar to Jeff's a couple years back) just I didn't have the button box. The SKRS shifter is great for this game imo..js ain't tryna start shit or nothing like the such
Yes keep the wheelcam
Almost there Jeff , almost 1 million subs . I have been a sub since you started lcpdfr
Happy New Year 🥂🍺
In my opinion the camera would work better on your right side and you could get everything in one shot. And I'm wondering if you could move the box closer to you eventually to avoid body movement and interfering with paying attention to the road. Great video and I'm loving the new box.
That A.S.P is so goddamn beautiful. I really want one for when I get back into ATS. I miss my Freightliner XL Classic mod, such a great game/truck
I’m using a farm simulator button box i got a while back, it works great!
Just bought three boxes the heavy haul, the boss and the volacity! So happy for them to come in!
HD42 Gaming thats a lot of buttons youll never use.
Chazefez na man i bought them for a reason. 1 for heavy haul. 1 for fleet driving and then i for iracing, assetto corsa and dirt rally!
Are you using a head tracker? Or can We actually avoid adding another button to the gamer box?
I was one of the prime supporters of the CSIO shifter. I received mine, but recently it has been having issues. The controller IC (a Teensy-LC) was held to the body with rubber bands! I'm on the search for the original sketch to reprogram one. Also, I'm looking to make my own switch box, but using authentic switches from a Freightliner Century Class dash.
You can leave the jake brake on instead of switching on and off
I just recently got a pc, but because my WiFi is so bad, Arma 3 is still *TRYING* to download. I so wish I could play games like these without having to wait for 24 hour downloads to finish. Right now I'm doing trucking stuff on farm sim 19. As always, great vid jeff
Edit: Happy New Year's from Ireland
Jeff, I saw a first responder version on their website, and was wondering if you picked up one for LSPDFR?.
I really liked the wheel cam. It actually helps people learn the controls a bit easier. Well done.
Not sure if I can, but MAYBE I can send you a badass, beautiful CB microphone
I like the wheel cam, gives the video a more personal touch
keep the wheel cam
Every time I watch one of these videos I say to myself, “man I wish I could play this” but all I have right now is a PC and not a lot of money. Thank you for putting these videos out there for people like me that enjoy games like this but don’t have enough money to play them, keep up the good work Jeff, enjoy your button box!
Happy New year
I actually drive a 2015 mack rawhide with the red lether interior...i love that truck!!
can u do more ATS with the wheel cam and the button box cam
It's a neat way to add a little more immersion.
I'm still driving with my controller lol Did over 1 million miles on ETS/ATS combined with it.
I just don't have the space to set up a wheel and other stuff. A bit of a bummer lol
Happy New Year, Jeff !
Just keep being one of my fav UA-camrs out here.
I'm wishing you even more success and happiness.
I started with keyboard, went to controller, and now I want same set up as Jeff
@@blake1995
I've seen some awesome set ups through the years, making me a jealous :))
My gaming PC is right next to my work PC, on the same desk. Attaching/detaching the wheel and stuff, over and over again really sounds like a pain in the butt.
I could use an extra room for an extra desk.
Jeff's set up looks very doable for sure. Not crazy expensive, and adds a lot of immersion.
If you got the space, go get it.
watchingponies I need a bigger computer and bigger desk but I’m not a huge gamer so I just can’t get myself to spend a bunch of money on that. I just use my laptop that is surprisingly powerful enough to handle these games. I’ve used some that can’t even play this game smoothly haha. Recently I’ve gotten into trucking and got this game and now I want to get a wheel and shifter with that box, that would be so fun since I have no chance of every driving a semi unless I go get a cdl license
@@blake1995
It's such an awesome sim to play. Takes me back to the times when i was cruising thru the States during my vacations.
Radio on, enjoying the scenery. Great for the Soul.
Eh yo, can you drop the list of mods you using? Thanks mate
Wheel cam with button box should definitely be incorporated in vids
Am I the only one questioning why he is manually shifting an automatic truck?
Yeah, keep the wheel cam. It's really nice to be able to see your inputs!
Where can I get a shifter like that?
Hey Jeff, don't know if you'll see this, but I've been watching all your truck sim vids when I get a chance after my 2nd shift job @ Mack Trucks.
This one is special to me, because I actually help assemble and work on the American Icon Mack in Macungie, PA. I take pride in what I do. Love seeing these trucks drive off the line, and then piggybacked to the dealer/customer.That pinnacle is the old model. The newer model pinnacle has the upgraded interior to match the new Mack Anthem. Hopefully someone adds the Anthem in the game @ some point. Anything you'd like to know or see I'll gladly help out.
L3ATHALBEAST69 I don’t drive a Mack unfortunately (2019 Kenworth T680) but man do I love seeing the new and old Mack’s. By far one of my favorite trucks on the road today. I appreciate what you do man!
@@ISniffRats thanks man! It's amazing to watch a blank frame make it's way down the line to become a complete truck. Where I'm @ on the line, I sometimes cover the job to drive the trucks off the line to pre Dyno. Great feeling.
L3ATHALBEAST69 oh yeah I believe it! If it weren’t for you guys we wouldn’t have the beautiful beasts we drive today, have a good new year my man!
Lol if you want a better experience get your cdl 😝the buttons are better 😏
Press F4 - go through each of the menus until you reach cabin adjustments (F4 3 times) and can lower the seat / lower the camera viewpoint within the cabin for the Mack. Save you having to move your head to see the traffic lights :)
Keep the wheel cam please
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would do anything to have that setup
Wow that is a decent quality Pinnacle mod, I'll have to check it out! Nice vid!
What’s cute is I do this for a living
Great video as always, love the wheel cam as well, fun to watch you drive and the button box makes it twice as great. Great work
Why not go all the way... become a truck driver.
naaahhh. you dont want to deal with these DOT officers and 4 wheels.
I love seeing the wheel cam.
I think you should keep it.
I am so jealous of his set up, I’d do ANYTHING for it.
even pay MONEY?
You'd kill your parents?
Yep
Youd get your CDLs and drive a real fuckin truck a d get paid instead of spending a ridiculous amount of money on a fuckin game
Love it. I’d like you to leave the wheel cam up. Would like to see some of the other button in use like cruise control.
Good video mate
What's this steering wheel you're using?
Hmm.. ASP Heavy Hauler? This reminds me of a really old Saitek game controller i used to have. So the buttons are all usb mapable i presume (just like midi controllers) which means with the right mapping and button cover plates we could use this with pretty much all games that require multiple button options.. use it from Railroad Train drivers sims to Truck sims (obv) as well as flight sims.. that inbuilt mic option makes this box really quite a powerful tool.. so i think this box has a huge untapped hidden potential..
I want this but not for $250.
you can build it for about 100 depending on what you buy for switches powered by an arduino
Awesome video. I recently ordered an ASP Heavy Hauler (before you posted this video) so it's great to see another review of it. I also went with the 90 degree brackets but might opt for the vesa mount after watching. Hope you enjoy it. Looking forward to getting mine!
14:51.. In real life dont use your jakes when its slick out
I love the wheel cam but since it takes longer to produce don’t stress yourself out over it. It you have time and feel like doing a wheel cam then I would say do it but if you don’t have the time then don’t worry about it. Hope you have a great New Year! Awesome vid as always
Are you still offering the aAS.P. Coupons for purchasing the Heavy hauler button box?
I continue to enjoy using mine in ATS and ETS2
What is your complete set up wit the wheel and shifters etc
I like this Mack remember me the 90s Mack truck on in Australia
My guy shifting an automatic truck lmao
Lol caught that too
Fucking dead 😂
Honestly, i love the box, but I, personally, think that I can build my own at home for cheaper. Good job on the box though.
Where did you get your steering wheel and shifter and all that from
I like your setup Jeff I think you should keep the wheel cam
i want your setup sooo bad :( lol
To see your setup, mine is basically exactly like yours. I have a Logitech G920, and I have the A+B, which I enjoy because you can have any transmission with it. It isn’t as realistic as the SKRS but is still realistic. I’m happy with the game, and you were the person who influenced me to get it. Thanks for doing these videos.
Keep wheel cam
I really enjoy the wheel calm, I would enjoy the videos a lot if you keep it.
Hi Jeff, I couldn't locate your email but I am really interested in your content. My family owns and operates CDL schools across North Dakota and Minnesota. A true blue truck simulator is crazy expensive and after seeing your set up in action I am sold. If possible could you get back with me in regards to what kind of equipment setup you would use for a school. Obviously our students get behind the wheel time and do it for real but there are students that struggle and this would be a perfect way to let them practice while taking away their nervousness. It would be a really great way to let them practice their brake check/test.. Also, is it possible to have something custom made. I would like to do a booth like setup with real air ride seat, shifter to the floor and 46" curved screen...I would appreciate your input, ideas or recommendations. Thanks
all it is .. adruino and some buttons and switches you can program anything too and a mic lol not worth the 250 usd and the 2 month wait to get one.
@@zessss3097 If you're a gamer it's not worth it. He's trying to build a simulator for an actual trucking school, so it might be worth it for him.
Definitely love the wheel cam. I say keep it. Happy new year as well.
I just stumbled on your video, I am a truck driver by profession and I want to get your setup where can I buy the equipment for this game thanks
When are they going to update it to where you can float the gears on the game? And love your videos Jeff, and run the rpms up on the Mack they like the higher rpms on them.
you can, you have to select advanced in the transmission settings. It's not the best because you can't actually feel if you've successfully shifted or not. I would recommend getting the no grinds mod as well as configuring the transmission settings.
Hey Jeff, what do you use for looking around in game?
Track IR. You can look it up on Google
I can say I drive truck for living and you can also driving automatic like a standard. It’s like a slap shifter . And Jeff nice setup. I used one in my trucking school to got my class ones . Thanks for the video.
Have the wheel cam
No, you see the heat shields on several trucks depending on how the mirrors are adjusted. KW T-800 and T-880, Freightliner M2 Business class, Mack Granite and CH600. The button box does look cool, but most truck manufactures differ greatly on how they have things like; lights, wipers and other functions. So I think he just went the easy route with some of the push buttons to keep it simple on his end.
is he using a VR headset
TheDahminator that’s what I’m wondering
No he has a sensor that he put on a hat and that's what moves with his head
He uses IR Track. It consists of a camera that sits on top of the monitor and an IR device that attaches to a head set. Costs around $150 but there are cheaper options. I use TackHat which is like half the price.
Oh I thought that's what he used the hat one I coulda swore if did a video on his equipment setup and I saw a hat with a sensor on it. Must have been someone else thanks for the update
He uses TrackIR
Needs a headache rack when hauling steel or for that matter anything on a flat bed without a head board or one hard stop and it would be through the cab and hopefully not you.
how do you turn the in game camera to see the mirrors, both of your hands are occupied
Track IR
Jeff Favignano thanks !!!
Hey Jeff me personally I love the wheel cam I understand it takes long to edit but for me I find it awesome hope to see a live stream soon on twitch of ats with the heavy haul button box : ) happy new year buddy
I just bought the American Sim. And got myself a Thrustmaster pro wheel with the three pedals package. plus the Thrustmaster TH8A shifter. And for sure I picked up the SparkFunPro Micro gear shift knob to hang with the truckers in this game.
Which would the most go-to buttons on the wheel verses the keyboard? do I also have to turn off the trailer brakes also before I can start rolling? I have a empty truck and starting in first gear in low. I slowly push the gas down and the wheels will not roll and the engine is running.
is there a downloadable set up I can download? and then tweek it after I get it installed? Sorry about this big message. i just thought i could get in my truck and drive out of the box!
where did you get your equipment from? Everywhere I have looked is sold out of product.
@csx what do you mean?
Is it available for police use as a police sim for LSPDFR?? Can you find out? I think that would add more to role play for all.
Why don't you go get your class a and drive a real truck?
This is more fun
Because it's useless if you don't plan on driving a truck, and it takes time, effort and money
Happy New Year Jeff!
