Some things I have found helpful for Truck Simulation Part 4

-


 Wouldnt it be nice to be able to launch all the apps you need for Truck Simulators and hop in the game and go.  I find that I have a tendency to get in the game and realize something was missed.  To help with that I created a simple batch.  This script  launches all the apps I use when I'm running American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2.  


The concept is very simple and easy to cater to your system.  The key to success is the syntax used.  Lets review my script.

You can see that I am launching 5 applications total.  These are the ones I use when I play ATS or ETS2.  We have Simhub for my dashboards, HWinfo64 to report all that temp stats of my PC.  We have open track for our headtracking, steam of course or the game.  Last we have my Radeon Software for my Graphics Card.  You can change what is between the quotes and add what ever application you like.  

start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\SimHub\SimHubWPF.exe"

start "" "C:\Program Files\HWiNFO64\HWiNFO64.exe"

start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\opentrack\opentrack.exe"

start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe"

start "" "C:\Program Files\AMD\CNext\CNext\RadeonSoftware.exe"


When you are all done you just simply save your file with a .bat extension.  


Lets take a look at the script running.

  Well that didn't take long at all.  The find folks over at Reforma Mod have updated so we can once again explore south of the border in American Truck Simulator.  I must say I really enjoyed my time spent in Mexico when I played before on version 1.49 I'm really excited to check it out. So you want to check it out yourself?  Ill show you where to go and what you need to do. First lets take a trip over to  Reforma Mods Here you will download two different files.  The Reforma Map and the Mega Resources Pack. You will be redirected to Truckymods.io don't be alarms this is a great place for mods and is a common depot to download the latest mods for ATS and ETS2.  Personally I get all my mods from either the Steam Workshop or TruckyMods.io Then its just as simple as copy and paste and you are off to the races. Make sure you place both the Reforma Map and MegaResources files into your Mod folder in your My Documents\American Truck Simulator folder. The last thing we need to do

  Lets take a look at SimHub this is a stellar application that shouldn't be ignored.  There is a lot you can do with it and you will learn very quickly its a awesome tool to have in your belt.  This is a great way to use old phones and tablets and external displays for information on your favorite support game. Check out this picture I have a speedometer cluster and one of my own dashboards running on a old phone and tablet. Here is an example of a couple dashboards I created.  This Dashboard displays all kinds of great information on both the game and my PC. I have a route advisor at the top so I can easily spot the next gas station, rest stop or service station.  Below I have everything from my FPS to where I'm going.  This dashboard has been my way of learning from the elders of Simhub.  This is actually a Frankenstein of many great dashboards  I have found over time.    Let's take a moment to see what's going on behind the scenes of SimHub. We will focus on the fue

My time in Nebraska Well SCS I have to start by saying I'm really impressed.  I really enjoyed my time driving all over Nebraska this weekend.  I was able to take a good amount of screenshots to share.  I also was able to go live over the weekend so I will be sure to include that also.  I was able to bring a long a old friend from version 1.49 the Freightliner FLB.  I hadnt driven this truck in some time so it was nice to get back in the saddle.     As I was exploring I stumbled upon a couple fellas fishing.  That was something new that I hadnt seen in game.  It was cool checking out all the new rest stops and new additions from architecture to new depots and all the RVs.  The new RV depots are a nice additon.  The new state brought a lot of cool new sites to see. I figured new state new truck.  So I had to hop back into the Kenworth T680 this truck is a real marvel. I enjoy the digital mirrors and the quiet cab ride.  Its really like a luxury truck. A little traffic jam due to con
