I`m Mexican, here it`s officialy not permited to overtake on solid double yellow, but, everybody, incuding cops and other authorities do it, and Hugooces (the map developer), has modeled the roads according to that. It`s not a mistake, nor an error, it`s just realism in the way Mexicans drive
yes paul now you got everyone confused on when your start the video as it ant ets2 it is american truck simulator cos i thought that aswell if it was euro truck simulator 2 you would of been in a scaina/daf/volvo/mercedes/iveco or renault truck not in a freatliner on american truck simulator and that truck i got it on euro truck simulator 2 aswell i have to do a review of it on there it was from steam
Hey Squirrel, at 2:50 when you said how the AI tend to pass you on a double solid line, I think it was made like that on purpose to portray how drivers in Mexico actually drive. So yeah, when I first encountered this, I wasn’t pretty surprised.
In Mexico you actually can turn right in red after making a full stop, and also here there isn’t so many culture of not overtaking in a double solid yellow line sadly
Set your Jake Brake as your left flappy paddle and your trailer brake to your right flappy paddle. Most trailer brakes are on the right side. Then when your are on an uphill hold the trailer brake, that keeps it from rolling, but the truck brakes are disengaged which slips the clutch and acts like an automatic trans "stall torque converter."
12:00 Oh the innocence Squirrel, Oversized trucks often drive above the speed limit, and the escorting cars tend to push everybody out of the way soo that they can pass then, this way they can somewhat compensate the fact that they can only drive during the day light hours.
Good to have You back in the trucks again Paul, But im so sorry you are lost in Europe to me it looks like we are in USA. When I went to school in the early days, we learned that Mexico was a part of America. so if that didn't changed for the past 35 years, we are not in ETS2 but ATS what it also looks like. Yea yea i know you come a lot around in the world in your games. Just a little bit of information so you do not drive wrong and turn towards Hamburg, so it will be a long video. LOL keep on truckin and no hard feelings about your Little mistake about where we are.
I doubt its modeled but the torque converter in an automatic transmission does multiply torque and could allow a truck to start moving in a situation where a manual wouldnt.
I think it's a design decision to make it easier for non hardcore players. Hardcore players will use manual shifting, so they use the realistic system. More casual players will use automatic shifting and the devs probably made it so that on automatic, a truck will always be able to start. Even if it's on a steep hill. (seems like a good decision to me by te way)
I think too that the game engine was more designed for automatic driving. But the automatic used isn't so much like a car auto, with torque converter and such, it just means the game takes care of shifting and working the clutch.
Boy, do Mexicans love their speed bumps. Every 5 miles on major roads AT LEAST. Plus they like to drive rather quickly on the highways UNTIL you hit an exit ramp (which too is littered with speed bumps) then it's a snails pace. The vehicles in game are actually moving too fast for it. Imagine going on a ramp at the same speed as if you were looking for a place to park you car in a parking lot/Car park. That is genuinely how slow the drive on exit ramps.
For anyone that cares, a scraper is actually for scraping topsoil from an area. It’s what creates the large jump shaped hills in construction sites/fields. The top soil is scraped and removed before building on the land. The soil is screened and sold as topsoil.
A scraper like that is not so much to scrape up existing road, that would be the asphalt miller. Scraper is more for scraping up dirt, more in prep for making a new road. Can make the dirt fairly level much faster than say a dozer would, especially if the terrain is already pretty close to what you need.
the earth mover on the trailer is used mostly for making new subdivisions by moving earth from one part of the subdivision to the other more quickly then loading tractor trailers, they are used on road work but not for removing asphalt
My truck at work has an Eaton 10 speed. It's a flatbed International 8100 with a Cummins M11. I usually take off in 4th when empty up to about 10K lbs. I start in 3rd when 10-16K. 2nd from 16-24K (max load). I only use 1st in steep hills or if I need to crawl forward. Normally you do not have split geats in Eaton 10's. Usually, it's a dogleg 1st/6th gear with a high low range. Reverse above 1st/6th. Every Eaton 10 I have driven works like that. Never seen one with a splitter. Just a range selector.
You can do anything in Mexico. Those cars overtaking you on double solid is actually accurate. I remember my grandpa driving 140 on a 2 lane road overtaking trucks going the same speed.
When I was in Mexico, I read a sign at the airport saying bien venido en Stados Unidos Mexicanos. So based on that, they probably call the regions "states" not provinces.
It’s a great vid, but the FLB deserves a more indepth video. The amount of work is this truck is amazing! 90% of the switches are animated on the dash and the huge amount of customisation that can be done is superb!
Just FYI I don't know if you guys do this in Europe, but in North America if you're going up a hill and you're going slow then you put your hazards on.
im Venezuelan, you can say it without a "S" like this for singular "Policia acostado" but in plural is "policias acostados" con la "S" i i think i did a mistake in the translation a better one should be "sleeping policeman" which is also funny.
~ 15:00 automatic gearboxes can have torque convertor instead of / with clutch that simlpy ups your torque at the expense of fuel economy if your motor has more RPM than is apropriate for your actual gear and speed.
In Mexico City there is no right turn on red but I can’t confirm if it’s the same on other states. I do sometimes however turn right on red if there is no traffic coming. Also speed bumps are everywhere and the little ones that are on the highways are used to make you reduce your speed before turns.
punk rock trucker are you telling me I’ve been pronouncing Gallardo (as in Lamborghini Gallardo) wrong my whole life? WHAT!? Why hasn’t anyone said anything! This is an outrage.
Please do more vids like these with this truck I enjoyed watching this also I haven't been that far down in Mexico yet and it is a gorgeous map doing a great job Paul
As someone who's been to mexico a few times recently, them overtaking you on a double solid line is perfectly in line with the driving habits of the locals, illegal tho it may be :)
the AI in ETS and ATS when you are plummeling down the street with oversized load "hurrr durr that is normal let me just drive out right in front of that truck they can stop in time"
Very nice Paul. I'm using this map+ the extreme add on along with Coast 2 Coast and Canadream maps. It feels like a beautiful and big North American Combo! As I'm quite new to ATS I feel very confortable to see that those map mods are going to a similar direction as we find on Ets2 map mods such as Promods, Rusmap and Southern Region. Also, I'm using the same truck and I'm really enjoying it. It's simple, with a decent customization options and the engine sound is great. I do prefer this kind of truck model on ATS tho. Anyways, thank you for this vid and congrats for your work!
In Mexico, right turns on red are generally allowed unless a sign indicates otherwise.[8] Mexico City has implemented a new transit law which prohibits right turns and motorists can be issued a citation for noncompliance.[9
The reason an auto works better on a hill start is because the way a torque converter works it effectively gives you half gears which has the effect of doubling your torque to the wheels.
I saw once that you can disable the "sincromesh" from the manual shifting, so that you have to sinchronize every gear change by yourself, maybe that would let you do some "clutch riding"... Sorry if I'm wrong
U love your cab overs. Once I started playing ats I couldn't go back to using cab overs. Probably cos I'm from Australia. Oh and by tha way scapers are not for digging up the road there for scrapping up big piles of dirt and moving it to another location. Thay also have 2 engine's. Keep up the good work Paul. Cheers from Australia.
You nailed it with the states names and yes there are a lot of speed bumps (topes in Spanish) and they are evil, all the checkpoints are because you are driving in narcos territory so this is a very accurate mod.
Commander Piglet Absolutely: Eaton Fuller 10 speed is (upper row) - R 2 4 then (lower row) - 1 3 5. Only have range change so you go back to 1st position for 6th gear: (upper row) - 7 9 then (lower row) - 6 8 10
1st gear starts uphill: you may want to engage your differential without going into automatic....? works on rough ground/mine roads with heavy loads on ETS2 . What you really need in the sim is a deep 2 and deep 1 gear for a uphill start.
You can turn right on red in Mexico too, unless there is a sing that says you can't. And they are called states too! Also even thou illegal, many people will overtake even with solid double yellow lines. In some cities drivers are very aggressive in their driving.
Umm, Paul...that's an SCS Heavy Cargo Pack trailer you just drove! Yep, buy that pack, get that trailer, and make progress on the Heavy Cargo achievement if you havn't done it before! LOL Seriously though...great vid, and I'm going to have to look into that map mod at some point. The FLB though...I've been using one for the Big Sur jobs, since it can squeeze into the construction area far better than my usual Kenworths.
Squirrel I’m from Mexico and you are correct just last year the laws were changed and they prohibited turning right on red and Mexico is divided in states, I’d invite you to check the detail in some of the buildings in the map like the gas stations, etc.
Speed bumps are common in Mexico but those small speed bums you hit when entering a highway are some kind of indicator that advices you to control your speed in that zone
The roads around the 21 minute mark are just like here, doesn't look like much and then your airborne lol and I love the game, it's such a good game especially with all the insane mods, I just wish I could afford a decent wheel setup, the cheapest one I found was 540 dollars, if I'm gonna drop that kind of cash on something like that it would take at least 2 years of saving and I've been saving for a better computer instead which is more important overall
Cool man, I'm an Ohio native living in Mexico City. I was just in Chihuahua City last weekend for a wedding and a bit of hiking in Majalca. Nice place :)
Changing to Simple Automatic does not grant extra torque. The reason the engine is cutting out is because you're lifting the your foot too fast from the clutch. The way to climb in first gear is to gently lift the clutch and slowly begin applying the accelerator pedal. Exactly like how it would be in a real manual transmission truck.
The states in Mexico are called states. Like in the US, right turn stop and yield on red varies by locality. It is legal in most places in Mexico. Cars overtaking on a solid yellow is illegal but people do it all the time in Mexico so it may be an unintentionally accurate bug or maybe the mod designer has a sense of humour.
Are you every going to do the last two episodes of trucking school. I would love if you could do that or do a video on how to drive the truck with retarder, engine brake, air brake simulation, manual gear shifting, and all of that stuff?
Last Eaton 10-speed I drove you can't split any of the gears and usually I can start out with second if empty go through 5th hit the range selector and then start at 6th up to gear 10
I never noticed the problem you experienced with being unable to move in first up a hill, while the automatic transmission can... they should definitely fix that bug.
I`m Mexican, here it`s officialy not permited to overtake on solid double yellow, but, everybody, incuding cops and other authorities do it, and Hugooces (the map developer), has modeled the roads according to that. It`s not a mistake, nor an error, it`s just realism in the way Mexicans drive
PBimagen That’s what I was thinking. I’ve never been to Mexico but I hear there’s some pretty crazy driving that happens there.
Haha there is, although we are not the worst . But we`re still pretty bad
0:06 Ummm I'm pretty sure this is ATS, Paul.. ;)
xD
D'oh! My bad.
Yeah when I heard that I was kinda confused for a second
"Welcome back to another EuroTruck video.. And we are in Mexico!" 😂
yes paul now you got everyone confused on when your start the video as it ant ets2 it is american truck simulator cos i thought that aswell if it was euro truck simulator 2 you would of been in a scaina/daf/volvo/mercedes/iveco or renault truck not in a freatliner on american truck simulator and that truck i got it on euro truck simulator 2 aswell i have to do a review of it on there it was from steam

The trailer is from the Heavy cargo pack DLC, it’s even shown in the DLC thumbnail. That being said, great job backing an articulated trailer.
Set your Jake Brake as your left flappy paddle and your trailer brake to your right flappy paddle. Most trailer brakes are on the right side. Then when your are on an uphill hold the trailer brake, that keeps it from rolling, but the truck brakes are disengaged which slips the clutch and acts like an automatic trans "stall torque converter."
He's got a wheel?
12:00 Oh the innocence Squirrel, Oversized trucks often drive above the speed limit, and the escorting cars tend to push everybody out of the way soo that they can pass then, this way they can somewhat compensate the fact that they can only drive during the day light hours.

I like how well this map mod is optimized! No framedrop at all, and urban areas are pretty dense!
Scrappers are used in road construction with graders to level the ground. Asphalt millers remove old asphalt.
Um...what is that coach doing driving down there? 9:56
The bus driver is drunk
Appear from nowhere :))
Noticed too
In USA we call them buses, but yes, it was weird he was driving aganist traffic.
Pete_ Hine_Of_PA I must be only one that calls it both coach and bus

mexican law allows right turn on red with caution (varies by state)
TechHub there is literally no such thing as Mexican law. You can buy your way out of anything.

They actually are states, the full name of Mexico is United Mexican States.
that does not make any sense
Nickgaming SFM why? 😂
Anyone else notice the title says “American Truck Simulator” then in the video he says “Euro Truck” haha 😂
yep i noticed that
Exzibit Gaming Sometimes I wonder if he actually watches his videos before putting them out.
Exzibit Gaming everyone noticed
But it is ats not ets cause he is using coast 2 coast viva Mexico
You can do anything in Mexico. Those cars overtaking you on double solid is actually accurate. I remember my grandpa driving 140 on a 2 lane road overtaking trucks going the same speed.
The map should expand east with Monterrey and Nuevo Laredo-Laredo, USA (major inland port to the US).
Run coast to coast along with U.S expansion and Viva Mexico. Then you'll have damn near every city town area, etc.
great video. Im glad that you are uploading ATS and ETS on the channel again
When I was in Mexico, I read a sign at the airport saying bien venido en Stados Unidos Mexicanos. So based on that, they probably call the regions "states" not provinces.
They are called states and the official name of Mexico is the United Mexican states or Estados Unidos mexicanos
It’s a great vid, but the FLB deserves a more indepth video. The amount of work is this truck is amazing! 90% of the switches are animated on the dash and the huge amount of customisation that can be done is superb!
Just FYI I don't know if you guys do this in Europe, but in North America if you're going up a hill and you're going slow then you put your hazards on.
I always catch myself doing that in the game
Congratulations on the parking. That's a tough one even without the long trailer blocking the turn in.
The speed bumps are called "topes" and they are terrible on a motorcycle
They are a terrible Idea in general.
in my country they are called "Policias acostados" or "Lying police man"
Mauricio Plaza haha! You’re Dominican? I don’t think the first s is pronounced. At least that’s what my coworkers taught me.

3:15 I am absolutely sure you *can* turn right on red.
I'm not sure if it's legal or not, but you can definitely do it.
I grew up on a Salt mine
They would use scrappers like that to harvest the salt after the water evaporated
oh man, all the familiarity in style... its nice, all we need is a map this detailed of canada...

do the Mexican maps work with Coast to Coast?
You nailed it with the states names and yes there are a lot of speed bumps (topes in Spanish) and they are evil, all the checkpoints are because you are driving in narcos territory so this is a very accurate mod.
Dang that mod is awesome, pretty accurate.
Your shifter layout is wrong... Yours is set to be for a 13 speed. 10 speed doesn't use the splitter
Commander Piglet Absolutely: Eaton Fuller 10 speed is (upper row) - R 2 4 then (lower row) - 1 3 5. Only have range change so you go back to 1st position for 6th gear: (upper row) - 7 9 then (lower row) - 6 8 10
Exactly.
1st gear starts uphill: you may want to engage your differential without
going into automatic....? works on rough ground/mine roads with heavy loads
on ETS2 . What you really need in the sim is a deep 2 and deep 1 gear
for a uphill start.
I miss trucking Diaries Eu
Dam, that's my fav truck from 18 wos alh days and i wanted to see it officialy in ATS as well. Manly truck, so b-e-autifull !!!!!!
The bottom fell out of my gut when he saw the impossible drop-off. XD

Love your vids keep up the amazing trucking
You can turn right on red in Mexico too, unless there is a sing that says you can't. And they are called states too!
Also even thou illegal, many people will overtake even with solid double yellow lines. In some cities drivers are very aggressive in their driving.
Umm, Paul...that's an SCS Heavy Cargo Pack trailer you just drove! Yep, buy that pack, get that trailer, and make progress on the Heavy Cargo achievement if you havn't done it before!

Brilliant as always! Thanks!! :)
that squirrel doesnt tear up old tarmac your thinking of road plainers

In h-shifter sometimes when the truck fails on a hill, I normally just run to the second gear and I'm good, I think it's a bug 😅
I am American that lives in Mexico.(Gringo) I see cars pass on double yellow a lot. They are called states. I live in the state of Chihuahua.
Cool man, I'm an Ohio native living in Mexico City. I was just in Chihuahua City last weekend for a wedding and a bit of hiking in Majalca. Nice place :)
@@blayde5957 Nice, hope you guys liking Mexico
Changing to Simple Automatic does not grant extra torque. The reason the engine is cutting out is because you're lifting the your foot too fast from the clutch. The way to climb in first gear is to gently lift the clutch and slowly begin applying the accelerator pedal. Exactly like how it would be in a real manual transmission truck.
I wonder what's going to happen with ProMods when SCS completes 'Germany Revisited'.
how to get that screen to the left with gears and other info on it? :)
Yes, in the States you can turn right on red, unless it says not too. I'm not sure about Mexico.
The states in Mexico are called states. Like in the US, right turn stop and yield on red varies by locality. It is legal in most places in Mexico.

#Squirrel ... #14:33 Try pressing the brake and excelerator at same time then let go of brake you will find this will work
