Dont forget to change your wheel when u using Logitech profiler to define x64Ets2.exe in Profiler!!
i had the same problems with 64bitV but i maked a new Profil on Logi.profil and now i run all the Time with 64bit
Its much smoother more Fps to

So by creating the 64bit shortcut as described on page 1, are we playing in OpenGL or DirectX?

Where can I find, or how can I create 64-bit launcher ? (I'm using steam version), but when I open launcher which is susposted to be 64-bit the game says that It's 32-bit. Thank's

Has anyone figured out a way to get Steam to autoselect DirectX 64bit without using a separate shortcut? This should either be an in game option or a setting in the steam properties IMO not a popup that appears every time you launch. How often do you ever need to change your choice once it's selected?

Steam remembers which option you last picked when launching the game from the Steam library. From my first choice of the DirectX 64 bit option, i've used only the shortcut created by Steam when it installed the game, without any issue.
Of course you need to run the x64 version of the OS.
Edit: you need to set the launch option with '-64bit' command as described in the first post. Also Steam will always ask what option you want, when you select the game from Steam library or from Steam taskbar button.

It hasn't for me. I have to select it every time I launch from steam. Any way to fix it?

[ohaha]

Use a Desktop shortcut...

Technically x86 simply refers to a family of processors and the instruction set they all use. It doesn't actually say anything specific about data sizes. The term x86 started out as a 16-bit instruction set for 16-bit processors (the 8086 and 8088 processors), then was extended to a 32-bit instruction set for 32-bit processors (80386 and 80486), and now has been extended to a 64-bit instruction set for 64-bit processors. It used to be written as 80x86 to reflect the changing value in the middle of the chip model numbers, but somewhere along the line the 80 in the front was dropped, leaving just x86.

If you really wanna be accurate, it's x86-64 for 64 bit processors.
