H-shifter?

#1 Post by Dyllie1204 » 07 Jan 2014 16:07

Why didn't the older games include H-shifter?
weren't the G25 and G27 released yet because they have them deliverd with them?

(don't say go play ETS 2 pls, because my PC cant handle it)

How can it not handle it? ETS2 runs with less lag than the old engine series, eg 18WOS. My computer can only handle ETS1 and ETS2 and not UKTS or 18WOS

SCS have changed very much over the years since the days of Haulin' (2006). At that time, they simply didn't have the money and man power to make this a possible function. Saying that, not many games of that time had the feature anyway!

Euro Truck Simulator 2 was only made to have better optimization for computers - not so it'd work with all computers... Let me show you...

Haulin' Minimum Requirements:

Intel Pentium 4 (1.4GHz) or higher
256MB RAM or higher
64MB GPU (DirectX 9) or higher
Windows 98/ME/2000/XP

Euro Truck Simulator 2 Minimum Requirements:

Dual Core CPU (2.4GHz Clock Speed Minimum) or higher
2GB RAM or higher
256MB GPU or higher (GeForce 7600GT or better)
Windows XP/Vista/7/8

As you can see; Euro Truck Simulator 2 requires a more powerful PC/Mac. It was just more highly optimized to run on computers...

The minimum requirements to be fair, are a little bit on the high side.. As my build isn't quite up to the task in some areas - I can still run it.. However, it depends on the computer you're running...
