Thanks for the comments guys. I understand a lot of folks are wondering about the ideal load order. Let me tell you, I also don't know 😂. What I do know is that the following setup, in general, has worked for me for the past few years. Take it with a grain of salt. My load order from top to bottom: - NaturaLux by GerScaniaTrucker - Sound Fixes Pack by Drive Safely - Engine sounds (EVR, etc) - Project Next-Gen by DamianSVW (not including the Weather module) - Maps - Trucks - Truck accessories - Trailers - AI traffic packs Hope this helps!
Hahaha wow this is completely different from how I do it, but I'm gonna try your way. I've been using the method from FTG Gaming for a year or so now but I'm gonna try this!
I can't even get to the mod. I have tried to register a few times and never get the activation code. Messaged them for guidance but no such luck. Looks amazing though.
Yeah, it's quite sad that most of the quality maps require you to have DLC's... BTW Is there any advice you could give to a beginner? I'm getting the game soon, and I am wondering if there are any things to know before getting into the game...
Thank you for this video! It was so informative for me. I stupidly thought the "scaling" was to text size and changed mine to 75% as I have a 4K screen. I was disappointing when the text size didn't change and now I know why!!!! Thanks!
*Whoaaa, damn MLAA!* I with a Pentium G4400 and Sapphire R9 380 Nitro 4GB played ETS2 and ATS everything on ultra except scalling was at 200%. GPU was used 80% and CPU 95%. CPU temp 45 celsius while GPU was mostly 65 celsius with GPU downclocked from 1010MHz to 900MHz. FPS 50-60. After I unticked MLAA, got the scalling to 400%, FPS got a stable 60 (V-sync enabled). Now the GPU runs at stock 1010MHz with same 65 celsius temp and it's fully utilized but the G4400 is like 40-60% utilized and running at 35-37 celsius. The monitor is 1680x1050 (16:10), very close to full HD, but now atleast it's a big change. Didn't know that MLAA could use up so much CPU power. *Thank you!*
I do always hope that companys upgrade these games like eve online did several times. Overhaul the whole graphics and details. And add the most used features from mods in the game for everyone.
Wow, this video was so good I fell out of my chair down 3 stories of stairs and broke my neck, but these graphics will keep me occupied for the 10 years I am in hospital.
Nice video, great recommendations. Actually for display resolution is always the best bet to go with the native supported resolution of your monitor, and then scale up the graphic settings till you find the sweet balanced spot of looks vs performance
If you open Steam and click library, then right click ETS2 and select to boot in DX11(experimental) this will lift your FPS quite a lot allowing higher graphics settings in the game, saves messing around altering config files if you're not too confident changing files around.
Thanks for the awesome video! Just the scaling option alone makes it a gorgeous game to look at. (didnt knew about it until this vid) Going to try the Naturalux and Next-Gen mods tonight. Keep up the good work, you've earned yourself a thumbs up and a new subscriber :)
The reason you see blurry at %125 scaling is anti-aliasing. If you are going to use high scaling, it will remove jagged lines anyway, so just close the anti aliasing. %100 render scaling will have the highest quality-performance combo. What higher scaling does is a very expensive anti-aliasing and further render distance(at higher scaling trees and signs in the distance will render in a higher quality version. Observed at %100 vs %300). But if you are going to use a heavy headlight mod for ai traffic and have a much denser traffic along with increased traffic visibility distance, the performance loss from scaling isnt worth it. I played in a machine with 2080ti and 4.6ghz 9700k with 2k 144hz screen. With the mods i mentioned %200-%300 was good as %400 i think was lower than 60fps.
It is a great game even on the lowest settings (the settings in which I apply the game). How good is your computer, what's speed of processor, RAM, graph card etc.? How good does a computer need to be to run this game on the high settings?
@@smrtfasizmu6161 very low requirements I can run it on high with some mods on my old 1050 ti laptop. I have a rtx 3090 on my pc rig but it plays fine on my old laptop
@@viktor123x yeah. You'll probably notice the picture is cleaner and sharper when you turn it off. I think they put MLAA there for the people who don't have enough horsepower to push the scale too high

Thanks! I didn't have clue how to set graphics. With just the basics you showed, my graphics have improved. No more do I see the very quick instant stall in picture when the game did the auto save. This is great :)
I would really love to try out this Naturalux mod but my goodness is it near impossible to download the damn files that are NOT corrupted. I've been trying for a few days now and it's just not working. The discussions on their forum have all ran into the same issue, even after trying their potential fixes. A real shame if it's been this long and still no fix
Same here and after the fiasco of just getting to the download section - signing up for multiple forums and playing guess the answer - you get timed out after a few minutes, log this on said forum you are made sign up for to be told by the mod author that its your IP changing even after multiple potential users have reported the same problem. There is post on the forum reporting this back as far as last year! Look I understand the mod author is under no obligation to do anything we users are asking but for god sake talk about creating problems for no reason.
@@IrishKenBlock43 After much perseverance, I was finally able to download all the files. I did follow most of the 'fixes' that the author outlined in the forum but then I went back to just simply clicking that download button over and over again until I had a file size that matches over 1GB. The main thing I did this time was just clearing out the browser cache. It will eventually download a non-corrupt file, you just need to persevere. But yes, completely agree... this is the most problematic mod to download ever!
@@TheBullethead1988 I'd also followed the steps and cleared cache without any joy last night. Have just tried it again now after re-clearing the cache and it is looking more promising - getting past about 175MB without timing out. The only other variable I have changed is that rather than trying to overwrite the old file I have deleted it in file explorer before starting the download process (although I'm sure I tried this the other night). Or else the forum with the DL has finally fixed their issue. Thanks for letting me know your persistence prevailed! I had given up on it tbh!
Thanks for share your recomandation ! Another simple tips wich is good for 4K monitors, I can't tell if it's significant enough for 1080P monitors: Go to into your document file, "Euro Truck Simulator" or "American Truck Simulator" then open "Config" file Set "uset r_sun_shadow_texture_size" to this : uset r_sun_shadow_texture_size "8192" You'll get less alliasing on shadows. Definitely a must to have for me ! Set "uset r_mirror_view_distance" to this : uset r_mirror_view_distance "900" You'll go the best distance view for your mirrors. But Ultra setting still looks pretty good.
I went the opposite way, decreased shadow size, which I think helped FPS a lot and then allows for other beauty settings like 400%. I use ultra mirrors. Worth a lot for me, because I really hate objects popping in and out in my mirrors. Will need to compare said shadow setting again...
wow, thank you. That single change to scalling has transformed the look of the game. I have a relatively modern rig so am pulling a consistent 130fps - looks amazing.
I changed some shadow size in the config file from 4096 to 256.Shadows are crappy. BUT this allowed for a lot. I play with 400% and ultra mirror distance on 40 to 60 FPS. Mostly 60. On a core i7 2600k, AMD equivalent of a gtx 1060. Before, but I think it may have played in 32bit as I did not force it to 64, even at 100% and lower, which looks crappy AF, there were framerates around 25. I have AA turned on but I think it's broken, jaggies on the steering wheel. I think if it would work indeed it would kill FPS. Then I'll turn it off because 400% is decent.
i can play on medium and on high with a bit of lag and im running Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3,00ghz overclocked to 3,60ghz Radeon HD5500 and 8gb of ddr2 ram
@@evansorensen Nah man. 550 Ti is very hot card. Besides GTX 750 takes only 50 Watts from power supply, runs cool and you can get one for 50$ too on aliexpress. Besides it's much more powerful than 550 Ti.
Nice video. I downloaded Naturalux yesterday to try your settings and it no longer works and the guy who made it is apparently no longer updating it. The best graphics mod I can find that works is Frkn's Realistic Graphics 5.2
im happy playing on 1440p with 400% scaling, antialiasing to ultra, unlimited mirror distance and 10k shadow resolution :) and all that with only a 1070 ti
I'd thinks that what SCS should've given for ten years old amazing game to evolved into that. As I know there'll be no Euro Truck simulator 3. But that doesn't stop there for Euro truck Simulator 2! That what makes the game is an amazing game
Just got the car with my wheel coming tomorrow can’t wait. But yeah after changing my scaling to 400% there was a big difference have a 3060ti so wasn’t worried about frame rate on a pretty old game but it looks amazing and runs great as well. Definitely will try in VR may need to change some settings around.
Use the same settings. Thanks for vid though. Maybe you can do a mods TUT next. Show Load order to mods ( the way you stack them etc ). Should have shown in this vid The NaturalLux and NG in you mods list ( so people can see how to add and order ).
ATS this helped me smooth out my fps hard drops ... i get a lot of drops because i use american truck stops and DP's realistic traffic RST ... which pretty much adds tons and tons of vehicles and trucks and well with that we know frame rate loss ... therefore i still get a few hard drops in areas but the importance you stated about the scaling and mirror distance draw was very helpful for me. I dont use any of the other mods mentioned, however my game doesnt look that terrible to me and i use other mods. thank you the information.
Thank you so much for this video! I was getting so frustrated trying to find the ideal settings for both graphics and performance and now thanks to your video, I've finally found it. You explain everything very well and in easy to understand terms for non-techies like me, thanks again!!
Hey, when I try to download the graphics mod of NL, the download always stops at 760MB out of 1GB (The first part) and also the others stops like that, any ideas?
You do it one by one?? I had to give it a couple of tries. Used my phone as I was on the road with my truck. Some files I only got at the 3rd or 4th go, bye bye internet bundle lol for January. It was a struggle, but worth it for me.
I use the realistic graphics mod in ets and in ats but in ats I also add the enhanced vegetation mountain terrain and realistic roads from the steam workshop
Ok I've never tried it but thanks for telling us because I'm on a 60hz computer and it had really bad graphics so it can finally do the job so I can finally play it in peace.
Well, that´s certainly for highspec rigs... the statement "the other settings don´t do too much performnce wise" is only true if your rig is made for max-settings or near that... stuff like shadow quality and quite a few others can make a huge difference for little changes in quality on medium and low rigs... and I betcha, many people who are watching videos like this want to know exactly that: which setting does what for how much performance impact :)
Fair point, but I would start with the settings I go through as those are the "big blocks". If you're in a tweaking mood you can always minmax the other settings, but for a beginner the biggest impact settings should be enough to start with. 👍
ive been on ets for 4 years and always struggled trying to find the right graphics settings so buildings and trees in the distance didnt look pixelated. this video helped a lot and solved my issue thank you
been looking for some graphics settings in ets2 for my gtx 1650. and ppl said i can get 90-102fps if i put everything to ultra and scaling to 100% and disabling anti-aliasing. and well.. before i got 40-54fps after putting everything to ultra (including scaling and putting it to 400% scaling). now i put it on 100% scaling.. and well i got good image quality and fps :) thanks!
Hi. Unfortunately NaturaLux is no longer available, and is no longer compatible with the latest versions of the game. Thankfully the default lighting since 1.40 has been tremendously better so not as much need for graphics mods.
Very nice, have you tweaked on the graphic settings in the Nvidia Control Panel and if so can you share them? I'll definitely give these a try. My graphics are good but I get lag once in awhile and I don't know if it's due to the settings or a mod. Thank you for sharing these tips.
@@RaysSim oh man that sucks. Must be a connection issue. Try downloading at a different time or from a different connection to see if it works. Good luck!
Great Video. My low End Pc with Rx 570 8GB can easily handle 400% and everything set to Ultra (including Mirrors). I get constant 50+ fps. Luckily you do not need that powerful of a Pc to handle this game ^^
@@djmatthias4593 if you can find a version that's compatible with your ets2, that's great. The problem is these mods aren't officially supported in the latest ets2 version anymore, so it's getting harder and harder to use.
I tried the NaturaLux and Project Next-Gen mods but it was choppy and froze. So I removed all the Project Next-Gen to see what would happen, and using the settings you suggested and the NaturaLux mods, everything is working great and all looks fantastic. Thanks for vid and mods, the game looks so much better now :)
Hey there! Nice informative video. However i want to know how did you downloaded the mod as I am trying to download the mod for ets2 since a week now and not able to from the website. Can u share some suggestions. Thanks.
Thanks! You mean NaturaLux? Ah yes that's a challenging one. I suggest you check out the support forums and posr there, detailing your exact problem. They are more equipped than I am to help. forum.nlmod.net/viewforum.php?f=10
Just looked at your pc specs, got a few notes: - Haven't you run out of space on your drives yet? Seems like a rather low amount. Then again, I'm managing a 120GB SSD myself and barely ever have to use the HDD I have 😄 - I feel like upgrading your motherboard might be a good idea. If you're in the EU, I heard the MSI B450 Mortar Max is really good. - Could get some better RAM. I find that GSkill has better frequencies and latency than Corsair at a better price. So maybe TridentZ Neo 3600 MHz C16. Even 32 GB is rather affordable if you're running a R7. - Maybe also mention PSU? Can't be cheaping out on it 😉

yusiegames070 yes you can I have way lower specs then you and can run the game on ultra settings and get 144 FPS no studders
Many thanks for your time and effort and very useful information
rip my PC, it has trouble handling medium graphics 😅
Great video anyway :)
Haha good luck finding your combo!
Time to start saving
Thank you brother, now i can play this game.. i love u so much😁
Glad to hear man. Enjoy!
i can play on medium and on high with a bit of lag
and im running
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3,00ghz overclocked to 3,60ghz
Radeon HD5500
and 8gb of ddr2 ram
Thanks for sharing! This will help some folks who have a similar setup.
Get an GTX 750 2GB from aliexpress, it should help a lot.
I’ve overclocked my GTX 550 ti to heck but it runs well and you can get one for around $50
@@evansorensen Nah man. 550 Ti is very hot card. Besides GTX 750 takes only 50 Watts from power supply, runs cool and you can get one for 50$ too on aliexpress. Besides it's much more powerful than 550 Ti.
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming had the same cpu wuth 4 gb of ddr2 1066 @ 3,6 ghz and hd7850...it ran smooth
Nice video. I downloaded Naturalux yesterday to try your settings and it no longer works and the guy who made it is apparently no longer updating it. The best graphics mod I can find that works is Frkn's Realistic Graphics 5.2
a secret on youtube, I have to click
😂
Thanks a lot, my game looks amazing now with the scaling on 400.
Thank you! New subscriber here 👍🏻 sounds like u are filipino
Awesome welcome! Yessir!
thx for helping me out with the graphics!! i went thru soooo many vids and this one actually helped me out thx!
Great to hear. Enjoy!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming wow thx!
at 5120x1440 resolution i cant really play 400% scaling xD
im happy playing on 1440p with 400% scaling, antialiasing to ultra, unlimited mirror distance and 10k shadow resolution :) and all that with only a 1070 ti
Power!
I'd thinks that what SCS should've given for ten years old amazing game to evolved into that. As I know there'll be no Euro Truck simulator 3. But that doesn't stop there for Euro truck Simulator 2! That what makes the game is an amazing game
Just got the car with my wheel coming tomorrow can’t wait. But yeah after changing my scaling to 400% there was a big difference have a 3060ti so wasn’t worried about frame rate on a pretty old game but it looks amazing and runs great as well. Definitely will try in VR may need to change some settings around.
Great to hear. Enjoy!
Hey! How much fps do you get with your RTX3060ti?
Realy good tutorial.. So i can play ets with amazing view.. Look natural.. Big thank my friend..
Great video man👍
Use the same settings. Thanks for vid though. Maybe you can do a mods TUT next. Show Load order to mods ( the way you stack them etc ). Should have shown in this vid The NaturalLux and NG in you mods list ( so people can see how to add and order ).
Hmm yeah good point. I think I'll do that next. Thanks!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming looking forward to a mod load order, think that will help a lot of people with a tutorial
Check out the pinned comment here for an overview of my load order. 👍
ATS this helped me smooth out my fps hard drops ... i get a lot of drops because i use american truck stops and DP's realistic traffic RST ... which pretty much adds tons and tons of vehicles and trucks and well with that we know frame rate loss ... therefore i still get a few hard drops in areas but the importance you stated about the scaling and mirror distance draw was very helpful for me. I dont use any of the other mods mentioned, however my game doesnt look that terrible to me and i use other mods. thank you the information.
Glad to hear it helped. Enjoy man!
Great video, liked and Subbed!!
Great to hear thanks!
Thank you so much for this video! I was getting so frustrated trying to find the ideal settings for both graphics and performance and now thanks to your video, I've finally found it. You explain everything very well and in easy to understand terms for non-techies like me, thanks again!!
That's so great to hear. Happy to help! Enjoy!
Hey, when I try to download the graphics mod of NL, the download always stops at 760MB out of 1GB (The first part) and also the others stops like that, any ideas?
I see similar problems in the forums. Try checking there for solutions: forum.nlmod.net/viewforum.php?f=10
Good luck!
You do it one by one?? I had to give it a couple of tries. Used my phone as I was on the road with my truck. Some files I only got at the 3rd or 4th go, bye bye internet bundle lol for January. It was a struggle, but worth it for me.
@@hayerenders4576 I have got the same also, gladly it's completed but after 6 tries of course
Congrats!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Thank you!
You are a legend Clumsy. Great vid!
Hey man thanks for dropping by. Awesome content you have!
I use the realistic graphics mod in ets and in ats but in ats I also add the enhanced vegetation mountain terrain and realistic roads from the steam workshop
Sounds like a good combo, too. Glad it works for you. 👍
Thank you very much for thuis video! 😬🤞
Hope it helped somehow!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming ofcourse!! Everyday before sleep, I watch a video from you 😍🤞 goodnight from the Netherlands (0:07 AM)
Thanks man your video really useful
Great to hear. Happy to help!
Ok I've never tried it but thanks for telling us because I'm on a 60hz computer and it had really bad graphics so it can finally do the job so I can finally play it in peace.
I like the hungarian sign.
Well presented and informative video. Thanks
Well, that´s certainly for highspec rigs... the statement "the other settings don´t do too much performnce wise" is only true if your rig is made for max-settings or near that...
stuff like shadow quality and quite a few others can make a huge difference for little changes in quality on medium and low rigs... and I betcha, many people who are watching videos like this want to know exactly that: which setting does what for how much performance impact :)
Fair point, but I would start with the settings I go through as those are the "big blocks". If you're in a tweaking mood you can always minmax the other settings, but for a beginner the biggest impact settings should be enough to start with. 👍
You talk like the Randy savage of the trucksim world. Great video, thanks :)
Thanks for sharing buddy.
Thanks for sharing! Good information
Happy to help!
I love this video,,Thanks for the awesome video
Thanks for yours secrets!! I have tried Naturalux and it's fantastic! :-)
Glad you like it!
Subbed. Great video.
Awesome work. Appreciate. :)
Thanks! Have a good one!
Very helpful video thanks
ive been on ets for 4 years and always struggled trying to find the right graphics settings so buildings and trees in the distance didnt look pixelated. this video helped a lot and solved my issue thank you
been looking for some graphics settings in ets2 for my gtx 1650. and ppl said i can get 90-102fps if i put everything to ultra and scaling to 100% and disabling anti-aliasing. and well.. before i got 40-54fps after putting everything to ultra (including scaling and putting it to 400% scaling). now i put it on 100% scaling.. and well i got good image quality and fps :) thanks!
Awesome. Enjoy!
Hi mate. Where I can get Naturalux Mod for ETS2 in 2021? Link is dead. Thank you
Hi. Unfortunately NaturaLux is no longer available, and is no longer compatible with the latest versions of the game. Thankfully the default lighting since 1.40 has been tremendously better so not as much need for graphics mods.
The sum of the video:
Set the scale to 400% and the rest to ULTRA. Download 4K mods + RESHADE and type into the console : " r_device " that's it ...
all these mods take a lot of fps right? so if yore low end pc user better not be messing w mods
Very nice, have you tweaked on the graphic settings in the Nvidia Control Panel and if so can you share them? I'll definitely give these a try. My graphics are good but I get lag once in awhile and I don't know if it's due to the settings or a mod. Thank you for sharing these tips.
My pleasure! I don't use nvidia control panel anymore since it's not compatible anymore as of dx11.
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Ok, didn't realize the Nvidia control panel was of no use with DX11, thank you again.
Legend mate thank you
My pleasure!
Tried all morning today to try get naturlax but was broken files each time ... was gutted
@@RaysSim oh man that sucks. Must be a connection issue. Try downloading at a different time or from a different connection to see if it works. Good luck!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming just got it :) was file 2 kept stopping early it seems
@@RaysSim grats!
NaturaLux link doesn't work anymore apparently. Seems the main website won't come up for me either.
Can't wait to see NaturaLux for ATS. Still not available.
Yes, you guys will love it when it's out!
Great Video. My low End Pc with Rx 570 8GB can easily handle 400% and everything set to Ultra (including Mirrors). I get constant 50+ fps. Luckily you do not need that powerful of a Pc to handle this game ^^
Oh that's great! Yes especially without mods, it's not a picky game at all.
How is it possible ? Can you explain what settings did you use ?
You got a one more sub,ty so much
Thanks!
I have one ask? You use Naturalux and project NG - Textures at the same time? Is that compatible? How priority on the mods list?
Yes. Textures below, NL above. 👍
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Thank you very much 👌😍
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming And you recommend this pack for free at this moment? Or exist better mods to not pay?
@@djmatthias4593 if you can find a version that's compatible with your ets2, that's great. The problem is these mods aren't officially supported in the latest ets2 version anymore, so it's getting harder and harder to use.
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Fine, thanks for answer. I have 1.38
I tried the NaturaLux and Project Next-Gen mods but it was choppy and froze. So I removed all the Project Next-Gen to see what would happen, and using the settings you suggested and the NaturaLux mods, everything is working great and all looks fantastic. Thanks for vid and mods, the game looks so much better now :)
Oh that's great! Glad it worked for you and you found the right combination for your system. Enjoy!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Will do, and thank you again :)
Hey there! Nice informative video. However i want to know how did you downloaded the mod as I am trying to download the mod for ets2 since a week now and not able to from the website. Can u share some suggestions. Thanks.
Thanks! You mean NaturaLux? Ah yes that's a challenging one. I suggest you check out the support forums and posr there, detailing your exact problem. They are more equipped than I am to help. forum.nlmod.net/viewforum.php?f=10
Thanks! This was great!
Great to hear!
The Naturalux comparison is an eye opener. Looks like I need to butcher some more FPS and try it 😉
Haha yes! Well worth the effort of installing it.
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming I just closed my eyes here again. Registration on 2 (or more? 1000?) fora, WTF.
@@Tortuosit haha yes. The downloading / installation turns off a lot of people. But if you manage to get through it, the rewards are worth it imo.
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Trying it again. So it was 2 forum registrations. Download runs fine, yay...
It is lovely, it runs great, maybe regular fps drops, but: it's pretty bright
Great Video und of course Graphic! Is it possible to use the Naturalux mod with one of the Seasons Mods from Grimes (e.g. Frosty Winter)?
Yes, that works. Just place grimes' below and NL above. You might also have to delete climate files inside grimes' seasonal mods.
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Thank you! What are the "climate files"?
@@joproe if you open the scs file via 7zip, inside the def folder there will be files/folders with "climate" in them. Delete them all. Hope it works!
@@TheClumsyGeekGaming Thanks. Is there any possibility to get Naturalux for 1.39 at the moment?
The website and discord are now down, unfortunately. It looks like NL is on its last legs.
Just looked at your pc specs, got a few notes:
- Haven't you run out of space on your drives yet? Seems like a rather low amount. Then again, I'm managing a 120GB SSD myself and barely ever have to use the HDD I have 😄
- I feel like upgrading your motherboard might be a good idea. If you're in the EU, I heard the MSI B450 Mortar Max is really good.
- Could get some better RAM. I find that GSkill has better frequencies and latency than Corsair at a better price. So maybe TridentZ Neo 3600 MHz C16. Even 32 GB is rather affordable if you're running a R7.
- Maybe also mention PSU? Can't be cheaping out on it 😉
It's working fine for now, but yes if some of those give out, it'll be the perfect time to replace them. Thanks for the tips 👍.
