@JHTrucker

Ah, I get what you mean now about bezel correction, I had noticed that fences(in particular), barriers etc seemed to go up over a camels hump(still in big screen) and levelled out just before going into left side screen, I thought it was just because I am using low AA and was tied in with all the shimmering etc. Is there a way to do it in game because if I try to do with desktop picture nothing is going to line up because of differences in sizes?
Hood mirrors and front and kerb mirrors went ages ago together with stuff on my dash and inside cab because I guessed they were slowing things down.
GPU was running at 100% ALL of the time but having overclocked a bit it does drop to 95 ish, I still have room to OC a bit more as not maxed out yet but will try lowering settings as you suggest.
Only 6 speed???? No range change and splitter??? Shame on you :-) :-) :-) :-)

@ BenganJ & JHTrucker

What graphics card would you suggest to go with my AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six core processor 3.85GHz with 16.0GB RAM that will make game a bit better with higher AA?
I'm gonna have a word with Santa and see what I can buy myself, or maybe either of you have one you want to sell??

@toni1958

It's always hard to answer that kind of question, as it is not only depending on
graphics card, but also on CPU and whether you use SSD and such things. And
above all, how much money are you prepared to use for this?

@toni1958 - Slide left monitor right bezel behind the centre left bezel. Then right side.
You now have 1 bezel gap between images instead of 2.

You can still surround image, just add 100 or so and see what it looks like in game.
Or edit the multimon file, i put info at the top for bezels, so only that game will use it.
// Adjust bezels to suit your setup (my example 10mm bezels).
// monitor_config : _Left.AA {
// heading_offset: 3.500000 <- My Bezel (4.0 moves closer
// to center / 3.0 away)
// monitor_config : _Right.AA {
// heading_offset: -3.500000 <- My Bezel (-4.0 moves closer
// to center / -3.0 away)

6 speed is perfect and one hell of a challenge with heavy loads on steep climbs (4 mph max in some places), i'm not a trucker, i'm not a trucking geek. I raced cars for years and then in 2013 found ets2 and it appealed to me, driving for miles through traffic in the direction i want to go etc. I joined this forum to help get the AA working and had to quickly think of a name...

Gfx cards xx70 are the starting point for triples i think. But how much will stanta need to spend?
Also psu needs to be meaty enough for high end cards as they demand much more power whereas xx50 down over don't have this extra requirement... so not straight forward.
You could swap your 1050ti with my much older 760!!!

OK thanks guys, as you both say, not straightforward and I've already spent out for the AMD stuff.
@JHTrucker
I'll give the bezel thing a go and see how I go, there was me thinking you were a real trucker :-) :-) Where abouts in UK are you, probably my next door neighbour hahahaha
Is your 760 card better than the one I have or were you just having a laugh??

@toni1958 - 2014 was when i bought my 760, much slower than yours.
I'm in North east.
Talking of uk... if you drive your trucks RHD then you'll need another multimon file to swap with your current LHD only version because of left portrait.

I've added easy tweaking guide to the bottom of the mismatch monitor post: viewtopic.php?p=31309#p31309

@BenganJ

and there was me thinking I was the oldest one on here at 62 and three quarters, just goes to show, never too old :-)

@JHTrucker

I'll pass on the card then thanks JH, probably family of spiders inhabiting it by now.
I tend not to drive in UK if I can help it so trucks are LHD, I even moved my home base garage to middle Europe coz got fed up of having to start from there when my truck was parked in safe place for updates etc and own trailers spawning there too. Only visit UK when I really have to :-)

gutted, overclocked card bit too much which meant I had to reinstall and lost all setting from NPI and NCP, good job I printed everything off, need to cut my hands off or disable the tinkering tool on PC/Game :-)

@toni1958

Didn't you see the recommendation to EXPORT the NPI settings,
so that you later can IMPORT it again?
