Any tips on getting the G27 set up correctly?

I only seem to use 90 degrees of lock and it's way to sensitive when belting down a motorway. Can't see any options in game, do I need to use the Logitech profiler?

Would adjusting how linear the steering responce is not help? Could make it less responsive when straight but more responsive when on lock.. be easier to do tight manouvers but should be easier to steer at higher speeds.

I did this with the mouse as it was hard overtaking on turns on the motorway without hitting people.

How are you earning enough money to buy a truck and upgrade a garage within the demo period?

I found you can only do about a dozen jobs before the demo ends.
I honestly dont know.

First profile I had set up ran into the "demo ends here" thing and stopped me dead.

This one, I've manaaged to do about 8 trips, and get a loan from the bank..

no ideas.

Good whilst it lasts though:0

I'm having the same issue with Amazon, still waiting...

In the meantime, been to the Scania dealer in Hannover, and whilst I know it's Euro Truck Simulator can't help but notice all the tractor units are cabovers.

Downloaded the demo today,and racked up a couple of hours. Have my own iveco stralis and am on my way back from rotterdam, to manchester.

Enjoying it more than i was expecting. Will probably get this and put it on the main pc and use my wheel.

and of course the day the DVD arrives from Amazon is the day my laptop decides it doesn't want to recognise the DVD writer any more.
Looks like the drive is buggered,

Just a heads up, but the DAF trucks handle very well. There's one with over 1000hp too if you look at the mod sites - not really a suitable autobox for it though.

Aye, the crash was probably caused by the alternator seizing under the load.

What's wrong with wanting to see in the dark?

I must be playing this wrong, I still don't have my own truck, got 2x 5 bay garages, 8 trucks and drivers and about to buy my 3rd garage, and spreading the makes about a bit depending on location.

This can get dangerous, I'm currently driving a 1500bhp 6x6 MAN, it'll do 140kph fully loaded. It makes it a little harder to brake in time for the tolls.
