Improved Truck Physics v1.0

Improved Truck Physics for v1.58

Truck Physics Improvement mod for immersive gameplay

This mod brings a more natural “bouncy” feel to the cabin and adjusts the chassis suspension to better simulate the weight and inertia of a heavy truck. Expect more realistic nodding, rolling, and overall smoother suspension travel.

Key Changes:

Enhanced Cabin Dynamics:

• Maximum pitch angles (front/rear and roll) have been adjusted to more realistic values, providing natural “nodding”.
• Softer cabin suspension with increased travel and reduced damping for a smoother, less “plastic” feel.
• Significantly reduced cabin sway bar factor, allowing for more natural lateral movement.

Reworked Chassis Suspension:

• Reduced damping for both truck and trailer axles, making the suspension more reactive to road bumps.
• Lowered sway bar stiffness to allow for more realistic frame roll during cornering.

Drivetrain & Inertia:

• Increased flywheel inertia for more realistic engine RPM behavior and smoother power delivery.

IMPORTANT:

• “Physical camera movement” must be enabled
• “Physical camera movement factor” set to 200%
• “Interior camera horizon locking factor” set to 0%
• “Uneven surface simulation” set to 130%
• Cabin stiffness – 0% (Softer) – 20% (Harder)
• Suspension stiffness – 0% (Softer) – 20% (Harder)
• Truck and trailer Stabilization – 0%
• Braking intensity – 50%
• Torque resonance – 100%
• Steering sensitivity: 0.31 (0.31-0.33 Tolerance) (for keyboard)
• Steering non-linearity: 1.75 (for keyboard)
• Steering animation range: 1380° (for keyboard)

Give this mod hight priority

If you’re not sure about the suspension stiffness, here’s what I recommend:

For older truck models:

Cabin stiffness – 0% Suspension stiffness – 0%

Or

Cabin stiffness – 10% Suspension stiffness 0%

For modern truck models:

Cabin stiffness – 20% Suspension stiffness – 10%

Or

Cabin stiffness – 20% Suspension stiffness – 20%
