Afrousel Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Was driving Volvo FH12 with my friend on motorway without trailer, normal speed limit is 175km/h but we were going maximum 155km/h. (We normally drive over 170km/h all the time no problem) We both had top engine (750hp) and top transmission with 4x2 chassis. Tried other transmission, chassis and engines didn't change anything. Is this client or multiplayer mod based? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntog Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 If you have damage on your truck that can cause you go to slower. So if you had 30% damage on your truck you would probably go a lot slower than without damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you had 30% damage on your truck you would probably go a lot slower than without damage. Sorry I forgot to mention we both had 0% damage. I'm aware that the more your truck is damaged, the slower it accelerates and the lower the top speed is. Also please can you change the title to Volvo FH 2012 limited to 155kmh? I put FH12 by accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindlessGonzo Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Factors like the weight of the load (if you was doing a job), engine, game settings, damages done (I know you said you didn't have damage but as it was also stated, it will affect the vehicle) can affect speed. However for safety reasons it's best you let it be. You really don't wanna be taking a turn too fast and turn over or crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazzoom12 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 All my trucks are limited to 90kph. Its a wonder how I manage to get any deliveries finished on time. Yes that was sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrousel Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 CAN I REITERATE THAT OUR VOLVO FH 2012'S WERE TOP CONFIGURATION WITHOUT TRAILERS, WITHOUT SPEED LIMITERS ENABLED, ON THE MOTORWAY! It is clearly another factor affecting it because when I switch to my top configuration Scania I can surpass 170km/h with ease (same scenario). So please, do read my post next time!

bugattiman99 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Guys, i just tested it as well out of interest, 0% damage, no trailer, max engine etc. the Volvo FH 2012 doesnt go over 155-156kmh. However the Volvo FH16 Classic still is able to go over that speed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazzoom12 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Anybody can drive fast. Have you tried using the 750hp engine and no speed limiter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirestarteR93 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 ^Well...there's no need of it / tl;dr version the 700+ hp engines start to struggle to go over 155 on flat, even the old FH. Anyawy, depending on your cargo weight, you can go to 180 on some places Since few updates, the game physics got updates, so the game became more of a simulation than arcade. Since then truck's physics got reworked and going over 140kph on flat ground is harder than it used to be (in some trucks e.g. Renault Premium or the DAFs its probably impossible on flat). Anyway, Currently there are only few trucks that can reliably reach and pass the 160kph mark. Usually these trucks have around 700hp engines.

Dood_ Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 A couple updates ago Volvo FH16 2012's engines (at least 750hp one) got RPM limit to 2000 RPM IIRC. "Old" FH16 engines doesn't have limiter, so you either have to switch to older model, or edit save to get yourself not limited engine. Find this line of your truck (if you have a couple of volvos there gonna be a couple of these lines, so either change them all, or make sure you're editing the right one) data_path: "/def/vehicle/truck/volvo.fh16_2012/engine/d16g750.sii" And delete "_2012" so it looks like that: data_path: "/def/vehicle/truck/volvo.fh16/engine/d16g750.sii" Enjoy your speeding and be careful. EDIT: Quote version the 700+ hp engines start to struggle to go over 155 on flat, even the old FH. Anyawy, depending on your cargo weight, you can go to 180 on some places I have no problem of hitting 155+ km/h with ~10t trailers either on flat or on slightly ups and downs.
