dragonslayingmaster1000 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 First of all, I do this in areas where there's not many players so I'm doing this safely. I'm having lots of trouble doing it because I don't have pedals or wheel (just mouse steering) so it seems impossible to do proper drifts. Either I can't start the drift and turn normally or I'm able to start it but immediately spin out a second later even if I turn the wheel all the way to try to continue the drift. I've seen videos of people doing it but they definitely use pedal and wheels. If anyone has some tips, preferably if you use mouse steering, that would be great.

Lukassrs Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Hello! Did you also install the winter physics? With them it is much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alon_TMP Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Hello there, I suggest you install the winter mod. If you want to drift, you can drift in the collision-free area, which is also very safe for you. If you drift in the collision area, it is very dangerous. Please protect your TruckersMP account. Have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 First off, If you want to drift, Do it in SP or in a Arcade server. Doing it in a Simulation server will just cause you trouble, Even if no ones around. To drift, I would recommend getting a 4x2 with a powerful engine. Make sure to understand how the Physics mod works. It's hard to explain, But try messing around, And see if you can make any slips and what not. Once you got that, Then try drifting for a spin. It'll take time to master it. Its not something that will magically happen once you slide your wheel all the way. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxeRider Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 A powerful engine, a truck with not many axles, proper usage of handbrake and a little practice. Please try it in single player though. We don't need people drifting in simulation servers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBrachoO Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 U can't drift on this year winter mod. Physics is totally unrealistic and you will be spinning all the time. Why they changed last year winter mod physics ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grubby. Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 First of all, make sure that you are in the Arcade server so you don't get banned. Here's some of the things you should have on a drifting truck: 6 Speed transmission - I feel like this is needed, it makes you stay in a gear for longer, which will allow you to keep longer drifts 2 Axles - This is really important, I've tried drifting with 3 axles, but it just didn't work High RPM engine - Honestly, I don't know how much this helps, but I always go for the engines with high rpm I hope some of these tips will help Grubby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Dragon Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 You should not be doing this, at all. If you want to drift, go to Tucson's race track when there is no one there or on the very least, use the Arcade server, as there are no collisions there so you can't hurt anybody, should anyone show up without you noticing (it WILL happen. It's only a matter of "when"). Do bear in mind, however, that you are playing a dangerous game in doing that. If I were you, I would download the winter mod and physics for singleplayer and do it there. The "fun" of drifting in the snow is not worth getting a ban in your punishment history, trust me. Some people should really get a license before even thinking about buying Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator. Drive safely, folks! < < < Don't bet on sinking ships because they'll turn your chips to trash! > > > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBrachoO Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 But why all of you are talking about "drfiting" if this year winter mod not allow to make slides like year ago ? It's impossible to have full control of truck when drifting. You will spin or go straight into wall. Totally unrealistic physics. Why this winter mod is deleted?

It is very simple actually.first you should have a truck with retarder. Then you should pick a safe place to drift or spin. While truck is going, open the retarder, stop pushing the gas button, use the handbrake and turn the wheels at the same time. You can even in a city with that tactic. But first of all, you should have winter mode physics. At the same time, you can use the grassed area near the road. These places are very slippery.

Feyfar Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 You should use a 6 gear shifter and a wheel to drift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
