Logitech g29 h shifter

[bfc24]

Hi I have always played ETS 2 just with automatic gears but recently I have purchased the logitech G29 with shifter , I have no idea about truck gears and when I move the stick to what would be 1st gear its coming up as C1 second is C2 then once I move to what should be 3rd gear it comes up 1 and 4th is 2 and so on. Does anyone have any advice on how best to set this up as the truck is also hardly moving ? Thanks

How the game sees your shifter position depends on what shift pattern option you have assigned. You can select your transmission and the game will automatically assign gear selections to your shifter.
If you are using one of the 16 speed transmissions you will have to assign buttons to select high vs low range and high vs low splitter selection. Google can be your friend as "ZF 16 speed shift pattern " (Volvo 16 speed is the same) will give you nice diagrams etc.

These are the available shifter patterns (for full range/splitter setup)

Note that the "first gear" is always in the middle position (on the left there are crawler and reverse gears).

PS. Remember to assign buttons for range and splitter too. I have them setup on the +/- buttons so my left thumb can reach them easily.

Each H-pattern cycle has three gear slots (or four but that's usually on ATS side Eaton Fullers).

First cycle being (both range and split "off"): 1, 2 and 3. (or 1L, 2L and 3L as in LOW)
Second (range "on". split "off"): 1H, 2H and 3H (as in HIGH)
Third (range "off", split "on"): 4L, 5L and 6L
and the fourth (both "on"): 4H, 5H and 6H

EDIT: Do note, the actual gear order is not linear (as in cycle1>cycle2>cycle3>cycle4) but is between L and H ranges. Meaning pulling really really heavy loads you use the range selector a lot (1L > 1H > 2L > 2H...) For normal loads the opposite, you hardly touch it and skip gears a lot.

for a total of 12 gears.

The first pattern also has the reverse and optionally crawler gears aswell, as in RL and RH; CL and CH. Which slots are which depends on the truck and what gearbox you've put in it. You HAVE to match the setting in the controller menu or you'll get weird results when switching gears.

I'd just recommend you do go either for a 6-speed clutch or go for the 'real automatic'. If you fancy you can setup the gearbox so you can switch between two modes for higher/lower gears at the same position.

Another note is that the shifter for G29 is complete crap, but it works...

Much like an automatic in a real life car, it controls how early/late the transmission shifts based on load - economy will shift up earlier to reduce fuel consumption, power will shift later to maximise power up hills etc.

weet iemand wat ik moet doen om lekker te kunnen schakelen met mijn g29
in scania simulator.
in ets2 gebruik ik de h-shifter. Die staat er niet in bij scania simulator wat ik heel erg jammer vind.
kan iemand mij helpen / uitleggen hoe ik de h-shifter kan gebruiken in scania simulator. ( ook dat het dan wel werkt natuurlijk anders heb ik er nog niks aan haha)
ik heb ook iedere keer als ik probeer te rijden dat dan het gaspedaal blijft hamgen. ( kan ik ook niet veranderen bij opties daar zie je dat het blijft hangen zeg maar.)
