Settings to float gears?
I've been looking for settings to float gears but none work. I'm using a logitech shifter and an eaton fuller 10 speed.

it's in the set up wizard.

change shifter layout behavior to advanced and shifter fast split (advanced only) to clutch or throttle

Enabling Non-Synchro Transmissions
By snoof
if you want more of a challenge follow this guide. if done right, the only way to to shift is to match the engine and road speed, if you try to use the clutch it'll really throw you off. this guide gets you one step from actually driving a real truck I did it and have not looked back, love the change.

you have to enable the dev console:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1545684338

in game press [`] the type the 1st commnad, and [enter].
repeat for the 2nd.

It only applies to current profile, so if you have multiple profiles and want it enable, have to do it in each

Glad to help, started using non-sycromesh in ATS 6 months ago, really like it.
I do double clutch most of the time.
The first console command disables the synchronic gear box, a must for double clutching or floating gears.
The 2nd enables the clutch break when fully pressing the pedal. Not sure if all RL american trucks have it, but very useful when staring in an incline.

As a trucker in real life, i can attest to the realism of shifting with the non-synchronised transmission in this game, floating feels very good. The timing is spot on for the Eaton fuller 18 speed. And to answer above yes American manual trucks have a clutch brake in them. You need to use the clutch brake in order to grab a gear when in neutral and stopped. (push clutch all the way to the floor)

I can second this, I just got my CDL and I learned on ATS. you can't feel everything like you can behind the wheel but it is a good start.

Just made the jump to non synchro after practicing floating gears with synchro enabled, couple of hours in and have got up-shifting down, still struggle with down-shifting though (usually because im having to slow quickly and theres alot to concentrate on) somtimes I loose it completely and have to start over.
