What this mod does

Realistic Air Seat Suspension, by lambo, makes the movement of the air-suspended driver’s seat feel more like the real thing in Euro Truck Simulator 2. It has over 53,000 subscribers on Steam Workshop.

What it does

  • Smooth movement over bumps and uneven roads.
  • Natural reactions when leaning, turning, braking and accelerating.
  • Almost no jerking at low speed and when parking.

Required settings

  • Enable physical camera movement.
  • Physical camera movement factor: 155% (balanced) or 200% (more immersive).
  • Interior camera horizon lock: 10% (balanced) or 0% (more immersive).
  • Recommended: road bumpiness simulation between 120 and 155 (140 is the balanced sweet spot) and cabin and suspension stiffness at 0%.

The author says these recommendations are for the default 1.58 physics. If you use a physics mod, you may need to tweak them.
