Hi All,

This post includes an early preview video of the upcoming RealCam preset, recorded to better show how the preset behaves in motion, which is where it truly shines compared to still images.

RealCam is a dedicated camera-based preset designed to replicate real-world camera behavior, inspired by actual camera optics and my own interpretation of how camera work should feel inside ATS and ETS2. Because of this, it has been developed as a separate preset, rather than modifying existing ones.

In this preview video, you’ll be able to see:

Natural exposure behavior across changing light conditions

The overall tonal response of the dedicated RealCam tonemaps

Different levels of camera distortion, which are far more noticeable and natural in motion

How the preset reacts during real driving scenarios rather than static shots

Please keep in mind that this is still a preview, but the preset itself has already reached a stable base. Any final tweaks from here are minor refinements rather than structural changes.

Thank you for the continued support — your backing makes it possible to spend the time needed to refine details like this properly.

This video focuses on how RealCam behaves in real gameplay, capturing everyday interstate trucking conditions as the route transitions from the urban environment around Omaha into the open highways and rural stretches of Iowa. Soft daylight, natural shadows, and a relaxed cruising pace make it an ideal scenario to demonstrate realistic camera movement and in-cab perspective. Project Ultimate RealCam RealCam will be available for both ATS and ETS2. The goal is to replicate real-world camera behavior, based on real camera characteristics and my own interpretation of how proper camera work should translate visually in-game. RealCam includes: - Multiple levels of camera lens distortion, allowing you to choose how strong the lens character should be - set of carefully tuned settings - Dedicated tonemaps, as the preset is highly light-dependent and requires correct tonal response The effect is far more noticeable and natural in motion than in screenshots — still images don’t fully represent how RealCam feels while driving. 00:00 Driving out of Omaha 02:51 Getting some Highway Action 05:34 Enjoying the Views in Iowa 🛠️ Mods Used in This Video: 🚛 Truck: Freightliner Cascadia by Polyfir Studios 🔊 Sounds: EVR Freightliner Cascadia Sound Pack 🎨 Graphics: Project Next-Gen (Spring) + SnowyMoon v2 + Project Ultimate RealCam (Preview) 👀 Head Tracking: Tobii Eye Tracker 5 🗺️ Route: Omaha, Nebraska → Iowa (ATS DLC) Sit back, relax 😌, and enjoy this RealCam preview drive — a first look at how realistic camera behavior, lens characteristics, and natural in-cab motion can elevate everyday ATS gameplay.
