Better Raindrops

Better Raindrops - ETS2
2 items
Description
Hello! I'd like to share with you a mod aimed to improve raindrops appearance on windshield (and rain in general) and make game more realistic and immersive.

Key features:
  • Add new texture and significantly increase number of raindrops.
  • Improved physical behaviour of particles, now their spawn will be more affected by truck position relatively to rain inclination.
    It makes a huge difference and vastly improve perception of weather! Just try it yourself!
  • Reworked sound effects for wipers and rain
  • New car splash trails

Tweak these sliders to achieve comfortable sound level:
  • Rain inside, Wipers - Interior sounds volume
  • Rain outside - World sounds volume

IMPORTANT
If you want to increase number of raindrops on windshield (3x) install Truck Addon.
ONLY FOR ETS2 SCS TRUCKS! INCOMPATIBLE with modded trucks and interiors.
DOWNLOAD TRUCK ADDON:

Mod is compatible with any other weather/sound mods, just give Better Raindrops a priority and place on top of others.

Known issues:
If you experiencing performance issues try to reduce traffic by entering console command g_traffic 0.5. Change the number to find optimal balance between amount of AI cars and your FPS in the rain.

@kyotoryu, it is compatible with tuck/engine sounds, but not with rain sounds.

is this compatible with other sound mods like zeemods?

@PlaysWithWolves, thanks for sharing your opinion! I'll see what can be done.
Meanwhile, if you have engine sound mods, place them above Better Raindrops in Mod Manager. It should fix "excessive" muffling.

I really like the improved rain and snow. However, I had to deactivate these mods (both rain and snow in ETS2 and currently rain in ATS – the Frosty mod isn't available for ATS v.1.55 yet) because the sound is unbearable. Not the rain and snow sound itself, nor the windshield wiper sound, but the rest. The engine sounds completely muffled and is far too quiet. Playing with the controls didn't improve anything. Is there perhaps a way to make the four mods available without the modified sound effects? That would be really great.

Can we also have the truck addon in the workshop?

Hi Avel, please keep trying.For the GforceNow player the workshop is our only solution. Thanks for your understanding. Your work is the best

Thank you so much for this one. Made me crank up a bit the rain probability so I can enjoy this mod a bit more. Sadly the Steam one is the old version, but the one from the official SCS Forum works perfectly. Cheers!

where is the slider settings?

Excellent work! It works perfectly with the other external Steam mod to increase the number of raindrops. It's my favorite mod I've played, and I think it's the one that most closely resembles real rain. :cat_stars:
