It's actually doable by changing the alpha channels in dds texture since they control the building effect in ETS2.

However this can result in repetitive patterns in a city since SCS uses alot of mipmapping in those buildings.

Kreuz Leverkusen, to be exact:
https://www.google.nl/maps/@51.0427741, ... !1e3?hl=nl

Fun fact: this is one of the very few interchanges in Germany that has streetlights. In fact, most Autobahns have no streetlights. You can only find them in:
1. Berlin (all within the municipality limits)
2. Köln/Leverkussen (BAB1, BAB3)
3. Bonn (almost all of them near the city)
4. Hamburg (BAB7, BAB23, the entire BAB25x series)
5. Bremen (BAB281)
6. Saarbrücken (BAB620)
7. Frankfurt am Main (BAB3 near the airport, BAB661).

A lit Autobahn is a very uncommon sight. So enjoy it when you see one :P

The difference between the Belgian motorways and the German Autobahns couldn't be bigger :P

Belgium: "lights everywhere! It blinds me!"
Germany: "it's so dark... where are my lights?" :lol:
