Indeed and realistically, the snow isnt' even there
I agree, it's not Purno's fault, more the ETS2 engine, that the snow physics set up just doesn't feel right.Martinus Kundla wrote:And IMHO the snowy-physics areas should be removed, they don't really make sense.

You are right. In green areas it's not that visible with darker and less shiny textures. Plus you have grass and other vegetation to hide transitions between two surfaces. Unfortunately we can't do seamless, dreamy landscape, but we try to do our best .Snow physics are bad. I'll see if we can do anything about it, but AFAIK it's somewhere in game core and can't be modded much.Martinus Kundla wrote:The main issue i see here is the way two different surfaces collide in snowy areas.

So I didn't see 10m snow banks in late May? My holiday photos must be photoshoppedMartinus Kundla wrote:Indeed and realistically, the snow isn't even there
Really? Then all that white stuff in the photo is what? Dandruff?Martinus Kundla wrote:Indeed and realistically, the snow isnt' even there

Could take a few months to melt down during summer, I guess?Abraxas wrote:Martinus Kundla wrote:Indeed at winter the snow is there, but in the time the game takes place (late summer i think?) the snow isn't there (i think).
