Forum rules
SCS as a company do not wish to have paid mods on this forum. While we understand that not all paid mods use the Intellectual Property of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is and isn't acceptable when money is involved. There are also concerns that it could look unfavorable to potential work partners going forward if SCS allow mods that may potentially use unlicensed branding.

Realistic Rain v4.7.1 [15/12/2023]

This mod does not modify probability of rain (game options you have for it)
This mod does not modify the fog, weather or sky textures.
You will find rains of different intensities that are controlled by the game or Weathers mods (not by this Mod)


Features

- Improved textures of raindrops from inside cabin (windshield & windows) higher resolution and better defined textures
- Increased the amount of raindrops on the windshield and windows
- Better textures of the 'exterior rain', better transparency and shorter "lines"
- Improved the effects and behavior of raindrops on the windshield and windows
- Improved textures & effect for particles/spray of the wheels when the asphalt is wet (Truck player and AI Traffic)
- Dynamic sounds of rain. Effects, attenuations and transitions according to the intensity of the rain
- High quality thunder sounds. Around 20 various sounds, including delay between 1 and 5 seconds, simulating IRL.

Note: The number of raindrops on windows will vary depending on the intensity and the direction of the rain (controlled by the game)

Compatibility

- Support for FMOD Sound Engine
- Compatible with all trucks, all DLC's and Mods Maps (ProMods...)
- Compatible with Sound Fixes Pack by Drive Safely
- Compatible with 'Optional mod' for Convoy Mode
- Tested with Default Weather (SCS) and Weather mod by Juninho944

Note: You should know that Autumn Seasons By Grimes disables thunder and high intensity rain. The lack of these aspects is not from 'Realistic Rain' mod.


Requeriments

- Must have high priority in Mod Manager. Realistic Rain ABOVE/ON TOP of Weathers/Graphics, Maps and Sound mods.
- Recommended: Turn off the reverb options in the game sound settings, the sound will be cleaner and without echo for all ambient sounds, engines etc.

This is perfect with the new wiper speed introduced in 1.35. Thanks!

I have gone back to 2.1 as I cant hear the rain hit the cabin in 2.2 for both ATS and ETS2 and thats with the louder sounds mod. prefered the louder rain sound.

Edit - back to 2.2...I increased the volume to 0.36 and put the pitch back to 0.99.... much more realistic for me.

@R_A_ZZ Did you place the mod in high priority?

Also, sometimes, the game saves something in the cache memory, and you need to add the Mod to the list, load the game, save and restart the game, try this.

loud rain was set to 0.32 pitch 0.85 in 2.2 so I raised them as I mentioned above... thanks I love this mod.

@R_A_ZZ : Thanks for the info. I will keep it in mind for future versions, I try to find a balance so that the rain and thunders are heard correctly but do not interfere in other Mods (Sound Fixes Pack, Traffic sounds cipinho etc ...)
