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.

I'll give this a try tomorrow!

I'll have to say though, its the most realistic looking winter mod I've seen, as you don't get just full blanket of snow across the whole of Europe.

Works Perfect For Me On Steam Beta v1.14.x. I Must Say What A Great Mod This Is. It's Lovely To Drive Through And Very Realistic Because There's Not Blankets Of Snow Everywhere And Truck Isn't Slipping And Sliding Everywhere. Great Work Grimes :)

I'll agree with both the above. A nice gentle covering of frost and/or snow. Just like last night IRL. Reminds me of summers in the N.E. of England when I lived there. Oh, I still do!!

So downloaded and installed on one of my profiles ready for a tour.

UPDATE !!! Dropped the mod into a couple of (in use) profiles but sadly crashed them. :(
Works OK on a vanilla profile/game though. This is on v1.13.3 with several traffic mods etc. installed.

Here's the last couple of lines from the game log, pre-crash:

Code: Select all

317 00:00:16.933 : game
318 00:00:17.250 : [bullet] Starting physics server: Bullet
319 00:00:17.257 : <ERROR> [unit] File '/def/nice_weather.sii':
320 00:00:17.257 : <ERROR> [unit] The unit 'nice.sun.01' of type 'sun_profile' has dangling pointer (to 'hdr.night') in the attribute named 'hdr_parameters'.
321 00:00:17.258 : <ERROR> [unit] File '/def/nice_weather.sii':
322 00:00:17.258 : <WARNING> [unit] The pointer to 'hdr.night' looks like dangling pointer.
323 00:00:17.258 : <ERROR> load_filtered_unit_array() - Failed to load units from file (/def/nice_weather.sii)
324 00:00:17.258 : <ERROR> /def/nice_weather.sii read failed !
It's late and I am a bit "monitor blind" but I will sort it hopefully.

Also if vrinho has it working on v1.14 I'll just have to hang on until it (v1.14) is released.

But I'll say again a very nice looking mod and a cracking excuse to turn down vegetation detail!!

Thanks for the comments Elmer, do you have any weather or lighting mods installed on the profiles it crashed?
