My point was the everlasting development, from a user perspective. No user had to know about the technical trickery to achieve compatibility. If one changed from the old line to the new, it was just a new "Windows". Well, that was at least what was advertised. The ride could have been a bit bumpy. :lol:

No, really no, horrendous looks that has nothing to do with realistic fog. The tunnel part is the point where it's more clearly shown how bad that "fog" effect is and why it was discarded time ago.

That "fog" was the looks of a 3D game in the past century with hardware of those times and was the most hated graphic trait on that era. There's no need at all to return to those times.

Hi all

The light shining into your truck from the street lamps and early morning/late afternoon sun has tooooooooo much yellow to it. It makes everything (which that light touches) look like mustard

Hopefully this will be adjusted soon

With respect to street lights -- If they're the orange-ish-yellow sodium vapor lamps, they will definitely cast a yellow-orange light that causes color distortion to the human eye.

I believe that under the old light system, the light cast into the cab was a uniform color temperature regardless of the color of the streetlights. The new system is supposed to allow colored light sources, so streetlights designated as sodium-vapor should emit roughly orange/yellow, ones designated as mercury-vapor can emit blue-green light, and LED or fluorescent ones can emit a more blue-white light.

Sunsets can tend toward golden-yellow all the way to reddish tones based on atmospheric scatter. I don't know if the weather system will be able to be linked to the lighting color temperature or not. Maybe? Or maybe to be further developed in the future? For now a gold/yellow color temperature is a good compromise at the very least. We just haven't had anything like it in the game up until now.

I want to say "Thanks" to SCS. New feature in climate.sii file now can save a lot of time for weather setup moders. So if Promods team include new feature in this climate files, so this map will be compatible with any "weather mod" at once.

I don't know is @angrykarl still work on weather or not. But I want to say, let's pay attention for climate mixind in game and in editor too. Exactly if you set "speed" coefficeint more than 0 (0.4 for me). Sun shadows begin work at the end of climate mix. So skybox texture already new, but sun shadows is still omitted. You can see it when game change from "bad" to "nice" and when you have shadow 0.1 or 0 in "bad" and 1 in 'nice".
Thanks.
