If I may ask what's the difference between this and schumi's real company logos?
Re: [REL][WIP] Real companies, gas stations & billboards | V3.1 for 1.40 - 1.46
It adds more then just real companies like the name suggests. Besides mentioned things it has fastfoodrestaurants, some AI traffic and a lot of general smaller signs.
Further, the community on Steam has a lot of input for this mod and it has great accuracy and balance of textures and models. For example; not all signs are 3D-logo-shaped signs in real-life, but sometimes an unlit board in a field. This mod keeps that in account.

Awesome. Currently I'm using another real companies mod. Once I'm done with my current delivery I'm going to switch over to your mod here to check it out! Should I continue to use schumi's real company logos as well or better to just have yours?MLH82 wrote: ↑10 Jan 2023 20:33 It adds more then just real companies like the name suggests.

Thanks for the hard work!

@MLH82 - You and 4of25 do an amazing job at this mod! I especially liked the timely billboards during the Christmas season.
If I could nitpick one thing, it's that the texture of the Greyhound bus livery is noticeably darker on the color scale in the far distance. Here's a comparison of the LOD models with only this mod enabled (no other mods).

I had to zoom in for that screenshot because it is very far... but it's noticeable to me if nothing else is in the way. Here is a more clear comparison but with your manual LOD distance tweak removed and g_lod_factor_traffic (a console command and config.cfg setting) set much lower to make it easier to see.
Far away texture:

Close-up texture:

I've tested the vanilla game and it doesn't have the darker texture problem. I think the LOD texture transition in your mod can be improved by lightening the gray in \vehicle\ai\greyhound_mc12\ai_lod3_baked_farland_dif.dds, then you wouldn't have to include the def file for the Greyhound bus.
In my opinion it's better to just recommend g_lod_factor_traffic to be set to 1.4 for those computers that can handle it, because the weaker LOD transitions in AI traffic seem to be across the board for ATS 1.46. Hope this helps

@Drive Safely Thnx for the compliment and your detailed information. At the moment we are struggeling to get LOD's in on the right way so all info is much appreciated! I will have a look on the greyhound later on today.
@m3lover1 Thats up to you, personally Im not a big fan of using multiple mods that do the same. You wouldnt get any crashes out of it, but some unintended weird things. Like seeing a Shell logo and the job info will say you are at Texaco and other similar issues.

Thanks @MLH82 I'll just be using yours. Maybe ATS Real Logos Project by keeper below your mod if it doesn't conflict too much.

I mentioned this on Steam but it seems like all my BPs don’t work.
I know you asked for specific towns and locations but it’s all BPs everywhere.
Chevron, Shell, etc. work fine and show up as intended. BP does not.
