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.

Perhaps you have other traffic mods or maybe your ETS2 is 1.54? It'll be easier to solve the issue if you provide more info such as mod loading order and a log file.

There are red brake lights on the road but no cars or streetlights to be seen. In Corsica, on the T40 road towards Porto Vecchio.
Otherwise the mod runs stable, top work. Thanx

Yeah, I saw them too in many different places. No idea why it happens and why there is light but no car :shock: Probably a ghost or something, call the X-files! :D

Hey, great work on this mod, one of my favorites for a year, but:

Is there no Traffic Addon version working for 1.54?
If there is, how can I access older versions of the mod?

Mainly asking because with the traffic addon active in 1.54, no cars load in, only trucks/busses, etc.

Sorry friend, there is no Traffic Addon for 1.54. Latest updates were for 1.53 and 1.55 only.

Hi Avelium! First I respect u for ur job! Say, did u see the Superlights mod by Arayas? Unfortunately he abandoned it long time ago. But this mod has a good implementation of traffic headlight lighting. Cars drive and illuminate the road and objects in their path, as in reality. And it is visible from far away. Can you implement something similar in your mod? Thanks!

Hi! It is possible to make similar headlights like in your video example, but there are some issues that make them almost unusable.

Firstly, it's performance, as it became worse since 1.50 having lots of traffic with this kind of lights is very resource-heavy task. Secondly, the lights won't look as good because of how they are rendered in game now. Check attached screenshots and notice sharp cutoff line of the light cone. Looks bad, doesn't it? I've tried a lot of options but couldn't fix it, unfortunately.

I still use this kind of lights for SCS vehicles in Traffic Addon. So don't try to blind AI cars with your high beams and aux lights 8-)
