Realistic Brutal Graphics And Weather V13.7 [Updated 5-June-2026]

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.

Amateurish work. Fog only on trees and ground but not on sky?

great effort and all. it looks sorta cool. quick feedback.. i actually used previous brutal version 10 i believe and it was much more realistic. this one, it looks like you're driving through middle earth from lord of the rings.

Well, I have driven a couple 1000kms since installing this mod and I actually really like the work you've done here! Installed alongside an Autumn Scencery Mod and it makes for one nice drive! :mrgreen:

I'm yet to test with Winter Mods but my suspicions are that they'll conflict due to the certain files that you have changed and the certain files that Winter Mods change...
