I’ve noticed the new camper in one of the photos which is located in Istanbul

They updated the screenshots probably because of the New Lighting System. The old screenshots were still in the old lighting. Gradually they are updating the pages of the DLCs released before the New Lighting System update.

I thought the lighting feature came in 1.40

[Marcello Julio]

Yes, it was in 1.40, on March 24, 2021, where Iberia was released in April being the first map expansion to benefit.

[Trakaplex]

Yes, it did come out in 1.40. Forget all this. Did so except for GE as well.

Wait wait. So at the time, only Iberia benefited from the update? I forgot the process, though I know it was a long one, were none other older prefabs and stuff remodeled for the lighting update? Because if that is so, changing the screenshots won't do much if the buildings and foliage and others still can't reflect the changes.
I mean you can see in the screenshots above that the light definitely changed hue, but that's about it.

the update was done when 1.40 came out, this was the whole reason why Iberia came later so they dont have to do the work twice for the DLC, the changes made were to textures/materials and i think vertex color of models were also touched up to the new changes

If you know what you're looking for there's a pretty substantial difference. First off there's SSAO which is independent of the lighting update. Then with the lighting update you can see softer shadows, better depth cueing, more realistic ambient light (notice how the tops of the trucks are now tinted blue like the sky), etc.

RttBS is getting custom city intros in 1.47. Funny that it came out on Twitter before the blog post went up.
