(UPDATED 08.02.2024) Better Raindrops v1.9.4 [ETS2 v1.49]

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.

@Avelium As you may already know the only way to increase the amount of raindrops and workaround the hard-limit is to add more glass panes in the cabin model. And then the performance hit can be huge :D

Nice mod btw!

Do I put this mod below or above Improved SCS rain?
You implied, that this is compatible with it.

Thank you! Well, I've run some tests on my PC and figured out that biggest performance impact gives me traffic (I'm playing with Real Traffic Density mod), although 3x number of particles might took a couple fps as well, but personally I think it is worth it :)

Mod is updated to version 1.2

Changes:
New sound effects for wiper and rain
Added TSRM fix for better compatibility

If you find rain sound inside truck cabin too loud - sorry in advance, it's because I have TSRM mod and it muffles exterior sounds A LOT, so it was necessary to increase volume. Also if you don't like new audio at all just delete sound and sound_br folders from better_raindrops_v1.2.scs archive :)

Small update:
Base mod is reuploaded due to wrong packaging settings. Please re-download!

Sorry, forgot that game engine doesn't like compressed archives with sounds and start spamming about that in the log -_-
