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.

You need to change drop_count_per_meter value in
def\vehicle\interior_glass_config_rain.sii and interior_glass_config_snow.sii.

Hi @Avelium , there are no errors in the log! However, when I increase in .glass.config.rain:

drop_count_per_meter: 111200 and in .glass.config.snow: drop_count_per_meter: 5000

it looks like the snow increases, but it seems to be using the rain value of 111200 instead!?

Best regards,
FuRaX

I did some testing and it appears that the game is using highest drop_count_per_meter value, no matter the file. For example if you set rain at 0 drops and snow at 5000, you'll get 5000 particles for both rain and snow. Quite interesting peculiarity you've found, @FuRaX, good to know about it! Not sure if it's by design or a bug though :D

I would say its a bug beacause why then there are two defines, one for rain and other for snow if only one parametr is used.

Hi author, I would like to ask if this mod can be used together with mods like realistic rain or cold rain.

It can! But if you activate these mods together, shared files like rain textures and sounds, vehicle spray etc, will be overwritten depending on which mod has higher position in Mod Manager.
There are also some additional effects like truck cabin soundproof and world reverb modified by Better Raindrops. So if you activate another rain mod and place it above BR, these files will be untouched :)

Hi. Can you tell me how to remove the shine from the droplets? I've adjusted the size and intensity to my liking, but I don't know this parameter?

What do you mean by "shine"? Like a reflection/distortion? Try min and max_distortion_strength in interior_glass_config_rain.sii.

Hey, I've just found out about this addon of yours. You've said you'll update better flares for 1.59, what about this? Does this need to be updated too or is it still compatible?
