(UPDATED 08.02.2024) Better Raindrops v1.9.4 [ATS v1.49]
Hello! I'd like to share with you a mod aimed to improve raindrops appearence on windshield (and rain in general) and make game more realistic and immersive.
Key features:
- Add new texture and significantly increase number of raindrops.
- Improved physical behaviour of particles, now their spawn will be more affected by truck position relatively to rain inclination.
It makes a huge difference and vastly improve perception of weather! Just try it yourself!
- Reworked sound effects for wipers and rain
- New car splash trails
- Winter addon, replacing raindrops with snowflakes
- New audio settings for truck cabins improving reverberation and sound insulation
IMPORTANT
- In version 1.2 to main mod were added new sounds for rain and wipers. If you don't like them simply remove sound_br and sound folders from better_raindrops_v1.9.scs.
- In version 1.3 were reworked car splash trails. If you don't like them remove model and unit folders from better_raindrops_v1.9.scs.
- In version 1.6 was added TRUCK ADDON. It is a sub-mod that triples number of raindrops but ONLY FOR ATS SCS TRUCKS! INCOMPATIBLE with modded trucks!!!
- In version 1.8 was added Snowflakes addon, best to be used with Frosty Winter mod.
Load order and my personal sound settings:
Tweak these sliders to achieve comfortable sound level:
Rain inside, Wipers - Interior sounds volume
Rain outisde - World sounds volume
Mod is compatible with any other weather/sound mods, just give Better Raindrops a priority and place on top of others weather/sound mods.

Snowflakes addon:

Known issues:
If you experiencing performance issues after installing Truck Addon, try to reduce traffic by entering console command g_traffic 0.5. Change the number to find optimal balance between amount of AI cars and your FPS in the rain
