Better Flares & Sounds (All Traffic Packs) [ETS2] (03-AUGUST-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.

Hi @gl00ria, thanks for your works! Is there a way to have addons for better flares, real spawn by egon, RTD from Cip, and Cip's sounds all together?

While im not @gl00ria, I figured maybe I could help, as I experimented some myself and came upon this as the most optimal solution for my load order incorporating most of what you asked about. My load order is listed below.

Better Flares - Real Country AI Spawns ADD-ON
Better Flares - Real Country Classic AI Spawns ADD-ON
Better Flares - Real Country Sports AI Spawns ADD-ON
Original Real Country AI Spawns files
Real Traffic Density ETS2 by CIP
Realistic Drivers - ETS2 version from Steam Workshop
Real AI Traffic Sounds ETS2 (FMOD) from Steam Workshop
Real Train Sounds ETS2 from Steam Workshop
Realistic Train Lengths from Steam Workshop
Real AI Motorcycle Sounds RTD addon from CIP's Discord
Real AI Motorcycle Sounds by CIP MAIN FILE from CIP's Discord
Better Flares for Sounds for Painted Truck Traffic from the post by @gl00ria on CIP's Discord
Better Flares for Sounds for BDF Truck Traffic from the post by @gl00ria on CIP's Discord
Better Flares for Sounds for Taxi Traffic Pack from the post by @gl00ria on CIP's Discord
Better Flares for Sounds for ETS2 Truck&Tuned Traffic Pack from the post by @gl00ria on CIP's Discord
FMOD Base for AI Engine Sounds ETS2 & ATS v1.38 from CIP's Discord
ANY UNSUPPORTED AI TRAFFIC PACKS GO HERE (I did not use anything other then supported packs personally)
Better Flares addons for all the traffic packs from the supported add-on list
Original traffic pack mods from the supported add-on list
Better Flares - Traffic
Better Flares - City Lights
Better Flares - Headlights (I used DOT NEUTRAL, but choose whatever suits you)
Better Flares - Base
Sound Fixes

Using this load order I did not notice any issues reported in the DEV CONSOLE or LOGS, and I seem to get proper spawning and flares with the vehicle sounds attached to them. Hope that helps you.

So, maybe it's translation difficulties, or maybe I'm just a wooden person. But this is how I figured out how to get a working version from your mods, sound mods, Jazzkat packs, Egon's add-ons for these mods, and even Larrington's mods. Each requires its own order.

@16tonn

I had to make a load order for each one of the mods since not all Truckers use all of them.

The comment above yours is kinda correct except for this one (Real AI Traffic Sounds ETS2 (FMOD) from Steam Workshop), which is going to override the Better Flares traffic addon by Avelium that covers the base game traffic vehicles.


I'm on vacation at the moment and I have no access to my device, I will make and publish a load order combining all of the above with a couple of updates soon.

Have fun till then!

EDIT:
(ANY UNSUPPORTED AI TRAFFIC PACKS GO HERE (I did not use anything other then supported packs personally)):
Also the above quoted one,
IMHO, Unsupported once should be under the Better Flares addons to avoid miss-matched headlights, noticed some steam packs actually copy-paste from JAZZYCAT'S. I don't use any steam packs anyway.

OK, so I think I downloaded everything but is the load order correct? The game seems to be working just fine with traffic etc spawning and the headlights & city lights seem different as well but I'm worried about breaking something else.

My load order:

Top1: https://ibb.co/SXyRyLBL
Top2: https://ibb.co/r8byLzb
Top3: https://ibb.co/PGffcSnv
Top4: https://ibb.co/2YvZ4xsm

It's not visible but I have sound fixes pack under everything too.

Quick glance over and didn't notice anything that was majorly off, if it's working fine and no errors in dev console and you like the looks, then call it a win. I did notice however that you are using the Emergency pack by Egon, but did not see where you had the better flares add-on for that installed, so you could add that if you wanted.

Didn't notice the ones for Egon's mods, I'll download them. However, I do get all sorts of red error messages when I look at the dev console. The game has never crashed though nor have I seen any graphical artifacts.
