heLLo!

 

Nope, winter isn't dead yet in TDU. It's back... bigger, better... and much more epic!

 

From now on, you can enjoy in:

 

- 4 new types of grass texture,

- 4 new 2D types of pine tree,

- 4 new types of winter weather,

- 9 new snowflakes,

- skeleton trees on island,

 

and most important thing...

 

- you can turn your HDR on now! Woohoo!!! *happydance*

 

 

Requirements?

 

- TDU Crazy Winter Edition 1.5B by Opelos_HUN (http://forum.turboduck.net/showthread.php?t=15313),

 

/Optional/

 

- Snowy Tires for TDU by EyeKatcher (http://forum.turboduck.net/showthread.php?t=15801),

- iLLusion Snow Tyre Chains v1.1 (http://forum.turboduck.net/showthread.php?t=15783).

 

...

 

And nope, pics are not edited in PS. They ARE ingame pics. It's like real paradise... ey? ^^

 

 

DOWNLOAD Winter Paradise v2.0

 

If you have low-spec PC, you may try v1.0 (HDRdisabled) instead.

Feel free to share/modify as you wish. I'm only asking you to credit me as original author. Thanks!

 

Don't forget to read included info file for more informations.

 

Big thanks goes to Opelos_HUN (http://forum.turboduck.net/member.php?u=14928)

for bringing winter time into TDU with his Crazy Winter Mod! Also, I have to thank him for skeleton tree files. Oh, and I can't forgot his 2D Tropical Paradise that, in the end, inspired me to try and make Winter Paradise!

 

I would like to say thanks to Maciuk (http://forum.turboduck.net/member.php?u=16074) too for his fog settings used in WP v2.0.

 

 

So? What are you waiting for? Go and play now! Enjoy!

Hehe, I'm glad you like it guys. :)

IMHO, from all SUV's I've tested so far in TDU, this one got best interior view and it's a really great model. I'm enjoying driving it.

 

@Leadfoot[YT]

Trust me, I've tried numerous tweaks with Weather_HDRI with no succes. I would like to play winter mod with enabled HDR too, but I'm affraid it's not possible... for now. You know, never say never. :D Who knows, maybe someone will eventually get it right.

Ooo damn. Houston, we have a problem. ^^

 

I've noticed that one of files in Papers.bnk isn't quite right. Instead of being a snowflake like rest, he's just big piece of black paper with snowflake drawn on him. Hilarious! XD

 

I've tried to fix it, but... something is wrong and there's no changes at all. I'll seek Opelos help on this. :D

 

Cya.

Good knews people, good news indeed! 2nd version of Winter Paradise will be something special! First, Opelos did send me those tree files without leaves, and trust me, they look cool ingame, so there's no need for 2D ones. Second, grass will be a bit shorter, and as for 2D tree textures, I'll include 4 different pine trees this time.

 

Now we come to the point you've been waiting for. ^^ You may turn your HDR on without being blinded by color of the snow. I've drove for half of hour and pretty much enjoyed myself. HDR makes real difference. :D

And nope, these are not edited in PS. These ARE ingame pics. It's like real paradise... ey? ^^

 

Also, I'll have to tweak weather files, most probably night will go out cause of HDR. :(

 

I can't promise quick release of v2.0 cause I'm short with free time (3 more exams left, woohoo!), but what I can do is to share info about enabling your HDR yourself. That will keep you going until a release.

 

Go to your FX folder and search for HDRIConf.ini. Then under HDRCONF_NAME = "Default" you'll see 4 lines of code. Play with numbers and set them to lower values. For example, mine settings are as follows:

 

HDRCONF_NAME = "Default"

 

HDRCONF_GLOW_MOD = 0.6

HDRCONF_STAR_MOD = 0.1

 

HDRCONF_BRIGHT_THRESHOLD_GLOW = 0.2

HDRCONF_BRIGHT_THRESHOLD_STAR = 1.4

 

You may further increase/decrease these values as you wish.

 

Good luck, and be patient. v2.0 is worth waiting for! ;)

@Psyhoman

It's standalone. You don't need 1st version in order for this to work.

 

@turbo lag

You don't have to wait too long. ;)

 

@all

I've decided to put it to 5th gear and finish it ASAP. Result? All tasks are finished in record time and I'll release it in a hour or two. Sounds good? Well, it better be! :P Anyway, I'm looking forward to see your reactions and comments to v2.0 of my Winter Paradise mod. There's no doubt you'll enjoy in it. Hihihihi. ^^

 

Here comes few more screenshots...

EDIT:

 

v2.0 RELEASED!
