New traffic is soooo cool. :D

100% agreed.

Great! Can't wait to test it and see all those new features! Big thanks for bringing this patch to community! ;)

@Psyhoman ;) @Ozzmcom Almost as BC2. Still waiting for someone to pop out from behind the tree and to shoot at me with his RPG. :P @TheDuck38 Nope. This mod is different, not to be mixed with his 1.7B.

Open what?

Choosing weather you want is really easy. Just go to x:\Games\Atari\TestDriveUnlimited\Euro\Bnk\FX and open WeatherDesc.ini And delete/reorder lines you don't want. For example: You don't like fog? Want to drive by night when you start up your game? Just put last line NIGHT_M at first place instead of MORNING_TB1. That's pretty much it. :D Try to find your own config that suits you by moving/deleting lines. You may also notice timescale. The larger the number is, the faster time changes. Good luck.

Woohoo! :D

@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... btw. I've updated first post. Only thing missing is download link and screenhots. XD EDIT: v2.0 RELEASED!

Heheh. Thanks. ;)

I already know that Brian, but thanks for sharing. ;) I'm talking about putting a simple texture on those black locations. Nothing more, nothing less. :D

Ready for Winter Paradise v2.0? And nope, these are not edited in PS. These ARE ingame pics. It's like real paradise... ey? ^^ Check it out over here: http://forum.turboduck.net/showthread.php?t=17879 iLLusion

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: You may further increase/decrease these values as you wish. Good luck, and be patient. v2.0 is worth waiting for! ;)

I love driving this car. :D Only thing that ''annoys'' me is missing textures from gauges and GPS, so I gotta feeling like I'm driving a turned off car. I'm still hoping for a Tool to revisit this car and fix that small issue sometime in future. ^^

Great news. :D

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.

RELEASED!

I would like to know that too. :D

I've finished 4 tree types, 4 grass types... but I'm stuck with Weather.ini. I don't have enough free time right now to go through over all those numbers and make storm weather. So, it will have to wait for better times. :D

That would be great Opelos_HUN! Thanks! ;)

Hehe, I'm glad you like it guys. :) @killalldude From here: http://tdu-world.com/load/novye_avtomobili/inomarki/range_rover_sport_v8/30-1-0-380 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.

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!

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!

Hahahaha, good one. :thumbsup:

LoL StigSRB, it's not. :D Zailer did make X6, but let's be honest, it got few flaws, and IMHO, it should be beta. That's why we are still waiting on oldi to show us his work with this X6.

This was fast! Good job! I'm gonna try it in a second! ;) Thanks Zailer!

Looks decent Zailer. :D Can't wait to get my hands on it. But, can I suggest a few things? On the screenshot, it seems to me that interior view got some strange reflections. Exactly the one all mods had at the beggining of TDU modding.. Can you fix it? Just ask some of experienced modders for some guidance about it. ;) And will X6 have glowing/illuminated gauges? Including iDrive? That's about it, good luck with your project!
