Firstly, I want to say a big THANK YOU to TurboLag. I got inspired by him and basically, this is his weather mod, but heavily modified. So, this mod includes better textures (I'm not the author, couldn't find the author to this mod.). SweetFX - modified it to give better look of the game Weather mod: The weather mod contains 3 different sunny days. 1 day with rain clouds, rain feeling. The sunrise has 2 parts. The first part has a reddish feel, sun still isn't very powerful. It's quite dark outside. The second part of the sunrise has a powerful sun. The sun is really bright. The sun rays are firstly orange and then transfer to pink. It is very beautiful. After that follows the day. I've made 3 sunny days. They differ very little. Couldn't really get many ideas of what to do here. And don't get me wrong, the day is beautiful as well. But it's beautiful in a different way. It's very realistic. I've tried to make the colors good and the lightning good. There is also a rainy/cloudy day. As rain isn't really possible in TDU, I've just made it with black rain clouds and rainy feel. This day is really beautiful as well. Maybe even more than the sunny days. After the day passes, there is the sunset. Every single day, there is a new sunset. My favorite is the last one. Sunsets aren't as beautiful as sunrises, but the last one really stands out from the others in my opinion. After the sun has fallen, follows the night. The night contains 2 parts. Moonlit and night. The moonlit is just for the transaction from day to night. It's not as dark. Sky isn't completely black, but dark blue. I made the nights, not as dark as other people make them. I've made a light around the car. It feels a little like headlights when you drive, but of course it's nothing near the night you can see in TDU 2. If you have any suggestions on what should I do/add/change, PLEASE let me know. I'm always open for new stuff. Screenshots are mostly from day,sunrise. I haven't made any screenshots of the night. Will probably add a video and some new screens soon. Click on the screenshots to be able to open them in full HD resolution. Screenshots: To install, simply extract in your main TDU folder. It is VERY important to set Anisotropic filtering to 16x. I did this in my Nvidia Control Panel. I'm not sure how it works on ATI, but this really improves the quality of the image. Known bugs: - Sometimes clouds don't appear. To make them appear, just enter Photo mode and change the hours a little, get back to what you were before and they'll appear (if the day has clouds. Not all days have clouds). I can't really tell if this mod is making the game heavy or not. It runs over 100 FPS for me, but it might be different with a low-end or mid-end PC. Altho I don't think anyone will have trouble running a 7 years old game. :) Download
