How to remove the annoying Halloween Theme?

[ZAIN]

Please stop touching our saved games with these events that change our in game assets to something we did not sign up for or ask for.

Not everyone in the world celebrates or cares about halloween and even if we did, you should ask us first if we want to take part in the event or not.

How do I remove this theme and how do i stop this from happening again? I hope the devs don't pull this kind of thing on christmas too...

People are seeing Halloween-themed things? Strange, I do not - thankfully - see anything like that ingame. Was there an official post about it?

I know Railway Empire did some atrocious changes like this, but at least you can hide these over there.

Lucky you if you did not get it. Nothing on the Release notes mentions it which makes it even more frustrating.

Dead trees everywhere, crows making noise when you zoom in, lava under the map. dark sky etc. I wish they spent the time to make this into making a day night cycle or a weather system instead...

I have the same issue. I basically could not play. It removes all the fun.

I am curious as to how it looks like lol.

Well, Halloween is gone now so hopefully if these changes were indeed official then they will be reverted ASAP.

maybe you two should compare mods to see which one is doing this

Yea I was thinking about this, if you use mods this could be mod related. Workshop mods are frequently updated and these changes will carry over to the game unless you copy these mods to the local mod folder and run them from there.

I really hope that's not true because if its a mod them i'm screwed. I have 600 of them installed and only 10 of them updated this month and none of them have anything to do with map changes, all involve trains..

look in the screenshots posted in this thread to see if you share any of the mods

switch the date to non 31.Oct.

[Byrd]

switch which date?

[Quantix]

It is definitively a mod. I started a game without any and the game was normal. I don't know which mod is involved.

It is this mod causing the issue:

FR_signal_mod_name.

The FR-signal-mod is in folder 1997183614 in your Steam workshop folder.
Open up res/textures. Delete the folder called 'environment'

This folder is not enough. Characters and trees have also to be removed. But if I do so there is no light anymore... It is the complete darkness
