@Avel So should you place this MOD under the Sound Fixes Pack? I saw in the introduction of the Sound Fixes Pack that all mods for sounds like rain need to be placed below it to work..

@伤心小熊仔, I've checked description on Realistic Brutal Graphics And Weather page and it says that:
"Important: Do not use with any other Weather & Rain & Graphics type or similar mods please Disable them."

Considering compatibility issues you've described I would recommend to use only one mod.
It is possible to unpack and merge RBGAW and Better Raindrops together but depending on modding experience it might be very time consuming option.

@Avel kass Realistic Rain & Thunder Sounds provides a raindrop particle system Is it possible to put it on top of your mod, if it's the other way around, I think so, so it becomes no raindrops, no splashes, no drip sound effects, better raindrops Put it under KASS, a realistic rain sound and thunder mod, is it better... Also, I put them under the sound repair package:

伤心小熊仔, you can load them together. Mod that has a higher position in the Mod Manager will overwrite others below it.

Can this be used with KASS's realistic brutal graphics and weather-realistic rain and thunder?

@kyotoryu, it is compatible with tuck/engine sounds, but not with rain sounds.

is this compatible with other sound mods like zeemods?

@PlaysWithWolves, thanks for sharing your opinion! I'll see what can be done.
Meanwhile, if you have engine sound mods, place them above Better Raindrops in Mod Manager. It should fix "excessive" muffling.

I really like the improved rain and snow. However, I had to deactivate these mods (both rain and snow in ETS2 and currently rain in ATS – the Frosty mod isn't available for ATS v.1.55 yet) because the sound is unbearable. Not the rain and snow sound itself, nor the windshield wiper sound, but the rest. The engine sounds completely muffled and is far too quiet. Playing with the controls didn't improve anything. Is there perhaps a way to make the four mods available without the modified sound effects? That would be really great.

Can we also have the truck addon in the workshop?

Hi Avel, please keep trying.For the GforceNow player the workshop is our only solution. Thanks for your understanding. Your work is the best

Thank you so much for this one. Made me crank up a bit the rain probability so I can enjoy this mod a bit more. Sadly the Steam one is the old version, but the one from the official SCS Forum works perfectly. Cheers!

where is the slider settings?

pls update 1.54?

Excellent work! It works perfectly with the other external Steam mod to increase the number of raindrops. It's my favorite mod I've played, and I think it's the one that most closely resembles real rain.

It's been so long, and there's still no way to update?

has this mod been updated or is the workshop uploader still down

@jiro, due to issues with Workshop Uploader I am still unable to update my Steam mods, so the latest versions are on SCS forum
https://forum.scssoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=319603

Why doesn't it work for me with the latest update? in fact, i have tried lots of raindrops mod and none of them work. But I tried to download a crack version of ETS2 and tried different raindrop, it work there just fine. Only the steam version's not working.

I love this. But if it had water mist,It will be better

работает со снегом?

@破door而入, well, sort of. Depends on how much it bothers you I guess, as you can always edit physics settings yourself

In other words, this problem cannot be effectively solved for the time being, right?

@破door而入, ah I understand now. Well, this issue is related to particle physics settings and game engine limitations.

As you've noticed in Better Raindrops mod rain particles are moving faster than in vanilla (unmodded) ETS2. But due to game engine limitations fast-moving particles start to ignore collision with wipers aftrer reaching certain speed threshold, which makes them move across entire windshield untouched.

It can be fixed by increasing friction and reducing acceleration values in physics settings, but it will make particles behaviour more dull and lifeless.

I don't know if this picture can explain this issue clearly, but please take a closer look.

@破door而入, hmmm... Wait, by 'raindrops flying straight across the windshield' do you mean interior raindrop particles on windshield that ignores collision with the wipers (particularly when driving faster than 70km/h)? Or something else?

At the moment I see this happening with the original Volvo FH3. As for the Truck Addon, it only uses some interior and lighting classes.

@破door而入, it could be a truck related issue. What vehicle are you driving? Do you have Truck Addon insalled?

I can occasionally see some raindrops flying straight across the windshield, is this a bug or a new feature? (v2.1.7)

破door而入, I'm waiting for Workshop Uploader to update, can't upload my mods right now because of it.
Meantime it is possible to get latest mod version from official SCS forum, if you want.

I always feel that since Winterland of world of trucks returns, the raindrops on the windshield seem to be less dense.......

One of the things I like most about this Mod is that it creates a muffled sound effect for the engine in the cab, which is one of the most comfortable sounds I've ever heard. Of course, the rain sound effect is also done very well. In version 1.51, there was a bug in the muffled sound effect of the SCANIA S BEV cab, and the sound of the motor was especially loud compared to Renault. I don't know if it has been fixed now, and I will try it in the next few days.

@srFtlDH, World Sounds Volume slider affects exterior rain and Interior Sounds is for rain inside the cab.

As for your personal settings, please try to reduce Interior Sounds Volume during rain until you feel comfortable. Also tweak World Sounds if necessary and let me know the values you've got.

@Avel, my audio setup: master volume 75%, world sounds 50%, interior sounds 50. If the sound of rain could be adjusted through the world volume, I adjust the world volume, but there's no response at all

@srFtlDH, I understand that different users have unique hearing and audio setups, also consider that rain could be pretty loud when hitting steel and glass surface of the vehicle. However I can try to reduce sound a bit more, but I need to know what are your in-game Master Volume level, World Sounds & Interior Sounds Volume in %.

The sound of rain in the new version is a bit too loud, maybe it can be reduced a bit.

@porndastreetz, make sure you're on version 1.53 and check if Truck Addon is placed after Better Raindrops in Mod Manager. Can't say what's the problem without log details.

If you install the Truck Addon, the game will crash.((

1.53 please

@Avel i noticed that if you use this mod with realistic rain mod the textures get fixed lol

@Tuğrab, there are issues on Mac with BC7 DDS textures used by Better Raindrops. BC7 is a most recent compression algorithm that provides better quality over older BC3 and BC1 versions. The downside is that not all systems/drivers support it at the moment (like Mac in your case), sorry

@Avel yes im playing on mac (sorry for late response)

@Tuğrab, are you playing on Mac (or Linux) by any chance?
