Realistic Graphics Mod (LITE VERSION)

Description
This version has real-world times (daylight hours)

Prepare for a comprehensive overhaul of weather dynamics with this ambitious mod, aiming to elevate every aspect of rain realism to unprecedented levels. Not content with mere intensity adjustments, this mod delves into every detail, enhancing rain textures to a level where each droplet becomes a mesmerizing visual spectacle. From subtle misty drizzles to torrential downpours, players will be enthralled by the lifelike portrayal of precipitation, as it interacts with the game environment with unparalleled fidelity. Moreover, this mod extends its reach beyond rain, enhancing overall graphics to ensure a cohesive visual experience that complements the newfound realism of the weather effects.

In addition to visual enhancements, this mod introduces additional atmospheric elements that further immerse players in the game world. Prepare to be awed by the dynamic interplay of lightning strikes and thunderclaps that punctuate the sky, heightening the sense of immersion and intensity during stormy weather. With a holistic approach to weather realism, encompassing rain intensity, textures, graphics, and atmospheric effects, this mod transforms the game environment into a living, breathing world where weather phenomena are as captivating as they are unpredictable.


Now that I adjusted the road reflections the tires slip A LOT, so for those who want to drive without cussing at you're truck because it won't turn, I will provide a link that'll fix that issue. **I suggest using the Goodyear Ultra Grip 315/80 tires**.

No Slippery Tires Mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3083751152

**PLEASE NOTE**
Place my no slippery tires mod above Real Tires Mod, and for the tires I recommend the Goodyear UltraGrip 315/80s


**Please note** As this version adds real-world times, this mod will be updated daily if I'm able to. I will still do bigger updates here and there, but those updates will take time. Enjoy the daily real-world time updates. :)
