Mods from the «Others» category 69

A mod, just a reworked media file that completely removes blur (not fog) at maximum settings;

- Fog is slightly reduced;
- Changes the game's "image" as you can see in the screenshots.

2-3 comparison screenshots for clarity (only this mod file installed on a clean game).

Installation:
Place the file in the media folder.

Works on a clean game and with my graphic mods (not tested on version 1.5.1)
With my graphic mods, the file needs to be installed in the TextureCache ZIP archive.

The weather is always like in the screenshots, with no sun at all. The fog changes slightly (on average, like in the screenshots).
Sometimes it can be applied to maps with flooding, autumn maps/mods, and mods with rain.
The archive contains the standard files.
You can install only the media file, but the effect will be weaker, and the evening and night will be slightly different.

Bright early autumn, in style:
Reduced fog;
No horizon blur;
Reworked cut fir trees, no longer looking so fresh;
Replaced textures of mud, dirt, forest ground, vegetation.
Files from M/R and S/R were used.
The mod is installed and removed simply by replacing with the original files (details in the archive).
Additionally, rain and overcast options are included in the archive.

Rain mod author: Dragonus.

P/S Encountered some maps that were interesting but lacked atmosphere. With this mod, such maps will become more atmospheric.

Here is the Christmas tree!
A young fluffy spruce, the textures are pretty good, definitely better than the default. Low-poly, which allows planting them in large quantities.

It naturally has animations for the lower branches and trunk, can be broken, default. The Ural 4320 (empty) can break it without impacts, with a slight acceleration it takes damage. The GAZ 66 without a cabin cannot break it even with effort; in general, it breaks under a force of 2 tons. There is a winch point.

The brush is traditionally registered manually at the path: Spintires Combine Tools\Media\prebuild\common\brushes.xml
Instructions are in the archive, along with all the registration details; just copy and paste according to the instructions.

The model was taken from open3dmodel.com and adapted for the game.

More inspiration to you, dear map makers!)

Another new spruce for the Spintires editor, it should also fit Mudrunner, but I haven't tested it.
The model with textures is taken from turbosquid.com.

Many thanks to the author(s).
Adaptation for the game (animations, texture adjustments, and configuration setup) – Ser.Rosszz (Sergey).
The lower branches are animated – 2 lower "rows" (height of a GAZ 66), trunk animation and everything else as per default.

The brush is manually registered in the path: Spintires Combine Tools\Media\prebuild\common\brushes.xml
Instructions are in the archive, along with the full configuration; just copy and paste it according to the instructions.
If you find the spruce too dark – write to me, I will make a lighter version additionally; it looks quite normal in the latest game version.

Good luck and beautiful maps!

The model has about 5K polygons, you can plant forests, but don’t overdo the density.

To follow the progress of my (and others’) work, visit the community, I’ll be glad to “see” everyone and chat vk.com/public192147265

Texture for the default Shishiga. A regular default texture with minor edits in Photoshop. Adjusted the color, some small details, added gloss to my liking, maybe someone will like it.

Uploading it so I don't lose it, there's nothing special about it. Increased the gloss on the body – it gives more metallic shine and freshness, while slightly reducing it on the windows.

Winter mod. Used some material from the authors of Volny (early snow mod) and Sergey Pasichnik.

Reworked the standard vegetation and media file, there is no sun at all, all vegetation is covered in snow.

It is bright during the day but without the sun, as the evening is cloudier.

Installation:
Move the contents of the archive to the root of the game.

For the mod, it is better to choose maps with little or no tint.

You can skip installing/moving the "media" file, then winter (atmosphere) will be in the standard version.
