🌧️ Realistic Rain Mod By Darkcaptain for ETS2 - aims to overhaul the rain effects in ETS2, providing a more authentic and visually appealing experience. It enhances raindrop textures, windshield effects, rain particle behavior, and sound effects, including dynamic rain and thunder sounds. The mod does not alter the probability or duration of rain (controlled by game settings), nor does it modify fog, weather, or sky textures. It is designed to work with various ETS2 versions and map mods, offering a high level of compatibility and customization for players seeking a realistic driving experience.
