Water in Game ATS and ETS2

Post by dOOmERdaZe » May 17th, 2021, 4:53 pm

Just wanted to post a tiny mod water replacement in 4k 4096x4096

water_ocean.dds 128x128
water_river.dds 64x64

Water in game is not that great so hopefully this will help
just open up this folder and you will see the default water.

\base\material\terrain\water\
the two files above are in this folder if you want to look. :)

Now for my two shots at 4096x4096 (4k)

tired of ugly water per say me too! so enjoy it only replaces textures no other files modified
place it higher if you have something similar that replaces the textures in game
I think it looks much better imo ..... hope you like it. :)

Links updated sorry guys always lot going on if something is not working please let
me know I will try and fix it, but the links or working now so you should be good.

@dOOmERdaZe

Thanks mate! Going to have a look at it later. I edited the DL link to be a link instead,
people shouldn't at that point see the content of the mod. Hope it's OK!

I dont have complains with SCS water. I have complains about the reflections and all those flickering things going on in it. Thats why water looks so terrible.
But unfortunately adding a 4k water texture will have a severe impact on performance and wont fix these issues.

Whats up guys,

Hope you all doing great, here is a mod for water reflection (hopefully) :)
and some screens to show what it looks like. Just place this mod above
my Water 4k mod (if you are using it?) :) all with higher up in mod manager
or else you may not get the water 4k and the water reflection effects.
Also I have done to the water a bit more calmer so to speak it gets nice result
including rivers etc ..Maybe get rid of the plastic look of water and flickering
There is no impact on this as far as I can tell runs great on my higher end machine
and my low end laptop as well, I have no issues tested on both machines.
if you do could be load order issue or you might just need to upgrade .... :)

Links fixed hopefully sorry guys always a lot going on to keep all updated
let me know my Youtube channel or here, on issues or concerns. Enjoy!


Let me know what you think get no feedback I assume you don't like it. :(

here is the mod:
