ETS 2/ATS Lighting Improvements v1 - BETA
Added 2025-03-23 03:57:38 +0000 UTC
This is Beta version of Lighting Improvements.
This version is just for testing and fixing new lighting improvements.
Currently there is no settings for performance/quality, dynamic weather/sky, default reflection system, night time/time of day. More features will be implemented in the future.
There are some shaders not implemented yet, if you see any object/light missing in the game, probably thats why. I will implement missing shaders with updates
To get most natural colors, select sRGB colors from your monitor settings
Roadmap :
Fixing crash issues
Fixing invisible/incorrect objects/lights
Adding custom improved rain/snow (I will focus on improving overcast weather)
Adding seasons without changing assets (it will be hard to do without changing assets but I will try)
Adding dynamic weather/sky instead of using settings
I will try to add night lighting (streetlights, headlights etc requires a lot of change for new lighting)
I will try to add sunlighting without making it look bad (game doesn't use PBR textures so its hard to keep details with sunlight)
I will try to change vegetation assets and road textures (this is not hard but its boring and long process)

Hello Snowy! Your mods are definitely essential for ETS2 gameplay. Congratulations on your work!! I use an AMD GPU, and when I activate TAA antialiasing from your mod, the game crashes. Otherwise, with just the new mod it doesn't crash. We would like you to fix this. We in the community thank you immensely.

Please fix this.

Good afternoon! I really like your modifications! I go to ets 2 and have been using your image smoothing mod for a long time, I was especially pleased with the opportunity to use the dlls 3.5 with the latest preset f via override dlss. So, I tested your mod in vr, it even works, the lighting changes, but unfortunately some other translucent image layer is superimposed on the image of each eye, which also blinks ( How difficult is it to fix it? I'm waiting for you to fix vr and come back again, it looks very cool and more realistic on a flat screen! Thanks for the work!

I have checked and my GPU always on 86% for both interior and exterior and CPU on 23%, seem like a big bottle neck here. I love the quality of the mirror you have done there but it affects a lot on my fps sadly. I wonder if you could give me an option to lower the mirror quality ;-; Thank you for the amazing light improvement!
MemeBundy
2025-03-24 13:32:58 +0000 UTC
I will fix missing objects/lights. For mirrors, are you using low resolution? This version also applies TAA to mirrors so it should look good enough on lower resolution mirrors. Also can you check if you have high gpu usage inside cabin, maybe its cpu bottleneck
Snowy Moon
2025-03-24 13:26:11 +0000 UTC
Yes, because its using custom rendering pipeline, there is no need to enable a lot of things. And I know people are going to make a lot of mistakes if I write them or show them, instead I just disabled them by changing config functions. My plan is improving lighting and assets (maybe) to get best possible result and you won't need these settings because it will be mostly custom systems

Zeolite
2025-03-24 13:11:45 +0000 UTC
Is it just me or does the plugin override some graphicsettings which can't be changed manually even if i try (shadows, reflections etc.) ? I mean its not bad when the plugin works properly...i just noticed that. And ...if you done with it, we will no need a lightmod for ETS2/ATS no more right ? Because you all do this with shaders ? The start looks very promising of the plugin. Good work man :)
MStreppelhoff
2025-03-24 13:10:22 +0000 UTC
Love the graphics! I'm currently playing with GTX 1650 laptop and facing some problems:
1. I'm missing indicator light in the dashboard and beacon lights
2. The exterior fps is almost the same as the org graphic (~60fps), but half the fps once I go to interior view (30 fps).
Hope you can improve the fps and maybe implementing some options to adjust the interior mirror quality since I prefer my mirror to be more performance over quality.
MemeBundy

I'm not sure, as I only played the previous versions for about 20 minutes, and I didn't encounter any invisible textures.

snowymoon, you have optimized the mode really well in the game, there is no stuttering at all, I play comfortably, the reflections are great, and the lighting is good, but it would be great if there is a wet road when it rains in the game, for example, like gta 5, I would like to see sun and shadow in the next update, and enable the lightning effect in the rain, if these things happen, it will look good in the game.

Boa Tarde!, Que ótimo trabalho! Você conseguiria funcionar para placas gráficas AMD que não possuem "DLAA ou DLSS"?? Acho que assim como eu Usuários AMD não estão conseguindo abrir o jogo sem que trave quando ativar o TAA! Muito Obrigado! my video board AMD RX580 8gb.

Do you recommend using it with JBX-style graphics mods or similar? I mean, would it look better without them, or is it the same thing?
Congratulations! The work you've done is incredible, and everything looks so different.

You really cooked SM 😏 I'm sure the beta will only get better overtime. As others have commented regarding "Reflections", settings revert back to default(50% and low). Chrome truck parts are black, wheels are either black or display a bluish/purplish texture, shader issue. Haven't tested night yet.

First of all, I would like to congratulate you on this incredible work, it was magnificent. Now you have made me completely dependent on this plugin, this is worse than any drug ever invented by humanity. 😅
A few tweaks and it will be perfect.

First of all, I would like to thank Snowy Moon for the incredible work he has done!
Report - ETS 2 (v1.53.3.19) - 03/23/2025:
- It didn't open with Reshade active, I removed it from the folder and the game started;
- When turning off TAA, Lighting gets stuck on a single sky;
- With TAA active, the traffic lights don't work, you can't see their lights (red, yellow, green);
- With TAA active, it doesn't get dark, even at midnight, it only gets dark when TAA is disabled;
- When TAA is disabled, the traffic light lights are visible, regardless of the time of day;
- Significant FPS drop with Lighting and TAA active (40 FPS), with TAA disabled (night), the FPS is around 100 FPS (with vsync disabled and FPS unlocked);
- Even changing the game's video settings, they return to what they were, I believe this mod is doing this.
Some other information:
I tested with all AMD filters disabled;
I used a profile without mods;
I reset the config (I activated only the console and developer for the tests);
Truck tested: DAF XF Euro 6.
My configuration:
AMD Ryzen 5 4500
16GB Ram
RX 6600 8 GB

WOW, first time I have really seen the inside of my Western Star truck, LOL. I did notice like others the dash lights are so dim, on several of the presets I used, some worse than others. And I could see no traffic lights glowing in any city I went thru. And I did read no night and day yet, but that's not a big deal. Keep up the good work, and no I am not complaining, just helping with the debugging, :)

Hi Snowy, i just downloaded your mod, and it's truly amazing. Congrats ! The vegetation and motion blur, are amazing! Although i have some feedback and suggestions for you to keep in mind for fixes :
- reflections on trailers and trucks, are too high and overexposed : https://i.imgur.com/JSwClZX.jpeg
https://i.imgur.com/eAEJ5E1.jpeg
- if i disable on the menu, the sky goes black : https://i.imgur.com/B74970M.png
https://i.imgur.com/BD4qcWt.png
- if i choose DLSS performance rev2, the game will stutter at 1-2 fps (i have RTX 3070). The fps will rise from DLSS Quality rev.2 and up.
- the skies are too overexposed :
https://i.imgur.com/JTki4kL.jpeg
https://i.imgur.com/Nf38ijT.png
- the speedometer lights, does not work with this mod. On my MP4 actros with this mod https://www.cmi-industries.com/2022/05/cmi-mp4-interior-bundle.html
Example no light from speedometers :
https://i.imgur.com/bsaFroL.jpeg
- same example with Scania R2009, but with permanent lights on, even if i turn to 0 the lights.
- reshade does not open in-game, although i followed the instructions, here is my screenshoot : https://i.imgur.com/UBYLBDb.jpeg
- the interior in the cabin is overexposed in terms of lighting
In the future, were can we write a feedback ?
Thank you and keep up this amazing and unique mod! Can't wait to see in the future, those fixes and PBR textures. Will costs you some money but don't worry, the community will support your mod because we haven't seen this kind of technology on ETS2 or ATS never so this project must continue to be better and better.

It looks very good, it feels like I actually want to play the game (after 3k hours between ats and ets2 im bored of the same clunky look). I haven't had crash issues maybe because the .cfg file reset itself and I had to redo all graphic settings which is good. On performance side I noticed a 10% more gpu usage (playing on RTX 3060 2k and 200% scaling, FXAA enabled DLAA) but 0 Latency.
This is going to the right direction and I can see a bright future of the mod, however I understand doing this by all yourself can be boring and frustrating after a while. I hope SCS does really consider to hire you, they hired less talented modders as devs (my opinion), the problem is they do not care that much about the graphic side, they care about mapping (I can understand the business side of it).
Keep up the great work, wish you the best.

After I rename the reshade dll file to something else and restart the game, it works normal. Using snowymoon mod, I feel like no need to use Reshade anymore. That's my case.

the closing of the ui? It happens every time i close it. It's with and without reshade. If it's the reshade thing you can't replicate, i'm unsure, i'm using the latest version, 6.4.1? It's in it's own reshade folder, it worked with the last one, just not this version. It doesn't seem to be producing a log either. at least not that i can find...

I will add some logs in next version to help us understand what is the problem

Probably there are some shaders I didn't implement yet, I will check them later after fixing important problems

Its changing some settings from the game to disable some features like shadows because this system is going to have custom settings

I should fix that but I couldn't replicate it yet, does it happen everytime or sometimes?

Wow, this is so good, even it's still in beta. The graphic quality is just like playing on RTX series, with almost no performance lost (playing on GTX 1650 Laptop).
The issue is the lighting of the truck interior (especially the turn signal on dashboard) and other objects have vanished, I can't even see the traffic light.
Good job and keep it up.

Its for custom assets I'm going to use. Currently only skies but in the future it will also contain new trees, grass, models, textures etc
