I’ve made some adjustments to the physics.sii file from Frosty Physics addon, so there’s still understeer, there’s still chance to slip out, there’s also wheel slip on excessive acceleration while there’s no chance of uncontrollably spinning out, as well as launching the vehicle into outer orbit for no reason. Finding right values for longitudinal and lateral grip factors to get the intended vehicle behavior was quite difficult.
Here’s pastebin of the adjusted physics.sii file
https://pastebin.com/HM75HL0J
The issue of Frosty Physics being disabled in TruckersMP is mostly related to negative lateral friction coefficient while keeping the longitudinal one at 0, which can lead to unpredictable vehicle behavior, since at some point there’s negative friction on tires, which can cause the vehicle to accelerate rather than slowing down.

Physics version v8.02 is really a lot lot better than v8.0. I already tested it.
No cabin shake when idle
You can easily do hard braking without being sent into sky or under map. But of course you can slide and brake distance is way longer.
I can suggest to add a LITTLE bit oversteer (but controlled) and that’s it. Just like in the 2018 wintermod.
We are waiting for this physics on TMP

Having tried all 3 versions of the physics, I will say that for “TMP’s” standards the 8.02 file seems the best, because you cant spin around super fast in a 4×2, or gain speed if u spin out on the road, you can still be flung but that’s due to scs physics not grimes.
I used the v8.0 physics and I never had any real problems in the first place, v8.01 however is worse than v8.0 because coming round corners in a city at like 20mph my truck already wants to start spinning.

I have to say that the Heavy Winter Addon is in my opinion the only way to experience the Frosty Mod and Frosty Winter Weather Mod for ATS and ETS2 respectively. My ultimate state of the mod would be for a Heavy Blizzard Addon that would have even more snow on the road, but that’s just my ‘pipe-dream’. I just love the seasonal mods a lot, but especially the Winter ones and especially the ones that have bare branches on the deciduous trees. Maybe someday, SCS will come to the party and make it so the ‘time-zones’ won’t have, for example PDT and MDT and the equivalent European daylight times, meaning daylight savings time, because we all know that the game engine only knows summer in the official game. I can’t stress enough and I apologize if I gush too much about your mods, but the mods are a real game-changer for me.

I just want to say that this mod is awesome. One of the best mod ever and certainly the best winter mod. Just lower the window on the driver’s side when it’s snowing and you’ll see what I mean.

You’ll really only notice the physics without a trailer or when it’s snowing, adding a trailer provides a lot more stability as there’s no way to make the trailer slippy.
LikeLike
Yes. I have driven the truck without trailer and nothing, but i was thinking… ¿does the type of tyres matter? Because im using a tire mod, not the in-game original tires
LikeLike
No the tyres don’t make a difference, the type of truck will tho, for example a 6 wheeler will have a lot more grip than a 4 wheeler, this mod doesn’t make your truck slip and slide all over the place, in fact if you drive carefully you won’t notice it that much, it’s only when you drive too fast or take a corner too quickly for example.
