Unfortunately graphics mods are generally quite large as they involve changing lots of textures, there isn’t a light version at the moment.

Couple of thoughts on this mod. I kinda wish that nights were darker because they seem relativly bright also there shouldn’t be snow in tunnels. But other than that excellent mod 🙂

Have you tried my darker night skies mod, you can download it from one of the other pages, a tunnel is just a model placed over an existing road, that’s why you get snowy roads in tunnels unfortunately.

Hi, congratulations for the excellent work. Would it be possible to have a version like this but without snow? I think the transition from late autumn / early winter to this is too abrupt.
Thank you

I think it is the best Grimes can do until SCS programs seasons into the game engine. Once that happens, a more gradual seasonal change can be introduced.

I really like the mod. but…
Is there any way you can upload that 1.1GB file to another download server? such as google drive, among others ..
I always drop it and I can’t download it. I’ve been trying for days but I can’t even download half of the file. T-T

Strange, have you tried different browsers? Is it because you have slow internet or you’re just having issues with the website? I’m planning on updating this mod soon so maybe I’ll give the option to download it in small parts.
LikeLiked by 1 person
Yes, I have tried it in different browsers. My internet speed is no big deal. But usually, the downloads have no problems.
Seriously? What good news.
I would appreciate it a lot, many of us would like to download it in parts to be less tedious to download such a heavy file
Thank you so much! : D

That is a great idea for those with slower connections. ProMods does the same and their mod is over 2GB. They offer a full d/l in one lot, but they charge $1 USD and I’m guessing that is because servers aren’t cheap to run, but they also offer a free multi-part d/l and I think it is 5 parts in total.

I just hope I can try the mod in MP for the first time before they remove it. Oh, and by the way. My internet speed is 3MB. 🙂

I came up with an idea so you don’t take the trouble and time to divide the file into parts and make it possible to upload it without it being so heavy. And it would compress the 1.1GB file into a much lighter one, so the download would be faster and you wouldn’t have to create many download links.
LikeLiked by 1 person
You can use WinRAR or 7Zip to compress the files and users can unzip them when the download is finished.
LikeLiked by 1 person
The file is already compressed, an scs file is just a zip file, the actual size of Frosty uncompressed is 2.5 GB.

Hi, I’m keen to try this. I’ve read that, unlike other similar mods, it doesn’t make the roads all across Europe snowy. That’s good. Still, I wonder whether I’ll be able to enable and disable it at will without issue. Would hate to mess up my save.

Your graphics mods are my favorites, I’m glad to find these. Frosty and heavy winter on Finland map is very realistic, good looking. White + gloomy/dark most of the day, like it is in reality. Also, other seasons look like they should. Beautiful, skillful artistic work. Thank you.

Hey Grimesmods. I just installed this winter mod and it’s absolutely beautiful! It really is stunning. I just have one question regarding the temperatures. I put this mod on the top of the load priority, but still it reads temperatures like 21 degrees at 10:20 am in Poland. Surely that seems a bit unrealistic?
I then crossed the border to Slovakia, it jumped to -2 degrees which seems a lot better, but instantly jumped up to 21 degrees again. How do I fix this?

I’m loving your Frosty Winter mod but I know from previous years that I will hit trouble when switching to the Spring mod. The game will be looking to load the Frosty mod and will crash. Even if I remove the mod, then carry out a job with no weather mod, when I add the Spring mod it will crash.
Is there a set way of changing between seasons? Thank you.
LikeLiked by 2 people
Enabling and disabling season mods makes no difference to your save game, perhaps the last time you tried to enable the spring mod is was an out of date version which caused the game to crash, it’s not because the game was looking to load Frosty.
LikeLiked by 2 people
Grimes. Many thanks for the quick reply. It is my error entirely. I hadn’t noticed that Spring had been updated to 3.4. I had 3.3. All is well now.
BTW You might want to check your donation situation. I tried clicking on one of your links and tried using the button but PayPal threw up errors both times and said to try later. I’ll try again in a day or so. Thanks for great Mods.

The house_03_sc.pmd issue will be fixed in the next update. I have seen the parked cars error but I think this might be a map issue, either with the default map or another map pointing to a model that no longer exists, I’ll check it out next time I see it. The mat file error I have not seen even though I have been spending the last few weeks updating this mod, so I’m not sure it’s anything to do with this mod unless you can identify the related model.
Thanks for reporting Zuputo.
