Wow, the notification arrived and I thought FINALLY but it wasn't this time haha but it's getting really good😲

凌羽

Thank you for your efforts! I am very grateful. (There may be some issues with using machine translation, please forgive me, if i 'm not polite, i'm so sorry) May I ask if it will be released within the next two days?

Hatem

How about the performance?

Obifly

ok you gotta tell us if this is gon be released or not. no more teasing videos.

JR speed3

With this reshade will not longer be needed?

Chillander

Dude, this is the 50th video. It's starting to get annoying. If you're going to post it, post it, if not, don't post it.

Ualas Matos

Tá ficando muito top, parabéns

Abdulla Shaikh

This should work for 1.55 update for ets2 🙏🙏

NiamhFox

Some of you guys are not fair, he's putting a lot of time effort and dedication into this mod, you should be grateful. Thank you Snowy looks beautiful.

Urban Zoom

The boy that cried wolf

Denis PoT

Would you be able to let $1+ patrons download the current version a bit earlier? We're really happy to support you, and we can't wait to try out your work — it looks amazing! Even if there are some bugs, we totally understand. We just really want to get our hands on it as soon as possible.

Amigo65

"Last" , realy? Be serious please!

RunnyPilot

Yo, don't be rude. While I do understand the frustration, nobody has the right to demand something from someone, ever. The guy can post however he pleases. If you don't like it, you can either ignore or turn off your notifications.

RunnyPilot

It'll come when it's ready. As he says in every preview, it will be released soon.

Chillander

I'm not being rude; if he wanted to, he wouldn't have released the graphics mode at all. But constantly posting things like "this is the end," "coming soon," and "almost ready" is nothing more than deceiving people. If the graphics mode is being said to be released, then so be it. If it's still being developed, he could just say, "I'm still developing it; it needs time." There's no need for constant "final" and "very close" talk.

DPoint

Bro saying like 10th time released soon

Bruno Castro

you intend to implement fsr in the plugin for those who have amd card.

Arrêtez de bloquer

A lot of lightings are missing using amd rx 6600 (headlights, truck interior..)

Pope

Dude it's not the end of the world. I'm sure this will get released whenever SM's plugin meets or exceeds his expectations. It does look amazing, patience is a virtue.

Fabio Contier

The more details the better. Perfect, bro. I can't wait.

Pope

You are being extremely rude. Throwing a hissy fit simply because you can't get something when you want it, that's child's play. Why don't you go ask SCS why haven't they gotten off their asses to enhance game visuals in 9+ years and why have they allowed themselves to be outdone by a one-man army when they employ over 300+ coders as well as modders. No one here is being deceived. If you or anyone else feels as if they are being deceived simply keep your funky little dollar until it is released, that's if you're even a paid subscriber to begin with. SM stated awhile back to unsubscribe(your choice) until this plugin gets released.

LuneBat

It would be a game changer, the concrete roads are very bright for me in VR. With balanced lighting coming with this mod, I hope a lot more things can be improved, and not just overexposure of concrete

mauricio d cardoso

numa das versao anterior e possivel ver goticulas de chuva no asfalto em poça dagua vc pretende trazer isso p nova versao?

Legion PlayZ

atp bros just trolling 😭 he never gonna release this

nice guyy

ay bro first of all hes doing it most likely allon it seems and bro when it comes out its free and you are behaving like a kid just wait and let him take his time

Multistellar Games

Hello Snowy, I have been following your excellent work for quite some time now. I understand that things have been busy, leaving you with little time to respond to everyone, but I will leave my question here anyway. Will that advanced 2D cloud system (I forgot the name) still be a reality? Or will you stick with Skyboxes? Congratulations on your dedication, and thank you for spending so much time providing us with a more immersive experience!

fufufah

He once mentioned that volumetric clouds don't look that much better – mostly because they're far away or we're usually focused on the road – but they do eat up a lot of resources. That said, I'd love to see it become a reality someday too. : )

leandro

ta ficamdo mas gostoso de jogar o ets2 com esse plugin

Multistellar Games

Yes, he had mentioned volumetric clouds (3D), but said he was thinking of an improved cloud system (2D) that is better than Skybox and more performative than Volumetric

mahmoud alshayb

Hello Snowy moon thank you for all the efforts you provide to us and make us happy. I have some questions and I hope you can answer them if possible. The mod only works with 1.53. Does this mean that those who have 1.55 have to go back to version 1.53 for the mod to work? Secondly, if we do everything after installation, if it does not work, what is the problem? Also, does the mod only work with DirectX 11, and what is the solution? If I have 12, do I have to do a system restore or what is the solution? Thank you in advance.

Ulf Bjarke

Don't worry. The lighting system v2 is developed for 1.55. It's impossible to determine a cause before any failure has occurred. Do you run ETS2 under DX12??? ETS normally uses DX 11 and you should have no problem using DX11 with ETS2, which is default.

PixelQubed

This looks lovely! Can't wait to get my hands on it for my game.

mahmoud alshayb

thank you bro to help ,yes i play in direct x 12 no problems because i installed ts se tool working good that installed all version dx in pc iwaiting for the new virsion and i will see🫡

Leandre09

You can't play ets2 with Directx12, you probably installed support files for ts se tool but ETS2 only uses DirectX11

Pope

Anybody else received email notification that v10.2.23 released 7/30/2025 around 9:20pm est. or was this some sort of joke 🤔

Urban Zoom

Dont worry kid, i'm sure there'll be another teaser video next week

Pope

Kid, thanks for the kind words lol.

Rob Bowden

It was for ETS/ATS TAA motion blur for interior cam nothing more

Pope

Whenever it meets or exceeds his expectations if I had to guess.

Pope

Fair enough.

Pope

TS SE tool, as in the Save Editor?

Astropalm

unsubbing, enough of this clown show.

davv

never seen someone more impatient than you.

Nom

no would ever care if u unsub.

Cristian Parra

La Version 2.0.2 me está funcionando correctamente con mi tarjeta Nvidia Geforce 1650 y 32 gb de ram, es muy importante entender que por ahora deben poner el escalado en 100% para no tener una excesiva perdida de fps ya que al activar el plugins Snowy Moon se cambian automáticamente las configuraciones de tu juego. Al usarlo con el mod gráfico PNG era demasiado malo el rendimiento, por ahora estoy utilizando Weather_3.3_2K y sus extras y al menos ahí me rinde mucho mejor.

slavik_ proff

Can i use optiscaler with this modification "Lighting V2" to generate frames

Zach Attack94

why does the interior turn black when using this?? im confused i dont use reshade

yepn

u can use upscaler but no frame gen because the game is on dx11, use lossless scalling or afmf if u have amd gpu

Patrick Raes

Hi guys first off all this is a game changer allot of work into this , just wondering how tot activate the setting menu in the top left corner cant seem to find that

Kk K

I followed the installation method, but when I press the "END" key in the game, "Connection error" is displayed. What is the reason? "

What is going on with the Road textures in 2.0.11 ? They look very low res. Not all but some of Them.

Paweł Ślusarczyk

I installed the mod but pressing end nor ctrl + p does nothing? It also doesn't seem like the mod is doing anything as is, the graphics look the same as before.

Raoul Emil

Are you using ets 2 1.55?

This guy brought DLSS into ETS i don't care if this overhual is a scam or not the dlss mod is amazing

Title: Issue with Checkpoint Saves & Quick Load being ignored Message: Hello, I’m having an issue with the plugin since v2.0.14 and still in v2.0.15. When I use Quick Save (F5) in ETS2, the plugin seems to ignore my Quick Saves. Instead, it forces a Checkpoint Save and when I try to load, it doesn’t load my Quick Save properly. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start ETS2 with SnowyMoon v2.0.15. 2. Make a Quick Save. 3. Try to load it. 4. The plugin overrides it with a Checkpoint and Quick Load doesn’t work as expected. This makes it very difficult to test or recover from mistakes, because the Quick Save system is essential for gameplay. Could you please check if the injector or the checkpoint feature is interfering with the native Quick Save/Load system? Thank you for the amazing work, I really enjoy SnowyMoon and hope this issue can be fixed in a future update.

Good afternoon, I simply opened the game today, and it doesn't want to open, yesterday I played normally, I removed the snowy plug and the game opens normally, and just put it in and the game doesn't open, does anyone know why?

Yes, as I mentioned in the first post, it was 2D system that i'm talking about, but the friend confused it with the volumetric system, so I decided to make it clear that it was a different system.

Vikvote Gamingbusiness

I need a help when l add snowy moon mods I can’t see people names on top of their trucks on ets2 convoy

Snowy Moon

Its fixed with v2.0.21 and newer versions, are you using older version?

Vikvote Gamingbusiness

Snowy Moon

Just open the menu and check title, probably you are on v2.0.17

Gamer Brasil

08/30/2025 - v2.0.20 why did I remove this version? For me it was great. Please put it back up.
