Ive done Michigan at least 6 times now. Never have i ever been this prepared for a base game map. Now featuring actual service trucks instead of just one P12 with a large maintenance rig. Would have been simpler, but hey, Its Snowrunner. You get out what you put in.
So, i started a new save. Couple of trucks ported over, RWD and fairly vanilla. Ive been in a rut and they inspired me to get up to some shenanigans. Named Allterrains instead of UOD IIIs just to mix it up a bit. Whats Snowrunner without a little bit of fabricated struggle?
Usually i save logs for the very very last of michigan, havent even left the first map yet, why not give it a go? The slow pace, relatively mundane nature of the trucks, logging... kind of fills that mudrunner shaped hole in the heart.
Also the TH357 is really underrated as a general purpose yard truck. Good on fuel, apparently can pull a combined... we'll say 50 tons of truck and trailer sunk to its axles out of the mud, plus it fits the motif of "heavy equipment being used for a push or pull". Yknow if a truck gets stuck on a farm, you yank it out with a tractor. If your truck gets stuck on a muddy job site, you grab the telehandler or excavator or bulldozer. Its a good Motif.
Also yes i started a new save for the... seventh time now? At least time i made it a separate save lmao
Dont you earthroamer me. F750 doesnt really count either.
So you know how when you swap trucks out in the field, your headlights and beacons automatically dim themselves/turn themselves off? Has anyone ever found a way around this or made a mod to change this?
I recently started a new save after months and decided "You know what, lets make night time even darker" with a Reshade. Night time recoveries are extra difficult if theres no ambient lighting around. IRL you'd probably run whatever lights on the truck you're recovering if possible (read: me getting a truck stuck with a semi trailer and its 2am ingame), but snowrunner has never let you do this. It'd also make some night time screenshots/photos looks better.
But yeah. Anyone ever figure out a way around this?
So i've been playing TXRD2 on PCSX2 (cant be bothered to hook up the PS2 lol), and one thing thats always bugged me is how headlights dont work properly, and its apparently been a long standing issue with it. Just wondering if anyone has figured out how to get them to display properly.
I turn up the brightness to compensate so its playable (albeit eye searing as soon as you go back into the main menu) but as you can see, no headlights.
If you turn the headlights on and off, the briefly flicker as they shut off, so they are there, just clipping i guess.
There are portions of the various roads where they do show briefly, that little slice of light by the passenger side mirror.
For reference, im using Vulkan, and ive tried openGL, both were suggested as the "Fix" a number of times in the past.
Settings if perhaps i just have something set incorrectly
Ditto. Im not the best when it comes to technical stuff on emulation, so im hoping i just have something set wildly incorrect for the headlights to display correctly. Any help would be much appreciated.
Older build (1.7 is listed as the correct build according to numerous places ive looked that 'fixes' this issue) for use with a couple of other games.
Also FWD NA Alfa is an underrated career car. Love it to bits, dont judge me.
Its both amazing that spec II put this in here only once every 100 days, but also kind of sad to see. Its got some miles, it was definitely used. Who just dumps an F1 car on a used lot D:
