Canceling Projects, Focusing on ETS2/ATS

After careful consideration, I've decided to streamline my work and focus exclusively on Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator.

All ongoing projects for other games, including BeamNG.drive, Assetto Corsa, GTA V, iRacing, Farming Simulator 25, and OMSI 2 are officially canceled.

Instead of spreading my efforts across multiple titles, I’ve chosen to dedicate 100% of my time and energy to ETS2 and ATS with the goal of achieving the highest possible quality.

Here’s what you can expect moving forward:

  • A complete remake of Lighting Improvements v2.

  • New, high-quality projects for ETS2/ATS.

  • Custom maps.

Please note: If I make custom maps it will require to purchase latest/previous latest map DLC available for the game to play on custom maps.

SCS has done an incredible job with both games and continues to deliver updates, my work is meant to complement and enhance their foundation, not replace it.

Thank you all for your continued support and understanding during this transition <3

Snowynoon is the king of ETS2, there's no better graphics mod than it. It's very successful in Patero, and the mods for BeamNG have amazing graphics, it's high quality, easy to install, everything is easy, and everyone uses Snowynoon. It's very useful in ETS2, it's very safe, just like the real thing.

Hello snowy moon, I wanted to know if you could update Temporal Anti-Aliasing to version 1.59 ats/ets, as I can't afford the paid version. I look forward to your reply, friend!

Hello, I bought a year-round tint yesterday, but I'm having a problem: there's a dark film on it, and I can't get it to lighten no matter what I do. I've already tried all the instructions, but nothing has worked. My email address is gresstizian98@gmail.com. I hope to get a quick response.

Hi Snowy Moon, I am a fan of your work in Assetto Corsa. I know you focusing on ETS2 and ATS, but by any chance is it feasible to make one last version of the DLL for AC compatible with the CSP >= 0.3.x before terminating support for AC? A very last release... ;) it would make thousands of people happy (and willing to renew the membership).

It's a shame work on OMSI 2 has been stopped. It was a great simulator that needed some optimization. You were our last hope.

I wish you would update Snowymoon V1 1.57; at the very least, I wish the V1 free version had an on/off toggle for features like offline and online. I am a dedicated modder who follows you closely, and I liked your mod. V1 feels closer to me, specifically the one with the SSR reflection. I wish you would update V1 1.57 at least, as that is the only free version I have.

Snowymoon Lighting v2 cannot summon the menu page after installation. How to solve it? NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti graphics card. The issue persists even after following the provided installation and troubleshooting steps.

D
Daren Carter · December 21, 2025

Maybe can we make day to night a bit better as it looks kind of weird the light stepping down like it does and i have a 5080 with 7800x3d and 64gb ram but if i use 200 scaling the quality is stuttering - i can only use 150 scaling and maybe improve the lamp post shimmering in the future - apart from that loving the mod

It’s better to concentrate on one or two than a dozen and spread ya self thin. Question can this work on Linux. I understand that Linux is different and probably not on your radar but from little info I found it can be done if ran via proton I think it’s called. Now if that was true it’s one step closer away from windows junk.

Have only just resently discovered this mod and when i saw the headline i was scared but now happy as ETS2 & ATS are the games I want to use this on. I truck ONLY in VR and when i get the chance try out on a FREE Sunday (fingers crossed it’s a smooth easy installation) I will be subscribing after my first jobs in ETS2 & ATS. Happy New Year to you Snowymoon and hope the future is as bright as I think it will be.

This is a well-focused and carefully considered decision. Concentrating all your time and creative effort exclusively on ETS2 and ATS is expected to result in a meaningful improvement in the quality and consistency of your projects. The remake of Lighting Improvements v2, along with the new projects and custom maps, clearly demonstrates your commitment to delivering high-quality content. Wishing you every success in this new direction and continued progress with your work.

BartMan Trucker · December 10, 2025

What wonderful news, Snowymoon — you truly are the best! What you’ve accomplished with ETS2 has gone far beyond anything I expected. After purchasing your product, it honestly felt like I was experiencing the game for the very first time again. The atmosphere, the details, the overall transformation… everything came together so beautifully that it completely renewed my excitement for the game. Your dedication and hard work really shine through in every aspect of the mod. It’s clear how much passion you’ve poured into it, and it makes the experience feel fresh, immersive, and incredibly enjoyable. I’m genuinely impressed and grateful for the quality you deliver. I’m already looking forward to your next update — I can’t wait to see what amazing improvements and surprises you bring us next! THANK U!

marc · December 10, 2025

I think it's a wise decision... I felt you were going off in all directions. While respecting your work and choices, there will be some disappointed people, but your contribution to ETS2 and ATS is so important; the other programs already have more advanced technologies. Thanks again for your work.

Bluewarriorsheart · December 10, 2025

After noticing that you got a little overwhelmed by your work for the ETS/ATS Lightning Improvements alone (my personal impression at least), I think it's a really good idea to focus your energy on one task...had to make a similar decision myself recently and it feels much better ;)

Mak · December 10, 2025

Are you still planning to add volumetric clouds and new vegetation?

S
Snowy Moon · December 10, 2025

I don't like the idea of volumetric clouds because of performance impact and lower quality visuals compared to other methods. For vegetation I am not sure yet, I might make custom maps or change vegetation for current maps. The issue is everything should change not only vegetation to get best result

P
Paradox-Chimera · December 10, 2025

I’m really glad to hear you’ve decided to focus on ETS2 and ATS. It’s hard to deliver excellence across too many projects, and narrowing the scope will only help you create something truly outstanding. It feels like the right move, and I’m excited to see what you’ll bring to these games in the years ahead. Keep up the great work.

Could you make a mod that enables you to look around in VR with camera mode 0, the walk around camera, that would be so nice! Another wish is to have more overcast weather without rain.

It's a shame I won't see graphical improvements for Farming Simulator 25. I was hoping for it. Perhaps you'll consider supporting this game someday? Either way, you made a good choice. It's better to focus on one title than to work on 7 titles piece by piece.

Snowy Moon · December 10, 2025

B
Bawdy Bard · December 10, 2025

I think this is a very sensible and wise decision. And i am honestly thankful to hear this news. Because, for anybody at all that ends up spreading themselves too thinly, it will ultimately only usually result in a terrible ongoing headache trying to keep track of all the various different projects. Plus on top of that there is genuine merit and truth in the age old saying... "Quality over quantity." Furthermore, due to SCS's utterly pitiful antialiasing implementation etc when compared to all other game studios, these two games are the ones that absolutely most vastly benefit from your efforts. Which in turn means that for so many of us, it is an absolutely essential tool and addition, so as for us to be able to play these two particular games with any proper level of immersion and enjoyment.

S
Suppi · December 9, 2025

Hi Snowy, this is the right decission. Your mod is so essential to ETS/ATS that I'm afraid that if something happens to you or you lose interest in the project, it won't be possible to continue without you. Is there any chance you could bring someone in to back you up, or better yet, start working at SCS and show them how it's done? ;)

Hey SnowyMoon, Thank you for the clear update and for all the dedication you’ve shown. Focusing entirely on ETS2 and ATS is a great decision, and I fully support your choice. Quality always comes from concentrated effort, and you’ve already proven what you can achieve when you put your mind to something. I’m really excited for the complete Lighting Improvements v2 rework, the new high-quality projects, and the custom maps you’re planning. Whatever you create, I know it will push the games forward and make the experience even better for all of us. Thanks for your hard work, passion, and transparency. We’re with you all the way—keep going, you’ve got this. ❤️🔥🔥🔥
