Hello everyone,

I have made a minor map that rebuilds some of SCS' and ProMods' roads in Latvia.

Here are some screenshots:

Also, here is an amazing preview video by YouTube user Milan:


As far as I know there should be no conflicts with maps that are compatible with ProMods. I personally tested it with Southern Region, RusMap and Great steppe, so I think you would see no issues there. Any inconsistencies can be reported to me :).

The prefered load order is detailed on this ProMods thread here: viewtopic.php?t=29618. Here, my map should be posted in the "(Other add-on map mods)" space in no particular oder, I guess, as my mod does not have any major edits other than map sector changes.

Keep in mind that the first load of the mod may take some time, as cache needs to be rebuilt. The other load times should be way shorter.

I would appreciate comments on improvement/bugs or other things I should add.

I'd like to give you a tip. Try to experiment with brushes. Your forest and grassy areas will look much better if you use greater variety of different grass types/colors.
I like trucking, I like Europe, so that's why I love ProMods!

I already used some brushes for the more corniferous parts, but sure, I'll add some on the grassier areas

Ok, so now I have updated the mod to have some minor improvements concerning terrain, bugs, high-poly roads ect. The download link for the new version (v. beta 02) is included in the original post. Please comment on it and mention where I've done something wrong, other potential improvements or suggestions!

Does this MOD work correctly with Rusmap?

Hey,

After much work and learning, I have updated the mod, with the changelog available at the first post of this page.

Here are the results in form of some screenshots:

I will still be keeping post in this forum section, as it is still a work in progress, and to make it official, I want to be certain that there are minimal bugs and inconsitencies. Therefore, I want the people who try it out to submit any bugs or potential improvements.

If you have any suggestions for what I should build, feel free to comment.

When ProMods 2.50 will come out, I will be sure to update the mod to 1.38.

All that aside, I hope you enjoy this update!

(PS. To the people who are taking this mod and reuploading it to different mod websites: please do it better and at least try to make a description that is better)
