Hi, I don't know if it's the right place to share, but I juste made a little mod (my first one !!), for those who like to watch the beautiful landscapes while driving and who can't see anything at night, or those who lag at night.
In this mod, the sun never sets down, the night is frozen into an eternal sunset/sunrise, as it normally does above the polar circle (Iceland for example), making the night much clearly visible and brighter, also beautiful with the colourful sunset.
The day is normally lightened.

It should be compatible with any maps and any other weather mod.
Works with 1.37 and above
This mod is inspired by an old one made by piva

Have a good day/night and drive safe !

Nice idea! I too prefer seeing the scenery. Most enjoyable part of the game IMHO.

Does it only affect places above the arctic circle or does it affect the whole map?

This mod instantly became part of my "mandatory" list. It made my driving so much more enjoyable. Night driving might be realistic. But boring and sleepy, as you can't see anything anyway. And it still works in 1.41! Plus this mod seems to stretch out the sunsets and sunrises making them much more enjoyable as well.

I have yet to test this in ATS though. Trying it now.....

TIP: You might want to consider re-releasing it, and putting it in the Steam Workshop. As it is very hard to find, and not too many people know about it. (I would be you first groupie, LOL) I would state in the description: Are you bored of night driving? Are you a scenery lover, or a screenshot fanatic, or just plain enjoy driving during daylight? Then this is for you!

+1 on the Steam Workshop idea. Also I think you should do an ATS one and a night mode one. Cheers!

Very nice mod. I am not good driving at night so this is ideal for me, and it works on v1.41, thank you.

Just update I did test this in ATS and it doesn't work. You get the familiar red background with the words Texture Missing all over the sky. But you only see this during the sunsets and sunrises. So I guess the sky map files in ETS2 are named differently than the ones in ATS. So it can't find them.

No... it doesn't work on ETS2 1.41. I'm testing it without any other mods, and using full DLC. Still dark as hell.

Is this JourPolaire or something else? Because I put JourPolaire back in my mod list today and it still works in v1.45 for me. I have all DLC , a lot of other mods including Promods (of course) and it's still works.
