Euro Truck Simulator 2 Realistic sounds rain, water and thunder v10.4

Realistic Rain & Thunder is a comprehensive weather overhaul mod for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, created by author Kass. Released for game version 1.59.x, this mod transforms rainy weather into a highly immersive experience by reworking visuals, audio, and environmental effects. Every drop, gust of wind, and thunderclap feels authentic, whether you are driving through a light drizzle or a heavy storm.

The latest version of the mod introduces more than 40 unique thunder sounds, each carefully recorded and implemented to behave differently depending on distance and whether you are inside or outside the truck cabin. Raindrops now fall naturally on the windshield, creating realistic streaks and water flow that react to your speed and wiper action. Rain intensity smoothly transitions from light showers to downpours, while fog density and particle effects (splashes, spray from tires) add to the atmosphere. Water bodies – seas, rivers, lakes, and beaches – also receive a visual upgrade with more realistic reflections and surface behavior.

• Realistic rain – improved textures, particles, and dynamic intensity (light to heavy)

• Windshield effects – raindrops, streaks, splashes, and water flow

• Over 40 thunder sounds – separate audio for cabin interior and exterior

• Enhanced fog – natural density and dynamic behavior

• Realistic water – seas, rivers, lakes, beaches with improved visuals

• Changed storm parameters – more authentic storm patterns

• Rain splashes and spray – particles from tires and ground impact
