Better Flares v4.7.1 Beta 1.60 is a mod for American Truck Simulator that enhances flares and vehicle lighting for a more realistic look at night and in low-visibility conditions.
• Version: v4.7.1 Beta 1.60 (compatible with ATS 1.60)
• Completely reworked flare effects
• Realistic headlight patterns with 3 different colors
• Supports up to 50 modded trucks so more vehicles can use the improved lighting setup
• Improved tail lights and brake lights textures
• Updated SCS AI traffic lighting with 9 headlight color variants
• Traffic Addon includes 2 red/brake signal variations
The update also targets ambient city atmosphere by adjusting how street lighting and nearby illumination behaves through the added City Lights module. Together with the flare rewrite, this makes nighttime driving feel more consistent across different lighting scenarios.
• City Lights (included in the archive as 4.6.2 and 4.6)
• Dimmed street lamps for a natural urban glow
• Fixes for Roof and Front aux lights not working properly
• Small bugfixes for Base and Headlights Addons
Important: the Traffic Addon requires the Sound Fixes Pack; otherwise traffic may not spawn correctly. This version is built specifically for ATS 1.60 to ensure smooth compatibility with the game’s lighting and AI traffic systems.
