Koln Aachen Tod 4 Remaster Discussion

I tried that mod and loaded up Brighton Mainline, London Victoria station had crazy lighting. Deleted mod.

 

Indeed, I explained in the previous post that the MOD makes RSN enjoyable.
There are some trade-offs.
However, when used, for example on Bakerloo, this MOD is undoubtedly harmful.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth...

 

I don't think the mod includes Bakerloo anyway.

It's great on some routes, ECW for example where it will soon be defunct. And I'm grateful it exists.

It makes you realise how great London Commuter would look, especially the very dark cuttings, however Victoria appears to be in the middle of a power cut but the mod was never going to fix that.

 

TOD3 is to dark, the tinted window effect makes everything even more dark from in cab, the outside camera is more balanced. The downside of TOD4 is the fact everything is much more highlighted, this makes the shadow pop-in more visible but also scenery can look less real because of it. Also colors can look over saturated which makes it look less realistic.

So the ideal lighting is most likely something in between TOD3 and TOD4, the more natural look of TOD3 with some more bright sunlight from TOD4.
