Snow-Andreas v5.0 - Winter mod for weak PCs

The mod covers the entire game map with snow. Unlike the project of the same name Snow San Andreas 2011 or Winter Vacation , this mod is not demanding on hardware and is well suited for weak PCs and playing SAMP. There is nothing superfluous here, and you can easily install new mods, use this mod as the basis for a winter build, or go through the story with it in a single player game.

Snow-Andreas v5.0 is positioned as a universal winter mod and can be used in both single player and multiplayer, so there is no new story, replaced cars or other mods. Only snow. You can install everything else yourself, or play on a “clean” game.

The development of Snow-Andreas began back in 2007 and was a hodgepodge of modifications from the authors of that time. This included not only snow textures, but also other eye-catching retextures of various buildings, signs, and billboards. The goal of the new version is to completely improve the mod, giving it a second life in 2019.

Changes in 5.0:
* Lands in rural areas have been redrawn, now green grass is not visible at long distances;
* KFC, McDonald's and pizzerias were replaced with original brands from GTA SA, retextures of several interiors were removed;
* SnowFX updated to version 4.0

Full list of changes compared to the 2011 original:

* Mip levels have been added to all textures, now there will be no “black roads” bug on low graphics settings, and the textures themselves now look more solid.
* The modpack and about a hundred other retextures have been completely removed. Now only snow textures.
* Winter weather.
* Snow tires on all cars.
* Driving became difficult due to ice.
* Easter eggs from the original mod were partially preserved and new ones were added.
* SnowFX now has an INI file in which you can configure snowfall control keys.
* The game will not crash if SnowFX is not installed correctly.
