Installation Instructions
Older Releases

Additional Comments
If you have an issue where the shadows in the cab look worse, try increasing the shadow resolution in your engine.ini, this will increase VRAM usage.
minimum (to not have the issue): r.Shadow.MaxCSMResolution=5120
recommended: r.Shadow.MaxCSMResolution=8192
You also have the option of lowering the shadow distance (or a combination with the settings above):
r.Shadow.DistanceScale=(less than 1)
Using GodMode you can adjust these route by route if needed.
