What this mod does
Colorful ambient lights (彩虹劈叉分八瓣) is a mod by 曲亓饼干 that adds colored ambient lights to the game’s trucks, in the style of the ambient lighting many show trucks have. It’s by the same author as the illuminated logos mod that already has a page on Holymod.
Colors and positions
- Eight colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple and pink.
- They go on the lower part of the bumper or bull bar, on the front corner deflectors and in the front wheel arches.
