There isn’t much news in yet. It only happened 2 days ago and it’s been dumping snow ever since. There’s really no way of knowing what to expect. Just gotta get out there and help where I can….

Meteor: Crater
The meteorite impact known as the Great Taymyr Impact destroyed one area of the Taymyr Peninsula in the early 19th century. The mysterious, radioactive meteorite has been lying in the soft soil of Taymyr ever since. Efforts by the Soviet military to find and lift it in the early 60s failed. Not much has changed in the area since then, only the nature has conquered the area – until now!
Help the Taiga Oil Company to develop the crater, build the meteor base and explore the many secrets and tasks around the crater! Collect samples, find more craters, expand the infrastructure and help the local people and companies in the area with their tasks.
Meteor: Port
A challenging coastal region awaits you on the second map. Help Trans Taymyr rebuild the old harbour on the former military site, build a new factory and help renew the huge radar on the mountain.
There are also some heavy loads to be moved in the impassable terrain and the old abandoned facilities hold some dangerous surprises to be explored.
To make your work easier you can build another garage, fuel stations, roads and bridges – if you can get enough material for these tasks.
Importand note for all who have played Meteor before:
You cannot continue to use your old safegame. This is very unfortunate but sadly there is no other way. Regions were not supported when I released Meteor and single map mods can’t be converted to multi map mods. However, you don’t have to play the missions again if you don’t want to. The new map Port can be played almost independently of Crater! After the first mission you are free to move on to the new map.
Features/Details:
total size of 7km²
Crater: 2000m x 2000m + Port: 2000m x 1500m
Russian region with correct shop
2x Garage
various places to discover
21 + 21 missions to discover
33 + 23 company contract missions
1 + 1 time challenges
three main quests with full story line
>25h game time
custom sounds

various additional vehicles and trailers to find
terrain made with ESA Digital Elevation Model datasets
full translations for: English, German, Russian, Czech language
Bonus:
If you are one of those players for whom the game can’t be hard enough or if you like particularly immersive simulation, then I have a bonus for you.
The road maps you can see in the preview pictures are high res ( 4032×4032) and can be downloaded (see links below, you’ll stay on mod.io) and used for navigation instead of the ingame map – either printed or on a second screen.

C.C.M. Is very proud to present “Bertha” the LARC, LARC’s are amphibious vehicles originally used in the military. this particular LARC was salvaged for scrap at one point in its life and just barely missed the cutting torches. But the owner of the yard saw something in this rotting hulk of steel and decided to keep it for himself.
After many of years the time finally came for “Bertha” to get her second lease on life. The owner heard of the restoration done on the DUKW by the shop and thought “its almost the same thing”… So she was packaged and shipped to a marina close to the C.C.M. custom shop And the resurrection began. after 3 long years and many failed attempts at making “Bertha” float again, The boys had her finished, but the owner had tragically died in a freak explosion caused by combining personal lubricant and a spray-on deodorant so she had nowhere to go and now is the property of Co-Core Motors where she mostly gets rented out to anyone willing to operate her
So you want to run a LARC? ok…well heres to rundown. its huge. it weighs a literal 100 tons. it does not go fast and when it does it gets damage. just like with the DUKW low gears in the water is the way to go. anything above low will just spin the tires and when in the water the object is to spin them the least amount you can so even if you have to let off the throttle to achieve that, it works!.
Be Aware of what you’re trying to maneuver in. really strong currents aren’t a great idea. Big embankments into and out of water again. not a great idea..
It is To Big to fit out of most garage yards. so be aware of that when trying to use it. it may not be the best base game choice.
well that’s about it i guess try not to sink it.
Huge thank you to everyone and anyone thats helped me out with this stuff. without you all id be way back still.
KNOWN BUGS.. ramp does not go all the way down when its going to land on either ice chunks or soft mud.. hard ground and pavement it works great but the other two it will just hover for some reason unbeknownst to me.
Model Is scratch built by me. the only thing that isnt is the rim it uses. that was a free tractor tire rim off cgtrader.
As with all my mods. do not under any circumstances. take and reupload anything ive built. private is one thing. but public is another.. if interested in using anything ive created i.
e. tires rollbars. etc etc.. just ask worst i can say is no
will this come to console??? Hell If I Know?? just gotta wait and see i suppose.

In the pack, 2 cars, 3x bridge and 2x bridge, have 5 engines the first 3 by default, the next two are more powerful, the same with gearboxes and winches, I tried so that each player could choose for themselves a comfortable and pleasant driving. on the wheels of the default registration, the standard ones are a little higher, they have their own adonns, so far I will add a little more later

When it comes to off-road trucking simulators, Spintires is up there on everyone’s list.
While the original game was taken over by a much larger developer (resulting in the release of the updated Mudrunner title), many fans still believe the original to be the better version.
Like with any game backed by a passionate community, there are loads of ways to make the game even more interesting. Here are some of the best mods I’ve come across that are definitely worth trying.
Check Out This Mod
Though Spintires isn’t by any means a bad-looking game, more than a few years have passed since the game was launched.
And there are a number of ways to get the game to look less dated by now.
The first being with this Reshade + SweetFX pack.
This mod actually combines two of the best graphics mods for the game, giving you a Reshade template for more vivid and realistic colors, along with a SweetFX preset for more realistic processing effects.
Very sweet indeed.
0Check Out This Mod
If you wanted to take visuals even further, check out this Realism HD mod by DevilBass.
Beyond reshading and post-processing effects, DevilBass actually puts in the work to replace most of the game’s textures to give it a complete visual upgrade.
The mod covers everything including ground, water, sky, sunlight, and smoke effects, along with completely reworked textures for vehicles.
That’s not even all here! The mod even includes new ambient sounds and added steering animations to boot.

Vehicles and terrain aren’t the only things getting makeovers, and this next add-on will be particularly appealing to all the Spintires loggers out there.
When you’re so focused on getting those logs to and from the pickup and drop off points, what the logs look like becomes less of a priority.
This is especially true in Spintires, as the game doesn’t exactly make transporting logs an easy task.
That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try to make the logs look better if we can, right?
This particular mod gives the logs a mossy makeover, adding just a bit more color to the game.
There are other options for log textures as well, so it would be best to pick and choose which you prefer.
Check Out This Mod
It isn’t uncommon for Spintires fans to enjoy the game for the realistic driving experience… in which case most would prefer to play with steering wheel controllers rather than a typical console controller or a keyboard and mouse.
If you fit into that category, then you most likely prefer to drive in 1st person as well.
And if that’s the case, this next mod is for you.
The Dashboard Texture Package replaces vehicle dashboard textures for more added detail, allowing you to jack up the realism and immersion from simply driving your truck around.

While having to grind your way towards getting access to all the unlockables in a game is certainly much better than the recent microtransaction trend, some people just prefer to get right to it.
After all, nowadays it’s all about giving players more choices. And you don’t really have much of a choice if most of the content is locked at the beginning of your playthrough.
Some may consider this next mod a bit of a cheat, but if you have no problem jumping to the finish line, then go ahead and grab it.
Not only does it make all locked content available from the beginning, but what’s even better is that it removes regional restrictions as well.
This basically means you’ll always have access to all equipment and at all locations, so you can pick and choose which vehicles and attachments you want to use no matter what map you’re playing.
Check Out This Mod
One thing that hasn’t changed between Spintires and Mudrunner is the importance of maps to the modding community.
Custom maps are pretty much a win-win for everyone, as it not only gives modders a creative outlet to build something completely to their liking, but it gives players an easy way to keep things interesting in the game as well.
Last Hope is particularly interesting because of its scenario.
The town you find yourself in needs bridges. In order to build those bridges, resources will need to be gathered to construct them.
I’m sure you can put together the rest, but it’s a lotta fun.
Check Out This Mod
Next Map (yes, that’s what the map is actually called) is another interesting map add-on, as it also comes with a unique backstory.
Your name is Pavel, an experienced professional driver. You’ve been sent here to transport logs from the felling site to the storage areas around the forest before the onset of autumn.
Even before jumping in, though, you’re already warned that the roads are tough. And you’ll need to be extra careful to get the job done.
This map contains 1 closed garage, 1 gas station, 1 felling site, 2 loading points, 4 sawmills, and 1 car to start with. Lots of good stuff here, my friends.
Check Out This Mod
Now this next one doesn’t really go much into detail… except that you find yourself in an abandoned town with plenty of trees left for the lumberjacks.
You just got your old ZIL-131 working again, but in the garage are some more vehicles that were left behind by the townspeople – which of course need repairs.
That’s pretty much all you have to go on.
But what really caught my attention here is the photo.
The modder only provides one photo, which is of a ZIL-131 falling into a river from a broken bridge.
Now I’m not sure about you, but that definitely makes me want to give this map a go.
Check Out This Mod
Drunken Movers takes the opposite approach, as it has the most detailed backstory among the maps we’ve covered so far.
You were initially tasked with transporting spare vehicle parts, which weren’t properly secured in your truck, causing you to lose everything along the way. Bummer.
What’s makes this even worse is that you weren’t even sober for your trip (rock on, brother) and were just lucky to have avoided the cops.
Well, that can only mean one thing – you’re going to have to go back and find all those parts you lost.
Hopefully sober this time.
Check Out This Mod
Now this last map (for this ranking, anyway) probably has the most confusing descriptions for any mod I’ve seen in my life.
Which of course, only made me all the more curious as to what it actually might be.
I mean, just give this ominous passage a read:
“Do not let the steel horse fly into the ditch.
Neither will have to re-start the plot.
Here you need to look at both,
Otherwise there will be a bean.”
The mystery has me itching to play this all the way through.
Either way, the map looks beautiful. So I wouldn’t be so quick to write this one off.
Check Out This Mod
Beyond maps and visuals, there’s the vehicle mods.
Given that the game we’re talking about is all about off-roading, you were probably waiting for me to get to some of the best modded vehicles for Spintires.
We’re here.
And that’s exactly why I’m allotting the remaining half of the list for them, starting with this Default Replacement pack from Sanek52.
We’re not really getting into anything custom just yet… but this mod replaces all the base game’s default textures to give them all visual upgrades.
If you’re using the default vehicles, why not make them look as good as they possibly can, right?
Check Out This Mod
Up next we have the first actual vehicle mod on the list: the 40oz Juggy by modders Skull, POWERED, and Stetson.
This lightweight vehicle is said to be setup as a bit of a crawler, bouncer, and mudder – which means you’re basically getting a great all-in-one vehicle in a tiny package.
Not to say that isn’t great. But I just thought I’d start you off with something a bit more general before we get into the crazier stuff here.
Check Out This Mod
After the 40oz Juggy, we’re diving head-first with the Tanks of Russia pack from eskander and Alexander.
The pack contains three of six different Russian tank models, and this was only uploaded a few months prior to this writing.
Which means that a second pack is likely already in the works.
Though the modders already warns that these are test cases and may not be bug-free as of this version, I still think it’s worth a try.
I mean, tanks in Spintires – who’s going to say no to that?
Check Out This Mod
Now here we have another Russian armored vehicle, this time in the form of the BTR-70 APC.
The saying “build like a tank” doesn’t even do this vehicle justice, as it even doubles as a submarine.
That’s right: you can get through some of the deepest rivers or lakes with no problem, as it can handle almost being completely submerged and still get you to the other side.
This isn’t just any ordinary BTR-70, either.
It’s skinned to look exactly the same as the ones seen in the S.
T.A.L.K.E.R. games.
Check Out This Mod
Who says Spintires has to always be about logging and trucking?
I’m sure it’s crossed your mind before – but what would it be like to run some of these routes with a race car?
Well now you can do exactly that, with the BMW M3 car mod.
We all know this thing can speed through racetracks since it has been used in rally competitions before. But how well do you think it would fare off-road? Give it a try and let me know.
Check Out This Mod
If the M3 isn’t enough to satisfy your need for speed, you might want to look into getting yourself this Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.
You guessed right, this is the exact make and model from the Fast and the Furious films.
Which means you’re going to get crazy amounts of power from this thing.
Drifting in Spintires? Now’s your chance.
Check Out This Mod
If you feel more like trading in speed and aesthetics for raw strength, look no further than the Caterpillar 8×8.
With the 8×8 build, you’re already pretty much set to tackle whatever terrain you’re faced with.
If you happen to find yourself in need of more traction, though, you do have the option to double the amount of tires – giving you a total of 16 tires on this beast.
Not only is this thing huge, but it has tons of useful attachments as well.
Among them are three different types of claws, which you can use to lift anything from dirt to other vehicles.
Check Out This Mod
If this isn’t your first time reading through one of my mod lists, you probably already know that I like to throw in a couple of wildcard entries every now and then. Y’know, just for fun.
These next two are exactly that: starting with this Rusty Wheelchair mod by 45Ninjas.
No kidding, the mod actually gives you a wheelchair that acts like a vehicle – complete with its own custom engine and horn sounds.
I’ll leave it to you to find a use for this one.
Check Out This Mod
If pushing yourself around on a wheelchair doesn’t sound appealing, then this next one might do the trick.
Thanks to modder Fabien, you can simply sit on your cart and have your very own horse pull you to wherever your destination might be.
I don’t know about you, but this seems to be the most effortless means of travel so far.
Check Out This Mod
I didn’t want to end with something quite as useless as a wheelchair (however funny that might be).
So instead I decided to save this beastly mod for last.
This Nissan GT-R mod actually transforms the sports car of your dreams into a giant monster truck. Seriously, check this thing out!
Just look at the wheels on this bad boy – I’m pretty sure they can get you through some of the harshest terrain the game has to offer.

6 Updated every hour Introduction What is the feature of the directional tread pattern? Advantages and disadvantages of How to properly install directional tires Conclusion
Updated every hour
rubber or not
When choosing good tires, you often face the problem of not only a huge number of models, but also a variety of tread patterns, which also need to be sorted out.
One of the most popular patterns is the traditional directional pattern, which has been used on the tread surface of a wide variety of tires for decades.
What are directional tires and why are they still in demand not only among motorists, but also among professional motorcycle racers? In the article, we will reveal all the secrets and technologies of directional tires, as well as show you how to install them correctly. Here, nuances and discoveries await us at every step.
There are four types of car tire tread pattern:
directional symmetrical,
non-directional symmetrical,
non-directional asymmetrical,
directional asymmetric.
Each drawing is created for its own version of the road and has its own set of advantages. Different tread patterns have different functionality and behavior on the road. When mounting tires on wheels, their own installation principles also work, which will need to be strictly observed so as not to create an emergency.
We will talk about them in the corresponding section.
The essence of the directional tread design is clear at a glance: the blocks, ribs and tread grooves of the V-pattern are directional, spinning the wheel in a certain direction. Most often, directional tires are found in winter models, but there are many of them among summer ones. In symmetrical tires, both halves of the directional tread are mirrored, in an asymmetric design, both halves have a different structure and different functionality.
It is necessary to mount the wheels only in the right direction, otherwise all the advantages will come to naught, and at the same time problems with handling and accelerated wear will be added. Excessive strong pressure will accumulate in the center of the working area, due to which the tire will begin to rise above the road and harm traction in how many areas.
The directional tread pattern performs best on wet asphalt trails, as the grooves that widen from the center to the side zones are much better at shedding water from the contact surface.
This not only improves grip on wet surfaces, but also works in favor of protection against the effect of hydroplaning. This works even better for a rear-wheel drive car - the front wheels will quickly clear the water before the rear axle sets foot on the road. Accordingly, contact with the track in such a car will be much more thorough.
The directional pattern of the winter models excels in raking snow and clearing dirt from the contact surface - ideal for snowy trails in the winter.
On a dry summer surface, they also give the car a couple of advantages - first of all, it concerns directional and lateral stability. For high-speed tires, this is one of the most relevant designs, as directional tires have a positive effect on the reactions of the car at high speed.
However, their driving disadvantage is the increased noise level during active work on asphalt, and the higher the speed, the stronger the rumble. Also, directional tires are more expensive than non-directional tires, but cheaper than asymmetric ones.
It is better not to install directional tires if you often drive on dirt roads or are completely forced to drive off-road. They will not show effective work on soft and medium hard surfaces. For rural areas, a tread pattern with a non-directional arrangement of large lugs is better suited. Remember that, being put on disks, wheels with directional rubber can only be changed from the front axle to the rear and vice versa, but not rearranged on the sides. To do this, the tires will have to be disassembled and put as needed.
Although we've talked about directional tires, it's the symmetrical design that's most common. Asymmetric directional pattern is very rare. This is due to the fact that such tires are not only much more difficult and expensive to manufacture, but they have one serious drawback for car owners. Due to the very strict installation scheme for the car, constant difficulties arose with spares - I had to constantly carry two spare wheels with me instead of one, because you never know which tire will be damaged, and you can’t change directional asymmetric tires with sides.
In addition, the warehouses constantly accumulated tires for only one side, which are completely useless without a paired wheel.
As mentioned above, one of the "secrets" of directional tires is their installation pattern. Simply put, you need to find the inscription Rotation (from the English. "Rotation") with an arrow on the sidewall. It is this marker that is an indicator - in which direction the tire pattern should “look” when installed on a car. If you make a mistake with the direction of rotation and put the rubber against the arrow, then the drainage system will rake in water like a mill, and not discard it, leveling all the advantages of the model, or even exacerbating them. The fact that the tires are installed incorrectly will tell you a sharply increased noise in the cabin.
If for some reason you could not find this marker, then you can do it even easier - pay attention to the tire tread pattern itself. The rubber of the directional design is a kind of "herringbone" that is directed forward.
Simply mount the tires so that the tread pattern faces the direction of travel of the vehicle.
Rubber with an asymmetric device must only be mounted according to the marking, since each individual side is designed for its own tasks and should never be confused. The correct direction of asymmetric tires will help determine the labels:
Outside, or the outer side of the tire, must face outward.
Inside, or the inner side, respectively, looks inside the car.
Right and left asymmetric tires are much less common. Left (or simply L) will be written on one tire - it means that it must be placed to the left of the body, Right (R) - to the right. You can change them only on one side of the body - front with rear and vice versa.
But much more often, directional tires can be mounted on a rim on either side, the main thing is to follow the direction of the pattern.
And don't forget to balance freshly built wheels - without good balance, tires will never reveal their advantages and characteristics.
