with this

You can add snow to any map in the game:

The important part is the line

envi_cover_intensity_map:t=""

Where you can paste the following variables:

There are more of these snowy shaders but they probably look the same.

Tunisia:

tunisia_4x4_grass_masks*

Tunisia_4x4… is also snow? hold on…

Yep.

tunisia_4x4_tex_b*
tunisia_4x4_tex_d*
etc… produced the same or very similar results to the other shaders.

Normandy:

normandy_beach_fortified_1x1_building_paint_tex_d*

normandy_beach_sand_tex_b*

Also by changing the values of :

There is a way, but i don’t know it…

UPDATE 09.26:

So there are many MANY more variables you can use, some examples:

microdetail_grass_a_tex_n*


Enlisted LSD edition

microdetail_mud_a_tex_n*

Basically the previous one but with less saturated colors

grass_cortadelia_selloana_tex_d

Still, not very useful…
