ProMods is the undisputed king. For version 1.35.1.31, the compatible version is ProMods 2.43.

Grimes is a legend in the community. For base 1.35, his Late Autumn mod removes leaves from trees, adds overcast skies, and increases fog probability.

To drive from Germany to the heart of Russia, you need RusMap 1.9.0. This version fixes the infamous "broken road" near St. Petersburg which plagued earlier builds. When combined with ProMods 2.41 (using the correct connection patch), you can haul cargo from Lisbon to Moscow without a single crash.
Driving through Russia without RusMap is a crime. Version 1.9.0 connects seamlessly with ProMods 2.43 using a connector patch. You get vast forests, rough winter textures, and challenging dirt roads leading to Murmansk. The unique coding of 1.35.1.31 allows RusMap to load without the "map cache overflow" errors seen in later patches.
