Mafia II - 1945 traffic and map past Chapter 5

[Foxite]

Greetings!

I wanted to ask if there is a possibility to modify the setting game loads beginning from Chapter 7. Is there a way to have 1945 traffic, music, map etc. without the brute force method of replacing the textures?

Is there a mod or a script available that provides for Winter even after Vito's release from jail in the Story Mode? So far I have found Badyorko Mode, a mod that introduces Winter into Joe's Adventures and Jimmy's Vendetta. Is it possible to get a similar result in the Story Mode?

Thanks for every response in advance!

Some guy over at the Mafia 2 Toolkit Discord server was working on a mod to make a winter version for the 50s part of the story. However I think he eventually got stuck with the Room Service chapter as he wasn't able to get rid of the collisions for the fence that secures the hotel construction site in the 40s version of the map.

You can find the invite link for said server in the readme of the Mafia2Toolkit project on Github in case you want to join to ask for additional information.
