Does anyone know where this mod create the save file is? Because it doesn't create in C:\Users\%UserName%\Documents\NFS Carbon.Itch (December 27, 2024 @ 00:43)
It's not the end of the world, but I know the issues I listed would make it nearly impossible for me to convince my non-racing game playing friends to give this game a chance.Itch (December 27, 2024 @ 00:40)
This is my first time playing Carbon to be completely honest, but this seems like a neat mod.Unfortunately, I have a few complaints: The campaign difficulty seems awfully overtuned. Races can be tough but are generally manageable, although drift events are hell. I can imagine this would be offputting to some new players, which I would hope this mod would attract thanks to the online capabilites. Also, it's too bad that Windows registers the executable as a virus despite unlikely being malicious.

Is this compatible with other mods?Also, is there a way to lower difficulty for singleplayer and/or to calibrate/edit controller settings other than the key mapping? The handling is too loose and it's a pain to drive.
