Rush Hour Traffic





This mod aims to increase traffic density drastically for all Career and Challenge series race events. No longer the city would feel empty and devoid of any traffic during races, including Canyons in Carbon, especially in early parts of the games. It won't be as dense as the Midnight club games though, but would still definitely add a layer of challenge for players in doing events, testing their reflexes dealing with traffic in races. Providing a slightly different experience in progressing through both games.

Update features:
  • Added an option that slightly increases traffic spawnrate.
  • Hot Pursuit Challenges support

As always, remember to backup your GLOBAL folder just incase, despite having Uninstall scripts for them.

Vlted 4.6 is required for installing this mod for both games.

Compatible mods:
  • Kryzee's MW and Carbon Redux (use Vanilla install for both games)
  • Vanilla (Both games, also applies to copies not having overhaul mods shown below installed)
  • Beta Content Mod (MW)
  • Hot Pursuit Challenges (MW)
  • Pepega Edition v1.1 and v2.0 (MW)
  • Endgame (Carbon)
  • Improvement mod, Improvement + Endgame (Carbon)
  • Carbon Battle Royale
  • Carbon Ultimate mod

Notes:
  • Closed track events in Carbon are not affected as it would not make sense having traffic there.
  • Addon tracks not included in the overhaul mods or base games like Luqgreg's MW Cut Races won't get the changes. But you can manually set them via Vlted if you wish to do so.
  • Drag races in Most Wanted are unaffected due to traffic's heavily scripted nature there.
  • May experience dips in performance when doing Race Wars in Carbon
  • Traffic density may significantly decrease upon starting a pursuit whilst in a race.
  • You can opt to use this with stoplookingmypic's Increase Traffic Density if you wish to do so, albeit with different set of traffic pattern
  • For Most Wanted, will NOT work with modloader!
