Elongated Automobile Catalogue





Intro



Welcome to Elongated Automobile Catalogue, a set of standalone addons for Carbon, and an entity totally distinct from ECL and its ilk.
How it differs from its counterparts, is that you will never be forced to install cars you don't want or need, nor will the mod be figuratively closed-source and entirely incompatible with other releases, major or minor.
Ease of maintenance is the primary reason why all existing mods have been repackaged and submitted as a single pack.

For an exhaustive list of changes made betweem 10/11/2020 [last global hotfix] and now, refer to "pre-release changelog.txt".
Just like existing cars, new ones will have individual readmes containing general information, feature listing, notes and credits.


Install requirements



Carbon Unlimiter by nlgzrgn
Binary by MaxHwoy
Vlted 4.6 by smiley
Alternatively, if you know your way around Attribulator, get it HERE. Reameb wrote a user guide for the tool, which is available HERE

If a car has extra requirements, those will be noted next to it.

Once you have what's needed, download the mod archive, unpack it anywhere and follow the link inside "_EAC download.txt".
From there, pick a car, right click on its folder, select "download as ZIP", then unpack.


Quick instructions



- run Binary in user mode and import "binary_setup.end", save files when asked, don't run the game yet
- run Vlted, load NFSC database, Ctrl+I -> main -> "vlt_setup.nfsms" -> pick setup type -> click Install -> Ctrl+S, don't run the game yet
- if you're updating any of the existing cars, pick "Reinstall" as setup types and go through the frontend node cleanup afterwards, otherwise ignore this step
- cars are no longer unlocked from the start so either use Extra Options' "Unlock All" cheat or manually insert car unlocks through Vlted
- whatever you choose during setups, you will most likely need a new savegame

Detailed instructions are in the full readme.

Can you update this for Extended Customization V3? You can simply add support for the new license plates bcuz it's customizable now

Erce (July 26, 2023 @ 07:02)
for some reason the custom pagani got missing parts for me.
