Enhanced Pursuit Dynamics

Enhanced Pursuit Dynamics

This mod is made to make pursuits in Need for Speed: Most Wanted more intense, challenging, and entertaining. The idea is to make it less easy to escape and give the cops more variety and better tactics. I modified several aspects of the game to achieve this.

Summary of modifications:

"Aivehicle" Data: I adjusted the speed and acceleration of patrol cars so they don’t fall behind so quickly.
"Ecar" Data: I fixed some minor details, like the camera type used by copsuvl vehicles.
"Pursuitlevels" Data: I rebalanced the difficulty of the pursuits. Now the progression is more consistent and new units appear at each heat level, including more SUVs and new tactical formations.
"Pursuitsupport" Data: Support is now more aggressive. You’ll see helicopters and SUVs more frequently and with more intensity.
"Pvehicle" Data: I made some small tweaks, like changing the weight of heavy vehicles and modifying some sounds.

Extras:

I modified the fields in the nodes so others can edit the mod more easily if they want to.
I also included an uninstaller that restores everything to how it was before the mod was installed (it restores the game’s original data).

How To Install:

1) Download NFS-VltEd v4.6 or newer.
2) Launch NFS-VltEd.
3) File -> Import -> ModScript -> Enhanced_Pursuit_Dynamics_NFSMW.nfsms
4) Read the options, select what you want, and install.
5) File -> save.

Installation options:

This mod has different difficulty levels. You can choose the one you like most or uninstall it if you want to return to the original game.
(Note: it does not restore other mods you may have installed before)

Easy: Slightly better than the original, but still fairly simple.
Normal: More challenging and fun. Ideal if you want to replay Most Wanted.
Hard: Now this is a real challenge. Recommended if you're already a veteran of the game.
Original: Uninstalls the mod.

Things to keep in mind:

1) You must start a new game for the mod to work correctly.
2) Read carefully what the installer says, and if you have any questions, ask in the comments.

Screenshots

Do whatever you want with the mod, I didn't create the game or its codes, all I did was modify some values in NFS-VltEd to make the game the way I like it, and I'm just sharing it with you. I don't understand why that should have copyright.

@NioRoka I never used NFS Attrib Loader, but I would say it doesn't work. Maybe you need to copy all the commands from my modscript, meaning take what you need and create a new .nfsms file compatible with NFS Attrib Loader.

To create the file, you could install VLT-ED, enable the "store mod commands" option, install the mod normally but without saving, copy the generated commands, paste them into a .nfsms file, and then load that into NFS Attrib Loader. Could it work like that?

Does this and/or the Rivals Unleashed mod work with the NFS Attrib Loader? Or is using VltEd mandatory?

@Lavidesimple Thank you for letting me know there's an issue with the lights. I think I know what it is, I'll see if I can fix it. :)

The CopAiFix makes police vehicles disappear in races or their lights no longer shine (at least from what I’ve seen in the dday or pre-race). Taking advantage of this comment, you can change only the nodes in VLTED based on the script editor without saving the mod. Oh, and the problem with Ronnie BL 3 doesn’t need to be changed. BL 14-8 both in the first level
