Rivals Unleashed - Enhanced Difficulty





Rivals Unleashed - Enhanced Difficulty




The 'Rivals Unleashed - Enhanced Difficulty' (formerly known as Enhanced Difficulty Selector) is a modscript designed to increase the game's difficulty, making replaying it more satisfying. It offers options to configure the blacklist and random runners, and I have worked to balance it as best as possible.

The mod can be uninstalled without issues and is easily configurable using a text editor (notepad). The SkillLevel parameter controls the bot's ability to avoid crashes, while 0xb1ece070 acts as an acceleration multiplier.


How To Install:




  • 1) Download NFS-VltEd v4.6 or newer.
  • 2) Launch NFS-VltEd.
  • 3) File -> Import -> ModScript -> Rivals Unleashed - Enhanced Difficulty.nfsms
  • 4) Set up and install.
  • 5) File -> save.



The criteria I used to assign values to the blacklist racers was simply to use the best car available at the time. Then, when playing against the blacklist racer, I had to make sure they put up a fight, meaning they shouldn't fall behind and should only catch up to me or get ahead if I made mistakes. As for the random racers, I simply set values of 0.9 (bl1) and 0.09 (bl15) and filled in with appropriate intermediate values.

This mod is a bit tricky to configure, so I would need your help. If you notice anything negative about the mod, feel free to let me know in the comments so I can try to fix it :)

-------If you’ve tried the mod, I’d like you to tell me in which stages of the blacklist the random racers are harder or easier than expected. I’ll take note and try to adjust them so their difficulty is both challenging and fair according to the stage of the blacklist.----------

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.

I don't play with addons or any other mods that affects the performance of the cars. I'm talking about in general. All races are kind of easy. I remember that the Battle Royale mod has a very hard AI, Idk if you can do something similar like that.

@Moises115 Well, it’s worth clarifying that everything is made for the base game. If you installed broken cars or mods that alter the car values, it’s normal for it to feel easy.

If the game is vanilla, then the blacklist is already perfect as it is. I only need to configure the random racers, who can be tough in some stages of the blacklist but easy in others. I’d like to know in which stages they’re easy or very difficult so I can adjust them properly.

can you add an insane difficulty? it's still very easy the Expert mode.

Recomendation
d. For even greater difficulty install like this:
-After defeating Bl 15, install the first difficulty level for both Blacklist and Random Racers.
-After defeating Bl 11, install the second difficulty level for Blacklist only.
-After defeating Bl 8, install the third difficulty level for Blacklist and the second level for Random Racers.
-After defeating Bl 4, install the fourth difficulty level for Blacklist and the third level for Random Racers. (both on Expert) for the 3 main characters

@Lavidesimple I'll tell you, since the original difficulty didn't satisfy me, I decided to look for game data related to the bots' difficulty. By following certain patterns, I realized that 'SkillLevel' makes the bots dodge better and '0xb1ece070' makes the bots accelerate or reach their top speed faster. I set everything so the bots stay as close to you as possible at all times, but it can be configured to make them more difficult. Regards :)
