Overhauled Handling

Overhauled Handling

This mod significantly enhances the core driving dynamics of NFS 2015, with a focus on both Grip and Drift setups. Cars become more predictable, responsive, and enjoyable to control, while various performance aspects have been reworked for a more refined experience.

Improvements:

Tires:[/b]
Grip and Drift tires now behave as expected — Grip tires deliver true traction for high-speed cornering, while Drift tires allow smoother and more controlled lateral slides.

Braking:
Brake pressure and bias have been fine-tuned to improve stopping power and cornering stability.

Aerodynamics:
Downforce and drag have been rebalanced — favoring quicker corner exits or higher top speed depending on your tuning direction.

Steering:
Increased steering angle and faster response allow for sharper, more confident inputs in all driving styles.

Suspension:
New Grip and Drift suspensions were added improving the most sober driving configuration

SwayBar:
Improves car roll and sideslip for Drift or Grip conditions.

Differential:
Now affects both grip and drift setups, enhancing traction and balance during acceleration and deceleration.

Turbo:
More different types of turbos/supercharger were added for all categories

BUG
V1.68: A bug in the drift system was fixed where, when entering at a specific angle, the vehicle would abruptly gain excessive speed. With the modification, drift initiation now maintains a stable and consistent transition, eliminating the abnormal acceleration behavior.

@NikkMann Do you have Discord or Steam so we can communicate?

Oh ok, what variables in frosty did you edit to remove the auto-control if you don't mind me asking? Been trying to figure it out for a while, drives me crazy,

Hi @NikkMann In Grip, artificial sideslip is removed, in Drift it remains but has been significantly reduced so that it doesn't negatively affect handling. Make sure to download the latest version, as it's the one that's fixed.
