Noob's ProStreet Handling Overhaul

Noob's ProStreet Handling Overhaul changes the unnecessarily sluggish and awkward feeling of the original handling. It's an alternate take on the ProStreet's handling with elements from past NFS games and other racing games, combined with many fixes and adjustments.

A new big update has been released! Check out the ModDb article for more in depth info!

Note: If you're updating this mod, use a fresh copy or restore backups via VltEd for the intended
experience. Since the modifications are really deep, It's hard to make a proper updater, sorry for
inconvenience.

[Handling changes]:
-Faster and more precise steering
-No snap oversteer at high speeds
-Engine braking slows down the car more
-Counter steering is more effective
-Improved FWD behavior
-Roads are %10 grippier
-Removed every assist from king level except the ABS
-Improved collision momentum between cars

[Fixes]:
-Fixed the useless forced induction upgrades for classic muscle cars
-Fixed the classic muscle car gear ratios (mostly)
-Fixed many of the bouncy cars on speed challenge
-Fixed many of the broken upgrades (Tires, power, ect.)
-Fixed the absurd handling of Koenigsegg CCX and McLaren F1
-Fixed the cam timing tuning (By JammyGamer)
-Fixed the Mclaren F1 sound problem (optional)

[Optional adjustments]:
-2x faster shift speed for all cars (optional)
-Increased AI and drift difficulty (optional)
-Removable top speed limiter (optional)
-Nitrous for DBR9 and Veyron (optional)
-FWD/AWD cars for drift mode (optional)
-Equal drift multipliers for all cars (optional)
-Hardcore damage (optional)

[Installation]:
1-) Get the NFS VltEd from Here
2-) Open the program, at the upper left, click "file" and "open" then select the ProStreet's game installation folder.
3-) At the upper left, click the "import" and "import script" button. And select the installer that came with the mod, install it and save.

[Mod support, OGVI and game compatibility]:
-It may conflict with mods that adjusts the handling of the cars.
-R4BBIT's AI Overhaul works with this mod, install that first then the handling overhaul.
-This mod works with OGVI, but it's not fully tuned or tested with it.
-This mod is only tested at version 1.1, compatibility is not guaranteed with version 1.0 of the game.

@ZZZ I tried OGVI today, looks like it uses the same variables as VltEd, even the installer works fine. I didn't tested an OGVI installation but it looks like it should work with it. Unless i'm missing something.

@NoobSolid26 Glad to know that, I'll be trying the mod on a fresh install as you can't use vlted after using OGVI but I'm loving the idea and the added documentation explaining the changes and the reasoning behind it are great and quite rare in the NFS modding scene.
