  LETHAL PURSUITS V3.0  —  CASUAL  [Easy]
  Light Pursuit / Casual Challenge
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Casual sits one step above Rookie. The pursuit system here gives you
real pursuit action — cop variety scales properly across Heat 1-10,
supports and roadblocks show up, and the helicopter eventually joins
the chase — but everything is paced gently. Mistakes are easy to
recover from, the bust meter is forgiving, and you'll have enough
breathing room to actually plan an escape.


─── ABOUT THIS PRESET ────────────────────────────────────────────────

  • Lower cop counts and less aggressive support spam.
  • Helicopter appears later and gives you more room to escape.
  • Roadblocks and Heavy/Leader strategies have longer cooldowns.
  • Heat escalation still exists, but you can recover from mistakes.
  • Busting is more forgiving and evading is easier than Standard.

Recommended for: casual players who want pursuit action without
full chaos. The Lethal Pursuits flavor, just calmer.


─── INSTALLATION ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────

  1. Open the .nfsms script in this folder with NFS-VltEd 4.6 or
     lower (by nfsu360) and apply it to your NFSMW 2005 install.

  2. When prompted, you can read the ui_text shown to you if you want to. Then click the install button, and it will override the fields in your game.


─── OPTIONAL: EXTRA PURSUIT OPTIONS (EPO) ────────────────────────────

After installing this base preset you can OPTIONALLY install the
matching Extra Pursuit Options script for Casual. EPO unlocks
additional pursuit features such as:

  • Higher active cop counts in pursuits
  • Unlocked cop spawn limits
  • Extra support tactics
  • More aggressive police AI behaviour

Think of EPO as a "difficulty+" option. For Casual players it gives
a nice mid-tier bump if pursuits feel too soft — kind of a bridge
between Casual and Standard without committing to the full Standard
preset. Safe to try.


─── KNOWN MOD CONFLICTS ──────────────────────────────────────────────

If you ALREADY have any of these mods installed, you must disable
the listed options in their config files to avoid conflicts with
the bundled Bartender and OpenLimitAdjuster:

  • NFSMW Unlimiter (by nlgxzef)
       → disable ExpandMemoryPools
       → disable RandomizeTraffic

  • NFSMW ExtraOptions (by ExOptsTeam)
       → disable ExpandMemoryPools
       → disable DoScreenPrintf

  • NFSMW HDReflections (by Aero)
       → disable ExpandMemoryPools


─── FINAL NOTE ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Have fun, enjoy the chase, and don't be afraid to bump up to
Standard once Casual starts feeling routine xd.
