Misc More AI Crashes, More Pitstops, More Slipstream (Copy + Paste or Manual) v11

poostick submitted a new resource:

More AI Crashes, More Pitstops, More Slipstream (Copy + Paste or Manual) - More AI Crashes

It appears 'StrongestFish' and 'hrry' are no longer supporting the Extreme Medium and Realistic Damage mod.

So I did it myself (originally for just private use) and made a few other tweaks to get a more realistic experience. But I decided that I must share it with you guys, as I think it's great!

What does this mod do?
- It weakens all aspects of the AI cars. So when they collide, there's a higher chance of them getting terminal damage. (NOTE: This higher damage does not...

I can make another c+p for you which includes the My Team cars if you like.
It'll have to be another day though (Probably Monday!).
Like I said, originally this was a personal project with changes to suit my own gamestyle. I personally don't like breaking my front wing when I clip a leaf, I find Simulation Damage in-game to be just about right from a gameplay point of view.
But I am happy to make more versions to suit other people, just let me know if you want me to make some changes it's not a problem.
(If you have EGO ERP Archiver it's quite simple to change this yourself manually, I can show you how if you want this quickly over the weekend instead of waiting until Monday)

Nothing aesthetically. It's the tyre wear rate that I changed.
Other mods that change that visual aspect of the tyres shouldn't have any affect on my mod, so feel free to combine them

tyre wear rate is in all of the team.erp files in the xml. I forget the name of the line but its something like "tyrewearfactor" or something like that. Its on 1.0 normally but if you changed it to 1.25 then it would mean 25% more wear.

poostick updated More AI Crashes, More Pitstops, More Slipstream (Copy + Paste or Manual) with a new update entry:

+ Added Tyre Wear / + Added Optional MyTeam increased damage

Turns out I'm a dumb dumb and uploaded an old version without the Tyre Wear
Also added an optional folder to give the increased damage to MyTeam vehicles.

Ah ok, I'll give that a whirl on Monday/Tuesday and if it plays out like you said I might post another update.
PunctureWearMin is a good shout aswell, I'll toy around with that.
Thanks for the help mate!
