Vehicle Rebalancing Project - First Release

This is my first post on the forum and this is about a mod I got the idea of doing for the past week so this is gonna be a really simple and straightforward mod.

Have you ever thought that the cars in this game are not completely balanced in terms of usage? For some reason, vehicles like the Duff Truck or the Canyonero get constantly bashed on for being bad meanwhile the Malibu Stacy Car and Car Built from Homer get praised on for being VERY good for they level you get them in? I, most likely, got the solution for your problem.

THIS MOD TRIES TO COMPLETELY READJUST MOST UNLOCKABLE VEHICLES IN THE GAME. wheter to buff or nerf them, and make all vehicles in a level have their uses but with different categories for them.

I made the adjustments based on the criteria I'll list below.

The 3 Purchasable Cars for each Level will be divided into three categories, which are:

TANK: specializes on destruction, they carry a high destructive power although their speed and acceleration values may be slightly worse than the average of the level (this includes really big vehicles such as the Cola Truck, the Fire Truck, etc).

ACCELERATION: specializes on very good headstarts, these cars generally will have a vastly high acceleration and handling compared to the rest of the level vehicles but their endurance and speed will be significantly lower making them better options for point A to B missions or races. They are the most consistent ones (examples would include the Nerd Car, the Police Car or the Duff Truck).

WELL ROUNDED: as the name says, these cars aren't going to overly specialize in any category. They will just be an ''Jack of All Trades but Master of None''. classic examples for this are the Car Built for Homer and the Mr Plow. Examples for this in the mod would be the Surveillance Van or the Chase Sedan,

on top of that, the AWARDED CARS (from Street Races and Bonus Missions) will be better than the Average Vehicle in that Level, making them a Level Ahead perfomance wise.

Vehicles in each level will have a cap for how fast they can be according to how early you unlock them. Level 1 vehicles will cap at 1.5 speed stars and 3 acceleration but these values increase by .5 per level until Level 5 (max acceleration) or Level 7 (max speed) are reached

Vehicles will also be within a certain range of stats per level, so big cars will not be completely overshadowed in their speed and acceleration values like it happened in the Vanilla Game, and there will not be an ''too slow'' or ''too fast'' vehicle for the level you get them. I also nerfed 3 certain traffic vehicles so there's absolutely no reason to use them over any unlockable car in an very early level.

I''ll also go ahead and say which vehicles are unaffected by this mod.

•Any Level 7 Vehicle (Level 7 vehicles were actually well balanced in the vanilla game, so didn't feel the need of tweaking anything honestly).
•Most starter cars, with the exception of the Malibu Stacy Car and the Canyonero (same as above, they were mostly well balanced).
•Mr Plow (again, probably one of the most well balanced unlockable cars).

Ok I think that was enough yapping, download link below.

DOWNLOAD

I haven't downloaded it yet but I recommend you have pictures next time for your next mod 😊

I'd probably upload an video of the mod for when I get time, I don't think images would do it justice as it's just a handling modification. Thanks for the feedback though.

I mean you can always use my video i am a Simpsons Hit & Run Modded YouTuber anyways 😉
