[Shift] Overhaul Mod 2.0

[VELOCIPEDE]

Overhaul Mod v2.0

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4ADZDWZ7

This mod is a collection of tweaks/fixes/addons to mod various aspects of Shift. Car handling is somewhat easier around the centre for straight line driving, and harder at the edges, compared to default game and community patch. "Pro" difficulty is recommended.

Feature overview:

i) many bugs have been fixed. It turns out, Shift is actually a lot better game once you get rid of a bunch of low level bugs

ii) practically every physics component of the game has been altered with the aim of improving basic data accuracy and in-game consistency between cars. Suspensions, engines and aerodynamics have been altered to reflect per-car and per-upgrade level changes more accurately than in the default game, and there are many changes to default car setups and controller profiles to give better feedback and response to control input, particularly for wheel users.

iii) an extremely large number of visual, audio, and gameplay tweaks have been provided by members of the Shift community, either removing outright or giving you the option to remove several other annoyances from the stock game.

v2.00rc

--------

Changelog:

Last 1% always takes the most time release.

Fixed Ferrari road car downforce, gear ratio, and turbo presence bugs (thanks JDougNY).

Fixed incorrect Camaro engine assignment (thanks JDougNY).

Fixed incorrect Infiniti G35 suspension assignment (thanks JDougNY).

Fixed Lamborghini, Challenger, Mustang suspensions (thanks JDougNY).

Leggi attentamente i vari readme presenti: spiegano tutto per filo e per segno. In generale devi mettere la cartella presente in Step 2, una di quelle in Step 3 e quelle che vuoi in Step 4.

Come detto,

Dopo un'ora e passa di prova devo dire che il mod

secondo il mio parere la miglior AI tra tutti i mod di shift

[Cris_Ace]

Scusate,vorrei installare questa mod e mi sto studiando il read-me,ma ho trovato delle incongruenze che mi fanno storcere il naso ancora prima di installarlo;

nel read-me e' scritto di impostare i controlli lasciando una zona morta del 5 % sui pedali,oltre che impostare la sensibilita' in modo non lineare sui pedali gas e freno (20%)

Inoltre ,continua dicendo di impostare il famoso profiler del logitech lasciando al 100 % anche i valori di "effetto molla" e "forza effetto", cosa che ormai e' ben nota da anni di lasciare impostata sui classici zero con molla di centratura abilitata ma sempre a zero...

Mi confermate la bonta' della mod e sopratutto che davvero dobbiamo inserire i settaggi in questo modo e non come facciamo di solito per tutte le altre simulazioni di guida?

Sensibilita' al 50% (ovvero linearita' massima), zona morta a zero e il classico settaggio del pannello logitech,99/101% forza e il resto a zero,chi ce l'ha mi puo' dire se funziona bene impostato sul nostro ormai standard oppure se merita questi settaggi particolari e assurdi?

Io sapevo che forza effetti ed effetto molla "sporcavano" gli effetti del force feedback e che la zona morta a zero con linearita' massima (che ricordo era data dal valore di 50% su sensibilita dell'asse) era una cosa su cui non si discute per avere il controller quanto piu' simile a quello reale,e' ancora cosi,giusto?
