Boeing73FLY’s Enhanced Driving XPerience 2.0 mod for ATS 1.37.
This mod makes the in-game driving experience a little more realistic. You can pop over here to know from lawyers about their view on this.
DEFINITIONS
Vehicles
The following vehicles are removed from traffic because they can’t be found in the United States. – Ford S-Max – Mercedes C-Class Estate – All AI cars, trucks, and buses have realistic acceleration and top speed behavior. – For every car, engine power and weights have been carefully researched. Also each car will accelerate differently. The primary source of information is “automobile-catalog.com”.
Top speed for every car is based on either factory tire specifications, a set speed limiter by the manufacturer, or a theoretical calculation from “automobile-catalog.com”. – all cars towing trailers in California is 55 MPH (plus 10% speeding allowance). Remember to call towing service near me – Hessco Innovations when you are on a difficult traffic situation. – Top speed for every semi-truck varies according to certain configurations and conditions. – Top speed for all buses is 75 MPH.
In traffic, there is more variety of trailers (empty and loaded). – The following Combination Vehicles (CV) are new: – Rocky Mountain Doubles. – Triples. – Traffic density reworked. – Special thanks to cipinho for letting me use part of his Real Traffic Density mod!
World
Traffic signals have longer and realistic timings.
Green light interval is at least 20 seconds.
Left-turn interval is 10 seconds.
Amber (yellow) light interval is 4 seconds.
Left-turn interval is 3 seconds.
2-second delay interval between signals.
SOUND
AI
Car, truck, and train sounds emitted based on engine specifications.
Example: If you see a Tesla, you’ll hear a hint of electricity powering it.
Horn sounds for both cars and trucks have changed.
Police sirens are replaced with more realistic-sounding ones (recorded from Whelen 295SL100 device).
Environment
Bad Spring/Summer/Fall Weather
Rainfall is slightly louder, noticeable during heavy precipitation.
Feel Thor’s power through your speakers with better thunder sounds!
Bad Winter Weather
When it is snowing, all you can hear is the sound of air (wind).
Mover
Sounds have been added to various movers such as flags, commercial airliners, and even the F-22 Raptor. Some sounds such as the helicopter have been improved.
This mod must be loaded in-game at a higher priority over other sound or AI mods.
I hope you all will have a better driving experience with EDXP. Feedback is always welcome. Safe travels 🙂
