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:

SOUND
- AI

- 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.
