International Traffic Pack by Elitesquad Modz – Vanilla Edition
| Abstract:
This modification enhances the realism of in-game traffic by introducing vehicles with foreign license plates, elevating the overall gameplay immersion to a higher level.
Detailed spawn configurations have been crafted for each country and traffic type to replicate international traffic patterns as faithfully as possible.
The current release of this mod is limited to vanilla cars, trucks, and trailers and features all countries present in the vanilla game (including all map DLCs).
Future updates will focus on adding buses, vans, campers, and caravans. Additionally, there are plans to develop a ProMods Edition and add-ons for Jazzycats traffic mods.
Features:
This mod…
– adds foreign car traffic to each of the countries featured in the vanilla game (including all map DLCs)
– adds foreign truck+trailer traffic to each of the countries featured in the vanilla game (including all map DLCs)
– features spawn rates per foreign country and vehicle type, based on statistics and expert evaluations, so that the real-life traffic distribution is accurately simulated
– adds traffic from random countries with a small probability
– allows foreign vehicles to spawn at parking spots
– maintains the native distribution of spawn rates for the different vehicles abroad so that those with high/low spawning rates have high/low spawning rates abroad as well
– guarantees that vehicles maintain the steering wheel orientation of their origin country when driving in foreign countries
– features trucks, trailers, and cars from the vanilla game only
– features a subset of all trailers to appear abroad to prevent memory overflows and to filter out trailer types that generally appear only in national traffic
Compatibility:
The mod is tested on 1.48, 1.48.5, and 1.49
Map mods:
The current edition is aimed at the vanilla game, but it can be used with any map mod that features (a subset of the) vanilla countries.
However, do keep in mind that vehicles from non-vanilla countries will not appear abroad. I am currently working on a version aimed at ProMods, in which I will add vehicles from all the countries featured in their main map mod.
Traffic mods:
This mod works by adding a country-specific variant of each traffic vehicle to the AI traffic. The spawn rates are designed with the set of vanilla vehicles in mind.
Hence, any mod that adds additional AI vehicles will likely result in a reduction in the proportion of international traffic. Mods that alter the overall traffic density
should work just fine in combination with this mod. I will work on an add-on featuring the cars from Jazzycats AI Traffic mod, and maybe a separate one for his Painted Truck Traffic Pack.
