Improved Physics, Open World and Arcade Mode

Hi, TDC v1.2.0 is here with an important vehicle physics improvement and an open world map



Here's what's new to this update.



NEW



  • Added back the Open World map with a new design. NOTE : the map is a WORK IN PROGRESS and not yet completed. Performance may not be good enough


  • Added an Arcade and Pro Drift physics mode. NOTE, both modes are EXPERIMENTAL, based on the Simcade physics mode with some different settings and helpers


IMPROVED



  • IMPORTANT : improved wheels rotation relation to engine rotation. This fixes the weird wheels slip and losing traction when doing U-turns or reverse entries. Now cars behave much better and are much easier to control
  • IMPORTANT : improved (adjusted) some engine properties for better experience which together with the physics fix/improvement it makes the vehicle much nicer to slide
  • Adjusted camera target look point for Action, Drift and Race cameras.
    - the look at target is moved forward related to car center which gives better look and feel
  • Adjusted engine swap prices (previously all engine swaps costed 25K)
