Real AI Country Spawns Add-on for Jazzycat

[Carlos27]

I've tried your emergency vehicle mod and I have to say it's incredibly beautiful and accurate, and it also provides a more realistic integration into the environment. So, congratulations and thank you very much for this mod!

Regarding this mod, I have two questions:
1. Does the fact that only the most famous brands/models from each country appear mean that other cars don't appear at all, or does it simply reduce their spawn rate?
2. Is it compatible with the Sound Fixes Pack mod? I ask because this mod also requires high priority.

I look forward to your answers and thanks again for all your mods in general!

Hello Carlos Glad you like my mods. To your questions:
1. The rarer the car is in the respective country, the lower it's spawn is. However some countries may not get some car at all, for various reasons, either it was not sold there, or it's too old. If I remember correctly, for example I have disallowed old 1997 Opel Zafira for France, as they are mostly gone today.
2. @Drive Safely Did all he could to make our mods at least partially convertible, and has all my respect for doing so. I am not exactly sure if that didn't change? Hopefully Drive Safely can provide us details. In either case, you should place sounds above my mods.

@Carlos27 - I don't modify the Jazzycat cars, so you can enjoy complete compatibility in many cases, and it works well when the Sound Fixes Pack has higher priority.

With the SCS vehicles I provide as much partial compatibility that I can allow.

Lots of the features including country spawn rates and most other details from the Real country AI spawns ADD-ON are coming through in game with this mod combo in my test just now. I'll let the screenshots speak for themselves:

Well Thank you Both for The Answers!

Thank you! Glad you like this update (and hopefully also the previous, noone reacted to it I was sad because the Astra remodel is so good.) I know ppl miss the logos. Especially with Dacias no logos allow it to spawn it also in countries where they are sold as Renaults (like Russia). But I don't mind missing logos personally, car is still recognizable. Maximum of my effort honestly goes to creating my own AI pack right now.

I always look forward to new updates from you! However, I'm just not sure whether it's welcome to always comment.

For me the most important thing is realism. Everything you do to bring more realism into the game is great. that's why I asked about the logos. yes, better no logos than wrong ones. But unfortunately there are now far too many (also new) SCS models in the game that are not very identical to their real car as before. Some cars you have to think several times to even check which car it really should be.. that's extremely annoying.

If there is something I would really like to see, it would be that either these cars are removed, or that you take the time to make them noticeably realistic. I think the first one would be easier. I don't know how to remove specific cars myself, but that would be my wish. But im really really really hyped for your own pack!

Keep on please. Love your mods!!

@ImFrozen

I could not agree more, these new SCS models are really unrealistic. I don't know why all of the sudden they have to look like GTA cars. Probably just SCS playing it safe regarding copyright, but seeing all these almost unrecognizable SCS cars among the perfectly modeled (modded) AI cars kinda breaks immersion. I could live without them as well. Or have them replaced, whatever works for you of course.

There is a mod to remove the default SCS vehicles.

Thanks @yaumeister Most SCS AI cars are actually fine, it's only the newer cars that they've added such as the '21 Peugeot 3008, '22 Volvo XC60 and some other recent cars. Also the Peugeot 3008 is used by Egon's Emergency Traffic Pack so by disabling all SCS cars will probably also disable those i think.

I don't plan to remove new fictional SCS vehicles. In the end, it's up to my decission. I respect SCS decision that they want to make new cars in this style, although I am not always okay with their looks, indeed.
