Dr1ve – A different vehicle handling experience
A different driving experience. Vehicles don’t have that floaty feeling physics to them anymore. The steering feels like you are cornering a vehicle instead of turning an imaginary axle in the middle of the car/bike.
Made a little mod that tweaks the vehicle handling. Got inspired, when i tried “drive it like you stole it” and just made a handling tweak mod myself. I modded the behavior of the cars and bikes how i imagined CP2077 would feel before having played it. And i didn’t want to copy GTA or any other open world games, imho it should be it’s own thing. So i just tried to fix the stuff that bugged me while playing.
Things i tried to address:
slightly floaty feeling and spongy springs when driving over obstacles
steering that feels a bit, like you turn on an imaginary axis in the center of the vehicle
bikes don’t have that “leaning into corner sensation”
vehicles feel a tad too arcady (for my taste)
If you use the little ini tweak you’ll notice the driving experience is different, the vehicles feel more grounded, a bit weightier when cornering and riding bikes has a different sensation, too. When driving at higher speeds at it feels a tad faster and you sometimes have to brake if the turn is too tight.
At first i didn’t like the altered behavior that much, but it grew on me, and now i can’t live without it. Everyone who tried it on my computer, liked it, so i thought, why not share it, maybe someone else likes it, too.
Installation / Uninstallation:
Just unpack the downloaded file in the root folder of Cyberpunk, it contains the appropriate subfolder structure. If you want to uninstall it, you’ll find it in the subfolder “engine\config\platform\pc” of your CP2077 installation. Just delete the file “vhdr1ve.ini” in there.
