Update checked for 1.55, no changes needed
Schumi 25 Feb @ 11:23am 
I hear you! Thanks for an interesting and realistic mod
Erbkaiser  [author] 25 Feb @ 10:58am 
Well, as mentioned, all I did was chance the catch chance from 100% to 90%. I checked the code against the base game yesterday, so I am sure the file is up to date.
Schumi 25 Feb @ 10:37am 
I've driven past 5 cameras and not one of them gave me a ticket. I'm not sure, but I don't think it's quite realistic, but otherwise the mod is very interesting
Erbkaiser  [author] 25 Feb @ 8:58am 
There is a 90% chance of getting caught, instead of a 100% chance. You are very lucky.
Schumi 25 Feb @ 8:39am 
When I connected the mod, I stopped getting fines from cameras, I specifically drove past the cameras at a speed of 100 km/h at the allowed 80 km/h. The police immediately fined me, but the cameras did not
Erbkaiser  [author] 23 Feb @ 11:41pm 
Probably the latter. I check this against the base game code every major patch, and it is still the same.
Pixelclone 23 Feb @ 12:54pm 
It feels like I'm getting fined by cops way more than I used to. Does the mod still work or has there been a tweak or am I just speeding more?
Erbkaiser  [author] 30 Oct, 2024 @ 4:23am 
File checked with the updated base game, there were no changes.
MakTheBlade 26 Oct, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
No worky no more :-(
Erbkaiser  [author] 12 Jun, 2024 @ 1:09pm 
I increased the crash fines to about 1/4 of default. One of the reasons I had set it to the minimal amount was that the AI was too stupid not to crash into the player, and this has now been mostly solved. I may increase it back to full in the future.
Erbkaiser  [author] 4 Jun, 2024 @ 12:29pm 
Yes, I tested it against the base game files and no changes were needed.
Pixelclone 4 Jun, 2024 @ 12:13pm 
Does this work in 1.50?
Erbkaiser  [author] 8 Dec, 2023 @ 5:49am 
Yes, no changes to the police system in the last few mods.
puisorcrocant 8 Dec, 2023 @ 2:02am 
work on 1.49.2?
berna$ 30 Sep, 2023 @ 2:40pm 
funciona :steamthumbsup:
Erbkaiser  [author] 9 Jan, 2023 @ 3:31am 
It should work on any map, unless that map also has police tweaks of its own.
vaidanispol 9 Jan, 2023 @ 2:41am 
Hi and thanks for the wonderful mod! Would this work with the Grand Utopia map? Thanks in advance and happy new year!
Opus Aeterna 1 Dec, 2022 @ 4:21pm 
Is the Hard Mode feature available?
Opus Aeterna 24 Nov, 2022 @ 5:49pm 
Great tweak. I would just recommend to keep 3 seconds and not 10 seconds the delay to receive a fine for speed, just like the reality.
Erbkaiser  [author] 13 Nov, 2022 @ 11:06am 
Checked update for 1.46
Increased wrong way driving to 40% like in ATS
Erbkaiser  [author] 4 Aug, 2022 @ 5:35pm 
Yup
Stefkee 4 Aug, 2022 @ 3:28pm 
1.45 ??

Roon 23 Jan, 2022 @ 3:05pm 
Woah nice! Thank you!
Erbkaiser  [author] 23 Jan, 2022 @ 3:03pm 
Doubling the time seems to be "it". I'll upload a new version with that change.
Roon 23 Jan, 2022 @ 2:48pm 
How is it Erbkaiser? Is there any differences?
Roon 21 Jan, 2022 @ 6:22am 
Okay, thanks!
Erbkaiser  [author] 21 Jan, 2022 @ 6:07am 
I'll test it this weekend and see if I notice a difference.

If you want to experiment yourself -- open C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\227300\2353261146\universal\def\police_data.sii in Notepad and change the line offence_police_check_delay[6] to a higher number like 20.
Should work until I update the mod myself.
Erbkaiser  [author] 21 Jan, 2022 @ 6:05am 
I'll test it a bit with more time before the police reacts.
Speeding is annoying in-game though as speed changes are not always marked correctly on the map. If you pay close attention to the max speed, sometimes you see it go from 80 to 60 back to 80 at intersections for example, since there is an error in how the prefab is setup. If you just happen to get unlucky and the police check timer happens while you're in the 60 zone, you get an unfair fine.
Roon 21 Jan, 2022 @ 5:21am 
Or alternatively can you also reduce the possibility of speeding police car detection to 70%, if possible?
Roon 21 Jan, 2022 @ 5:19am 
Hmm strange... Sometimes the police fined me almost instantly for me(Which is like game default), this caused me to lose 1,000 euros ;-;

Can you look at this issue and fix if possible?
Erbkaiser  [author] 21 Jan, 2022 @ 2:31am 
Hi Roon,

I already have it set to 10 seconds.

ffence_police_check_delay[6]: 10 # speeding - ORIGINAL: 3
Roon 21 Jan, 2022 @ 12:44am 
I have a suggestion, can you increase the delay before police car detects the speeding offense to 10 seconds? (By default it is 3 seconds which makes hard to avoid fines for sudden speed changes)

This feature was amazing on CountVlad's Police Tweaks mod and sad that this mod still uses default value(Which is 3 seconds)
Bucketsmith 9 Dec, 2021 @ 2:33am 
Ok thank you
Erbkaiser  [author] 9 Dec, 2021 @ 2:04am 
No update needed, there were no changes to the fine system.
Bucketsmith 8 Dec, 2021 @ 3:37pm 
Does this need an update to 1.43 or has it not been affected by the update?
Valkyrie 25 Apr, 2021 @ 4:55am 
Okay yeah, that sounds good, I thought it was if no cops were around they would hardly work
Erbkaiser  [author] 24 Apr, 2021 @ 3:51pm 
I've gone back and forth on them, currently detection chance is at 90%. The reason is that sometimes IRL they also don't work.
Valkyrie 24 Apr, 2021 @ 2:02pm 
I feel that speed cameras shouldn't be part of this as they are automated
