📋 About This Mod
(!) Checked for 2. 1 Whenever a new game version comes out causes a critical error. Simply because the game checks version in the file. Uninstall and wait for an update.
(!) If you have Immersive First Person mod, overwrite their file with mine. Their setting is already included.
These crowd and traffic settings were added originally by CDPR into game files in 1. 6 and accidently found by me. For unknown reason CDPR forgot to add it into gameplay settings selector. So I made that.
The game accepts. Bit more cars and people than on High. I haven't found any performance drop.
Incompatible with with any pre 1. 6 crowd density mods. Because this mode wasn't there.
