Superpopulation (Pedestrian and Traffic draw distance and density increase)

NOW AVAILABLE WITH (AND WITHOUT) PHANTOM LIBERTY!

For point of reference, the approximate increase above vanilla is of 250% (Pedestrians) and 77% more (Vehicles), as well as to ensure more pedestrians are spawned across larger distances, this does not affect the 2D versions, only 3D, meaning if you see someone a hundred meters away or even people walking in the streets from the view of the apartment downtown you will finally see more than 4 pedestrians walking at the same time

First things first, your game will instantaneously feel more populated, but your CPU will start to sweat from the performance hit, this is a given as the engine is not optimized to render as many people as it would be doing with this mod, however, I M M E R S I O N comes really into play, making a true difference between the empty streets currently in the game compared to a busy and lore accurate Night city. Increasing density and render distance for pedestrians and cars.

The settings are set the same for when you are driving (Only traffic will be lowered by 7-9% for a better gameplay experience) meaning that the amount of pedestrians will remain the same. I have tweaked the settings in order to be as balanced as possible, not every time It's going to be peak rush hour for it to be drivable without Flying mods or driving only in bike (Although highly recommended to do so)

Having tested even higher settings, the engine will break and make that NPC disappear just from looking back and forth despite eating your FPS even worse, so these settings will make it the most seamless to have hundreds of NPCs walking on screen (Off-screen too!)

Also, I would like to clarify, this mod won't cause crashes by itself, however as it puts the engine to its limit as it will push any system, it can bring instability on highly modded playthroughs, for those cases it's recommended to run the mod but use population presets such as Medium or Low (All have been modded to accommodate as many pedestrians as possible and more traffic than Vanilla Settings)

Version 2. 2 (Including details from 2. 0 and 2. 1)

Readjusted density option parameters as following

1. — Low density — Higher parameters over vanilla High option

2. — Middle density — Middle ground between High and Psycho with more pedestrians (Recommended option for gameplay commodity)

3. — High density — Previous parameters for Superpopulation 1. 0 Psycho option with more randomness in the amount of pedestrians

4. — Astonishing density — Higher settings, not engine breaking such as Undrivable option in High, with improved settings over current High density and optimized to avoid CTDs

Includes optimizations for Dogtown and Night Cit
