📋 About This Mod

No Overpowered Racers Online (Unite Remix and Others)

Compatible with vanilla and mods like Unite, Heat Remix, and Ultimate. Online & Offline. Contains changes to Racers.

This mod was created for those that think Easy is too easy, Medium is too hard, and Hard needs less rubber banding.

If you want a version of this mod but for Cops then check out the following as well:

==== Important Vanilla Notes ==============================

These Vanilla notes apply to this mod as well. If you did not know "Vanilla" means unmodded.

The AI performs A LOT better if you are not in the top three positions 30 seconds into a race.

The AI becomes worse at driving when there is no player within 200 yards (This mod ups it to 400).

All AI Racers have their own custom car, because of this some specific AI Racers will be noticeably faster or slower than others.

The AI can be very inconsistent. Sometimes something such as hitting another vehicle will throw off the AI for the rest of the race.

The AI reverts to Vanilla Easy if there is no player within 400 yards for a few seconds. This happens regardless of mods used and difficulty chosen.

==== What each Mod File does ==============================

---- 1) No_Overpowered_Racers_All_Difficulties_Balanced.fbmod (Choose only one!) ------------

The offset and pacing skill of AI Racers on Easy difficulty is now higher.

The offset and pacing skill of AI Racers on Medium difficulty is now slightly lower.

The offset and pacing skill of AI Racers on Hard difficulty is now lower and removed OP NOS.

Offset and pacing consist of the AI Racer's max speed and skill when taking curves.

Increased the human detection radius of the AI Racers from 200 yards to 400 yards.

The AI begins driving worse when no human is within its detection radius.

This change will help prevent that a little longer.

A frequent complaint for NFSH is that Easy is too easy and Medium is too hard.

This mod was made to help bridge the gap between the three difficulties a little more.

This mod removes the OP NOS that AI Racers have in Hard mode.

This mod DOES NOT remove AI rubber banding, but it does help slow it down (on Hard mode).

Make sure this mod is lower on the Frosty Mod Manager list so it takes priority over other mods that effect Racers.

---- 2) No_Overpowered_Racers_All_Difficulties_Plus.fbmod (Choose only one!) ------------

Same as above. Refer to the Difficulty Comparison below for differences between this version and Balanced.

==== Difficulty Comparison ==============================

This is just a visual representation of how I think each difficulty feels from one another.

VE----------------------------VM------------------VH

-------BE----------BM----------------------BH--------

-------------PE----------PM----------PH--------------

VE---BE--PE----BM-PM-VM----PH--BH---VH

==== Compatibility ==============================

Unite 3. 5. 7

Heat Remix 1. 72

Ultimate Patch: 3. 5. 1

Heat Evolution 1. 1

Heat Gameplay Improvements 1. 3

There is a good chance this mod will also be compatible with future versions of those mods.

This mod is likely compatible with most other mods as well.

==== Possible Questions ==============================

Will I get banned for using these mods Online?

Highly unlikely as the game's last update occurred on 2020 (minus the server update on 2023) and no one has ever reported being banned for using mods online since then.
