About this mod:-
This mod changes handling and physics of vehicles in GTA 5 to make it more realistic. I simply replaced the "handling.meta" file values with the "handling.dat" file values of GTA 4. 157 vehicles handling is changed. Vehicles weight, center of mass, speed, traction, suspension, damage, etc. values are changed.
(Note:- Even if GTA 4 vehicle handling values is replaced in GTA 5, the vehicles cannot have exactly same handling as GTA 4 because of some new added elements to the GTA 5 handling.meta file like "vehicle inertia multiplier", which is not present in GTA 4 handling.dat file.)
(Note:- Some vehicles even though handling data is changed, does not show body roll. Even though the same vehicles in GTA 4 showed body roll. For example:- Sentinel, Oracle, Zion, Huntley, Turismo, Dominator, Warrener etc.)

But isn't this the worst thing bout gta 4? Anyway nice stuff really hits the nostalgia even tho I haven't played gta 4
@NOTVAN0SS Hi, thanks for the comment and glad that you enjoyed. I think that this is the best thing about gta4 because the cars were difficult to control and unpredictable. So, that made the gameplay of gta4 more fun and added to the replay value of the game.
@Ethicat I mean it definitely rewarding when you pull off the perfect drift really good thinking
@NOTVAN0SS Thank you :)
Great job! Really feels like GTAIV physics. It would also be cool if you changed bike's handling data too. Because bikes were extra awesome in IV.
@DJ-LEXX Thanks a lot and glad that you enjoyed. Yes, Bike handling was also a lot more fun in GTA 4. I will change the bike handlings soon after all cars handling is complete.
Best one of handling mods I've seen
@Brent10ro Thank you!
Thanks, this is BY FAR the most fun I've had with a GTA V car mod, definitely the most realistic/closest to IV. Not to look a gift horse in the mouth but do you mind if I ask how far you intend to take this mod, are the DLC's eventually going to be reworked at all in the future?
@MJP79 Thank you! I am happy that you enjoyed it and thank you for the question. My plan right now is to change handling of all the original story mode cars, trucks, vans, bikes etc. I am not sure right now, but maybe I will change DLC vehicles handling too in the future.
Nice mod bro!
Hand clapz for you.
@ez clapzz fapzzz Thank you!
