Keyboard Friendly Handling Wheelspin Fix & Realistic Top Speed
> This mod is made mainly for "keyboard players" who often experience annoying "wheel spin when accelerating from low speeds". Since keyboard input gives instant full throttle, many vehicles tend to lose traction and spin the wheels.
> This mod adjusts the "low-speed traction behavior" to make launches smoother and easier to control, while keeping the driving feel close to the original game.
> It also includes "realistic acceleration and top speed values", so vehicles still feel natural and balanced while driving.
Features
Reduced wheel spin at low speeds
Smoother launches for keyboard players
Realistic acceleration and top speed
Keeps a mostly vanilla driving feel
Installation
1. Open OpenIV and enable Edit Mode.
2. Go to:
mods > update >update.rpf > common> data
3. Replace the "handling.meta" file with the one included in this mod. also don't forget to
take backup before installing
4. Start the game and enjoy smoother driving.
Credits
Realistic acceleration and top speed values are based on another handling mod by "brunodrl94".
This version mainly tweaks the low-speed traction to improve the experience for keyboard players.
