Description

Make your own NPC car crashes with this Car Crash Simulator mod! Easily set your own crash options like crash force and crash radius and generate your own car crashes near the player!

This mod might also be useful for content creators who like to make car crash compilations.


Features
  • Generate NPC car crashes near your location.
  • Set crash force. The more force, the higher the chance cars will crash with more damage.
  • Set crash radius. This way you can choose from 3 different sizes (small, medium and large). With small you have to be very close to another vehicle. The higher the radius, the more vehicles will crash!
  • Make cars horn. Set option if cars should use their horn when in a crash.
  • Auto-pilot function: very useful when creating videos and don't want disturbing unnatural car movement of the player.

Requirements

To use this modification you need to have following requirements.


Installation

Simply copy "Car Crash Simulator.dll" to your scripts folder located in your gta 5 main directory, together with the requirements.


Controls

Press F8 to open the car crash simulator menu.

Via the menu you can choose your own desired crash options like force, radius, if cars should use horn and so on.

You can turn on the auto-pilot feature for creating videos without disturbing unnatural movement of player.

When generating a crash, you should be in range of other (moving) traffic. You should be either in a car or on foot. The smaller the crash radius, the more close you have to be to another vehicle.


Known issues

- Crash Force functionality doesn't do anything yet in this Beta version.

- Cars which didn't collide will get on fire / heavy engine damage.

- Sometimes crashes might look unnatural. Especially when cars are standing still.

- Sometimes an idle car might 'bounce', 'jump' or 'fly' up towards the sky. This won't happen when you generate a crash in good traffic flow.


Future improvements

- Fixing Known Issues.

- Maybe adding option to set type of crash (for example, rear-end crashes or out of balance crashes like now).

- Maybe some good requests being added to the comments section


Might be useful:

I am using other mods for more traffic (LS traffic mod), for having more vehicles to crash. I am also using driving handling mods and car damage mods. Not using these mods might affect the appearence look less realistic.
