Julien Regnard has released an all-new version of his Sharp Tires physics mod for Need for Speed Shift, aiming to improve the simulation’s tire physics.
The new version comes with plenty of changes as Julien is not just working on the tires but has also overhauled the brakes, FFB and more as listed below.
Features:
* This mod replaces all racing tyres in NFSS. *Not drifting tyres*
* It greatly reduces car left/right oscillations. Car feels more connected to the road.
* It makes steering far more direct and precise, mostly removing the feeling there is a controller lag.
* You need to be more precise and careful to be fast.
* reduces differential pre-load
* Reduces brake pressure as default stock brakes were already far too strong. Now you can feel difference between cold and hot brakes, and brake upgrades are more useful.
* Change default controllers setup for a better FFB
* Default springs are stiffer on most road cars.
The mod requires the latest version of Need for Speed Shift (1.02) to be installed, it works both with packed and unpacked versions of the game. Make sure to check out the mod???s readme file for more info and recommended settings to make most of the new tire behaviour.
Update: Julien has decided to stop distribution of his mod, the download is no longer available.
