Performance car mods!!!

[ipconfig]

okay, as we all know gta san andreas allows the modding of cars, but they are all cosmetic mods, there are no mods that help with the car's performance (except for nitrous). I am suggesting that a new ability be added to mta where performance mods can be done. I was thinking something like this:

performance mods could be stuff like turbocharger, new engine, new intake, new suspension, lighter car body, etc...

all of which, when installed, would modify your handling.conf file in a way where when you disconnect from the server, it changes back to normal. perhaps it could use a handling.conf for each player on the server and it will be used over your handling.conf. not to mention it would somehow be only usable on the car the mod is installed in. mabye possable. mabye not. I am sure it could be done somehow. would be awesome for racing rpg's

yeah but rly not in a clanwar what so ever your idea about if you disconnect from the server that the handling.conf will be resetted is good

And im sure they could make it yeah . But that would be kinda cheating in a way , if others cant do the performance , new intake ect..

I think it is good idea!But there is one problem!Devs should make a menu where you can change your car!Cuz in GTA SA SP there is no such ability!

But anyway there is some bugs in game wich they have to fix and there they have to make first release!If they will add some more stuff the this will gona take to long time!

Programming such a mod shouldn't be too difficult: it just requires SA to refer to a temporary handling.cfg that you have downloaded from the server when joining it.

I think a better idea, would be so the scripter or admin, some one in control of the server, can change the handling on cars, for there server. But the only thing that is bad maybe a anti cheat, made by the scripter will ban you accedently.

I've tested nitrous oxide with a clock, and it doesn't make my car go faster.

[Robix]

It does!Maybe it don't give you more speed but it give you more power!

[Clerlic]

I've tested going from full stop to top speed with and without nitrous, and there's no difference. Maybe it adds weight or something?

[Brophy]

It just makes your accelerate faster

[epoxi]

Yes, it makes you accelerate faster. It also produces a (IMO) nasty motion blur and ruins your cornering.

What if MTA has it's own folder for all of the configuration files, then everyone would be happy. No need to be temporary.

that's what i ment when i said that i went from full stop to full speed, i tested it with those watches and stuff, and there was no important difference. (i tested it in LV on one of those long runways).

What if MTA has it's own folder for all of the configuration files, then everyone would be happy. No need to be temporary.

There is more variety if the handling files were server specific, and R* has spent hours working on a realistic handling.cfg in the first place, why replace it with an MTA version?

[rockstarrem]

What I'm trying to say is, have a seperate folder for all of the MTA configurations and one for the singleplayer. One unedited and one you can do whatever you want with. Anticheat still works.

i dont think this has been looked into but anything like this would most likely not be done by editting gta files

Oh, I see now. Yes, I think that's quite a good idea, plus it means you can keep server files for later use in Single Player if you like.
