Thanks for this, I always thought that the cars on the sims 3 were very fast, especially the more expensive ones.

PS: You are the first person I see who managed to change the speed on something like that. Do you think it is possible to increase the speed of the running for vampires ? For a supernatural being famous for being fast, their running on Sims 3 is much more for cosmetics than to be really useful.

Nice! The face-melting speed of Sims 3 cars have always been something I've despised, but figured it was unfixable since I've never seen a mod... Thanks!

I'm a newbie modder, but in a while, I might be able to bang occults with a hammer and tune some crap.

i used to make dumb mods when i was bored, next time i'm bored i'll make a new mod.

You're welcome, more Quality of Life mods will come out later, but that will take a while as even between this mod and Live Longer was a long time.

Thank you for the update! But I wonder if ITF vehicles would slow as well as normal cars because it ran like F1 racing cars in an older version.

Yeah i dont play with ITF, also the differences in the new version are a higher global speed multiplier and the slowest class (Sloppy Jalopy, Big Lemon etc) has a very much lower speed kind of as an incentive to make players use even barely faster vehicles like the Vorn pickup truck and such, this main mod was also from a time i ripped mods without asking, sometimes getting them in the modern day like FKMN, but i might look for ITF vehicle classes in the future but until then, im up for grabs and suggestions

EDIT: hey look i found the stuff! i'll also probably add more stuff to the mod too making the rips my own! i found a lot of classes too like one for the Renaut Twizy and now service vehicles!

There's another slow down cars mod - if I have that I probably should not download this one to avoid conflicts? Although maybe this more updated one means it may be better as time goes since you are updating it consistently

until i make a better version that uses the usual 25 meter per second speed, i recommend that you use that mod or something besides the fact that it doesnt affect the bwan speedster.

finally read this and uhh, i am not the first person to modify any speed or something, i also cant find an easy way of changing vampire's running speeds. if i understood correctly occult speeds and anims are either hardcoded and/or a pain to edit

hi people, i apologize for bumping this up lists or something. this mod as of right now is my most popular mod and trust me, it will get much better

so, what do i plan to do? well, i will make this a completely unique mod with variable speeds for each class, acceleration will be of a realistic variety and such. so for instance, the wornado triage will go maybe 25 meters per second but the one and only margaret will go like 30, both with acceleration being like 6 or 10 each or something. this will also become the first car-related tuning mod to affect ITF vehicles and whatnot. i have been putting off on this for a while though, so stay tuned
