Essential Vehicle Improvements for Enhanced Living

This mod fixes surface normals and a vast number of other bugs on 128 original & early DLC vehicles. Every vehicle and tuning part in this pack features weighted normals on all affected LODs.

Common Bug Fixes

  • Small gaps between body panels
  • Badge materials using the wrong specular map texture, causing them to have a mirror-like reflection
  • Badge & grille mesh materials lacking a normal map texture, causing them to have a flat, two-dimensional appearance
  • Badge textures lacking mipmaps, causing them to appear jagged and pixelated from a distance
  • Lights textures being excessively dark and lacking transparency

Notable Bug Fixes

  • Sentinel, Surge, & Surfer: Emissive passenger door windows on lower LODs
  • Police Cruiser: "Obey & Survive" text on driver door being partially cut off
  • Emperor: Brake & reverse lights not being emissive on highest LOD
  • Bodhi: Swapped rear light functions & broken tow hitch functionality
  • Gresley: Mirrored right fender badge
  • Stanier & Huntley S: Outer wheel barrel disappearing when tire is burst
  • Granger (Stock & FIB): Holes in chassis on either side of rear seats
  • Police Roadcruiser: Mirrored NYSP seal on passenger door & grille badges not appearing due to material error
  • Massacro: Broken material causing wheels to be permanently white instead of colorable as intended
  • Vigero: Missing collision models for trunk or rear bumper
