2REAL - Shape the Future
Hey Guys, first I want to say thank you for your awesome support for 2real project!
This year I nearly spent the entire summer working on new exciting features for Traffic-Tool (2REAL Mod). This includes:
1. ''Soft-Body'' Crash Physics
Crash physics similar to BeamNG for Assetto Corsa, working for Traffic & Player Car.
Probably the most exciting upcoming update - Deformation will not be instant anymore, the deformation motion is visible, with working soft-body effect and force based crumble. Glass can shatter, axes deform, parts can fly off, all of this can be viewed in slow-mo in replay and also works online with other player cars.
2. Advanced Racer & Police Chases
Beside giving police better maneuver capabilities, I have been working on a new chase system more similar to GTA, where the difficulty increases over time, with different kind of police vehicle types. Police chases can escalate over time, with police bringing more heavy enforcements and trying different tactics to stop the player.
The racers that you can meet in singleplayer while driving will get a huge rework too. Currently they are mostly either too slow or way too fast, with the upcoming update they will get stuck less often and navigate through traffic with better planning. Also, if you race with a car and meet another racer on the road, he will join the race automatically, so over time you can end up in a huge racer train swerving through traffic.
3. New ''Modernized'' Carpack
A new carpack is in progress with more modern us / eu type cars. Also, while the crash-physics update will work on any car on the fly, its possible that this carpack will get updated further to allow for even more & better crash effects.
4. Random / Scripted Events
Making the world even more alive with events that happen around you. This can be anything small from racer getting chased or pulled over, people waiting at bus-stops or even entire lanes beeing blocked by roadworks for example. I dont want to spoiler too much here to keep it exciting, but I think you can dig the direction ;)
5. Traffic Tool - Online Traffic
A new way to play 2REAL Traffic online is in the works. It will allow you to host your own server with 2REAL traffic with all the features that you know from singleplayer. Also it comes with its own interface, making it as easy as possible to set up a server for your community or to play with friends. With Police Chases, Crash Physics and all the advanced traffic features from 2real Mod, this will open up a whole new way to play Assetto Corsa online.
All of the things listed above I have been working on the past 3-6 months, these are really huge updates where I also already spent a ton of time testing and optimizing everything. Some of the features still need more or less work, especially the online-feature.
Now you decide
I had announced that the online feature will be ready with the next upcoming update, but it is taking a bit longer than expected, and as I spent the entire summer on this I don't want to rush this feature at all - so you can decide, what feature are you most excited about for the upcoming traffic-tool updates? Depending on your vote, it might be possible to finish another feature first, before rolling out the online release.
Again, thank you for the awesome support, I really hope you enjoy my work! :)

This is amazing work Malice!
I would be very excited if this lag that makes my car bump into other cars even though it never physically touched them gets fixed. Personally, for me the other features have no meaning yet because my car collides with air.... But yeah, love to see all of them being applied in the future!
Great job! An option to activate cars that can race us at higher speeds would be amazing!
Honestly excited for all of it. The random unscripted events will increase the immersion that much more.
Super boulot !
Can you also improve the car logic like the no hesi updated one? Or better?
I would love having traffic get out of the way (move lane) when honked or we flash lights at them
this works already. If you honk behind a car it will speed up, if you flash lights it changes lanes (only works if there is enough space)
Scripted events sound fun, something like Drift Battles with AI would be nice
New car pack is cool. why not adfd the supra intercepter as police car or something would be fun if thats a thing thats possible. I really like your traffic tool it has many bugs but its still very awesome and fun. You put a lot of effort into it thank you.
I appreciate how consistent you are with updates. i’ve been enjoying the last update and can’t wait for what you have coming next. Now back to cutting up i go 🚗🚓🚨
i think the car pack would make sense to do before the soft body physics at least but hey I’m not a dev I just play games 😃
Insanely good work, I think at some point, the carpack with an updated license plate system would be awesome, so these generic kunos plates get replaced by some real german plates 😎
Thank you Malice lets start with a new car pack I bet it will be beautiful with dlss 5 and thank you for your amazing work you deserve our support forever ❤️
I would love to see the wheel bugs on the replay fixed, thanks
yes it will be fixed with next update
