🏳️‍🌈 He/Him, relentless Driver fan, I make mods and videos, among other things
Nothing can ever fill the hole they leave behind, but the memories will always be worth their weight in gold.💔

Yes! Bring on the misery!

Yay! I'm here for the rants. Well. Any time I open social media, anyway.

But I'm here! Glad to have you along.

Thanks! That's fine to ask.

Currently there's no release date. It's been in development for a decent while and I'm not setting it in stone until I'm comfortable saying when exactly it'll come.

Last but far from least, the mod will allow you to configure not just the wanted level when officers will begin to drive-by, but also introduce retaliatory drive-by's regardless of your set wanted level for passive drive-by, ensuring the cops won't just sit back and take it.

On top of that, when enabled, it ties into a whole new passive surrender mechanic, wherein by simply doing nothing, you may be able to try to surrender to the pursuing officers — be it in car or on foot.

This combines nicely with their ability to escalate the wanted level at situations they previously didn't react to at all, or did so with greater delay, making them more responsive to developing events.

A feature togglable through the config makes cops hold fire by default until you do something to warrant a response in deadly force, unlike in vanilla.

This can be anything from walking into an officer's perceived personal space, to ramming — or trying to ram them, aiming or shooting their way.

More like don't try to change my mind. :')

You have my deepest sympathies. Parting with family is never easy.
December 13, 2024 at 11:24 PM
Thanks! And yes. In any mission where you have a real wanted level, and it reaches past level three (and the police have confirmed you are in a building) it kicks in regardless of the game state.

Some missions to utilize fake wanted levels though, at times.

Driver San Fran mentioned, instant win.

The end result though, when it works, are some pretty rad police assaults that can whittle down your health or ammo, or both.

As of now the tac units only assault in waves once enough of them have pulled up, but I've also ran it with them assaulting as soon as any given unit arrives. Both have their merits.

The greatest challenge so far has been having them sweep the interior locations reliably, not wander outside.
