Increasing number of cars/time before stream out

[Richard7666]

Is there a way to increase the number of cars kept onscreen before they stream out? Or increase the distance at which they stream out and in?

 

Thanks in advance. I'm new to modding GTA's and don't know the limits, but this is something I haven't been able to find info on.

It's not possible through mission-coding.

This is in the realm of memory-hacking. No idea however whether or not this has already been found.

I assume you simply want to see more traffic? In that case raising the number of cars in the popcycle.dat could help. It's the second column. The explanation at the top of the file should provide plenty of info, and it isn't too difficult to figure it out.

No, he's asking about the distance which they show/disappear, not the frequency or amount of cars. I too think this is a memory hacking thing, and would like to increase this myself. I think Sacky has done some work on this with his Limit Adjuster - I'll invite him to this topic.

Well I haven't really done any research on how far cars can go before they stream out, however I can manipulate how many show up within the radius, having said that:

 

0x430056 : (FUNC) ProcAICars

 

The float will be in there, unless theres a separate function for destroying vehicles.
