Need for Speed: High Stakes - Supercharged Police AI
Tougher police AI, with special "super cops"
By fox

------
Overview:
------
Adjusts the AI acceleration curves for every police vehicle to yield significantly more challenging pursuits.

Additionally, the following cars are treated as "super cops" and possess much tougher pursuit AI:
Pursuit Camaro
Pursuit Corvette
Pursuit Diablo SV
Pursuit Porche 911 Turbo

Each track uses one of these in its roster of 5 cops when racing AA class or above.
As such, each race has one "super cop" making somebody miserable. :)

------
Installation:
------
Extract to your root NFS:HS directory. Be sure to make backups first!

If combining with Bonus Cars (recommended), install this after installing Bonus Cars.
If you wish to instead use this without Bonus Cars installed, please skip / delete the following folders:
DATA\CARS\PCAP
DATA\CARS\PHAT
DATA\CARS\PHSV
DATA\CARS\PSED
DATA\CARS\PSUV

------
Notes:
------
The following "normal cops" use a slightly modified Pursuit Diablo SV acceleration curve:
Pursuit BMW M5
Pursuit Caprice
Pursuit Hatchback
Pursuit Sedan
Pursuit Utility Vehicle

The following "super cops" use a vanilla Pursuit La Ni�a acceleration curve:
Pursuit Camaro
Pursuit Corvette
Pursuit Diablo SV
Pursuit HSV SV99 (if Bonus Cars installed)
Pursuit La Nina (unchanged)
Pursuit Porche 911 Turbo

These modifications do not affect the performance of the car in any way; only how the AI drive them.

If playing over network, do make sure all players are using this pack if you intend to play Hot Pursuit mode with AI present.
Otherwise there will be trouble! :P

Enjoy!

Expanded car selection consisting of official EA NFS:HS addon / regional vehicles, with additional bugfixes
By fox

------
Overview:
------
Adds official addon cars originally provided by in-game "Download Cars" functionality:
Aston Martin DB7 (A)
BMW M Coupe (A)
BMW M Roadster (A)
Ferrari 360 Modena (AA) - Full Showcase
Jaguar JXR15 (AAA)
Lister Storm (AAA)
Adds regional cars from the AU and JP releases of the game:
Ford XR8 (B) - Full Showcase
HSV SV99 (A) - Full Showcase
Nissan Skyline GT-R V.spec (AA) - Full Showcase (Japanese)
Pursuit HSV SV99 (A)
Unlocks previously locked cars for Hot Pursuit:
Ferrari F50 (AA)
Ferrari 550 Maranello (AA)
Mercedes CLK-GTR (AAA)
Mercedes SLK 230 (B)
Adds selectable AI-only "traffic" police cars:
Pursuit Caprice (A)
Pursuit Hatchback (A)
Pursuit Sedan (A)
Pursuit Utility Vehicle (A)
Fixes various issues and inconsistencies with vanilla cars (see Notes section)

------
Installation:
------
Extract to your root NFS:HS directory. Be sure to make backups first!

Notes:
------
The official addon / regional cars were edited slightly:
-- All addon cars moved to DATA\CARS (from SAVEDATA\CARS)
-- Using DATA\CARS allows AI opponents to also use the addon cars in normal gameplay
-- Fixed bizarre crash with FEDATA on each car if used from DATA\CARS
-- Fixed missing pursuit tags for:
BMW M Coupe
BMW M Roadster
Ford XR8
HSV SV99
Nissan Skyline GT-R V.spec
Pursuit HSV
-- Ferrari 360 Modena unlocked for Hot Pursuit
-- Ford XR8 designated as Class B (normally Class A, but car performs as Class B)
-- Pursuit HSV designated as Class A (normally Class B, but car performs as Class A)
-- Pursuit HSV renamed to Pursuit HSV SV99 (pursuit cars always reference model, and sometimes make; e.g. Pursuit Corvette, Pursuit Porsche 911 Turbo)
-- Fixed Pursuit HSV engine sounds (engine was using Lister Storm sounds instead of HSV SV99 sounds)
-- Fixed Pursuit HSV fog lights (lights were marked as indicator lights instead of fog lights)
-- Fixed Pursuit HSV vidwall (was lacking HSV logo)
-- Fixed missing Ferrari 360 Modena showcase stats vidwall
-- There is unfortunately only one of these, as opposed to two like all other cars :(

Additionally, the following fixes were made for vanilla cars:
-- Fixed incorrect interior colors for:
Pursuit BMW M5
Pursuit Camaro
Pursuit Corvette
Pursuit Diablo
Pursuit La Ni�a
Pursuit HSV SV99
Pursuit Porsche 911 Turbo
-- Fixed incorrect indicator lights for:
Lamborghini Diablo SV
Pursuit Diablo SV
-- Fixed BMW M5 reverse lights (lights were incorrectly placed, and now match Pursuit BMW reverse lights)
-- Fixed Pursuit Camaro tail lights (lights did not properly function as tail lights, and were a little misaligned)
-- Fixed Porsche 911 Turbo interior (an annoying white square could be seen on the spoiler when looking backwards)
-- Fixed Bonus Chevrolet Camaro interior (was slightly misaligned, and now matches regular Chevrolet Camaro interior)
-- Fixed missing interior mirror reflections for:
Bonus Chevrolet Camaro
Bonus Porsche

All cars are otherwise 100% vanilla as originally intended. No performance, visual, etc. edits of any kind were made.
They are also using stock serial numbers as supplied by EA.

The selectable AI-only "traffic" police were, however, buffed slightly (read: given Pursuit Camaro performance stats) as their default driving models were painfully slow.
They were also given generic non-branded interiors, since they are normally lacking interiors.
They are using serial numbers 45-48, which are typically used for "extra" cars, so they should be compatible with most other car packs.

If playing over network, make sure all players are using the same versions of cars and tracks. (e.g. this car pack)
Otherwise there will be trouble! :P
