Renegade’s Traffic Improvement 2024

RTI 24 is a mod which was originally founded in 2018 as an improvement of the default Mafia freeride. The default version edited a traffic density, added cops and gangsters to the country, changed a look at Tommy’s character. Mod also edited a car names and their mentiones in storyline. After approximately 6 years I edited the modification and I’m planning to release a final version of my mod. The modification is designed for 1.2 version of Mafia in czech, german and english localization.

The final version will contain:

  1. Increased a traffic density and pedestrians – all of cars in most of colours, also it will be added a pedestrians from missions and from character menu, will be added parked cars at different places in whole city especially at parking lots
  2. Camera improvement (default for 16:9 resolutions)
  3. Real car names and their mentiones in missions
  4. Added banner „Welcome to Lost Heaven“ in countryside in city exits
  5. If I learn to script I want to revive the city with adding the NPCs, eventually I can open the locations from story missions in freeride (but it will take a long time)

I added all of cars to the scene except racing cars and prototypes (only Manta is included), I coudn’t achieve to add all of colours, but most of them is included. I increased a density of pedestrians, added new NPCs, there are more of enemies and also detectives which help the policemen.

The camera and look at the character is improved against the default 2018 version where were a stretched display corners because of high values of FOV. The actual version of FOV is 90 degrees with using of Widescreen Fix. This fix is designed for 16:9 resolutions, but it could be edited in editors.

Real car names are changing the fictive ones from default Mafia. So you can’t see Falconer but Stutz or Lassiter but Cadillac. I changed mentiones about cars in missions, so you can see „Go and steal Cadillac“ instead of Lassiter. Mod is working on 1.2 version and is designed for CZ, EN and DE localization.

I added a banner „Welcome to Lost Heaven“ to the countryside which is known from beta version of the game. Banners are located in New Ark and Works Quarter exits where is located also car wreck and garbage cans.

Project Upscaled continues so my work is in progress now.

In conclusion I would say that I have a scripting in my plans, because I want to add NPCs from missions to the freeride and open a locations from storyline. It takes a lot of time, wish me luck.

First I release a version with a new pedestrian setup with parked cars and new textures and then I will focus on the scripting.

Changes in Traffic Improvement:

Now is lower cars density in day countryside/night city and countryside.
I improved cars spawn and despawn point/location.

You can see new logos at taxis and Crazy Horse

Logos were transparent until I upscaled them, but I removed background and make them transparent again.

Sending some pics from my latest work with textures:

New license plate for cars taken from remake - there will be 16 types of plates totally - other size, other number, other letter

Faces are done with Photo AI face recovery effect

What is almost finished: road, grass, trees, skies, cars and characters textures.

So that's all for today. I'm really busy and I'm trying my best so I will hope that you will enjoy my mods later.
I want also release a new demonstration video, but I must rework more of textures.

Thanks for watching my channel or site here.

Hi guys, the first 50% of RTI is done. I mean traffic and pedestrian setups. It remains for now just add cars in parking lots and places in city/country. Now I focus on upscaling.

EDIT: Now I focus on upscaling textures for RTX Remix, I tried to upscale texture to 1024p (1024x1024 max) but those textures looked horrible in game... so therefore I focus on texture upscaling for RTX Remix from PashOK, because there are no RAM limits only for VRAM, but I wanna make 1K-3K texture pack which will include almost all textures from the game.
