Death Race IV

This script basically brings to GTA IV some features inspired by the movie Death Race (2008). This project has been started months ago but was paused due to the need to create custom objects to use.


Download

v1.2 Changes:

Changed the way races start, reducing chance to error when creating drivers or cars
Fixed exception treatment that was causing player to b invisible
Added option to set guns on/off for each race
Added feature to speed up AI drivers speed
Changed to AI drivers steering helper method
Added feature to make AI drivers drive direct to checkpoint, used in custom maps
Improved race editor behavior and visual
Added option to duplicate checkpoint, useful when we need to add checkpoint between two others
Added feature that will try to help AI drivers perform loops
and other things that i can't remember now.

If you have Iron Man IV installed its interesting update your version to the last one (v2.2) to reduce chances of frozen objects issue.
