Nitrous mod on GTAO

[dirtybird78]

Not sure if you guys knew about this, but there is a nos mod for all vehicles including motorcycles. My sultan can now beat an adder. and I won't  even get into what my bati can do now as far as bumping heights. Ofc I would never use this for a stunt video, but im sure some people will. What do you guys think about this? it could make for major modding arguments and controversy

[Shifftee]

That's pretty cool, imo.

Races are more fun for sure..

It's modding, can't be accessed without changing code. Hopefully nobody uses it for stunting .

Yeah i knowed this, and i can even mod any car whit nos into online but now i replaced all off my nos mod because you can get ban and it also ruins the game for other players, and for stunting this is over powered, it may be fun using nos on bikes to stunt for fun in singleplayer but JUST FOR FUN.  If this mod starts to be used in stunting videos i would be really dissapointed. 

(GTA Turbo pickups in races can be more powefull than this nos mod so maybe its not that big problem but who knows)

You'd need a modded console for this right?

You can do it through save game modding AFAIK. All you would need for that is a USB. However from my understanding, the NOS allows you to exceed the top speed of any vehicle, in addition to raising the acceleration. The turbo pickup might let you accelerate faster than NOS does, but the top speed stays the same.

I wouldn't wanna see nitrous mod on stunts IMO. & I dont know if it's just me, but whats the point of these nitros(of course you will use it to get at top speeds) when it's already so hard to wheelie in high speeds on this game. Its not like GTA 4 where you can wheelie so high but in this game, at top speeds, wheelie is not high enough even for the ruffian so it's probably almost impossible to bump with the top speed(nitros) unless the bump is super low or the run up before the bump is sloped.. I might be wrong, correct me then.

I've actually tested NOS and it just uses the boost function from races, without needing to pick it up ofc. It does not exceed top speed, it actually cuts off once you reach it, if not it still doesn't do anything other than increase acceleration just the same as boosts do, so really this is just a debate about whether boosts should be used in stunting or not.

Now on the other hand if you were to talk about Twin Turbo, which you have to hex edit yourself, then yes that would be modding as it like doubles acceleration or something, haven't tried it for obvious reasons.

Well, I think boosts are legit. My wallride from Kaleidoscope is impossible without the boost pickup, it's the only way of gaining enough speed to reach the precision. If you don't remember it, it's 4:50 in this video.

So in creative situations, I think the boost pickup is fine. However, lining up a load of boost pickups into a bump to reach top speed looks really bad in my opinion. A lot of the YouTube stunters are doing that at the moment (Kwebbelkop, Hazardous, and others). It's a matter of judgement, but I think it should only be used to do stunts that are impossible without it.

I agree, it's a feature of the game like Franklin's ability and is ok by me. unless the spot is possible without it or using 50 of them to reach top speed like a lot of youtubers, as you said .

Wanna stunt later? I want to help you make that grind tutorial .

   I found out about this nitrous mod from a friend on psn about a month ago, He modded my sultan with nitrous and custom plates ( the name I wanted was reserved on the ifruit app) Yes, it's done with a pc/usb. He said he takes it from single player mode and puts it online,although I don't remember it being in sp. I've done everything in V, includind getting the platinum trophy/achievement(bragging ) so I have no idea where he finds it. imo, it's not the same as turbo pickups. When you hit the horn (R3) it goes on. You can hear the nitrous and it lasts about 8 seconds. It takes a few seconds to recharge aswell, before you can re-use. And somtimes it gets stuck on. I think it last longer than a regular turbo pickup, and ofc it's unlimited use.

   I love using it for free roam fun or races (many players seem to have it)  but I don't hit nos in a race unless others are using it too. However, I definitely DO NOT agree with this mod being used in stunt videos since it is a mod. But legit turbo boosts, should be ok. If you set up a race in the race creator and place turbo pickups before a bump,that's legit imo. But for the nos mod, you have to go on a pc and change code, and it's not naturally part of the game. Meaning, you can't normally load up story mode, hop in a car and hit nos..it's a mod, bottom line. Just like it's not ok to boost in SA using sobeit or w/e, it's not ok to unnaturally boost in V. That's just how I see it anyway.

PS. Damnit I wish SS and Slayer were on psn

Hopefully you can get it for PC when it's released .

Oh I'll be there day 1, with a gamepad ofc

Oh, and I found that if you repeatedly tap the nitrous button (horn) you can maintain max speed for as long as you like. I set 2 world records back to back with this method on "Route 68" and "Taking off". I realise I cheated though, still fun beating other cheaters
