Modding SHAR: Definitive Edition & Physics Fix (Release Announcement!)
It is with my utmost excitement that I announce the first initial release of my overhaul modification, SHAR: Definitive Edition, as well as the long awaited Physics Fix for running the game smoothly over 60FPS without the buggy physics.
SHAR: Definitive Edition - https://0ptim1zed.com/projects/shar-definitive-edition/

A quick overview:
- Extended Draw Distance
- Engine/Performance Optimizations
- Physics Fixed (over 60FPS)
- Expanded Pedestrians/Vehicles
- Graphics Enhancements
- Fixes
- High Definition Art Assets (Redrawn/Upscaled)
- Autosave
- Restored Content (Vehicles, Voice Lines, NPCs, Music, Gags, & more)
- Restored Console Features (Tutorial Audio, Reverb, Button Prompts, Wasp Shock Blur etc.)
- Additional Content (additional unlockables, faithfully placed NPCs, etc.)
- Every single feature can be enabled or disabled to tailor to the user
There is additional information on the website, screenshots, every feature is listed and there is an FAQ with any additional questions you might have, I would highly suggest checking that out first.
Lucas Mod Launcher is a requirement for this overhaul mod and the game must be launched through this.
There are still quite a few things that are work in progress but I was happy with the current state of the project so decided now would be a good time to release this.
Work In Progress:
- HD Mission Icons
- Additional Difficulties (Hard & Insane)
- Dynamic Lighting & Shadows
- First Person Mode
- More? (If I haven't burnt out by then)
I'd love for people to give it a try and give me some feedback or report any bugs to the discord. Keep in mind, it is designed to keep the vanilla aesthetic and is fully compatible with texture mods so combining something like Muckluck's Simpson Hit & Run Remastered texture pack with this mod can truly feel like the remaster so many of us have wanted.
Enjoy!
