All Overwatch Agents, and Racers.
After about 5 months and couple of weeks of re-development, and many pulled all-nighters...
I am proud to announce that your beloved car "game"mode has returned! And it's much better!
I'm not leaving just yet, but this update might be my goodbye to Overwatch.
No matter what, I won't forget what I did for this Workshop masterpiece that was also shown on 2021 BLIZZCONLINE.
I am about to settle on my own journey, and develop my own game.
OPEN HORIZONS UPDATE
What's new:
IN-GAME MAIN MENU
Despite the Workshop Settings returnal, as an alternative, and to keep the "game"mode functional I made an In-Game Main Menu.
REVAMPED CAR MECHANICS
The car now "feels" like driving the car.
For those who want to obey the law and drive responsibly, I made the Blinkers Mechanics.
Just HOLD DOWN Melee, and then TAP Jump, or Move Left/Right to trigger them (only when stationary).
OVERHAULED STUNT SYSTEM
Stunt system overhauled to Forza Horizon and NFS-like mechanics.
NEW CAMERA SYSTEM
You can now cycle between Chase, Free and Bumper cameras and look back manually.

Crashing means you have to start the race over.
PROJECT: STREETWATCH GOES OPEN-SOURCE
Yes, you can now fiddle with your own version of Project: Streetwatch script.
You can find the link to the PROJECT: STREETWATCH's GitHub Repository in the Code Snippet.
Updated the code with Truncated Version of Project: Streetwatch.
I'm still working on giving my "game" mode a new fresh coat of paint, before I'm off to my own and new adventure.
Despite struggling to get Overwatch 2 running, so I can maintain this gamemode, until I'm able to update the gamemode, I'm sharing the code snippet. However, unless I'm provided with a Tool showing me Accurate Coordinate Position, I'll try to make new tracks in the private build of the Basic Car Pack and rebuild lost functionalities with In-Game Menu.
My laptop is dying.
Can't find a job, to afford for new and better one.
My bro won't help me out, and always tells me to find a job, in a city where you literally can't find any.
Thus you won't reason with him about it.
"I can't believe we drove around all day, and there's not a single job in this town. There is nothing, nada, zip!" - Harry Dunne
I'm still keeping this "game"mode up-to-date.
Also decided to do something and add new car to the Basic Supercar Pack and make new packs:
2013 Porsche 918
And finally, released the Pickup Pack code, though only containing the F-150 Raptor.
Enjoy.
