VCMod is designed to make the vehicles in garrysmod just as good as the vehicles in any other game

It is meant to improve the game's vehicle's quality. Can be used in machinima, realistic roleplay, or just randomly messing around. After installing VCMod servers usually get a huge boost of server traffic and overall lift the server's feeling of realism.

Optimization

1. Lights are rendered fully client-side, with no entities - no lag
2. Light data for each car type is sent only once per new car type
3. Admin can adjust times of lights auto shut off if the car is left alone
4. Admin can disable the headlight option in the menu
5. Each player can turn off dynamic lights if too laggy
6. Each player can turn off each light layer one by one if too laggy
7. Each player can reduce the size of each light layer+ dynamic light
8. Dynamic lights get reduced in size and shut off when it's far enough
9. Lights do not render if far enough
10. Lights have LODs, the further out you go, the more light layers will turn off, keeping it not noticeable
11. Lights pretty, expensive-to-render parts will be replaced by dummy parts once further away
12. Lights will only render the pretty glow depending on how lit the vehicle is
13. Each player can turn off lights on their own if too laggy
14. Each player can select lights auto to fade outdistance
15. Each player can set his tire track fade time
16. Each player can set his tire tracks detail
17. Each player can set the draw distance for the effects
18. Each player can set which effects to use
19. Each light (and it's layered) can be parented to bones/attachments

Overall, I have not gotten any complaints about VCMod being too laggy, it is optimized as best as it could be. Some cars have over 2000 total lights on them, no noticeable lag even with several vehicles spawned.

VCMod is updated almost daily. Updates frequently bring new features completely for free. Tiny bug fixes are done in the background.

You never have to update VCMod, thanks to the Auto Update features. This does mean that you will have to have an internet connection to be able to use the addon, sadly.
