What this mod does

Adds 3D animated walking pedestrians to GRAND CITY PARKWAY (FREEROAM). Sidewalks, plazas and intersections come alive with people, turning the empty streets of the map into a believable city scene.

Think of this as the population layer for Grand City Parkway. The mod tells the 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App) where pedestrians should appear and how they should move; the App takes care of the animations, density tuning and live tweaks while you drive.

Recommended App features for this map

Once installed, the 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App) takes over runtime behavior — spawning, animation, density, tuning. On Grand City Parkway, these features pair especially well with the mod:

Animated Pedestrians — the 3D walking characters that this mod spawns across Grand City Parkway are driven by this system.
Walking Mode — step out of the car and walk around — works on Grand City Parkway the same way it works in the rest of the world.
Performance Presets — if you run a busy car build, switch to a lighter preset — important on long open maps like Grand City Parkway.

About Grand City Parkway

- Thank you for your support on patreon.com/expanda_ac - Grand City Parkway is a fictional recreation of Huston, Texas Parkway Ring Roads for Assetto Corsa - made by ExPanda. The map consists of 6 super detailed city ringroads, that are visally inspired by the ringroads of Huston Texas. The roads are different themed, with scenes switching from beach drive, to suburbs, to inner city centre. Generally the map is meant for city drifting or parkway traffic driving, while offering a lot of interesting places and routes to discover.

How to install

Install 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App) 1.6 or later (drag the App package into Content Manager).
Install the base map: Grand City Parkway.
Place the included pedestrian.json (and traffic.json if you also use the traffic mod) into the track's /data folder (e.g. assettocorsa/content/tracks/grand_city_parkway/...).
Launch Assetto Corsa, load the track in Practice mode, and open the 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App) in-game.
Adjust pedestrian density and behavior live from the in-game phone UI.

Things people ask

Does this mod require the 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App)?

Yes. The traffic and pedestrian behavior is driven by the 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App). The mod ships the spline data; the App spawns and animates the AI at runtime.

Can I run this without a steering wheel?

Yes. The mod runs on top of standard Assetto Corsa — keyboard, gamepad and wheel are all supported. AI behavior on Grand City Parkway is identical regardless of input device.

How do I update the mod when a new version is released?

New versions usually drop the same JSON files into the same /data folder as the previous version. Replace the existing files and the 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App) will pick up the new spline data on the next launch.

Does this work in multiplayer?

Traffic and pedestrian behavior is a client-side overlay — other players need the same mod and 2REAL Traffic Tool (2REAL App) version to see the same AI. For dedicated server setups, see Online Mode for compatibility notes.

Do I need the base map for Grand City Parkway?

Yes — this mod adds traffic/pedestrian data to an existing map, so the base map has to be installed first. See the install section above for the link to the map.
