This mod includes:
- General Lighting Tweaks: Adjusted the contrast, brightness, vibrancy, saturation, and exposure of each portrait to achieve a more consistent look that accurately portrays each driver. (For example, Gasly's image was too dark and Russell looked too tanned, etc)
- Head Position Adjustments: Adjusted the placement of most portraits to match the actual height of each driver. As a result, eliminated the weird-looking short necks that made it look like drivers were drowning in their race suits. (In this case, drivers such as Gasly, Russel, Bottas, Norris, Albon, etc)
- Driver Transfer Compatibility: Ensured the above-mentioned changes do not break when a driver switches teams, giving you endless opportunities for immersive gameplay in long playthroughs of the game.
- Other Minor Tweaks: Cleaned up the haircuts of certain drivers (For example, Alonso or Perez) and adjusted the lighting of specific areas for certain drivers for a more polished look. (For example, Norris or Hülkenberg)
