Improve your vehicles with the Vanilla Vehicles Expanded - Upgrades, a mod which offers a revolutionary enhancement to your vehicle management in-game. This mod introduces a comprehensive upgrade system that allows players to customize and enhance their vehicles using valuable resources.

Here’s what you can expect:

- Tailored Customization: Each vehicle in your fleet can be individually upgraded with unique enhancements, from reinforced armor and engine covers to offroad tires and cargo expansions.

- Impactful Choices: Every upgrade comes with significant advantages but requires strategic resource investment, making your decisions impactful as you develop vehicles suited to various tasks.

- Dynamic Visuals: Upgrades are not just statistical; they also change the appearance of your vehicles, adding layers like armored treads and upgraded exhaust systems that visually reflect your modifications.

- Diverse Enhancements: Choose from a variety of enhancements that boost speed, improve armor, increase cargo capacity, and more, each tailored to different vehicle types, from explorers and haulers to combat-ready tanks.

We’re excited to utilise what Vehicles Framework has to offer, and you can expect more vehicle upgrades to be added to this mod later down the line.

None of the Tier 3 vehicles are currently planned to have access to the upgrade system. That is because the Upgrade system exists to:

a) Bridge the gap between Tier 1 and Tier 2, making Tier 1s usable and valid in late game.

b) Slightly benefit Tier 2 to make them more specialized in late game.

Tier 3 vehicles are already as specialized and powerful as we like them. As such, upgrades won’t exist to make them even stronger.






This mod has undergone testing, but there may still be issues that you come across. It’s essential that you report any issues related to Vehicles Framework directly to Phil via the Framework mod page - not to me. I can’t fix these issues.

Q: Where can I find change logs?
A: Check change notes.

Q: Why are there no upgrades to flying vehicles?
A: Upgrading flying vehicles has not been our priority just yet. When more flying-related mechanics make it into Vehicles Framework, we will reconsider our stance.

Q: Why is this a separate mod?
A: Because each upgrade essentially brings a lot of kb of textures - each upgrade is the equivalent to a brand new vehicle, filesize-wise. Use this mod only if your machine can run it.

Q: How do I upgrade vehicles?
A: Simply select a vehicle and press the Upgrades button.

Q: Does it work with existing vehicles on existing saves?
A: Yes it does!

Q: Why no upgrades for boats?
A: For the same reason there are no upgrades to flying vehicles. Other than mounting a gun or increasing speed, there really isn’t anything new and original upgrades can bring to boats.

Q: Can I add it mid save?
A: Yes!

Q: CE compatible?
A: No idea. Ask CE.

Looks nice, maybe I can leave the mountain base to attack those hordes of scp s that are always waiting outside:buzzed:

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but could it be possible to add a heater and AC upgrade to vehicles? I feel like it's kinda dumb that my suped up car has extra gas armor engine and stuff but my pawn still will freeze his ass off in -15C weather

I def agree with not upgrading tier 3, but having some cosmetic options for the already impressive vehicles sounds cool to me. Very cool mod.
