Saints Row 2 Juiced Patch

[Vangormel]

Not sure if this is specifically Juiced related but I think this is as good place as any to report this. I have a problem with vehicle camera not acting how it's supposed to on PC. The camera does not stay centered on the car's rear, instead its rotation always becomes locked for no reason unless I do an action such as pulling the handbrake. This is normal behaviour in the sense that's how free-look with the mouse or right stick works, but it doesn't go back like it's supposed to after a few seconds and it happens consistently for no reason.
To illustrate, here's the game running on Xenia and how the camera is supposed to work (Note that I have Better Drive By Cam enabled in both scenarios):

All I'm doing in the video is driving the car and looking to the left, and once the camera movement is finished the camera stays locked in that direction for a brief moment until it automatically returns to focus on the car's rear and stay put in the direction of car's movement, normal stuff.

Here's how it works for me on PC:

After a few seconds, the camera's rotation becomes locked for no reason, forcing me to either adjust the camera view back manually (which is annoying) or press the handbrake, which brings the view back and unlocks the camera rotation (for a few moments, before it goes locked again).

I tried tweaking the "VehicleAutoCenterModifier=25" and "vehicle_camera_follow_modifier=1.0" values but they didn't seem to change anything.

I'm trying this patch out for the first time and was wondering if anyone can give me some advice with all the settings, as I have no idea what should be enabled or disabled for the best performance results. It would really be appreciated.

My PC is pretty outdated, so if it matters, my specs are:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.71 GHz
8.00 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 (2 GB)
Windows 10

if the game goes hella laggy with default settings, just use ugly mode (pressing f3 in game)

Welp, now I'm crashing when trying to start the mission First Impressions, before the cutscene even starts. Here is both the log file from CrashDumps and the debug log file, since I'm not sure which one is needed.

Does the crash happen before or after the fade-to-black that happens after pressing "E" to trigger the mission?

- If it happens before, it's more likely to do with the mission script failing to load something.
- If it happens after, it's more likely to be an incompatibility with the cutscene rather than the mission.

Have you installed any cutscene or NPC mods?

It happens after the fade to black. It then shows a black screen for a few seconds with the mission name and 'LOADING' in the bottom left hand corner. The only mods I am using is the Juiced Patch, GotR and Made 2 Measure, and I'm pretty sure I didn't include any optional mods from any of those for NPCs or cutscenes.

pretty sure GotR is causing it.. Its the only modpack that incluses few cutscenes/missions files that are edited, maybe that its causing the crash

Even though I was able to start and complete the prior main missions without any issues with the cutscenes?

Some missions are edited for specific reasons rather than others, back then the mission "Red Asphalt" for example used to have crashes when u used any weather mod. For our luck, BandiG was able to fix it.. Maybe this situation is similar with the mission "First Impressions"

Never mind, I got it working. Turns out I hadn't copied the preload.tbl files from the GotR mod to the Saints Row 2 folder. Anyway, thanks to you and -SeaboundSaint- for your replies.
