Description

I couldn't find a high-res texture pack for vanilla Dolphin Cove that I really liked, so I decided to make my own textures using AI upscaling tools and/or GIMP. Nearly everything has been upscaled or remade to a higher res, including skyboxes and some night/weather textures, and some minor texture edits/fixes have been made to the track itself.

You can get an idea of how the mod looks in-game via this video I threw together:

NFS4 is an old game but combined with recent modifications to it, it can actually get pretty demanding. Here's some things you will probably need for a smooth experience.

1) Run on VEG's Modern Patch.

- a) Modern Patch is CPU intensive, so it's probably best to have a CPU from within the last ten years.

- b) I'm not sure Modern Patch was meant to run on systems older than Windows 10, which is what I run. YMMV with older OSs.

2) A decent GPU with (probably) at least 256 MB or more of VRAM.

Instructions

1) Make a backup of your Coastal folder found in [your NFS4 installation directory] -> Data -> Tracks.

2) Unzip my mod somewhere and cut/paste the files from my mod's Coastal folder into your installation's Coastal folder. Overwrite all when prompted.
