Description

Credits to the original designer, nfsfan83 for creating this superb high speed track! and for granting permission for me to edit all of his tracks!


PROGRAMS USED:

-T3ED Version 4.3.0.404 by JimDiabolo

-FSHTOOL v1.23 by Denis Auroux

-Corel PHOTO-PAINT X5 by Corel Corporation


Improvements by Zalcus20:

-Eliminated sticky walls.

-Better AI driving line and speed.

-Visibility improved.

-Shadows added.

-Rear view mirror will not cause crash. You can leave it on for this track.

-New replay camera angles.

And more!


Known Bugs (3):

-The rearview mirror will sometimes show visual glitches on some parts of the track. It will not cause a crash.

-In single race mode with traffic on and 0 ai opponents, the ai traffic only spawn near the start/finish line in either forward or backward direction. In all other modes, they spawn normally.

-At night, the cars' headlights will not illuminate certain parts of the track.



INSTALLATION

1. Africa v2 works on the Hometown slot. First make a backup of your Hometown folder found in your nfs4 directory 'DATA\TRACKS'. Then you may replace the files with the ones included in this download.

2. Don't forget to install the vidwall and track loading slides. After making the necessary backups, copy T10.qfs to 'DATA\FEART\VIDWALL' and T10_00.qfs to 'DATA\FEART\SLIDES'.


If you have the "NFS HS MIXER" (I highly recommend it) simply import this as a new track.


All set! Keep on enjoying the classic NFS!

    "improved" suggests there is a previous version, but I never seen it. Screenshots look promising.

      You made me realize that the original version was never released here at nfsaddons. It was available (and still is) on NFSCars.

      I hope nfsfan83 doesn't mind I posted this updated version here. I don't have an account with NFSCars...

    Looks really great. I was surprised that there were no problems with the visibility. :D

    I did notice one thing though. The course limitation on the left side before the finish is only visible from one side.

    One question remains, do you drive the night version at sunrise or sunset?;)

      That's a good catch.  Looks like I have to "update" Africa "improved". ;)

    Very shaky. Shakes the hell outta you at times. Hard to concentrate. At night you can see some blue triangles (missed poly or smth).  Still very fun to drive, beautiful scenery and bot intelligence. Man I'm sure you will have to update. Has great potential.
