I have some nfs4 cars (Toca conversions by Krystoff) who suffer from flipped polies.

In carcad there's a triangle editor where you can flip the poly, but selecting the correct poly is very hard.

So I tried Zmod, but I can't select the correct polies either. The 'wrong' polies are in various areas of the body.

Any hints are welcome.

Some cars have parts wich have all colors of the rainbow (often antennes or driverarms). I used to calculate normals with fcefinish but than the whole car (HB part) looks bad. I'm able to fix a bit but not always satisfying.

How can I fix normals in Zmod?

When I try I select objects, surface, normals, calculate. But no result.

Also when importing the car.fce Zmod 1.07b crashes.

Ever since I started playing nfs4 (after nfs3) I wondered why the history section in the fedata wasn't displayed in nfs4 like in nfs3.

NFS3 has some different options to add picture's/backgrounds to the game.

I fooled around with the nfs4 .mnu files, comparing them with the.mnu files from nfs3.

Found some things but never succeeded.

A funny fact is: 

There's a history.mnu in nfs4 data/menu, it's not used but you can activate it by creating a link.

In game there's not much but an empty menu with a logo and some buttons.

There's a droplist for your cars, all greyed out but................

When you add a hxxxx.qfs file in data/showcase/art by the name of a car (f.e. hp911.qfs) the car shows up in history menu.

But I can't get the history text visible in game.

Must be some codelink....



Anyone digged into this?

Does anybody know what this file is for?

Data\FeArt\Vidwall\F563.qfs

It's not a vidwall for a car. I can't open it with nfswizard or fshtool

And I noticed the EA Porsche 911 has no Interior look in the showcase.

I play nfs4 for ages and only just recently I discovered this....funny.

Hi,

There are still nfs4 cars gone from the Web which I like to show and maybe share.

The plan is, I show pic's and wait for reactions, if there are no complaints and you want the car, send me a PM and I give you a downloadlink (readme's are mostly lost)

First car:

AM General Hummer H2 Off Road '04 by UCN Conversions & Viper

Hi,  After using the Detroit Muscle Mod.I noticed the lettertype in the menu's have changed. Turned out the Arial10b.ffn (In DATA/TEXT) was replaced.Does anybody know how to modify the .ffn file?

Hi,

Since there is a ''modern patch'' and some HEX editing (ghost files), has anybody ever tried to crack the career mode?

When I like the upgrades of a car, I seperate them and make it stand alone cars.

I would love see an upgrade possibility for multitexture policecars in singleplayer or pursuitmode.

I never play careermode anymore but it had such nice features like damagerepair and upgrades.

Any thoughts?

Hi,

Since nfs3 can be updated with Veg's modern-patch, I got interested in the game again.I think the dashes in nfs3 are great.I remember back in the days I played nfs3 (1999) I didn't have dashview, my graphics card didn't support it or something.

I found NightmareNMX made a dash for the '58 Plymouth Fury by Power city tuning team.

In the discription he said the car is availible at nfscars.net.But I can't find the nfs3 version.

Anyone?

Hi,

In the past few months I checked my nfs4 carcollection.In the beginning I didn't keep the readme.txt, but I always knew the author(s).I like to show you 34 nfs4 cars which I cannot find on any online source.So I'm looking for original .zip's of these cars.

So far I like to thank Remko, xj220 and MADMAN_nfs for their help.

The Honda S2000 veilside and Ferrari F40 Hamann are allready found.

It seems we have no access to any file (cars/tools) from the nfs series.I get a black screen and only top bar is visible.

After a bit to many gamecrashes I need some advice:

-Running nfs4 with EP pack from JimD.
-49 cars installed
-No profile created in career (so I didn't buy cars)

When I deactivate all cars:

-and select 49 new cars I get gamecrash
-or select EA original cars I get gamecrash

I tried all this with unique serialnr.s

ps: When I activate EA or original cars, the Corvette (serialnr. 19) is not selected.

Any ideas?

Hi,

The carmanager (by Jim Diabolo) is a great tool, but there are some things I don't understand.

(I have 1300 cars installed, they are all mixer cars and I never play online.)

I have made some carmod's (hsc files) with 49 cars each and saved them with serialnr's that do not match.


-But the serialnr's are changing after a while.I still need to check them.Why?

-And when I install the original EA cars (23) I get gamecrash.

-What exactly happens when I recalculate checksums? I did it ones and all my mod's got corrupted

I hope someone can help me

Found this great low poly Mercury Cougar on nfsstreetdogs here:

//http://nfs.onlinewelten.com/en/downloads,id206,mercury_cougar_eliminator.html

I got a feeling that somebody named ''stacker'', made a bad conversion to nfs4 found here:

//http://nfs.onlinewelten.com/en/downloads,id2963,1969_mercury_cougar.html

I also did a quick conversion (see pic).The car showed up in black and I couldn't change that

2 questions:

-Does anybody know the car or author
-How can I change the colors (it worked in nfs3, so why not in nfs4)

Looking in the screenshot archive, I found this:

http://www.nfsg.net/?topic=screenshot&gv=hs&type=sotd&date=2005-10-20

I'd like to know if I can download this car (in front).I can't find it anywhere.
