The trackshape looks interesting But which one of the GT tracks does sebring replace? Looks like GT1...

It's based on Raceway 2 because it got 110 blocks.
Welcome back Jeff!! Nice to have you here again after all these years. If you experience any problems in installing the game or editing tracks, feel free to post issues here or over at the T3ED Updates thread. I'm available to help you with some stuff. If your cosmetic changes to the tracks are done, i can do the virtual road data for you. Things like AI speed, lane selection and other very important stuff. Like polygon neighbours, etc. Merry christmas and ttul

Merry Christmas, absolutely.  Yeah - I am setting up a separate computer running Win10 32bit to play NFS4, NFSSE, NFSPU, Carmageddon, I76 and I82 - it's going to take some time as these games are from the 90's and early 2000's - hard to get things to work with current tech, but I'm on it.

I'm going to try to get T3ED installed after I get the games working...it's been way too long...

For us nfs4 maniacs it's welcoming for us to have an OG member on the boat again. There's a so called Modern Patch from VEG which kinda runs on newer systems but for me it's very unstable on my Windows 7. That's why i'm still using the EP setup which still works perfectly fine like a charm. Many people from Discord don't like it because they play on things like SteamDecks but everyone has it's own taste ^^' But even most people here do use the Modern Patch now because it came with an hardcoded highpoly patch which actually supports highpoly cars in the game so basically now you can have the 1932 Ford Roadster Traditional Roadster by P R O in the race 16 times. Here's what i mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZN3OAb8k4I
EDIT: But this patch is also available in the nfshsgame.exe thanks to TsTg

This video ran pretty smooth

I'm setting up an XP machine just for games, only keeping it online long enough to get drivers (still trying) and then it'll never see the internet afterwards.  Having a bit of trouble getting network drivers for the machine, but as soon as it's up, I'll be back in - getting patches and everything.  I saw that there is a way to get the games to work on Win10, but there's so much you have to do, too many modifications...easier just to have one pc set for it exclusively.  I'll post an update as soon as I can.

I think Raceway 2...

Hey all, I have been going through some of my backups on my server from early 2002.  It's 2 tracks so far, it's one I made and titled it "New York Minute" and the other is Sebring - early alpha, I don't think I ever got past this alpha stage on the track...maybe I can give it a part 2, here some 22 years later?

I was hoping somebody could test the tracks and get a few screenshots?  I'm working on installing NFS here on my computer, so it could be some time...if it even works, I'll try to figure something out.

I found quite a few other files, like info on how to make the car.viv file sizes smaller, Mr WiLL's haybale road blocks and how to convert cars from NFS3/4 to SCGT.  Amazing how I was able to keep all of this stuff going from PC to PC then to an HP DL380 G3 rack server, then copied to a Dell 2600 Tower Server.

My Sebring track (shape) is complete - just needs the texture work to be done.  Needs a lot of that.  Shape is in place though...

I'm using Firefox 8 - don't even bother with IE anymore...not anyway...unless it's a last resort.

Sheesh... there's Chrome and Opera - and by Chrome and Opera I mean Firefox. (fixed it again, to reflect the hidden message...)

I'm using Firefox 8 - don't even bother with IE anymore...not anyway...unless it's a last resort.

Maybe there is a compatibility mode with Opera that you might need to use...just like IE8/9.   

I think I'll release the "Alpha" version of my Sebring track soon.  Needs a lot of texture work / help though.  I've got most of the track layout down to actual lap-times from the race cars, but still need help...  Who's in?

I'm here daily, sir - keeping it real

Ask Mr. WiLL - he very well may have that track.  What's the exact track name? 

Got NFS4 to work on my XP machine again - just started playing.  Racing on my "The Oval V3 Beta 1" track.  Going to release the final V3 in a few days.  Took a few days to get it working, but now I'm good to go.

Just approved the last one last night.  Once I get my game working on my XP machine again, I'll throw a few up there.  Looking for that topic from Remko that helped me last time getting it working.  Ugh...
