Looks good, do you just google for a nice pic and add the logo?

This vid looks familiar b.t.w, it came with the car I guess. Still very nice effect.

I have a big collection of nfs4 cars, and all of them have a vidwall.Mainly a good pic of the real car.

NFS 3 had a history section, so you could add more pic's. Too bad in nfs4 it's not activated.

I was close to get it to work but failed. Wouldn't it be nice to have the history info (from fedata in car.viv) visible in a historymenu with some nice pic's.

Pretty much I try to look for images that look professional or from the manufacture then I do the color shading and put the logo over it.  When it comes to vidwalls though Ryuji Kainoh was the best at that I tried to copy what he had done when it came to colors like he did a Mercury Cougar and made the vid wall purple so I went Purple with Mercury.  He never did Lincoln but he did do Cadillac which was black and white and since Lincoln and Cadillac are so similar (same founding person, Detroit luxury, etc) I thought black and white fit Lincoln too.

Hi Andrew L
what does noise mean by, pre-00' have no clue yet.

and good works on your walls bud?) what tools to you use edit the bmps can be many I know.

off topic now, how's St. Pete's weather?) I sure miss living down there or any vacations I been there yrs ago. to cold still were I live. how cold Oscar nights...  how's the days temps

have a well day I'm glad I'm busy to. for real. cheers nice Avitar bud 😎 🌞 ✔

Well MOST of the cars are pre 2000 but there are a few past 2000

I use paint.net to edit them been getting used to using this program.  I used to be a very serious paint shop pro guy a long time ago but my copy of that program is so old now not even sure if it will run on Windows 10 I got it with my 2000 era Window Me Dell haha I guess I could always fire it up and install it again on that dinosaur haha

Tampa Bay area has been hit somewhat seriously, I know the city of Tampa now enacted a curfew at night thankfully I don't live in Tampa so as of right now things are good on this side.  Weather has been so nice lately not too hot perfect for bike riding.  I am still working but I work from home I am deemed very essential since I work in IT for an insurance company and insurance is essential so it's almost like I am double essential haha.

I will give that MB a shot I haven't done a MB yet so this should be fun!

Edit Here is my attempt:

Is your profile image Timothy Dalton? (007 in the eighties).

Your vids are also pre '00, that's good news to me.

Are you also into showcase pic's?

Yep sure is, big Bond fan always appreciated Dalton after reading the books he's the closest portrayal to the literary character.

I can sure give showcase pics a shot haven't tried them yet but was thinking of giving them a try too

Nice work! I like them. I miss the custom vidwalls of the HS days. Feel free to upload them if you want to share!

Absolutely I can do like a custom vid wall pack or something.  I've been having so much fun over the past 2 days making them so I am still on a roll haha.  I am open to suggestions too.  I want to fix the Ford ones first tho still not happy with the logo need to get it shaded right.

Nice work, too bad not all these cars are availible for nfs4.

I really hope you plan to upload them.

I know I wish they were! But hey if someone is brave enough to try to make some of them I would be more than happy to let them use these vid walls.  I always wanted my 2nd car the Lincoln LS to be made for HS it really is an underrated/underappreciated car, same chassis as the Jag S-Type and XF.  I miss that car a lot!  Some of them like the Marauder though are available I bet that vid wall would look great with it! 

Greetings long time no chat!

During this crazy quarantine we've all been living in I decided to take a crack at making some vidwalls.  I posted these to the discord too. I used me and my friend's first cars as inspiration first then branched out to a few other cars I liked mostly Lincolns and Mercurys because those cars typically never get any love lol but thought some of you might enjoy.  I am still tweaking the Ford one I am not happy with how the logo looks I need the blue to be darker around the edges of each letter then it will be better.

Bumping this since I was talking about it in the discord.  So glad someone went through this.

Just want to add the 2 ships in "Star Wars" stage look like Luke Skywalker's T16 Skyhopper and Kyle Katarn's Moldy Crow:





Since The Moldy Crow was featured in Dark Forces 1995 and Jedi Knight Dark Forces 2 1997 I wouldn't be surprised if the developers put it in there as a nod to that series.

when do you think you will have time for this?

Yeah, discord probably is most "up to date", but also most cluttered source.

Thanks a ton Madman! Getting caught up now!

Joined thanks!

I really wish EA would do a remaster of 1-4 even combine it into 1 game if need be with all the original music and cars but high res or at minimum a 32 bit installer for them.

Actually there is OpenNFS3 project that will have all that

I just did a quick google search and found a youtube video and a nfscars forum thread but it doesn't look long, is there a main thread I can keep tabs on?  Also thanks for that info I didn't know about it!

Weird Chinese NFS collection

Supposedly contains every Need For Speed game on PC from 1995 to 2012 on nine DVDs.

Just saw this yesterday so weird.  I really wish EA would do a remaster of 1-4 even combine it into 1 game if need be with all the original music and cars but high res or at minimum a 32 bit installer for them.

Wow great stuff you guys found! I need to try out NFS Wizard.  Can I use that tool to edit the Crown Vic and Caprice so the arms turn when turning the steering wheel?  It always bothers me that they rotate in their seat or their seat rotates with them.  I was trying cars in career mode and bought a Falcon XR8 and upped it to the max and it did the same thing where the driver rotates.

Ok hopefully last question... any reason why the AI never picks the Lister Storm or Jaguar XJR15 when you do a full AAA grid race?  I did one and they were all McLarnen's and CLKGTR's

My mistake I ignored the savedata folder I forgot they go there instead of the cars folder.  Thanks again! I will have to check out the NFS3 one next I don't think I ever downloaded the addon cars for 3
