Use a HEX editor to open the locked VIV file. On the very top is this line:
42 49 47 46 00 4E 06 88 AA AA 00 12 00 00 01 5E
Change it to:
42 49 47 46 00 4E 06 88 00 00 00 12 00 00 01 5E

NFS Wizard should be able to open it up now.

Damn that was what I was looking for, many thanks.

I already looked with a HEX editor at those files but couldn't find what I was looking for.

High Stakes sorry.

There are some like this car: https://www.nfsaddons.com/downloads/nfshs/cars/lamborghini/259/lamborghini-lamborghini-countach-s5000.html

Can't open it. Tried VivMagic and it could't extract it.

Hy,

so I've read there are ways to change IDs with some tools but NONE of them work for me.

Is anyone here who can nudge me in the right direction to change the ID?

I've tried the Car Checker Tool and Serial Number tool and both of them do not work. The first one always crashes and the second one does just not open.

hi there what game Nfs3 or 4?
also the oldest cool program is called: By Nfs Wizard. get that that opens Car.viv files in Data/cars/an Pursuits/car vivs.

also get the Serial number lister, a small program shows you if you not having any Duplicate cars #'s, an so your game won't Crash on you. also there is a list some place that tells all cars in game serial #'s so you can separate your add-on cars from the Default games cars.
so I hope I helped you any newbie? therealdadbeard
cya around here.  maybe

I guess you didn't read my post xD I didn't have any issues with duplicate IDs just that ID20 is reserved for Pursuit cars which I found out afterwards.

Hy,

so the car has the ID 20 and on Atlantica it suddenly starts to get into the pursuit. Removing the car crashes the game.

Do some tracks have specific pursuit cars and they just load the one that has this ID?

Any idea where I could find such information and what to do?

Edit: Yeah some IDs should stay on cop cars, found that out FYI

Anyone got an idea how to get higher resolutions with the dx7 renderer in NFS4? I used dgvoodoos wrapper but then headlights in the nights are extremely flickering.

I tried the EP pack but somehow it doesn't work with the modern patch. Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: Am dumb xD worked it out.

This worked. now i can select up to 1280x960. There will be more propably at a later stage i suppose, like 1080p and so on. But the driver works good per se.

therealdadbeard, please try to set Type=voodoo in the ./drivers/dx7/thrash.ini and ThrashDriver=dx7 in the nfs4.ini and report the result.

I'm planning to refactor thrash init code, also I'm planning to rewrite the code which gets resolutions list. Maybe it will help.

everytime i try to use dx renderers i cant select any resolution. It says Bad Text Index. Game works finde but i get a black screen when the race starts but the huds visible.

New beta versions.
