to download cars for nfs HS

[Geminiyo]

I know  basing on personal exp. that its impossible explaing to rookie something on forum. He need few punches about what exactly he is doing with it. Its possible only in live talk trough messanger.

Palmon it is possible to use addon cars, it is just that certain versions of the game, by this I mean like version 4. as opposed to vfersion to version 4.5 don't work with addon cars for some reason.  I also think you have to have a FULL INSTALL of the game on your pc.    Find an update online to version 4.5 and you should be fine.  Try download.com they might have the update there.

Seriously, what buck is saying makes perfect sense, it's as easy as making one new folder and putting the car.viv file in there.  Forget about the expansion pack.

[bucksavage]

I didn't even get into that because, I myself don't even have the Expansion Pack.

It's not like your repairing an automatic transmission or doing an open brain surgery.

guys am trying the bestt i could but the added car doesn't show up on the game ..........and by the way my nfs game is copied cd not the original cd..........game is wrtten onto another which i have not the original one.........that might make sense why i can't use addon cars .........anyway don't worry about this thread anymore.....i think i can't use add on cars........

[bucksavage]

it may.

[Roadstar]

I think thay maybe you might have installed the car in a wrong way. Please describe properly from start what happened so that we can help you in more delicate way.

[bucksavage]

that's a good idea

ok i downloaded the winzip 11.2 and then i went to download car and downloaded a certain car and then the winzip automatically opened and the files showed in the list on winzip i double clicked the readme file and read the instructions and created a new folder in the data/cars/
and then i went back to the winzip and highlighted the car.viv file by clicking once and clicked on extract files on the top menu of winzip program and then i put the address in there where to extract the car.viv file......after that i just started the game and went to single player game and check on the car list and it din't show the new car that i downloaded.........??

[Remko]

Well, that sounds like you did everything right... can't really think of a logical reason why it won't show up, :dunno: could you tell us exactly which car it was from this site?

[Lotec]

I guess it does make sense that you're not using a real NFS CD, but then again you can get a brand new copy of NFS4 on eBay for only a couple dollars

[Roadstar]

Do this.

Extract the car.viv on the desktop & then copy it to your NFS4 directory/Data/Cars & the folder you have created.

At least his game is not crashing from a serial number conflict

[bucksavage]

Good point.  Though don't addon cars not work if you don't have a full install?
