Need For Speed 4 Modern Patch - Donations?

[VEG]

Hello, guys. I'm still working on the other project, but I'll return to the NFS patching soon.

BTW, I've updated my Firefox extensions. Maybe someone will like some of them

Why does everyone seem to have topped off at $50.00 LOL? Patch is excellent and also you truely made the game portable so people can take it on the go and not even have to have the CD, Only need the Config.Dat file, You've included everything esle. I think you have a future in game making as a whole, You can make alot of popular PC games portable if your "hacks" work on all, No longer will people have to have a install disc to transfer games from PC to LapTop or PC to PC. Great work.

.. take a look at Stifen's screenshot here for example, you may notice the car's body 'reflective', the windows are 'high-reflective' (or 'chrome' in the best case), but the wheels shown in-game are always non-reflective or 'mat', even if in ZModeler the rims' polygons are being defined 'reflective', that's what I mean.

What I therefore ask for is if it is possible to allow reflective polygons ('chrome' effects) on ALL parts of the car?

I know there's a lot of people like NJ and many others(!) like me who spend a lot of time on correct wheels or especially on creating nice rims, but then it will not be displayed correctly (even if knowing that before) what is somehow annoying .. on High Stakes as well as on Hot Pursuit. I promise, if you could change that .. a lot more people would want to donate for this small issue, really!

As for me this would mean much more than any widescreen support or such ...

Hahaha those wheels would look so bad with proper reflections... I was a total n00b back then and indiscriminately deleted all the wheel's duplicate verts, so the normals are screwed up.

I wrote a very simple 3DSetup for Veg's modern patch some time ago. It was made for NFS4 but works for NFS3, too.
You can find it here : https://www.magentacloud.de/share/vy4glo5qkt#$/
It needs no installer, just extract the 3DSetup.exe into the game main folder.

I also made NFS 3 Setup for VEGs patch while ago:



link: http://xcx.4fan.cz/programy/nfs3-setup/

It is created in an old delphi and should be compatible with every windows (I wanted the feel of win95/98 era :3 )
I'm planning add some new things (advanced trash driver settings) which was added in versions 1.6.x in near future

edit: I added links for my nfs3 official addon cars with showcases batch and portable patch for TNFS:SE + my own OST rip; everything is on my website, link is above.




btw, i finnaly registered after months of lurking here

[JimDiabolo]

Nice, it is much better then my primitive program. Good work Keiiko

Two Questions :
- Is it planned to support NFS4 ?
- Why does need Administrator rights ?

[Keiiko]

1) nfs 4 will have its own logo, layout and so on, but i guess it will be similar code and im still waiting for VEGs version 1.x i guess
2) i dont know i guess thats because it is created in an old delphi... I think it has to do something with ability to run the game after clicking on ok run or something...

edit: I'll post source on github when i update it (advanced trash driver settings)

Thanks but how to install it??? Just replace in main folder???

Ok, I just replace with my install game and what I want said:

HOLY FUCKING AMAZING full grid of highpoly cars and not crash 

[MADMAN_nfs]

Basically yes.
Look on Veg's page at "How to install".
LINK: http://veg.by/en/projects/nfs4/

There is also the public link for the latest stable release.
LINK: http://veg.by/files/nfs4/nfs4_modern_patch.7z

The files that come in the data-folder are completely optional (only new menus).

MAKE BACKUPS!

I used this, on 3Dsetup from Expansion Pack and have "Path was invaild"

[nfsfan83]

Have problem I do it this:

1. Copy DATA and SAVEDATA directories from the NFS4 CD to a new empty directory.
2. Extract contents of this archive into that directory with replacement of files.
3. Done!

But I have new replace cars and tracks than play the game and have this:

AMF=5 screen.c(563) - abort message

Do I have must earlier instal nglide 1.05??? I can't see any 3Dsetup in Veg patch. Yesterday when I have normal EP install than copy Veg files everything will be ok.

I tested and again install EP, than copy Veg path than I choose DX9b. In game graphics options I only have 16 bit resoution, I choose 800x600, than back to advance graphics options to ON tripple buffer, than when I back to graphics options I have BAD INNDEX TEXT_0 and game crash with

AMF=5 screen.c(563) - abort message.

Also I have drops on fps, I use MSI Afterbuern to lock fps on 60 fps in game with full grid high poly cars I have this in attachment

 Hi Slawek, bud I just need to Say,.I never put the whole SaveData, folder,.from CD in my Game Directory, k that I remember cause Vegs' patch just says, add his. Data folder? Menus, is all I ever did? So maybe, that's what your problem might be? Yes I add my own tracks,an car's to Menus an Switch the Whole Data Folder over..
Yes, I used the EP to an Vegs-' patch over my setup
I never got any install errors,this time around,so I was real happy about that, last month. Hope you get up an Running good... an I wished they,?? Could ever improve the T3ed even more or make a whole New one,that's more Error proof or, Easier, to use,with better Funtions! That sure would be a Wish for me. An Have a Great New year, to Nfsfan83 cya around bro

Can't help you but my problem with VEG's patch is the drivers.

When I select dx7 in nfs3 or 4 ini everything is o.k. except bad graphics.

When I select nglide or glide3x the graphics are (very) good, but in race the graphics are slow and the game freezes.
And when I exit the game (with the button), I still need taskmanager to end the process.
