HIGHPOLY Fix for nfshsgame.exe and separate traffic patch

ello guys,

This is the Retro Racing Point discord server. There are people overhauling nfs4 entirely. TsTg, the main developer of this project, has made a highpoly fix for the Stock Pack/Expansion Pack nfshsgame.exe. He's also involved in shortening track loading times, altering driving physics (not my personal taste of fix) and he's also bringing back interactive music in nfs4 with many other dudes.
But here's the highpoly patch. Unfortunately, he didn't use Jonath's traffic .exe patch (which lets you have 8 traffic cars when having full racing grid (not in pursuit though). I'll attach that one here, too. But be aware that Jonath's traffic patch unfortunately uses 1 CPU core. You'll have to use something like CPU Priority Saver to use more cores.
PS: Well, unfortunately i can't upload the highpoly patch, because it's too "large" xD (2048KB). Maybe you search yourself through the discord server. The patch should be pinned in #high-stakes-mods
EDIT: Since now the limit of file size has been increased, i can attach here the highpoly patch initially made from VEG converted over to the nfshsgame.exe by TsTg

Thnx for letting us know. Do I need to download the discord app first? Don't you think TsTg will upload this patch here on addons sooner or later?

You know, i asked him if i can share his work here, but he refused that, idk why, maybe he doesn't want to publish "unfinished work", for me it's pretty stable though. If you want to get informed, i can inform you when he wants to publish it (which he actually did when sending the files over Discord ^^'). But i just think that he wants to improve it before he shares it. So i won't betray him And yeah if you want to follow this project, you should install Discord and check out the high-stakes-mods channel on this server
EDIT: But i will ask him to share it here if it's finished.

You can use the web version of the app if you're on desktop

Sounds great! Is this different from the high poly fix from 2000/2001-ish? Is this open-source? Will there be Linux-compatibility via WINE?

Yes this is completely different than the patched menu files from back in the day. This patch is very similiar to Veg's patch, but it's for the nfshsgame.exe.
I don't know if it's open source.
As far as i know, WINE should be able to handle several windows based applications. I'm not sure though how good it is at this.
