First of all: Wonderful ’09 to all the forum members!

Since I got hold of the HAJAS Extreme Realism mod for MOHA, I wanted more of my games to be more realistic. I would really love to do modding myself, but have no idea where to start. I’m willing to learn, and I really want to. I’m a graphic designer and had my first pc in 1988, so I’m quite up to date on pc’s.

My idea:

I’m one of the few people that really liked the NFS Pro-Street Series, because of its realism, handling of cars, and the damage modeling.

I bought the newly released NFS Undercover, and once again EA went back to the old format of their NFS games (Street Racing/Cop Chases).

My forte is simulators (Plane and cars) and one thing I don’t get is why is all flight sims realistic, but rarely cars sims. I do have a lot of racing sims, and some are truly realistic, BUT it is motor RACING, and the NFS series is more of a DRIVING experience.

The big problem is…. All the NFS titles (accept Pro-Street) the cars can drive at unimaginable speeds into walls/bustops/cars etc and will just carry on and I hate hate and once more hate it. There are certain challenges in Undercover tough (Highway Battle and when you steal cars) that damage/totalled can occur on your vehicle but I want it all the time!!!!

Now…

1. Is it possible to have the damage during all the races/challenges

2. Is it possible to use Pro-Street damage modeling in Undercover since both titles where developed by EA and Blackbox?

3. I’m not really worry about the look of it(dents/scratches), but I DO want my car to break when I smash at 200mph into another car/wall

Any help regarding this would be highly appreciated

happy new year to you too!

I always want to mod NFS to add back traffic to the MP like the old titles of the series, but what i know, no one SDK was released...

This is sad because to mod a game without a SDK/Modtools is aside very difficult, also very limited...

So without this kind of thing, you probably will not be able to do what you want...

anyway, take a look in the config files, maybe those vars are open there, so try to change them and see if have any effect...

good luck!

Thanks, I'll play around with config files, I just might crack it!!

Which NFS titles to you have?

all until most wanted plus a "generic" version of Undercover that I still didn't had time to even test it...
