For Contributors:

Required Tools

• git for Windows. Download
• git LFS extension to manage large binary files like .dds and .usd. OBS: .usda aren't binary and we want to see and review their content. Link
  • The repo is already setup, you just need to run git lfs install.
• Omniverse Launcher Download
  • In the launcher, also install Create, the main tool we use to manipulate USD/USDA files and develop the modifications to the game.

Installing Dependencies

• Download Underground 2 Widescreenfix and paste the contents in the game directory. NFSUnderground2.WidescreenFix.zip.
  • Modify the scripts/NFSUnderground2.WidescreenFix.ini with a text editor so WindowedMode = 4 and Skip Intro = 1.
  • Rename the dinput8.dll file to dsound.dll.
• Download RTX-Remix 0.2.0 and paste the contents in the game directory so the .trex folder will be next to speed.exe. Link (GitHub Login required to see the links).
• Do the same with Bridge Remix Link (GitHub Login required to see the links).
• And with DXVK Remix, but paste the files inside the .trex folder. Link (GitHub Login required to see the links).

Installing the mod itself:

• Either download the repo as zip and unzip it inside the game directory (replace everything it asks for) or
• Initialize a git repo in the game installation directory, add this repository as it's remote origin, fetch the mod files from the origin and switch to the main branch, all using git bash:

  cd C:\Games\Need for Speed Underground 2\
  git init
  git remote add origin https://github.com/Ekozmaster/NFSU2-RTX-Remix.git
  git fetch
  git checkout main
  

• At the end, just make sure this README.md file is right next to speed.exe.
