Patches
Latest patch can be found on EA's FTP server
- Patch 1.2. Strongly recommended.
Modifications
Dragozool's texture mod - Many stuff retextured for a better looking city
Switch regions (play with EU-only cars in US version and viceversa)
If you plan to play with the Peugeot 106 and the Vauxhall Corsa in the US version (recommended if you plan to change FoV), just click on the previous link and follow instructions.
For European players here's Honda Civic and Acura RSX.
Then you can use the included pre-made savegame (to play the exotic cars) or you can also switch your game executable. Just remember that the game will often hang if you do the latter option without placing the relative cars files into the game folder.
Game data
Save game butt syncing
Template:Save Game Butt Syncing
Video settings
Widescreen resolution
- You need a no-CD executable -this is the only way- and replace the original exe
- Download UniWS and open it
- Set what resolution you want for NFS:U2 and point it to wherever your game is installed
- Patch it and (in the in-game menu) set 640x480 reslution
Multi-monitor
Same of widescreen
Field of view (FOV)
- You need ReLOADeD US crack, other version will have problems
- Download Racer_S fov changer and set horizontal and vertical FOV
- FOV changer has to be running beside game
Windowed
Wiccaan did a tool to make game run windowed
Download here but be warned: that's a trainer too, so stay away from functions keys of the keyboard if you don't want to cheat
Input settings
- To enable Force Feedback on an Xinput controller (Like the Xbox 360 Controller), see XInput force feedback vibration in DirectInput games.
Audio settings
Issues and fixes
Custom bindings lost on game restart
From Windows Vista onwards a particular DLL is no longer included in Windows, resulting in NFS:U2 unable to store custom bindings on the Hard Drive. To fix the problem, download dimap.dll and place it in the game folder.
Random Crashing on entering/exiting shops
Can be caused by multiple CPU's. Set affinity for speed2.exe to use only 1 CPU.
