Mods
- While the modding community may be considerably smaller than its successor, Heat, Payback is moddable; there is a wide variety of mods ranging from gameplay enhancements to car modifications.
- All mods are available from NexusMods and require Frosty Mod Manager (some mods require the Beta version of Frosty).
- There is a tutorial on how to add your custom decals. While this is a Heat-centric guide, the author has mentioned it may work on Payback.
Payback has multiple mods that improve or change the game experience.
UNITE Payback
- Same Unite experience as with Heat.
- Adds many improvements to the game, including stance, handling, visual and gameplay improvements. It also overhauls the upgrade system.
- Extended stance and handling overhaul are separated from the main mod.
Realistic shadows, no fog, no vignette
- Introduces PCSS shadows, removes fog and vignette
Use realistic shadow no fog no vignette[6] |

NFS Payback Cinematic Tools

- I own the game in Origin and other languages except Russian are absent. And as stated in the previous reference, this should not apply to Steam version, as I have a copy of NFS Heat on Steam and all languages on it are available.
