NFSU2 General Modding Information (old version archive)

General Information


Car Modding


Tools you need

  • NFSU2 Mod Tools [ nfsu360] (to compile geometry, textures, edit wheel positions, colors, etc.)
  • ZModeler 1.07b [ download] (modelling program) or some modelling program capable of exporting to .obj (like Blender)
  • Some image editing program able to open/save .dds files (like DXTBmp or GIMP with the DDS plug-in)

Optional Tools

  • Part Link Helper [ download] MS Excel spreadsheet to help to copy parts easily: just select from the dropdown boxes and copy the results from the gray columns.

How do NFSU2 cars work?

They have a GEOMETRY.BIN (car geometry), and a TEXTURES.BIN (car textures) file that goes in the CARS\<carname> folder. Wheel positions are stored in the GLOBAL\GLOBALB.LZC file.

Some notes

  • Geometry compiler can accept up to 65535 polygons per part, but that doesn't mean you should cram models with a kajillion polygons into the game since you will have problems such as slowdowns, ghosting or even game crashes.
  • Textures are in DXT1 (no transparency) and DXT3 (with transparency) formats. Likewise with geometry, don't go too overboard with the texture sizes and use as little big textures as possible.
  • Don't leave empty part slots, it looks ugly as hell. Use the Part Linker Helper spreadsheet above to do it in a breeze.
