Hi, this is my NFS Undercover Mod test 2.
Before start let me clear this:
1) This is a personal project for now, its based on my tastes, visions, etc. Im not a Pro so the tools or Editors or Mods that i could be using for this are not so hard for me to use and toy with.
2) Dont ask what kind of Editors, Tools or Mods im using. That will be later after finish this.
3) Take in consideration that you could not see the pics and effects as i do coz impossible to determinate what kind of configuration do you have in your Monitor/LCD and desktop overlay. I recommend to configure you Monitor/LCD with: Red: 50%, Green: 50% and Blue: 50%. Your Desktop Overlay by default and if you use Nvidia and Ati video cards then set their colours to default and the same for contrast and bright. Im using a personal color,contrast,gamma and bright for my desktop and everything but always you take one screenshot or make a video it will be saved without it. The only way you can see everything at 100% as i do is playing by youself with the Mod Active so Pictures could give you about 50%75% of the real quality ( taking the things i said before about your Monitor and Desktop color ) so please do everything i said to gain more precision 80/90% . The same apply for Videos and playing using the Mod then 100%.
------------------------------------------------------------
It was tested: C2D E8500 4.2Ghz, 2x1 4GB DDR3 and Nvidia 8800 GTS G92 512 MB in SLi with constant frames 50/60 fps with everything in the game maxed ( only AA was to 4x and reso of 1680x1050 )
Version of the game: v1.0.1.17 ( it work with v1.0 too )

In the video first is the game original without the mod and the second restart then the mod.
This is the 2nd update and result of my work much better than before.
First pics are original from the game and the other is the new

Ok this is the Original Game Quality
Everything was maxed in the game´s video options. Resolution was 1680x1050, with 4xAA and the game version was v1.0.1.17.
Some or many peoples dont like that yellow filter all the time. The game dont have HD textures and its too opaque and the performance is very bad for many peoples coz this game like almost all NFS games are more CPU than GPU. If your cpu is slow then you have these insane framedrops in Xs parts or moments in the game not matter if your video card was good enought to handle it.
Then i started to playing with the game and this was my first result:
Later i did some others things and this was the result:
And now this is the actual work:
Remember first image is Original from the Game and the second is the New with the Mod.
Ok here in the game´s video options just one filter was changed and the rest is maxed ( with 4xAA only ). Resolution the same 1680x1050
Here a short video about this and watch it in HD 720p
For this Mod now you need something like this to can run it with smooth gameplay:
Minimum:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 or E8400 or better with minimum clocks speed +3.6Ghz ( +4Ghz would be the best ). Like i said this game is very Cpu demanding and without the mod it use like 80/90% of my C2D E8500 overclocked to 4.2 Ghz. With the mod active then it start from 90 to 100% of both cores give me some frame drops in Xs parts o moments :S the game start to bother when the frames are less than 55/50 fps so i RECOMMEND YOU AT LEAST to run this mod like me with QUAD CORES and it can be Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 or Q6600 ( much better this one ) or AMDs Quad Cores equivalents.
512 vram Video Card and i recommend you nvidia 8800 GT or GTS G92 series if you going to play at resolution of 1280x720 with or without AntiAliasing ( zero or 2x AA ) and some video filters of the game lowered one step or off. AMDs ATi equivalent for this case. If you going to play at 1680x1050 with +4xAA then i recommend you nvidia GTX 260 ( one SLI or Crossfire with old video cards that are or could be equivalent of that video card ) or AMD ATi equivalent.
This run without problems with the game verions: v1.0. and v1.0.1.17 . The v1.0.1.18 i will not recommend you coz for some reasons with that path the game lost insane frames and with very bad gameplay i dont know why. My game was locked to 30 fps all the time and less in worse cases ( with or without Vsyn :S what the f...) so unplayable at highest speeds. CPU was 100% with the mod all the time and without the mod a little less but the game still unplayable :S only with that patch. I will repeat again I WILL NOT RECOMMEND USE THIS MOD WHEN I RELEASE IT WITH THAT PATCH. I dont know if the path make the game more power demanding, etc. Still need to test with a more powerful PC to see what happen.
