[NFSU2] 8K HDRI Skyboxes





8K High Dynamic Range Imaging Skybox



This is NOT a TexEd .tpf mod, it goes directly in the game files.

I've been on the search for a decent skybox modification for UG2 but whatever I came across was just mediocre low-quality skyboxes, so I've improvised and therefore, this mod was created using HDRI Sky images at an outstanding 8K resolution to appear the best way possible on modern hardware and widescreen monitors.

This mod comes in two presets, one that tries to keep the game's aesthetic, another which is an all-night theme if you dislike the dawn and dusk settings of the vanilla game. Both presets have their own unique textures as well.

PREVIEWS:









Note that the sky colors will shift depending on which map zone you're in, this adds to the sky variety.

I really wanted to upscale the textures of the hotels and streets, a large part of the game would be wonderful!

I never thought this game could get this beautiful! Outstanding!

depends what mods you run with it i was using a texmod like Last Breath or HD Textures for Need for Speed Underground 2
and it would crash most likely a 3gb ram limit for the game or game engine can't handle large sized textures.

@Kvarkmeister It does not cause any stability issues at all.
