NFS MW - HQ Window Decals





UPDATE: November 15, 2025
- Option for 512x decals added
- The extra decals are now purely optional (will require Unlimiter to be installed first)
- ACT decal fixed
Thanks to greedymanul for the help!

These textures have NOT been upscaled with AI nor filtered through Photoshop.
A small part of these textures have been found and re-used in NFS:Carbon and ProStreet as vectors.
The rest have been faithfully remade or found in vector format from various sources, some of which are hardly available from a Google search. The result gives a resolution boost to all the decals used in the game, from 256 to 512 or 1024.






Always backup your files before replacing them.

1. Extract the mod file in a folder
2. Open Binary (if You don't have it: https://github.com/NFSTools/Binary/releases)
3. Choose "User Mode"
4. Choose 'Binary_Data_Install.end file' inside the mod files.
5. Select your game Directory with Binary
6. Choose your preference: 1024x decals, 512x decals, extra decals etc
(Extra decals will require Unlimiter to be installed first before this mod)
Link: https://github.com/nlgxzef/NFSMWUnlimiter/releases
7. Wait on Binary to install the mod, might take a while
8. Save files
9. Close Binary, and now you're done.
Have fun!

This made my cars invisible when I was installing every mod in Redux V3.

How can I uninstall it? I don't want to lose my saved game.

@xlukas - I genuinely apologize for deceiving
the mod should be installed from the Binary_Data_Install.end file instead.

How could I even slip this away? I am geniunely sorry, I promise I will change this in instructions
Thanks for the mentioning this btw, It really helps me.
In addition to that, I have other plans to update the mod in the future whilist trying to address other things but I can't promise when will that be.
I hope you will enjoy the mod till then
