-------------------------

Only beta content that causes minimal interference with normal gameplay has been restored. Some things don't have collision, this is intentional. Beta content is taken mostly from Sven, FGH, HAWAII_MAIN_PC, anything.

INSTALL

Copy all .BNDL files to the Need for Speed Most Wanted\HAWAII folder and overwrite.

Can you make E3 Geldy SkyBox to be Accurated in the game like the beta build?

I replaced the files in Hawaii and now it doesn't boot then I replaced the original files and it still doesn't boot. I don't want to reinstall because I have mods already installed. does anyone have a non modded Hawaii file?

Currently working on most of the cut beta areas, eg fairhaven homes/mine/connector roads. The biggest slowdown is having to fix the UV mapping as most of the UVs are not suitable for final game textures & materials. They were set up to use the generic dev texture. To do a good quality job it takes a lot of time, rather than just importing beta stuff to blender and immediately exporting it with minimal changes. There is also custom modeling work to do so everything connects up. The airport will be kept too.
