==============================================================================

A little while ago, early 2025, i started a very ambitious project: Transform NFS 4 High Stakes into Motor City
The reason? the lack of proper Muscle Car representation in Need for Speed left a bitter taste on me, so i just decided to get my hands dirty and work on transforming NFS High Stakes into a screaming roaring V8 experience.

Now this mod has been collecting dust on my HDD, with university and my job both going on at the same time, as well as other life priorities, i have
no choice but to release it AS-IS. So, you might encounter a lot of:

-Tracks that are still NFS4 / 3 ones
-Buggy sound when playing in Stereo mode (use Mono)
-Cop El Niño not replaced

There's a lot to do, and honestly i lack the time due to adult responsibilities :P
Anyone is invited to implement fixes and send em on my way.
The game can be fully finished, played online and compatible with controllers / steering wheels
I do recommend however, setting the minimum dead zone to 65% on throttle and steering for controllers. Anything else works fine, even keyboard.


Anyways i hope you, dear user, enjoy Motor City. Again, if you're a modder, let alone a HS modder and want to contribute, let me know! my Discord and Twitter are the same as my username from here.

I think you should make a proper definitive edition of this game mod on PC. All Motor City cars with their modifications (including the supra, eclipse and unreleased viper) , NFS High Stakes PS1 cars and their modifications (which are not in PC version like the Mclaren F1 GTR Longtail, Nissan Skyline Special Pro Cup car, Titan etc) , All the NFS 3 cars (which are not in High Stakes like the SL600, R42, Countach,355 F1, 456M etc) with unique modifications. All with NFS High Stakes PS1 handling physics.
