Description
I couldn't find a high-res texture pack for vanilla Dolphin Cove that I really liked, so I decided to make my own textures using AI upscaling tools and/or GIMP. Nearly everything has been upscaled or remade to a higher res, including skyboxes and some night/weather textures, and some minor texture edits/fixes have been made to the track itself.
You can get an idea of how the mod looks in-game via this video I put together.
NEW in v1.1: greatly improved background forest textures.
(Recommended) System Requirements
NFS4 is an old game but combined with recent modifications to it, it can actually get pretty demanding. Here's some things you will probably need for a smooth experience.
1) Run on VEG's Modern Patch.
- a) Modern Patch is CPU intensive, so it's probably best to have a CPU from within the last ten years.
- b) I'm not sure Modern Patch was meant to run on systems older than Windows 10, which is what I run. YMMV with older OSs.
2) A decent GPU with (probably) at least 256 MB or more of VRAM.
Instructions
1) Make a backup of your Coastal folder found in [your NFS4 installation directory] -> Data -> Tracks.
2) Unzip my mod somewhere and cut/paste the files from my mod's Coastal folder into your installation's Coastal folder. Overwrite all when prompted.
