INSTALLATION
–––––––––-
Tools Required:
1) Binary v2.4 (as of this mod release, the latest version of Binary is required)
https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/1638
2) VLTed
https://nfs-tools.blogspot.com/p/downloads.html
3) NFSMW Unlimiter
https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/688

How to install:
1) Run Binary
a) Click the icon on the left to launch Binary for users
b) Select "Setup_CaymanW_Binary.end" from this directory
c) Select your NFSMW installation directory
d) Select vinyl size
i) *ONLY select 1024x if you installed the HD 1024x vinyls mod*
ii) If you have no idea what I'm talking about, select 512x, which is the game default.
iii) You must select whichever vinyls are used on the rest of the cars.  Otherwise, the game will crash.
e) Select menu logo quality.
f) Save.
2) Run VltEd
a) File -> Open -> select your NFSMW installation directory
b) File -> Import -> ModScript -> select "Setup_CaymanW_VltEd.nfsms" from this directory
c) Select "Install" option
d) Save.
3) Install NFSMW Unlimiter
a) Straightforward, it has its own ReadMe if you need help.
4) Run the game and create a new save file OR patch your existing save file using the save patcher, included with this mod.
a) The save patcher is only useful if you haven't installed any previous versions of this mod before.
i) Run the "SavePatcher" exe and select your save game to patch.
ii) Then, use the "SaveEditor" exe, and simply open your save file and save it again.  This is to prevent a bug that prevents the game from loading the patched file.
b) If this mod is already installed, and you're re-installing/updating it:
i) Delete any old customized versions of this car in My Cars or Career.  You'll see that your previously saved customized versions of this car are screwed up, but deleting them *should* solve the issue without having to recreate a new save game.
ii) If you're still having issues with this car, or other cars in your profile are screwed up, then your only option is to create a new save game.
