Need For Speed: Most Wanted 2005
Rockport Racetrack Simulation Mod v1.0
by TerraSphere_385

I've always admired simulator games, Forza, Gran Turismo, Project CARS, Assetto Corsa and others. I've always wanted to play those games, but so far I've only played DiRT 3, Gran Turismo 4, Gran Turismo 6, and most recently, Forza Motorsport 5. Every time I play, I have to pay 80 Pesos for an hour. It was always not enough to satisfy me and then I thought of an alternative. This came out of the box, a texture mod.

I searched for a track layout in the Track List of MW, it had have a great view, a tunnel, a highway, and tricky corners. Nothing came close to the track 'Omega & Industries. Then I started on the road textures. Looking for an inspiration. I kept asking random people which track do they like most, Nurburgring was the winner, others answered Laguna Seca, and Suzuka. I had to make the roads clean and the sidewalks look like painted concrete stripes, and also the barriers. After all those, I set to work.

I was so pleased of the results but as I kept playing, I felt there was no realism. So I dug on my previous mods and recalibrated it for this one. I'm so excited about it then again, there was something missing everytime I drive.

So the long search for a candidate has commenced. A candidate for the calculator, I wanted realistic performance, realistic handling, realistic grip. I admit, my previous Pagani Zonda Handling Mod is a bloody fail. It's undrivable, it oversteers a lot and it shouldn't be like that stiff. Instead of perfecting the zonda again, I refocused onn selecting a car. It should be modern, has good handling, comfortable ride, has a 'more-than-sporty' performance, and more importantly, an icon. From the Ford Mustang GT 5.0 (the 2014 model) to the Nissan GT-R, the Audi seemed to be the right choice, and then I started working on the car.

After months of tuning, the R8 was finally ready. The road grip is ready, the mods are ready. Then I tested it. My verdict? GREAT! BUT, the track seemed pretty messed up, so I reworked on the textures. I realeased the R8 in advance for the preparation and continued working. I have learned a lot during the development of this track, the traffic remover, the object weights, and many more. I put a lot of work just for this, it might be too self-serving for a mod but I think it's worth it. I hope you enjoy this.

If anyone could upload pictures of this mod, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.
