It seems that there is no dedicated subject for this patch on this site. Apparently it's gotten rave reviews. I have heard that it works very well when used with DirectX9 from the Stock Pack and Glide Wrapper 0.84c. You can even have high-poly traffic cars and high-poly racer cars in the same race. I haven't tried it myself yet, but those who have tried it say that it's awesome if configured properly. |

It is the best working for the game I've seen, It totally ignores serial number conflicts. I don't know if you can have high poly traffic cops or not but I will see. If so than we found a way to break the poly limit..FINALLY..Now on to breaking the 16 light limit in FCE Finish 2. . There is one draw back though to the modern patch, If you use it to take screen pics or game pics you can't just use PRT SCRN no more..You must use Bandicam or FRAPS to do so. |

I tried to get NFS: High Stakes to work with the modern patch and when I tried to race with the PFMS I got a message when loading hometown that said AMF=50 copter.c(299) |

That's wierd. Maybe your Config.Dat file got screwed up when you installed the Veg patch. |

On my new computer I don't have that problem since it has windows 10 on it and my old computer has vista on it and it only happens on my old computer |

I really don't know what is causing that message to appear |

Has anyone tried using a larger resolution car00.tga? I think I read that it's supported in this patch. I meant to try it but totally forgot to. It would be a huge game changer for us if it works but I bet the car would end up looking really screwed up for those who don't use the patch |

Hmmn..I know just the cars to try it on then, I made some that use 512X512 TGA and also Bob Robert has a Polizei Porsche 959 that has 1024X1024 TGA for it. http://www.nfscars.net/need-for-speed-high-stakes/2/files/view/5764/ |

Just tried it for myself and it looks like the game still resizes it to 256x256 On the NFS3 Modern Patch features list, it says it's possible

Interestingly, it also says that it has a built-in screenshot system; whereas I don't know if the NFS4 Modern Patch has that. |

Nfs4 does have a screenshot shortcut: alt + P. It didn't work for me with the Stock Pack but it still works with the modern patch. |

I will post the patch . But we need to figer out this problem first. |

Good to know . |

I installed it, but when I opened the game (using the new EXE) I got a message that said: STREAM - unable to open file 'Data\Audio\Music\menu4.asf'. |
Posted by: AJ_Lethal Mar 22 2017, 07:50 AM |
Did you copy the "data\audio\" folder from the CD to game's folder? |
Posted by: BrabusAMG Mar 29 2017, 03:08 PM |
I have now; it doesn't seem to crash anymore, but it doesn't load either. When I open it, I get a black screen that just stays and does nothing. By the way, where are the alt + P screenshots saved to? |
Posted by: BoxCarRacer Mar 31 2017, 11:34 AM |
Mine were saved right to desktop. |

Most of my patch problems have now been solved; but I have now run into another: the game doesn't seem to support any resolution higher than 640x480, even though 800x600 and 1024x768 are selectable from the graphics menu (and the monitor on my HS computer is 1024x768). If I select a higher resolution, the screen goes blank when I start a race, although the game still runs. I'm using Zeckensack's Glide Wrapper as the graphics driver in case you were wondering. Might that be the problem? |
Posted by: AJ_Lethal Apr 16 2017, 06:59 PM |
don't change the resolution in the game menus if you're using Glide wrappers, you have to use the wrapper settings for that |

See my post above. (Also, something seems fishy...) |
