Required Tools

• git for Windows. Download
• git LFS extension to manage large binary files like .dds and .usd. OBS: .usda aren't binary and we want to see and review their content. Link
  • The repo is already setup, you just need to run git lfs install.
• Omniverse Launcher Download
  • In the launcher, also install USD Composer (Formerly named Create), the main tool we use to manipulate USD/USDA files and develop the modifications to the game.

Installing Dependencies

• Download Underground 2 Widescreenfix and paste the contents in the game directory. NFSUnderground2.WidescreenFix.zip.
  • Modify the scripts/NFSUnderground2.WidescreenFix.ini with a text editor so WindowedMode = 4 and Skip Intro = 1.
  • Rename the dinput8.dll file to dsound.dll.
• Download RTX-Remix 0.2.0 and paste the contents in the game directory so the .trex folder will be next to SPEED2.exe. Link (GitHub Login required to see the links).
• Do the same with Bridge Remix (Release version) Link (GitHub Login required to see the links).
• And with DXVK Remix (Also release version), but paste the files inside the .trex folder. Link (GitHub Login required to see the links).

Installing the mod itself:

• Using a terminal (Ex: Git bash):

  cd "C:\Game-Install-location\"
  
  # Initialize an empty repository in the game folder
  git init
  
  # Add NFSU2-RTX-Remix.git repo as the remote origin of this local repo
  git remote add origin [email protected]:Ekozmaster/NFSU2-RTX-Remix.git
  
  # Fetch all the most up to date information about the repo
  git fetch
  
  # Jump into the main branch with "-f" to ignore game files, so you get the latest stuff from the repo
  git checkout main -f
  

• Copy the rtx-remix-defaults/rtx.conf in the same folder as your SPEED2.exe.
• Have fun!
