    I was wondering if there are any plugins out for the Need For Speed games. I downloaded Need For Speed Hot Pursuit, Shift 2 and Underground off of steam yesterday for around 5 bucks a game so I thought I would share this deal if anyone is interested and also to request the plugins for these games. Thanks for your time

    How about share the deal anyway?

    Yes, that would be cool, I have NFS hot pursuit, Pro Street and Carbon here. I think I have Shift somewhere as well. Arcady but would be awesome with motion.

    Value1, you are a legend for the time you spend digging up this info

    If been in contact with Criterion and they don't support motion data.
    The only way would be memory hooks. And I'm not there yet :(

    Thanks value1 for the quick reply. There are lots of other games I can play so no worries. I'm really enjoying the software and plugins that are already available so thanks to you and everyone involved in making this all happen

    Hello, buddies.
    I suggest to choose one of the versions (most favorite) of NFS games. And we can try to search the data and write a plugin for it. Unfortunately (almost certainly) all another versions will have a different addresses of the data.

    I also like the Hot Pursuit but I also have Shift as they were on sale on steam. I haven't played either cause they don't have any motion. It's tough to play any game without motion to go with it:grin.

    Hot pursuit, from 2010?I think is good for the open world you can just go for a drive. Its a pleasant change from race, race, race.

    Yeah the one from 2010. I think its the one Criterion did. I'vc played it one xbox 360 and its a blast! Nothing too complex but its fun running from the police on there!

    Indeed! Just an arcade game when you're too exhausted to do something else. Jump into the car and off you go.

    Hmm… I fear there is not a lot you can do – except dual-screen. The game is for sure not meant to be played in windowed mode :(

    not as far as I know. I looked into this as well when I was playing the game to try to find data out of it for the "other"software , of which I found out later was bugged. No window mode available

    Yes, when I started with a DIY static frame, I had it setup on my pc, my bro in law came over for christmas , saw it, sat down and went for a "drive" for about an hour. No race , just an open world game tour.

    Alt-Enter works on some EA games to goto window mode.

    Another trick is to run it in a virtual machine.
