(Naming suggestions welcome)

This project is an attempt at re-making the Need For Speed 4 High Stakes experience in Godot engine.

Objectives

• re-implementation of the original physics
• compatibility with community addons through one-click conversion
• multiplayer
• moddability

Start-up guide

The project does not come with any cars and tracks from the original game on its own. You must own the original game and convert the cars and tracks yourself locally.

Instructions

1. Install latest Blender, speedtools addon and latest Godot
2. Open the project in Godot, close it, and open it again. Otherwise strange things happen.
3. Import a track with the following options enabled:
   • Import shading
   • Import collision
   • Import cameras
   • Import ambient
   • Mode: GLTF
4. Export the track into the ./import/tracks directory
   • For example, export map UK into ./import/tracks/UK/UK.glb
   • Enable the following options:
     • Export attributes
     • Export cameras
     • Export extras
     • Export lights
5. Import a car
6. Export the car into the ./import/cars directory
   • For example, export B911 into ./import/cars/B911/B911.glb
   • Enable the following options:
     • Export attributes
     • Export extras
     • Export lights
7. Wait for Godot to process the asset. This may take a while.
8. Run the project
9. Select a track and a car. Click Start game button
10. Drive around

The conversion steps above will be automated later on.
