Need For Speed news

Executive producer Gavin Raeburn, who over the past few years rebooted two major racing franchises of Codemasters, recently left the British publisher and intends to pursue his own projects.

Last year, thanks to Raeburn's efforts TOCA Race Driver turned into Race Driver: GRiD, which earned 87% on Metacritic. In 2007 the year saw the release of Colin McRae: DiRT (rating 83%), and a couple of weeks ago saw the release of Colin McRae: DiRT 2 (rating 87%).

Further development of these series will be handled by a team of talented developers assembled and trained by Raeburn.

Another mod for this year's racing superhit Need for Speed SHIFT. The proposed build is the result of the work of several people and introduces fairly radical changes to the game both in terms of physics and in the graphics part.

Main features of the mod:
- reworked physics;
- alternative camera views;
- changed damage;
- drastic changes in AI physics and behavior;
- changes in the game menu;
- changes in the "content" of racing tracks.

As can be seen from the above, the mod deserves attention. Using it brings the game closer to the previous masterpiece by Blimey!Games - GTR2.

You can download the mod here

To install the mod, the contents of the downloaded archive must be extracted to the game's Pakfiles directory. Be sure to make a backup copy of the files being replaced!
