After I remembered the drag flip video a few weeks ago I decided to do a little research about mods for NFS U2, and I found a few that make going back to this game even more worth it.

The first one is Texmod v2.0, a texture pack made by Dragozool which replaces roads, curbs, fences, as well as some wall and sky textures. They mostly look really good, very detailed, the only complaint I have is about the sky textures, as they look like overcompressed images with macroblocks or other artifacts. Fortunately it is not that noticeable while racing.

The second mod is the Universal Widescreen Patcher that adds support for virtually all available resolutions, including multi-monitor setups. By default, the top and bottom of the image are cropped for widescreen resolutions, and the field of view stays the same. That is where the FoV Hack by Racer_S comes in. It allows to freely adjust both the horizontal and vertical field of view (in-game as well), and it comes with recommended settings for 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios, so you do not have to figure them out for yourselves.

The game looks superb, it is vital that the texture mod preserves the overall feel of the game, I absolutely love Underground's atmosphere, mostly because of the lighting. Coupled with a nearly perfect arcade handling and an awesome soundtrack, this is definitely the best racing game I have ever played.
And now I am going to play through the entire game once again.

Of course the game is rendered at 1920x1080 with MSAAx4 and maxed out details.
