NFS World Offline Developement Thread

There were alot of doubles on map, just with another name, but to remove them you need to drive all maps and make a compare between them.
Best example are the Circuit-Events in West-Kempton, basically they were doubled, just with another name.

ID's:
- 317 / Central Coast
double of nfs-carbon track
- 243 / Siverton Challenge

- 302 / Beachfront
double of nfs-carbon track
- 282 / Knifes Edge

NFS-Carbon tracks have no track-info, so you can remove them from map (243+282), because they have NFS-World remakes with correct track-info (317+302) ;)

Yah, I have noticed that, maybe over time, I will do just that.
Same as with the purple ones, I have a few that are right ontop of a reg track.

The other day when I was going back over the non used track numbers, there were a bunch of purple ones that were the exact same track, all with different issues.
It seems the Devs kept trying to redo the track and couldn't get it right lol.
One track, you started inside a wall and couldnt do nothing, then their next attempt put you right behind a tree and on and on with issues.

What I don't understand is how they would take all that time to create the whole track, without even checking how it starts.
Wouldn't the wise thing to do is create the beginning, and test it to see if the cars line up correctly, before continuing with the building of the rest of the track?

And why the heck did they half create so many tracks in the first place?
It's as if they started them, then moved on to half creating a new one and continued to do that.
As if they did it on purpose because there is well over 140 of them, about 90 that are decent enough to use, and there is nothing what so ever wrong with the track design and they are just as good as the ones that were released and some of those purple ones are completely finished other than having the purple Icon.

Like as if they thought, "hey, we will half create a ton of tracks, then we know we have job security as EA cant get rid of us until the tracks are finished"

Of course I am just speculating, as that is how it looks.

Never the less, these versions contain several options to choose from.
Read the README.

Special thanks to @InnZumNiaK for his latest version to help me fix mine.

Nice map BTW, too bad it doesn't contain all the tracks, would have come in handy.

Nice work everyone with the track edits. Plenty to work with now. Thank you to all involved!

Off topic, finally got my Internet working correctly to post again.

EDIT: Have we figured out how to add those cars missing from the dealer? The Terlingua and Lambo achievement addition? I am sure I will figure it out eventually if I keep messing with it. he he I am sure after botching it up a half dozen times or more!

Bambie was the one who made all the cars available in the dealership; so we'd have to ask her. She was last seen on August twenty-third which probably means she isn't active as much any more.

Slightly off-topic: Does anyone know of a good XML editor other than the ordinary notepad? I tried Microsoft's XML notepad 2007, but it doesn't read the files. I would really like one that could show me what's in the XML file in a less cluttered way than notepad.

I do not know if it is good but it is free anyway. I just have it so I can get the xml organized so I can actually see whats what with them when they are messy. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Really?
I been using simple notepad since I first started helping out here.

Like with checking @InnZumNiaK's latest share against my xml.
I also had an empty note pad up, as well as the map list and my folder of launchevent files up all at the same time, side by side and had no problems what so ever.

Perhaps you don't have "word wrap" checked and are using the wrong font and size?
Try Lucida Console size 9, it's the perfect size and font for this sort of thing.

I heard about notepad++ and it is said to give more options and such, haven't tried it yet but it is what the Buzcopter uses and how he found those Visual tags so fast.

Sorry I haven't got around to messing with our latest discussion, got caught up in other things.
Going to take a nap soon and will address it when I get up, all caught up on everything else.
Lol

Thanks, been wanting to try this for a long time, but was too lazy to do it as I said, notepad seems to do the trick for me.
But you posted the link and I accidentally clicked it and it downloaded so I have to try it now.
:D

edit..oh wow...why did I wait so long for something so sweet, lol
Thanks again

@GlideImage
I just opened that carslots file....huge difference than reg notepad
:D

Word wrap was unckecked by default, make sure you have it checked.

I did some scans on this one. From VirusTotal, Blueliv didn't like it, but Blueliv doesn't like a lot of things. Malwarebytes thought it was okay, but Windows SmartScreen does not like it in the least. Thanks anyways! And thank you GlideImage for sharing yours!

EDIT: Wow, Glide, that XML editor is amazing! I wanted to try some things with the vanity spoiler file, but it only shows one line, but there are tons more than that one line from notepad. :/ Other files that I tried (which weren't from the Catalog folder FYI) seemed to work.

Oh, and maybe I can find the black Terlingua in one of my older server backups. I'll see if I can find it.

That would be cool about the Terlingua, I have no idea how to add it. Also if it has that Lamborghini Achievement edition too. that one is also missing from the dealer as well.

As for the editor, are you saying it just shows one line when you open the xml file, yes some seem to do that but F11 (or under xml tab hit pretty print) will organize it in a column or under view "wrap word" unless you already figured that out. :) I found it pretty cool for something free, and all the editing features.

Here is the Lambo Achievement and Black Terlingua that are missing from the dealer, I have a carslots.xml that have these 2 cars in it if that will help get them added to the dealer. I will eventually figure out how to add them, I think!


If someone already added them to the dealer, would you share the catalog files for the rest of us please. Thank you!

I was just messing around and seeing if I can do anything with adding them in to the dealer.
That Terlingua, there is already a Yellow Version in the dealer, are even sure that there was once a black version too, or is possible that the guy we got the persona from, didn't just paint his black?
Either or though, whats the huge deal with wanting a black version in the shop too?

As for that lambo, I managed to add it into the Dealer
:D

Its only a partial fix though, but does work.
I replaced the Blue versions basket file with the carslot info of the Achievement Edition's then even went into the catalog file and changed the name from "blue" to "Achievement Edition" and everything works except that it still appears as the blue version but at least the name is correct.
After you buy it, it switches to the Achievement Edition, its HAT works correctly and it drives good too.

If I could only figure out what the proper <Hash>bla bla bla</Hash> is for that car to apply to the preset rides.xml file then it would show up correctly in the Dealership.
I have no idea where to find that number though.

That number is not in any cars basket file, nor any of the 100 files either.
Until i figure out how to find it, this is the best I can do.

Just take your NA6191838F out of the basket folder and replace with this one.
Switch back to the default one, if you wish to buy the Blue version.
If you wish, go into the productsInCategory_NFSW_NA_EP_PRESET_RIDES_ALL_Cat egory.xml search 6191838F, which will bring up the Blue version, and you can change the Title from Blue to Achievement Edition and it will show up that way in the dealer too.

I would exit the game before apply this fix though, just to be safe that is.
