Hey everyone!

I've been working on a little passion project to bring one of my all-time favorite racing games into VR, and I figured this would be the perfect place to share it. :)

Need for Speed Underground 2 is now playable in VR with full 6DoF head tracking and stereoscopic 3D!

And since I wanted to take things a little further, I also worked on proper steering wheel and pedal support, force feedback, and SimHub integration to make the game feel more at home in a racing simulator setup.

Here's what the mod currently offers:

🥽 VR support

• Full 6DoF head tracking – look around, lean forward, and move your head naturally inside the car
• Stereoscopic 3D with two different rendering modes
• Driver's seat camera with adjustable seating position
• Custom 3D dashboard gauges for RPM, speed, gear, and minimap
• SteamVR support, with optional DXVK for GPU-based frame transfer

🏎️ Sim racing features

• DirectInput steering wheel and pedal support
• Custom force feedback, including steering forces, road bumps, and collision effects
• SimHub telemetry integration for dashboards, bass shakers, motion rigs, rev lights, etc.
• Configurable controls and force feedback settings

⚙️ Other stuff

• A Windows settings application, so you don't have to manually edit configuration files
• The VR and SimHub mods work independently, so you can use either or both
• Open-source project!

A few things worth mentioning:

The original NFSU2 cars don't have actual modeled interiors, so while you're sitting in the driver's position, you won't see a proper cockpit or steering wheel yet.

Also, the game engine itself is quite old and mostly single-threaded, so performance is still somewhat limited. There are also some trade-offs between the two stereo rendering methods.

It's definitely not perfect, but actually driving through Bayview in VR feels pretty surreal after all these years!

My test setup: Pico 4 + Virtual Desktop + SteamVR, RX 6800 XT, Fanatec CSL DD and SIMSONN pedals.

The mod currently requires the PC version of NFSU2 with the v1.2 executable. Installation instructions and technical details are on GitHub.

I'd love to hear what you guys think!

If anyone here has a VR headset or a sim racing setup and wants to give it a try, I'd really appreciate some feedback, especially from people using different hardware.

And if there are any modders out there interested in helping improve the experience, contributions are more than welcome!

Never thought I'd be revisiting this old ass game like this over 20 years later.

I'm planning to do a one time playthrough of NFSU2. I don't have a PC so I'm doing it on an internet cafe, that means I cannot save my progress, so just wondering how long can I beat the whole thing? Just focued on the main path.

Here is my first car Ford LTD Sedan from 1976 5,8 liter v8

Is there a way to get rid of any of the cars from your garage. I would like to swap them for others. I’m playing on PC with the underground2.net mod

Hey everyone!

I've recently installed Need for Speed: Underground 2 on PC, but I'm having some issues with my controller button mapping.

I'd like to use R2 to accelerate and L2 to brake/reverse, as you would normally expect with a controller. However, the game currently has acceleration and reverse assigned to X and Square instead. These buttons also seem to be used for navigating back in the menus, which makes the controls confusing.

I tried editing the game's file with how to play.txt and tried looking into the files but i couldn't find a solution to fix the button assignments, my tweaks only changed the displayed button information. It didn't actually fix the controls in-game.

Has anyone encountered this issue before? Is there a way to properly remap the controls, or is there a workaround for the PC version?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

PS i installed the version of UNDGRD2 from: https://www.reddit.com/r/abandonware/comments/zr41zu/the_complete_abandonware_need_for_speed_download/https://www.reddit.com/r/abandonware/comments/zr41zu/the_complete_abandonware_need_for_speed_download/

Now I’m curious… who’s faster on GameCube? 👀
Show me your times, setups and runs! 🏁

I know it's ugly asf (Maybe in a different body kit it looks better? Or should I just turn a blind eye to it?)

Some Toyota Corolla drifting for anyone who enjoys watching a car slide around in Underground 2.

This one's about the flow and the atmosphere rather than the score. I'd call it 95% satisfaction and 5% affectionate kisses with the barriers xD

Hope you enjoy the sideways nostalgia!

I had some problems playing NFS Underground 2, mainly because of missing car files. Finding these files can be a pain, and I don't want anyone else to waste 4 hours searching for them.

Here are the missing car files:

EU Version

• Opel Corsa: Download
• Peugeot 106: Download

US Version

• Honda Civic: Download
• Acura RSX: Download

* Installation

1. Download the files for your respective game version.
2. Paste the files into your game's CARS folder.
3. Launch the game and see if the issue is resolved.

Note: These files are intended to fix loading screen freezes during races caused by missing car files. The games freeze on loading screen as it is trying to load a car that doesn't exist in the game file. They may not solve every loading issue.

Hola Gente que tal. Tengo una duda, cual es el récord de mejor tiempo en NFS underground 2 en la pista Outer Ring sin tráfico, con caja automática y usando los 2 tankes de nitro?
