I've ported NFSU 2 to the browser, with working multiplayer

28 Upvotes

Hey, I'm sure everyone is a bit tired of all the vibecoded projects popping up here and in other subreddits. However, I didn't see anyone create a web version of NFSU2 yet, so figured I'd be the one to do it.

Try it here: https://nfsu2.xyz/

Source code is here: https://github.com/th0mk/nfsu2-web based on this NSFU2 recomp project

I've made some improvements to the game as well:

  • 120fps support with correct game logic
  • High resolution fixes
  • Skippable startup movies
  • Online functionality fully works (online part in menu, create and join lobbies)
  • Freeroam multiplayer (see each others cars in career free roam)
  • Controller support
  • Save management with backup and restore

You can modify most of these settings, I recommend taking a look before starting your game as you can't change them while playing.

Let me know if there's any feedback or improvements I could add, i'm still improving and fixing some small things.

One guy made a mod that let you see the whole map being loaded at the same time without LODs and this is how the hills actually look like in the game...

No sabía sobre la existencia de una web que recreó el juego jajajaja, es muy divertido.
Tiene todas las configuraciones y los componentes del juego, además de la música de distintos NFS.
Aún no exploro todo el mapa pero parece ser que si tiene el mapa completo, además la opción de poder bajarse de tu auto Jajajajaa

¿Alguien sabía de esta web?

Les paso el link de la web:

Gameplay How is it supposed to win URL races when the opponents keep going though me like being 3000 hp more than me?

I think U1 was better. Every URL race is a struggle. I play it on GameCube.

I'm not sure if I've posted this on the sub yet. Here's my updated soundtrack for the hypothetical Underground 3. If you all want, I can give my idea for Underground 3 like the plot, or city, etc. It would take place in 2004. Hope the playlist loads correctly.

Any tuning setups for the Corolla? It seems a bit slow to me.

Release i (claude...) turned NFS Underground 2 into a full 6DoF VR racing game – with stereo 3D, wheel support, force feedback & SimHub!

Post image
117 Upvotes

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.

🔗 GitHub (source code + installation instructions):
https://github.com/DevCrashDay/speed2vr

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.
