Hi,

This is not an issue in the current release but I didn't know how to get in touch with you, so thought maybe through here would be a good idea?

Basically, I'm not sure if you're aware, they've released the Arcade version of this game for PC and it can be interacted via the frontend (although it's got some issues), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fr08mWYxdfg

The problem is that the arcade version supports races of 8 cars but because the game is launched via the frontend the game just allows us to have races with 4 cars instead.

I arrived to your plugin because I saw that you offer now an option to choose the number of opponents when one is configuring the race. Could you please see if a some point you could offer that functionality to the Arcade version as well (via its UndergroundGVR.exe), allowing us to choose between 0 and 7?

At the moment, if I copy the files of the extras on my folder and launch that exe file, I get the error:

Many thanks in advance!

Hi! NFSUa isn't on our plans, but we have an alternative: You can use NFS Underground Arcade Configurator by Xanvier instead. https://nfsmods.ga/mod.php?id=58

Wow, thanks for the help guys! It seems that for using the 'Arcade Configurator' we need to disable the frontend, otherwise the frontend options (like number of opponents) overwrite whatever we choose in the plugin. But a lot better than without it...

Many thanks!!

@mickael28 Heya! I can technically add support to ExOpts for NFSU Arcade, it's just a matter of abstracting the addresses and adding a little switch between the two.

If @nlgzrgn would be up for it, we could add it.

mickael28 commented 7 years ago

@xan1242 , @nlgzrgn If you guys could merge both products, that would provide new ways to play. I'm mainly playing in two different ways at present:

Failing the integration. @xan1242 , could you see if you can add a 'vibration' option into the 'Arcade configurator' which will enable force feedback feature?
And is there a github project (or similar) for that Arcade configurator to subscribe and get notified if there's any new release?

Cheers!

@mickael28 I can add it and I've been asked about it already (was around when I was busy with 10000 other things so I forgot about it). I will add it nonetheless.

I didn't post it on Github yet, but I usually post updates to its nfsmods page (which I see you have found already, nfsmods notification system is bugged so I didn't notice the comment :V).
