speedtools 0.1.1

NFS4 HS (PC) resource utilities

About

This project provides data extraction utilities for the following Need for Speed 4 HS asset files:

• tracks
• cars

Additionally, Blender addon is provided to directly import track and car data.

Setup (Blender addon version)

1. Open Blender and open the Scripting tab

2. In console, type paste the following two commands:

   import sys, subprocess
   subprocess.call([sys.executable, "-m", "pip", "install", "speedtools"])
   

   This command will install the speedtools package to your Blender Python installation.

   Note: Python installation that comes with Blender is completely separate from the global Python installation on your system. For this reason, it is necessary to use the Blender scripting console to install the package correctly.

3. Copy and paste the content of this file to the Blender scripting window.

4. Click the ▶ button.

5. You should see Track resources and Car resources under File>Import.

Until I figure out a better way to install Blender addons, this must suffice.

Setup (command line version)

Install the package from PyPI:

pip install speedtools

Currently, the command line version does not provide any useful functionality.

Known issues and limitations

• Some tracks are not imported with correct textures
• Tested only with PC tracks
