Ok, So I present the NFS High Stakes Cold War Mod.
Background: For the TLDR of it I met a handful of former East German Police,NVA, and Civilians on a Cold War memorabilia site,Ebay,and FaceBook Groups..Got hooked on collecting Cold War memorabilia, I got to thinking..Them GTA fellas have a plethora of Commie Boxes (as my pal Nik lovingly refers to them) BUT for NFS High Stakes there seemed to be only maybe 10 or so, I'm limited in what modding I can do (since I never was able to build stuff except boxes,spheres,cylinders,and cones, that can be used to create parts of vehicles) I got to thinking..There's loads of Commie Boxes floating about, Why not try and make a NFS High Stakes Cold War Mod?
While a bunch of modders supported the idea as did the Ossis I met, Some modders was like 
and I got lectured to and fro about how the Cold War era Police forces was NOT good to put in this game..Now to me that's their opinion and right to dislike but I'm not glorifying them Police forces either but they had good and bad just like modern counterparts do, that aside I also see this as a historical project too, Many young modders never have saw this stuff..I have scraped Google, Got lots of pics and research help from my friends from former DDR, USSR, Poland,and other places in The Bloc.
I'm trying to be as immersive as possible with this mod..Wanna pull you the player into The Cold War, I've collected many of the Countries sirens to use in the game..But I've hit a limitation- Tracks..I'm no track maker and there just ain't no locales hardly at all that fit in. With help I've created a Soviet City and I lightly modded the famous Bergstrasse to resemble a DDR setting..Other than that that's it trackwise.
Vehicleswise..Oh..That has been going GREAT! Lada, Wartburg, Trabant, Moskvich, Gaz, Volga, IFA, Skoda, UAZ, RAF, and Dacia all show up. Some with more models than others. I have combed NFS Mods Sites, Cities Skylines Mod Sites, GTA Sites, and 3D Models Sites..When Veg came up with Veg Patch it made things all the more greater as it upped Poly Limits..No longer would the game strain at anything over say 10000 Polys being used. Also recently it became possible to add more colors to lights as well thanks to Rata356 so this was great for vehicles using a Green light. Well that's that..Now some pics. P.S. If you spot any modern errors on Civilian vehicle plates..No worries, These will be changed..I've just hoarded up a bunch of vehicles and edited,converted, etc. them to perfection for the time being and released some.
