AT this section additional vehicles for Need for Speed SHIFT.
All auto-mods can be installed only for unpacked version games. To unpack the game, you need to do the following ( it is initially assumed that the game is just installed, patched with the official patch 1.02 and no other mods have been installed on it):
1. Download SHIFT Unpacker, unpack the contents into a folder with installed game. Then run the file shiftunpackpc.bat- unpacking will begin. The process takes from 7-10 minutes to an hour, the duration depends on the fragmentation of the disk, the amount random access memory and the processing power of your computer. Wait for the end of the process.
2. Create (if this was not done automatically during the installation of the game) a shortcut on the desktop to launch the game
Then change its properties by adding, as shown in the figure, the parameter -loose in the launch line: 
After the described procedures, your game will be unpacked and ready to create, install and test mods. The game must be launched only using the created shortcut!
The next step is to install modifications. For a quick, correct and painless installation of various mods, you will need a utility called Generic Mod Enabler . The task of the utility is to connect and disconnect mods directly to the game. You can download it on the official website. During the installation of the utility, you must also select the folder in which the SHIFT, otherwise using modifications will have no effect.
After installation, you need to run the utility with the file JSGME.exe, as a result, a folder will appear in the directory with the game MODS, in which the mods themselves will be placed directly, or rather the contents of the downloaded archives, which represent the modifications.
As can be seen from the figure, the program has two windows. The first (left) shows the available mods, the right - installed (activated). Activation of available mods is carried out by pressing the corresponding buttons:
> - activate the mod;
< - деактивировать мод.
After activating the mods, the program can be closed, in the game they appear automatically during the next launch.
Other mods can be installed in a similar way, the necessary condition is they must be for the unpacked version of the game .
Additional information on installing modifications is presented in the corresponding mod description articles.

Mods" and look for thematic sites (of which, by the way, there are not many), or you can just read my guide to the end to decide whether you need to dig and pick in the game files, is it difficult and what will you see after that?
To install mods, you need a version of the game v1.02 with all DLC. First of all, we need to prepare the game for installing mods. For this:
1. Unpack game archives. Download the UPC patch from the author ermo. The contents of the archive are placed in root folder games and run the UCP_s2u_unpacker.cmd file.
Unpacking the game can take up to 1 hour. Do not under any circumstances interrupt it.
2. Now we activate the unpacked version of the game. To do this, open JSGME.exe, which is located in the root folder of Shift, select Shift 2 Unpacked and click on the arrow (activate). Activating an unpacked Shift may take up to 20 minutes. 
3. Create a shortcut from which we will launch the game, and in the properties of the shortcut in the object field, add "-loose" to the very end without quotes and with a space. Run the game only from this shortcut!
The game is ready to install mods. Now let's talk about the installation order and pitfalls.
Mods for are placed in the Mods folder in the root directory. When adding a new car, you need to change three files (just in case, make a backup):
- SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED /vehicles/ vehiclelist.lst responsible for the appearance of cars in the game
- SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED / vehicles / physics / tires / tires.xml responsible for the physics of car tires
- SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED / vehicles / GUI / hud / hud_vehicles.xml responsible for displaying the instruments of the car
All three files are edited with notepad. The lines that need to be written for each car are in the ReadMe file in the archive with the mod.
Install mod. Let's say it will be Smart For Two by Bregel. Open the archive, there is:
- Folder Smart (copy to Mods)
- Template file (we don't need it)
- ReadMe file (read)
From the ReadMe file we take the lines that need to be entered into the files vehiclelist.lst, tires.xml, hud_vehicles.xml, enter them and save the changes. Now open JSGME.exe from the root directory of the game. We see our mod there in the left column (Smart line). Select it and click "activate". After activation, close JSGME.exe. The machine is installed. We launch and see in the store a new manufacturer (Smart) and a new car (Smart For Two) 
How to install mods:
In order to avoid conflicts and game crashes, I recommend installing mods in the following order:
1. Unpacked
2. Mods for physics (if you use)
3. Mods for career and AI opponents (if you use)
4. Wheels and Tires V3.1
HD Replacement for Disc Brakes and Caliper v1.2
SHIFT 2 - Engine Audio Adjust
(if you plan to use mods from chevyopala)
5. SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED: THE FERRARI (many mods use resources from this pack)
6. All other mods (it is worth noting that it is advisable to put older mods before new ones, so the latter can have a better replaceable texture)
Possible problems:
1. The car did not appear.
- Check the file again vehiclelist.lst for line errors auto.
2. The game crashes when entering a race.
- Most likely, the line was not written in tires.xml
3. Vinyls are not glued to the car.
- Not all cars support this option, the same with painting bugs
And finally, a general overview of sites, as well as individuals who have been noted for active modding of Shift.
Sites:
1. http://www.nogripracing.com/ - An English-language racing site. Registration is required to download. The population is adequate. There are about 50-60 mods for . In addition to mods for cars, there are also mods that change physics, career, lighting, etc.
The authors:
- chevyopala - probably builds the highest quality cars for Shift. Works only with muscle cars. On the this moment about 2 dozen works.
- Yuki729 - makes quality cars for drifting, also one of the best in vinyl art. Cars are mostly Japanese, vinyls are anime
- LamboMantisMan23 - builds supercars. Quality latest cars much higher than the former.
- Nemesis28021982 - rarely appears on the site. "Father" of copies of real racing cars and series. The quality of the car is average, the vinyls of ALL cars are taken from real racing 
2. http://nfs-game.com/ - Russian site. You don't need to register to download mods. Almost the largest selection of mods on the Internet. Presented mainly cars and vinyls.
The authors:
- WinnerSD-47 - the author of half of the mods for . The quality of work varies, but is often above average. Makes an average of 5-6 cars per month
- Stlaker_90 - the author of about 2 dozen cars. Mods are mostly high quality.
- Vitaxa - the author of a small number of mods, but the quality is always on top.
- Yaroslav19 - the main artist of the site. The author of most vinyls for cars. 
3. http://www.nfscars.net/ - a small site, about 2 dozen mods. Registration is not required to download.
The authors:
- battery992 - created about 10 models. His cars are very high quality, with reliable physics. Does mostly "road legends" 
4. http://nfs-shift-brasil.blogspot.com/ - Brazilian modding site. The car is small, the quality is poor.
There are many more authors who are working on mods for, but I don’t see the point in listing them all.
Concluding the topic, I will say that in my assembly there are more than 400 cars (in original game about 150), and the passage of a career takes 4-6 times longer than the original.
I will be happy to answer any questions about installing mods. Your Sensenmann!

How could I screw up? Unfortunately, with such a delay, but nevertheless, I also congratulate everyone.
10 years... 10 glorious years and those first moments of movement in the club life, those "wars" with other TDU resources, the formation of garage modding and gathering with videos in the GON style. Those were glorious times. Constant calls on Skype, communication with those who were in the first team, the adoption of new teammates, a lot of positive at gatherings and all in the same Skype. Even seemingly trifles like playing poker, mafia, etc. in contact. It was actually great! And I can't even believe that so much time has passed. For 10 years, Garage has shown that it can endure many hardships while remaining in the ranks. There were also unpleasant moments when there was a question of closing with an edge, but by common efforts they did not let this come true. For such a long period, we really have outlived more than one Internet resource, outlived all competitors, received a lot of positive moments from communicating with each other.
I believe that HFG has made an invaluable contribution not only to the TDU game world (mostly to it), but also to communication, relationships between people, and even, probably, some worldview of people. After all, we, teenagers, talked and took an example from older guys. I have always watched with curiosity how our, I'm not afraid of the word, leader - Alexander, resolved many disputes in calm tones, in a diplomatic style. I also remember situations when everyone had to put aside diplomacy together. Yes, of course, now many of the old guard do not go to the site, they have disappeared from sight. Yes, and I, to be honest, communicate only with units. But, then, when I first got here, I remember Igor's instructions, I remember his help to me both in gatherings and acclimatization in the club. It was from his submission that they thought about my candidacy in this team. I remember Arthur, who often came up with great ideas. I remember what mods Alexander did, which the entire gaming community then drooled over. And they were only with us. I remember the others, without whom it would have been a completely different story.
The old days, as they say now, are tube. I miss a lot, I miss a lot ... And, let's see, maybe it will turn out to see someone else live.
Well, the guys who now carry the project on their shoulders deserve separate words. Many of us dinosaurs have already retired. And you continue to breathe life into the project, into the world of TDU, and into our team itself. Without you, this project would not make any sense now. Thank you very much!
Well, garage, the next 10-year-old is ahead! Forward! And Happy Anniversary everyone! And the old guard, and the new composition, and the most ordinary users our resource!
