Hey everyone!

I'm happy to share the first video of a project I've been working on: a port of Need for Speed Underground 2 to the PSP. Not a cut-down version like Underground Rivals, but the full game, with the same gameplay and features as the PS2 version.

The goal is a well-optimized build that holds a stable 30 FPS at minimum, so it feels like a true native PSP game.

What's already working (at some level):
- A native PSP engine running the original game data, including most of the graphics features
- Car models
- The entire open world of Bayview, with free roam working
- Circuit races with AI opponents and city traffic
- Audio and music

What's still missing:
- UI / menus
- Career mode, story and dialogue
- The other race types (drag, drift, etc.)
- Garage and cars customization
- Lots of bug fixes and polish

If you want to follow the development, I'll be posting updates on my channel:

Some career builds I did 8 years ago on my dad's laptop while visiting him and his side of the family in the countryside. (Yeah I know the quality is bad)

Hello, Im new here.

So I recently downloaded the ps2 emulator so I can play my favorite racing games again, NFSU2 & MCDER & I wanted to ask a few things because im gonna start making gaming content soon.

1.Is there a mod site or database where I can unlock a fully completed game save so I don't have to unlock everything again? (I work 50+hrs a week and don't have time)

1. Is there an emulator with online support so I can play other people online?

2. Are there mod sites yall use to get other car models that aren't in the base game imported into the game?

Thanks in advance

I genuinely use nfsu1-2 templates and work from there, but there isn't the same itch anymore when i use it, i try to do something on my own and it just doesn't look good enough for me

Is it just me, or whenever I drive really close to an oncoming vehicle, a part of me expects an “Avoided Accident” bonus to pop up?
Or do I need help? 💀

4 context, ive been modding A LOT my nfsu2 copy in my last playtrough, and i wanted 2 try the new functions of the beta versions of unlimiter with UG2.net, Customization Plus, Pabloracer engine sounds, the Smol Improvement script and my own period accurate cars, but the game always crashes when it try 2 show the custom Supra in the menu

in the beggining, all mods install themselves correctly without errors, but when i open the game it crashes like mentioned previously

i am using the ElAmigos setup 2 install the game, the 4gb patch, the FOOBAR method 4 opening the game, and i managed 2 even complete the entire modded game without any crashes before messing with the unlimiter

any help would be VERY, AND I MEAN VERY appreciated c:

I am sorry for AI slop btw

• Photo taken in 540p with only rtx remix and upscaled to 1080p-ish quality and filtered with dlss5 NR
• I have 3060m so yeah my pc exploded with only rtx remix

Ik this ain’t much but i’m really proud it, which means i would hopefully make more custom made liveries with texed in nfsu2 in the future.

Also i forgot to mention this build is a reimagined Nissan nismo sentra se-r bonus car from ug1 using the new parts for it in ug2.net

Witajcie, czy dołączycie na naszą polską grupę NFSU2??

I grew up playing UG2 and I’ve been getting an itch to play it again recently. I don’t have my PS2 anymore and my laptop and PC don’t have CD ports so I can’t install it from a disk. Anyone know if there’s a reasonable way to find a digital download? Open to Mac or PC.

Playing this while blasting some 90s trance/house and jungle dnb in the background is such a vibe. I love this game.
