Need for Speed: Underground is where Need for Speed goes The Fast and the Furious. The series' traditional formula of racing supercars across highways and winding mountain roads while running from the cops is thrown out in favour of nighttime underground street racing with highly modifiable tuner cars. Although some criticised the change, the game was well received overall and went on to dictate the direction of the NFS series for many years to come.

Removed Game Modes

To do:
Extract the relevant texts for the removed modes.

According to in-game files, five game modes were removed.

  • Smoke Show

A game mode where you likely would've done burnouts and donuts to try and generate the most smoke. Likely removed since it would've served no purpose.

  • Party

Possibly a local party game mode with linked consoles. Not much is known, nor is known why it was removed.

  • Car Show

Possibly a car meet game mode. Likely removed as it served no purpose.

  • Cash Knockout

A cut game mode which worked much like Tournament but uses cash as the scoring system.

  • Tournament

Another removed game mode, although this one can still be accessed by the use of Cheat Engine on the PC version. Interestingly, everything about this game mode is fully functional, which raises questions on why it was removed.

  • Theater

It was a place where you would've watched the game's cutscenes. It was cut from the final version, but leftovers exist, including an icon. It exists in a prototype of the GameCube version.

NFS: HP2 Leftovers

  • TSELECT.BIN

Leftover from NFS: HP2. It contains track select screens.

  • HUDTEX.BIN

Another leftover from NFS: HP2. It contains gauge textures.

Unused Text

Pre-Race Taunts

Apparently the game's characters could taunt you before races, as this text suggests:

Upgrade to Earn Style Points

According to unused text, upgrades were required in order to earn Style Points.

Need

Instant Replay

According to unused text, Instant Replays were going to appear. They were eventually added in Underground 2.

Position Feedback

A feedback on your race position was also cut, according to this unused text:

GameCube Prototype Leftover

Need

Police

As mentioned before, Underground does not feature cops. But according to in-game files, they may have existed at one point. It is unknown as to why they were removed.

  • cop lights

Unused Driver Textures

In the game's files, one can find unused driver textures for a female driver and a driver wearing a helmet. It's possible they intended for players to be able to switch gender like in Black Box's previous title, before scrapping it entirely.

  • Female

  • Helmet

Unused Traffic Cars

4DR_Sedan02

That is the internal file name of this traffic sedan, based off a 2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala, that was removed from the game. It can be restored, and later appeared in Underground 2.

Bus

A bus was also cut from both Underground 1 and 2, but can be restored in both. This car exists in the PlayStation 2 version of NFS HP2.

Ambulance

An ambulance was also cut from both Undergrounds, but same as the bus above, it can be restored in both.

Fire Truck

Same as the bus and ambulance, a fire truck that normally goes unused but can be restored in both Undergrounds. This car exists in the PS2 version of NFS HP2.

  • Bus

  • Firetruck

  • Sedan

  • Ambulance

Unused Tracks

Test Track

A track meant for testing purposes. Likely to test the handling model, jump physics, and driving on other terrains.

Tech Park

This track would've consisted of a 30 second sprint through Downtown, however, it goes unused. It can be restored through modding.

Version Differences

To do:
Details and pictures. Also the box suggests the PS2 versions lack online multiplayer in Japan, confirm this.

Need for Speed Underground J-Tune is a special edition of the game for the Japanese PlayStation 2. Its changes include different art to apply to the cars, and additional magazines.

Debug Menu

With this mod you can enable the debug menu in the game.

Cut Game Option

Download Need For Speed Underground 2

String Damage can be found in options file of the game. This option does not exist in the game. Also cars in this game have minor damage. String BPP can also be found. The option Damage exists in pre-release versions of the game.

Console Version Leftovers

The PC version has leftovers from console version in its files.

Platform Differrences

  • PC and PS2 are the only versions with online multiplayer.
  • The PC version is missing split screen mode.

Need For Speed Underground Soundtrack

Unused Video

Unused video that also exists in the GameCube prototype of the game exists in the game's files.

Cut EA Trax Customization and Songs

Customization exists in the GameCube prototype. it can be restored on Windows version using nlgzrgn's NFSU Extra Options starting on v3.0.0.1337.

Backup & Installation Notes
  • Always make a backup of the files that are overwritten by the File Archive, as the original files are usually required to update the game to a newer version or to play Online!
  • Some No-CD/Fixed EXE files work fine in Single Player mode but are detected to be modified when trying to play online. When this happens use the original EXE to play online, else you could find yourself banned from the game!
  • When using Fixed Files make sure to use a Firewall which controls outgoing traffic, as some games call back to report the use of these modified files!
  • Some original games do not work when a certain application has been installed, like DAEMON Tools. In most cases using a No-CD or Fixed EXE will solve this problem!
  • Some Game Trainers are sometimes reported to be a Virus or Trojan, the most common is a keylogger called HotKeysHook or the file has been packed/protected with VMProtect or Themida and is recognized as Win32/Packed.VMProtect or Win32/Packed.Themida. In ALL cases this is a FALSE ALARM as NONE of the Game Trainers @ GCW contain known malicious code! More info in the PC Games FAQ!
  • If you have problems using a trainer in combination with Windows Vista, 7, 8 or 10 then make sure to run the trainer with Administrator rights and when needed in Windows XP or Windows 98 compatibility mode!
  • ALL available trainers are for Single Player/Offline use ONLY! Don't try to use them online else your account can/will be banned/closed!
