First unzip it and then run it. Start playin' NFSU2 choose the Corsa and go to ur garage. Next step is to press ALT+TAB. Here u can see the trainer and select the body(I think it's da first) Then go back to the game select "change bodyparts" and then select widebody then install the Armageddon kit.
P.S.:I'll post some pics coz I don't have it now

I think that this challenge is cool. But then again, as I've said a million times before, I am a Corsa fan - best car in NFSU2 IMHO. However, I think my car is more of a Swan than an Ugly Duckling :D

And Viper GT - I have emailed you my saved game (I hope!) Not too sure what I need to copy, 54KB seems a little small. I'm afraid that if it doesn't work, I'm all out of ideas...

I can't send to Triskac, as s/he doesn't have an email button. Sorry.

I'm really really stumped. You've got the euro cars added into the game. You've got my completed save game, with everything unlocked, yet it won't load up.

I'll continue to have a think on it. :?

Oh, just a thought - have you tried Googling for Saved Games for NFSU2?

Ok, I don't get something. Couldn't you make a Mazda Miata MX5 challenge, we all have it and that car has almost the same widebodykit, it's ugly, it's big and it sucks. Why making a ugly car challenge with a Corsa? :oops:
Or, is the meaning of this challenge to Armageddon Corsa look nice?
EDIT: Bah, I just realized I have to play again through the game to get all paints, the trainer doesn't work :-S

@Twinturbo: I can get the widebodykit and all other bodyparts and performance parts, but paint is missing. Only gloss, no rim paint...

I couldn't get more than gloss either, so I just used gloss and went totally crazy on the vinyls so you just wouldn't notice :lol:

@ Viper GT: I'll try, but that file is the only content of that folder...

My whole NFSU2 directory of saved games is something like 58 Megs - most of it is just the magazine covers; I can't believe we have to copy all those as well, surely? I can't email that amount of data anyway - my ISP won't allow more than 2MB...

Oh for crying out loud - my computer won't let me attach a whole directory to my email. OK, could you try the following. Navigate to:

C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Local Settings\Application Data\NFS Underground 2\

and manually create a directory called DarrenR, ie:

C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Local Settings\Application Data\NFS Underground 2\DarrenR

and then paste the saved game file I sent you into that new directory, so in effect you get:

C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Local Settings\Application Data\NFS Underground 2\DarrenR\DarrenR

Why do EA have to make things so difficult FFS :roll:
