Setup Guide


This program can be used with any h-shifter that supports custom keymapping.
What you'll want to do is map your shifter gears to keys 1 - 6 (not NUMPAD keys!) like this:
Note that I have a shifter with 6 gears. This program supports up-to 8 gears.



Once you've done all that, launch the game, set your transmission to manual in settings and hop into a session (you cannot be inside the garage).

After you load into the game, launch heat-shifter.exe, type s and press ENTER.

The program will ask you to shift into the 4th gear. Do as you're asked and ALT-TAB back into the program and press ENTER.

The program will search NFS' memory for a short while (depending on your computing power).

After it's done searching, it will ask you to shift into 3rd gear, ALT-TAB back and press ENTER.

This step will repeat a few more times, until the program finds 18 results and print out found memory addresses.

After that happens, you can go back to the game and try changing gears with your shifter.

If the gear doesn't change on the speedometer, press the + key (numpad) and change to two different gears. If the gear changes inside the speedometer, you have the right address. So repeat the process of pressing the + key and shifting into two different gears, until it basically works :)

That's it, enjoy!

Issues & Limitations

The only issue is that you have to re-launch the program and repeat the scan every time you go in and out of garage or change your car. There is no need to restart the program after hopping into a race, as long as you don't change your car.

The one limitation for now is that there is no support for neutral, i.e. the program won't put the gear out after doing so on your shifter. I'm already planning on fixing this in the near future.
