I'm proud to announce my project together with sajmon14 on porting L01 to MM2!
Finally I'm going to complete something I started 5 years ago~

Last week sajmon14 messaged me that he managed to make the L01 PSDL working in MM2, so when I tried it running with some PKG's I had converted back in 2011 it worked flawlessy :)
Thus started the progress on this again. Obviously, over the past 5 years new tools have been released and because of this, the project is quickly nearing the basics completed.

Right now, my main objective is to convert every single PKG while keeping the map unchanged. Sajmon is working hard on the races.

In total, L01 has 271 Buildings + 69 Props; so far I completed manually converting 125 buildings and 2 props. The traffic has been converted long ago by me back in 2014-2015.

Some eye candy:

Unlike the old conversion of M01, L01 works without any problems in MM2, I always get 60FPS and never crashed. There are some map-related bugs which appear in MC as well, so these don't count. Although I'm not sure, but we might eventually re-convert M01 from scratch next.

We might have a public beta test soon!

Midnight Club races are really challenging and interesting. There are few ones that are really special, for example a reace where the traffic consists only of double-decker buses or there are only cops in the city. The game had only checkpoint races but I might add few blitz races and circuit races. There are around 26 races currently. Dunno if the Midnight Club player cars will be converted but there will be two variants of the city, one with default MM2 traffic, opponents and Mustang Cruisers and one with Midnight Club traffic cars and cops but it will also use MM2 opponent cars. Some races are head to head with one opponent(pinkslips) and the others have between 3-4 opponents.

Ps. I don't have all of the buildings added to the game so don't be like "this city has errors" or "it looks bad" ;)

Awesome job guys, I always like MC1's London over MM2 London because of the attention to detail was better. :)

I gave this city a run for myself last night, and I gotta hand it to these two, they've done a great job converting this so far in such a short amount of time. Can't wait to play some CnR in this map when it's done. :)
