how i install this?

dimitarigrev (2010-01-24)

any idea how to install the game? I have 47 files that are not RAR archive and nothing else !

 thenoobish (2010-01-24)

Unpack the files first ;)

dimitarigrev (2010-01-24)

English please :):):) I'm sorry in advance

akotnjeka (2010-01-25)

How od I unpack those files? Please help =)

akotnjeka (2010-01-25)

Please, how do I install ?

Riker29 (2010-01-25)

I keep getting a notice that the archive is corrupted. I used Transmission for downloading and did a full "Verify Local Data" operation which passed. I used Spilt/Concat to join the segments, and then used OSX to attempt to extract the zip archive. That didn't work. I also tried using "TheUnarchiver" and that gave me the same error.

greku69 (2010-01-26)

stuffit expander :)
just use this and working...

dimitarigrev (2010-01-27)

to greku69 : Thanks bro u r the man !

D_O_M_O_N_A_T_O_R (2010-01-30)

heey thanks works perfectly thankyou
but one question is there anyway how i can make the resolution 1280x1200 or whatever it is coz the black around the edges annoys me

dropacid (2010-01-31)

i've unpacked the file with stuffit, on double click it barely makes it into the dock before leaving
any ideas?
macbook pro unibody

dropacid (2010-01-31)

don't know what i did, but i got it working; thanks

pincopallinodimerda (2010-01-31)

Stuffit Expander can only expand the first file (NFSUndercoverMac.zip.001)
The other ones are recognized as "not compressed"..
what do I do?

TwisterB. (2010-02-02)

thanks man works 100%
the only problem im having is that sometimes when i run the game it just appear a white screen and the game is running cause i can hear the audio and stuff but cant see

endrief1 (2010-02-07)

hey I have the same problem as TwisterB. except that i have it all the time. the program opens but the screen always appears white. Sound comes normal and resolution goes on full screen with letterboxing on the side. Any ideas plz

MrEddy (2010-02-07)

You muse use Split/Concat to reform it to a single zip file. Then use stuffit expander to extract the zip file. Thats how you extract this one.

Dubba-C (2010-02-08)

Same problem as endrief1. White gameplay area with letterboxing on the sides. Maybe this matters: I use dual displays on a Mac Pro. Also I'm running Snow Leopard. Any ideas out there? Muchos Gracias for the Cider ports to you who do them. They are awesome!

Dubba-C (2010-02-08)

Update: I got the white screen to go away after turning off my firewall. Apparently NFS must connect somewhere to set up it's video the first time. Cool. BUT: In 1920 x 1080 mode the graphics are narrowed somehow. THe cars look really skinny and feel un-natural. I tried messing with the Resolution settings but the screen goes white and I have to trash the preferences to get it back. Can anyone tell us how to fix the horizontal display issue? Muchas gracias!

Dubba-C (2010-02-09)

I have my settings at 1920 x 1080. The video is skinny looking though, but it plays very well. Careful though, I tried some graphic settings that didn't work and had to find and throw away the settings files to get the default settings back.

cl65 (2010-02-13)

I used split/concat to merge the files together, and then I unpacked them using 'stuffit expander' but every time I open the game the icon jumps in my dock but it doesn't open. ANYONE HELP PLEASE.

gogi010 (2010-02-17)

gogi010 (2010-02-17)

jebo matr daje? kle igrce gor ne da bi razlo?u kako jo nalo?it in zagnt pejt u kurac

zahnib (2010-02-24)

PLEASE HELP!!!! :(
okay I downloaded all 48 files, deleted the 'download from demonoid' thing, tried to make all of the archived files into one with Spilt/Concat but it doesn't work on Snow Leopard. So I used HJSplit instead, that worked. Tried unzipping with Archive Utility, error message saying "Unable to archive "NFSUndercoverMac.zip" into "Need for Speed Undercover".
(Error 1 - Operation not permitted.)
So I tried using The Unarchiver, that worked until it reached the end of the unzip were it said "Could not extract the file "NFS Undercover.dmg" the archive file is corruped" I tried to open the dmg but another error message came up saying "The following disc image could not be opened - Reason not recognised"
This is seriously annoying, if anyone could help it would be ever so grateful : )

Don_16G2 (2010-03-02)

downloaded 4,5 gigs and now have to deal with this extraction shit... sigh...

danilikos (2010-03-20)

Install Stuffit Expander.
By double click run NFSUndercoverMac.zip.001. After extracting run Stuffit by clicking icon in applications folder and put extracted NFSUndercoverMac.zip on Stuffit menu. Then you would see NFSUndercoverMac.dmg.

danilikos (2010-03-20)

if any question, email danilikos_at_gmail.com

freefallingspoon (2010-03-24)

sorry to ask the same question as other people, but im having trouble with dealing with the zips.
ive got the 47 files but when i try and put them through stuffit expander it comes up with an error, saying the files are damaged etc. none of my archiving programs can do anything with them. can someone please give me a really specific outline on what to do. thanks.

freefallingspoon (2010-03-24)

ok, ive got it unzipped etc and the application is now in my HD, but when i open it, the icon just stays in my dock and absolutley nothing happens, no visuals, no sound, no menus, nothing, it just stays there until i click on it, then it quits with no message or anything....

JoeSteves (2010-03-29)

I had to jump through a few hoops with this one (in addition to a reasonably long download time), but in the end it was satisfactory. Thanks for sharing this! :D

Arnoniem10 (2010-03-31)

@freefallingspoon: i got the same problem
does anybody know how the f*ck we solve this problem??

matt172021 (2010-04-03)

experiencing the exact same problem as drop acid. i'm able to extract, but the nfs undercover.app file cant be executed properly. it appears in the dock then disappears.. any suggestions on how to remedy?

m1ngaa (2010-04-22)

freefallingspoon, matt172021, did you guys get the game working somehow? I just got done downloading, extracted all fine with BetterZip, now can't make it to the playing part :(

sigg95 (2010-05-04)

Ok,
Just copy the need for speed game to your application folder...
Worked for me !

chamag1996 (2010-05-09)

Works great on my iMac... Thanks for sharing!

aminozuur (2010-05-10)

Tried everything, couldnt get it to work. It unzips until the last part, then it just dies (i get a message saying its corrups).. Did anybody get it to work ?? I cant even unzip this.. Also tried joining them together and unizipping the full-zipped version.. i'm not wasting any more time on this one..

mokhiok (2010-05-15)

hi... somebody has this game? and somebody is playing this game? i have a problem with top no 11.. there is a drag race and always when i start it will stop for blowing engine.. i dont know what i do there.. anybody can help me?

rockstar85 (2010-05-20)

i got stuffit and i see the dmg but when i click on it i get a message saying it failed to mount... any suggestions? =)

gvkerckh (2010-05-21)

got same problem as drop acid. does anyone know how to solve this?

xxxwillzxxx (2010-05-28)

finnaly got it to work!!!
it works fine i took me ages but i did what every1 said and used Split/Concat to reform it to a single zip file. Then i used stuffit expander to extract the zip file but then i had the problem where when i launched it, it didnt open but just before i gave up i moved the nfs undercover app to the same file as the zips and it worked! so yer hope this helps. game worked fine.
THANKS THE NOOBISH!

dxbhacker (2010-06-14)

thank thenoobish...its working perfectly..
To make it work you must unzip the files...after unzipping you will one single .dmg file run that file, after running it you will see a drive mount of your desktop "NFS Undercover" open the file once you open it.again you will wind another same filename but with different icon...simply drag that file into your APPLICAION folder... and then run the file from you Application folder...
Thanks

ankitku (2010-06-23)

Works perfectly on my Mac, Thank You

youree (2011-02-07)

Thanks for the upload!
but didn't work for me !!!
i have a macbook 2.4 ghz 4gb ram 256mb vram
you have to concat the files with split and concat and extract the zip with stuffit expander and skip verifying the dmg, too slow and the dmg is ok.

piratebaywatch01 (2011-04-01)

The game messed up my video software. At first I couldn't change the resolution in the game, this coused the game to crash (also white screens like the others). I had to set my system pref's to the maximum resolution of the game. The game was really unstable though. When I uninstalled the game by putting it in the trash it messed up my video somewhere. Now, when ever I move a window everything get's blurry.... Anyone got an idea how to solve this?

piratebaywatch01 (2011-04-01)

btw, I'm running a MacBook Pro 13" i7.

rajan55 (2011-06-20)

megalithium (2011-09-20)

hey thenoobish,
I have your file but there is no clear way of doing it. Extracted the first file but the icon bounces around on the dock and nothing happens so thats obviously not the way to do it.
1-What do I do with the other 46 files!
2-HOW do you get it to work EXACTLY.
Thx

jeffdmg (2011-09-24)

hayat357 (2011-10-21)

I am unpaking file with stuffit ..but it is taking too much time to unpack...it look like tat it is hanged...
any idea

ratasticincredidilious (2011-10-24)

You guys have all been blindfolded. Here are the failsafe methods to do it:
1. Download and open the Undercover rar 001 (NOTHING ELSE!!!!!) with stuffit expander.
2. Wait for it to go automatically through all the zip files(yes I mean wait cuz this may take a while)
3. When ALL rars have been extracted, the dmg will be somwhere around 7 gigs, open it and copy application to wherever u like.
4.(This is where Crossover Games comes in) When it's copied, open the game, because this is a port used by wine, Crossover Games will want to open it. If you get an error window popping up ignore it and hit enter. This will happen the first time you open the game.
5. It will work from there on, no error windows, nothing.
So basically, it does work, you just need Crossover Games to run it.
(in other words, its a windows exe file with in a mac package, spooky)

MPAAss (2011-10-27)

Is this an official mac version?

Justin.Isley (2011-10-30)

THE DMG FILE IS CORRUPT. 12 HOURS OF WAITING FOR NOTHING. FUCK YOU

YoMamaIsBeast (2012-09-08)

meattata (2012-09-27)

As per the comment/ instructions of ratasticincredidilious:
I have downloaded the file, extracted the rar files, and copied the application file nfs undercover of 7GB to my applications folder.
On clicking this it does nothing.
I have also downloaded the trial version of crossover.
Please suggest next steps....

Me_gusta25 (2012-10-17)

Will this work on OS X 10.6?

Supnigga (2012-11-13)

wont work.
WHEN I CLICK IT ALL IT DOES IS POP UP THEN EXIT. WTF GUYZ CAN SOMEBODY GIVE US A DAMN RIGHT EXAMPLE.

Supnigga (2012-11-13)

MEATTATA I ALSO FOLLOWED HIS INSTUCTIONS IT WONT WORK

OnMeAtMe (2012-12-28)

there are no following instructions!

OnMeAtMe (2012-12-28)

What can I do? It all are NFSUnderground.zip.001 files. When I open only NFSUnderground.zip, it doesn't work. THIS IS PURE CRAP!

OnMeAtMe (2012-12-28)

THIS IS PURE CRAP, DON'T DOWNLOAD. YOU HAVE TO WAIT 6 HOURS FOR PURE CRAP!

OnMeAtMe (2012-12-28)

I keep getting a notice that the archive is corrupted. I used Transmission for downloading and did a full "Verify Local Data" operation which passed. I used Spilt/Concat to join the segments, and then used OSX to attempt to extract the zip archive. That didn't work. I also tried using "TheUnarchiver" and that gave me the same error. @Riker29 I had the same.

frgchsr (2013-02-15)

How to install this???
Instructions anybody??

drummer99 (2013-03-13)

DOES NOT WORK ON OSX MOUNTAIN LION!!!
I opened the app and automatically it closes. I am on OSX Mountain Lion. I'm disappointed :/

friaug (2013-06-10)

@ratasticincredidilious, i followed your instructions and it was all good until step 4. I opened it, but nothing happened (CrossOver games didn't do anything). Any tips?

friaug (2013-06-21)

@ratasticincredidilious, dude i followed the steps you wrote, but crossover games didn't open, i just clicked on the app and it briefly shoed the icon, but then it disappeared again. Could you be a bit more specific about the 4th step?

17lauh2 (2013-08-04)

CXZ(s) wrappers wont work on mac os x 10.7 or above, if you are still using 10.6(snow leopard) it will work for you i would suggest you to get a wineskin wrapper

MRLEMONADEZ123 (2013-08-20)

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND STOP CRYING PLZ...... You can see that everyone is having problems but that is because of the version.
The CXZ Project is discontinued.
CXZ, CXS & CXSkin Wrappers do NOT work in Mac OS 10.7 Lion anymore, and have a outdated code.
SO DO NOT COMPLAIN NON-STOP ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

MRLEMONADEZ123 (2013-08-20)

The only fix would be for thenoobish to change the wrapper to wineskin......

MRLEMONADEZ123 (2013-08-20)

EVERYONE I FOUND A FIX
YOU WILL NEED WINESKIN
unzip the first file. then copy the item to the desktop.
open up wineskin, make sure you have the latest engine and update.
then create blank wrapper. meanwhile, while its creating open the package contents and copy sharedsupport out. open that file with the new wrapper and when it says The programs executable file currently set in wineskin is not found, Choose the one that says; program files/NFSU/nfs.exe. Close it and use that as the shortcut. It should work!!!!

dylank22 (2013-08-25)

I can confirm that the above instructions work if you follow them correctly. To clarify to those unfamiliar with wine, when he says open the sharedsupport folder with the wrapper he means install software, move folder and then select that. thanks

AUSSIE_G4M3R (2014-04-21)

But i dont get it you can't extract the files?
i tried many things.
