Recommended mods
Draft · under reviewThese are the app mods (tools that live in apps/) the community uses most — not cars or tracks. They’re all stable, good-looking and quick to get going. For how to install them, see the previous level, Installing mods.
Most of these require CSP, and some need a fairly recent version. If one doesn’t show up, check your CSP first.
HUD / interface
Comfy Map
A clean track map showing you and other cars — especially useful on long cruise maps like Shutoko.
NFS World Speedometer UI
A Need for Speed: World styled speedometer. Requires CSP 3.0 or newer.
CMRT Essential HUD
A compact panel that gathers the readouts you check most into one place.
Better Essentials
A visual overhaul of the stock essential widgets.
Gamepad assists

Advanced Gamepad Assist
A7 Assist

The stock chase cam is fairly static; these give the camera some life.
