The XAR Mod seeks to offer more realistic air racing options within the confines of the Xtreme Air Racing engine while adding several new aircraft to the game. The XAR Mod adds 15 new aircraft to the Unlimited class as well as unlocking the Formula 1 class which was not originally available. Most of the textures for the courses have been replaced with higher resolution textures to improve the gameplay experience. Track, Difficulty, and Engine selection have all been revamped to offer racing options more reflective of actual pylon air racing.

Instructions:

Simply click on the "XAR Mod Installer.exe" program and follow the instructions

to install the mod.

If for some reason you did not originally install Xtreme Air Racing in the default

directory (C:XtremeAir) you will need to input the correct directory when prompted

by the installer program.

*Note: This mod works best if when you originally installed Xtreme Air Racing you set the cache size to be much larger than the default size of 60 MB. Personally I have mine set at 2048 MB (a bit overkill) to ensure that some of the larger textures, such as the new Reno ground texture, can load without issue.

I did find that on an older machine with a smaller cache size for the game, that the Reno ground texture did not load. If this is the case for you and you do not want to uninstall and reinstall everything, you can simply delete the Rtest2.rgb file from the game directory to revert back to the original Reno ground texture.
