Xan, we appreciate your efforts and time you've put on this game when there are more popular games on this franchise to mod. But as a retro NFS casual player I've noticed the little but active community prefers the v2.40 instead of v2.42 for the following reasons (collected by me from various Discord servers):
Back in time, v2.40 won a poll on IPLounge.
Again back in time v2.42 was barely played on GameSpy.
There's another German gaming group (which I don't know, but it might be another little community besides those 2 where I'm in) that also plays v2.40.
v2.42 had better copy protection and it is incompatible with v2.40 for online gaming. There was (maybe is) more servers on v2.40.
Wheel controller glitches in v2.42
I'm still asking people that plays this game more often than I do, and will extend this list as I get more info. But the oldies that still play this game would love to enjoy this game on the most popular version. If it does not take you a lot of time ¿would you mind build it for v2.40?
Thank you in advance and we hope to hear from you soon.

No need to write it up as a petition though, I'm just one person working on this after all 😄
As a matter of fact, I've already started porting the code to an entirely different build of the game.
All it needs is addresses for the injector, the rest of the stuff is already written.
Ideally, this would be written with the pattern detector, kind of like what ThirteenAG's WS Fix does here so it would be compatible with any similar version without hardcoded adresses.
And yes, I do know of the issues with the multiplayer. I was thinking of patching out the "copy protection" features at some point. Not even LAN works on 2 copies of the game that I have locally. I just didn't think about it being specifically being tied to v242.
