Description:
This mod enables PS2 (Playstation 2) style rendering on the vehicles in game.
Requirements:
You will need a US 1.0 Exe. If you can run the game at all, you should be able to use this mod. There are no special shaders or anything fancy. It's a very simple mod, created for those who prefer the PS2 look, and/or who have low end machines.
Installation:
Install an .asi loader for SA. I used the one by JernejL:

Put "sagfx_ps2.asi" in the SA root folder.
That's it, there are no parameters to edit.
Optional, but recommended:
Replace the "timecyc.dat" file in your data folder, with the one I provided, which will make the sun actually illuminate objects, most notably vehicles and pedestrians. If you have another PS2-style mod installed that replaces the timecyc file, you can skip this.

This mod MAY be redistributed without asking me, as long as this readme file is included and is not changed. But a link to the mod you're attaching it to would be nice
