Installing TDU ???


Capimeeen

Recommended Posts

Hello, im pretty new here, and also new to TDU on PC, i do have TDU on Xbox 360.

 

And well, im not sure how to patch the game..

 

Because it says test drive unlimited is not installed on your pc.. i think..

 

and a friend of me told me what to do but im still not sure how, because he told me to add the files manually or somthing.

 

Any help?:o:o:o

The patch thing contains 4 folders:

 

- $PLUGINSDIR

- $R0 (Either letter O or number 0)

- $TEMP

- $_OUTDIR

 

Im not sure where to put the files that are inside.

Cuz it's actually an .exe but it just says: "Test Drive Unlimited is not installed on your PC"

Ok - a couple of questions, don't take any offense at this, I'm just trying to help you get this fixed sooner instead of wasting both our time :D

 

1 - Where is TDU installed?

2 - Where is the patch downloaded?

3 - Was the patch inside a .zip or .rar file when you downloaded it?

4 - Are you familiar with how .zip files work?

5 - What extraction software do you have installed to handle .zip/rar files?

6 - Can you upload screenshots of what's confusing you?

Dang. :// Well, i must either wait on my friend, or find somewhere else to get help. But if/when i get it fixed, can i show pics of cars?

 

Where did you get the game from?

 

A friend. He sent me links .. Piratebay.

 

The actuall game was installed, like it was just ready to run when finished downloaded. And the Megapack was from Piratebay.

 

But i found this site later.

 

[mod edit:] Please do not double post, use the edit button instead. Thanks!

I was in the same boat when I wanted to try the game out before buying it. You need a legit, BOUGHT copy in order to patch and play online. No way around this.

 

I have the game on Xbox. I dont wna buy it on pc to.. waste of money imo. Im not saying its a bad game but its just unnessesairy to have two of same game if you ask me.

Therein lies the problem and ambiguity of software "piracy"...but I don't think this is up for debate on this website. You either need to buy another copy, or play single player without the patch.

The megapack activates itself over the Internet when you launch the game. It then ties the megapack serial to the game serial under your account. Since you are using your account with someone else's game serial - it refuses to work for you.
