TDU Unofficial Community Megapack 2 (Open Beta released)

[Jack_Newl]

Just reading again the thread and yep that's interesting. If we can add brand new slots and we go play online, Two options:

- Will these new slots will be considered like cars who haven't been download just like back in time with Atari's servers and people with or without the megapack ?

OR

- As Civicman said, Will the game crash ?

 

If the game would crash, will it be possible to unlock the online part of the game for these new slots? If yes Should we all have an evolution of Project Paradise plus a brand new unofficial patch. 1.70 I've read today :D

 

OR ! Is it impossible to answer these question today ? :lol:

 

It has already happened !The rest is just a matter of time ! That crash the game ,I have everything unlocked ,and no problems Online, no !

More progress pics:

 

 

Dodge Challenger SRT-8, old model as no 392 Hemi model converted to TDU yet.

Ford Mustang Boss 302, easy car to do controlled drifts in. :)

Fiat Coupe, what it lacks in handling it makes up for its high top speed.

Ferrari website shows only 3 colors for LaFerrari: Red, Yellow and Black. But Jay Kay has a green LaFerrari so you can have one too.

Honda NSX-R GT

 

 

 

But we will be able to add about 40 car max and that's enough!

New slots would be different from megapack, base TDU game has all the megapack car slots added in 1.66 database but in an idle form, a lot like this mod.

 

Theoretically, for new slots to work online. All players must have the same entries in the database so the game doesn't crash otherwise the game would try to load up something that doesn't exist in the database. New slots from scratch will be my next project but with close collaboration with 2CV SUPER GT to ensure that they work online safely for everyone as a new "1.70" patch.

 

edit: Jaguar XKR-S just finished

GO GET YOUR MODDER BADGE :D NOW !

 

Incredible work man ! I'm just so happy to see my all time favorite game getting even better... in 2015 !

 

Almost 10 years this game exist and we still improve it today ! Honestly, I just can't believe all the possibilities that game finally have. And all that, it's because of people like you, Djey, 2CV Super GT, Speeder, Lean, Combat Shotgun, PhatPunk, StarGT, aceVT, DJTinnio, tomek and so many other great modders.

 

From my heart, and I'm not kidding ! THANK YOU ! :sadeyes::cheers: BIG THANKS ALSO TO EVERYBODY ELSE WHO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS MARVELOUS GAME.

 

I know I've already said Thank you in the past, but it's just simply not enough :lol:

So is this mean we all must have mods you'll choose for the car pack ? Sorry that doesn't sound good

[Icosy]

As i understand it, just database entries have to be same, bodyswap would still be possible as any other car slot that comes standard...might be wrong tho, so take it with reserve.

[Pator5]

That takes us way back , Speeder and Lean made a great job with Project Paradise , everyone can drive anything they wants this is little bit backwards IMO ...

[Icosy]

Not really, what i meant with bodyswap is take for example that XKR-S that is added as slot by this mod...you can use that slot for any other car, we just have to have same database entries online, which do not effect the car (as in car name, physics, or the look of it in the game), i will see XKR-S, you will see what you put on it

 

it will essentially be as changing the r34 skyline gtr to anything else, as we all have skyline in DB, just on a slot that wasnt available to us until now.

Progress on Lamborghini

 

 

 

Lamborghini Aventador mod by TDUZoqqer, two rim selections and all exterior+interior color combos are intact.

Diablo SV, still WIP

You don't have to, at release i'll provide a readme with every filename so players can replace cars with anything they like. :) so for example if you don't like E92 M3 you can replace it with any other mod, just like a normal atari car.

 

Also its 38 new cars added to the game I don't see why you're complaining about extra vehicles, more room to replace with other mods.

[Pator5]

In that case i apologize. This is really big , Thank you for your work and i want to join Tob-Racer " Give this man a modder badge" !!! :D

[Revan174]

Wow. I've just recently gotten back into TDU (yet again) and apart from just being able to go online again thanks to Project Paradise, this is one of the coolest things for TDU I've ever seen!

 

Thank you for all your hard work so far, and like many others I'm excited for the finished product :D

[civicmanvtec]

Finished most of the cars, only Toyota Supra, GT86 and Porsche left then assigning HUD and final adjustments. Hopefully first release can be sometime next week. :)

Nissan GT-R

Shelby 427, minimal work was needed for this.

 

 

 

Currently I'm working on the bike slot.

[Automotive Gaming]

What's planned for the bike slots?

Originally Suzuki GSX-R 1000, but during testing there were some crashes so there's Default Bike for now, I'll have another attempt after I finish everything else.

[civicmanvtec]

All cars complete. right now in the final phases of assigning colors, physics adjusting and testing.

Porsche Carrera GT

I'm not sure if mod progress updates override double posting rules but I've got a bit more updates regarding tuning packs

 

Mercedes-Benz C63 Black Series, if you remember there was an early wip pic of it showing stage 2, its now fixed.

 

It seems to be easy to add tuning packs to all cars lacking one, as of now, some cars in pack have one already (RX8 and Diablo SV for example) while others don't like this C63. I'm not sure if I'll add car packs in initial release because I'd rather finish this off faster and start experimenting adding brand new car slots. :)

[Milli]

Take your time, like, seriously! :lol:

[Automotive Gaming]

What you mean about tuning packs?

Like the Alfa Romeo GT / the Mustang GT (so this means also assigning different 3D data :drool: ) or just specs upgrades?

Great news !

 

And we are not in a hurry ;)

I recommend to make a first release without new tuning packs, because that has a consequence : car models may change if you choose to tune the vehicle.

Some people like to use new slots to put any mod of their choice, so this could lead to unconsistency (e.g tuning a C63 with BRABUS/AMG would make a totally different brand/car vehicle to appear instead - and there's no way back ?) .

 

Not sure I am very clear ... :)

[Milli]

I think that what he meant is that it's easy, for example, make the S281 Extreme Coupe tuneable. Which once was a Mustang tuned in level 3, can now work as a different car, in stage 0, and have the ability to be tuned, like any Skyline R34. :lol:

Specs upgrades, although the higher stage(2 and 3) Alfa GT/350Z tuning kits were made into their own cars already. As shown in this early image

 

Great news !

Tuning kits don't appear to change vehicle models unless you specially assign them, I ported CLK 55 kit into C63 and it worked without problems but I don't know what the online interaction affects will be and its a low priority project anyway.

That's exactly what I meant. :)

Hey, if isn't ask much, can you fix the mclaren F1 GT front wheel bug aswell? It goes under the ground... :lol:

[rebelinho]

Somebody build this man a statue!

 

And for the elevation to God, I expect a afirmative answer: will I be able to install cars over this mod? This is, if I want a car that isn't included, can I do it?

[civicmanvtec]

Is this any better?

To do this is quite simple, just edit the Ride Height (Max) of the front to 205mm using TDUMT

Yes, in the file I'll be including a text that shows what file names correspond to what car slot, for example:

 

Ferrari F50

 

Body: F50

Sound: F50_audio

Rims: F50_F_01 (Ferrari) <- bracket indicates rim folder

HUD: F50

 

Also included separately in release I'll include updated xml and cardata.mdb files for TDUMT and TDUPE respectively as they lack the data for some of the slots.
