Patch 2.00 is not compatible with platinum you will have to play without it or install it separately from platinum

i am wondering how it looks like/screenshot. If is related to network, then it was suggested to try use VPN (proton.me has free good one), project paradise launcher need to be used to launch game, use default checkboxes, big bnk checked.

If you have modified project paradise launcher settings from default, try to revert it (especially graphic related ones), same for in game video settings - maybe try to decrease it. It is likely i am wrong, maybe related to something else like graphic drivers.

Try reinstalling the game and platinum, perhaps during the installation of the game or platinum, the game files were not copied or were damaged

In the controls menu, you have one labeled as "start".  That is the button you need to press to turn your car ignition on. If you leave it unnassigned, throttle button with turn it on automatically.

i noticed some police cars, or they were taxis, turns to another color from white to red, when you crash into them.

Solo race allows you to play single races and complete tasks in hardcore mode and online mode too

I remember months ago, when we met in-game, you were already working on this ... Cherookee, I hope you did other things for the game meantime! Please rassure us huh!

Also, I recently moved from Win XP to 7, then I can use TDUF, I tried to modify 911 R's wrong gear ratios, I tried with both TDUF versions (v1.13.1 & v2.0.0), game off, I launched the DB with them, properly cleaned up cache everytime, edited the gear ratios to values that could make max RPM on each gear close to the real 911 R's ones, then saved. But this does not work as expected, the 2nd gear, which originally reaches ~165 km/h in-game, now reaches 150 km/h whatever the ratio value I put. WTF is this crap? Is the program fucked up or there is a specific trick to make it work properly?

And what is the "Final ratio" on it? The possible 8th gear or the bridge's one (changing it did not have any effect).

And just by default, 911 GT3 RS (991) has its 2nd ratio to 2.38, 911 R's to 2.29, but one hits around 120 km/h on limiter, the other 160+... While the difference should not have such gap knowing they both have same engine/RPM (911 R is a 991.1 GT3 RS without rear spoiler & extras & manual gearbox, and PDK vs manual ratios are same till 4th, they change from 5th, check here).

911 R's has different handling than GT3s, it is a way more pleasant to drive (while the GT3s 991 are too grippy with TC off, not normal, which make their driving unpleasant), except its too long gear ratios.

So Milli, could you try to modify 911 R's ratio on your DB & test if this works for you, or, tell me what is wrong & how to change them properly? If there is a trick or else. Thanks.

The mod is great but there are like 2 dealerships that only have cars named "TDU Platinium Mod Custom Car [number]" some of them seem to be broken models of some irl cars. Is it a known issue or the mod installed incorrectly for me?

Hardcore mode is designed for the steering wheel but can also be used on the keyboard this mode makes the game more realistic that is, in hardcore mode your car will drive like in real life

Try restarting the game and also check the graphics settings and your graphics card

Actually install the base game from a .iso file. TDU Platinum is a mod, not a standalone game. Yet. 

[Blobbem]

I can't see to get this mod to work on my PC (Windows 10). I've tried all that I can think of to get it to work and followed all the instructions to the letter. I've downloaded Test Drive Unlimited ISO that's been patched to 1.66A, I've installed DirectX9 and made sure that DirectPlay is enabled, installed the Megapack, installed the NoDVD for 1.66A, made the program use Windows XP (Service Pack 3) compatibility and ran as administrator, used the TDU Registry Fixer, made sure to install TDU Platinum 1.0 first and then installed TDU Platinum 1.21, ensured that the Project Paradise Launcher pointed to the correct TestDriveUnlimited.exe file, made sure that "Big .bnk" was checked, and even turned on Vsync. The game tries to launch, but I am instantly met with a black screen for like a second before it crashes to the desktop.

 

Bollocks, I got it to work. Turns out, Compatibility Mode was messing with it. Well, I feel like a right tosser.

Corrected a mistake.

Anyone can upload the sound file (or tell me where is in the platinum mod) of lamborghini centenario and porsche 959?? I not have the sound in game, probabilmente because I install the sound pack for platinum for porsche and lamborghini,  thanks!
