[RELEASED] Test Drive Unlimited Platinum - v1.21

[Aficolombian]

Works like a charm mate... Thanks...

[Ramdude78]

Managed to get everything updated and working,having a blast so far. Just curious if any of the online stuff is still available (stuff like multiplayer races,custom challenges,trading,etc)

[Ryzza5]

Just cruising for now, but who knows what we'll get to play with in the future. There are some very talented people out there.

Esse tdu Platinum tá lindo de mais

Probably a stupid question, but is the opponent AI being very erratic and slow normal for the base game or is that a symptom of a messed up install? I downloaded the game ages ago but for some reason never gave it a proper try and it seems perfect besides AI in much faster cars deciding to take Ragunathan-tier racing lines in the dirt, smacking every wall and generally letting me beat Ferraris in a Fiat Coupe. I'd like to get a decent challenge if possible. Traffic works fine so I don't think it's the >60 FPS physics bug.

Nicely done.  Consider adding this to the Downloads area of the website before it gets lost on Page 127 here. 

Done. Glad it works for you ppl. I haven't encountered another softlock since then btw.

Any update at 2024 ?

when I play, 90% of cars are simply invisible. I feel like I've tried every possible combination of installation methods, even using different patches and fixes. Nothing seems to work. It also keeps cars from loading in on most races so I can't even start the race. I'm not sure what I've done wrong, but I even tried completely wiping my guest PC and installing the mods on there exactly as the instructions say and I still can't get it to work. I have everything from DirectX9 to MS Redistributables installed and I am having no luck, despite spending multiple days on attempting every combination I can think of with online sources. Please, if anyone knows the exact process of what I'm supposed to do I would greatly appreciate them sharing it.

Does the game work correctly for you before installing the Platinum mod?

Yeah it does, also I think I've found the issue. No matter what settings I use (including a variety of settings with Voodoo) the game changes to 120fps when in dealerships, the map, and in loading screens. It forces 60FPS everywhere else, but I'm nearly positive this is what's causing my issue.

120fps

It may not work, but inside the Project Paradise launcher window, select(tick) only checkboxes: Vsync ; fx tweak OFF ; Big .bnk

(Vsync checkbox is about fps), assuming that you are not missing any files inside Euro/Bnk/Vehicules/Traffic/. i think that you have said that traffic worked in original, non Platinum game). Some custom mods (if you have applied any) may cause issues.

When you facing this problem again. You should be notice there'll no road or road got cutten that makes you fall into a endless loading screen. When you see that road, you should go to the Map Menu immediately.

Enable bigbnk in the launcher.

In addition to enabling "big bnk" in the launcher as mentioned above, ensure that a copy of "d3d9.dll" is in the game's root directory. (It comes with the Platinum Patch bundle in *\Euro\Bnk\Database\ .) This fixed it for me.

Having d3d9.dll in the folder causes my game to crash immediately. So I can choose between a few percent working or none.

This thing just doesn't bloody work on windows 10.
