TDU1 first race bug

Greeny908 · October 10

The game runs fine until the first race. When I try to start the first race, it won't let me click start and the camera is just there spinning around.

I have gathered from really old forum posts that this was some kind of anti-piracy measure. I have not pirated the game, I own and use a legit CD-ROM. I am running Windows 10. How do you fix this?

Have you tried the compatibility mode or reinstalled the game?

I faced the same issue.

For me it helped when I installed the Platinum Mod, then everything worked.

Even the "289 races" Mod works like a charm, together with this "Race Pack":

You're gonna have to use a no CD patch, I'm surprised the game can even launch on windows 10 as it uses SecuROM DRM which IIRC isn't even officially supported anymore, so it shouldn't be expected to work on a recent OS, TDU Platinum probably include a no CD patch that's probably why it fixes it.
