Hey guys, It's been a long time ago since i was here. Unfortunately i didn't finished my last projects as you know for sure, maybe because i've done a lot of mods and i was kinda get bored of it, also get other things in my life to do at that time and i just began to forget about TDU. Of course i don't make mods anymore, but i saw TDU Platinum project in the days and i got the feel to play TDU a bit again. I just wanted to say "hi" again to the old good TDU community here, and apologize for my disappear without any words, i mean im sure there was at least a few people who may waited for the w.i.p projects. I want to give a huge thanks for everyone who use(d) and enjoy(ed) my mods, since i got a lot of positive feedbacks, what i really appreciate. Anyway, have fun everyone, maybe we will see each other sometime on the old little island... Cheers, Norby931

v1.06 is out. Lol

FAQ: Q: I sometimes get sudden and massive FPS drops! A: Use the 4gb exes provided in the patches. Q: Is this online? A: Yes. It requires Project Paradise to work, which is an online mod among other things. Q: Can you add X car or change Z about Y car? A: Nope! Milli isn't going to add any more cars to Platinum, and she didn't make any of the cars that are included. Adding them yourself isn't hard though, and there are several tutorials! Q: Is there a way to haxor my way to max level? A: Nope! Unless you use an uploaded max save, there is no way to cheat your way to max level. Q: is there a way to haxor my monies to have unlimited funds? A: Yes. There is one way. It involves Cheat Engine. Use Google Q: Alt-Tabbing crashes TDU! A: Alt-tabbing crashes TDU. Always has, always will. On Windows 10 you can get away with using the Start button on your keyboard to accomplish the same thing MOST OF THE TIME though. The only real solution is to run windowed mode and use external software to force it to fullscreen borderless. Q: Controller keybinds and mapping questions! A: Any Xinput controller will work out of the box with TDU. For non Xinput controllers you will need an emulation software. All keybinds will work, except the map. For complicated reasons, just use your mouse to navigate the map. Q: Halp my game is borked! A: Very descriptive. In all seriousness though most issues with Platinum can be solved by simply reinstalling the mod. It overwrites nearly all of TDU's core files, so the act of installing it from your original download can fix nearly any issue with the install. There is a video with install instructions and a download for the original TDU. Follow the steps in either the video or in the readme of the download and you should have zero issues. Q: Halp my game is still borked after I did what you said! A: Gonna need more information than "it's broken" in order to even attempt to help you. There is literally millions of potential reasons for a game to break seemingly without cause. Could be anything from drivers to unsupported resolutions. Hope that's helpful

Its a huge list which is why I uploaded all the folder, but I will try to remember, this includes most vehicle variants like bodykits unless otherwise specified: There are couple of sounds that were in platinum that I've switched around, for example the 430 Scuderia sound is now on the normal F430 while the Scuderia got a newer, more aggressive sound. cheers

I've been enjoying this mod so far, but one thing that bothered me slightly was the sounds of some cars, some re-used original Atari sounds and/or had inaccurate sounds. Since I had various sound mods released over the past 10 years in my HDD which are now long lost on the Internet, I took initiative upon myself to add unique sounds for most cars in the pack. What I did: -Added new sounds for multiple cars (Including ones unlockable by tuning shop) -Sounds for most cars are unique to themselves or ones with similar engine. (Example: VR6 engine cars) -Matched sounds for cars that use the same engine (Example: E46 M3 and Wiesmann Roadster) I hope it gets included in the next update, I'll upload the file for anyone who would like the file here

I have no idea. Try the torrent though. By the way, v1.07 of the update is out, and it brings many things, actually. - Fixed rarity of Audi Quattro Sport. - Fixed engine type of BMW M4 F82. - Fixed and replaced some car sounds. - Reworked dealership lighting. - Re-ordered the days, so fog weather won't be displayed so often when you start the game.

Hello all. Been lurking for ages and decided to finally make an account. Short story; When I was a kid I bought an original Xbox at a thrift store for $25. It came with one controller and four games. Project Gotham Racing, NFS Underground 2, Midnight Club 2, and Test Drive (Called TD Overdrive: Brotherhood of Speed for everyone outside NA. . Over time I collected more games; Midnight Club 3, MC3: Dub and Remix, 4x4 Offroad, PGR2, a couple of rally games, and probably a dozen or more others. By the time the HD era arrived and the Xbox 360 came out my OG Xbox was starting to show it's age and use. I actually had to gently punch the top to get it to read games sometimes! So I had moved to PC gaming with titles like GT Legends, Colin McRae, and more. Then my childhood friend made me an offer I couldn't refuse. My $400 Fujitsu Business laptop for a lightly used Xbox 360. It came with 4 controllers, 50+ games, and the HD AV cables. One of those many games was Test Drive Unlimited. After making a gamertag and convincing my parents that it was totally a good idea to pay for Live for me, the first game I tried was TDU. Over the years between then and now I played many games of every genre, but the only game that doesn't say The Elder Scrolls on it that I clearly remember starting it up for the first time is TDU. The graphics, the physics (remember, first X360 racing game), the sounds, and the massive for the time map. TDU is what really made me love cars. And, I made some online friends that turned into IRL friends that I still have. There has been a million racing games before and since TDU, and half of them are better racing games. But aside from NFSU2, none of them have the magic. None have had me spending hours figuring out how to make them run on a modern system. So thanks. Thank you Turboduck for still being around all these years. Thank you Speeder and Milli for your efforts, PP and Platinum are why I found this again. Also thank you to all the great people I've met in the last month on the game. Amazing to see how far a community will go to keep a game alive when it deserves it. Okay I'm done. See you on the streets.

You asked why you couldn't see the vehicles in the Platinum thread, which i told you that was an issue with bigbnk not being activated. You then proceeded and told me, via PM, that you have it activated. I told you to check if Project Paradise is working at all. You apparently didn't get that, and couldn't wait to get a reply, and sent me another one, demanding a reply, like that's my duty. I told you to re-download Project Paradise and re-install it, read the READ ME files that comes with it and said that yes, i can't read it for you. Which is a fact. Then here, you comfirmed that you deleted d3d9.dll, and that's why, exactly why you couldn't see the vehicles. Because your Project Paradise is not working, therefore, bigbnk is not working aswell. So no, without d3d9.dll your bigbnk is NOT enabled, because it is NOT working at all. What you want, is someone to tell you what to do. Because i really doubt you've read all the 96 pages of this thread. But here we go again. Reinstall a TDU Copy. Copy the files of TDU Platinum over the game folder. Download Project Paradise, copy the files inside the Test Drive Unlimited folder. Run Project Paradise Laucher.exe as admin, make sure to select your TestDriveUnlimited.exe in the launcher, mark check on bigbnk. P.S. Make sure you are NOT running these .exes files with ANY compability mode. Edit: And note that you could have made a post here all along and get help from different people, from the whole forum at any timezone, instead of send me a PM, and get only a reply from me, when i actually can. But yeah, i am rude. I can live with that.

Hello, I updated the list, posted renders of new models and updated the old ones. Cars update:

Decided to drive a bit today, and joined a random session. A player, SChloe83 recognized me as soon as i joined him and his friends session. And then from there, the session grew, even @TDU Iceman showed up. SChole83 - Ferrari 812 Superfast Reymondox_122 - Lamborghini Huracan Performante SinZeroLML - Lamborghini Centenário BlakeBelladonna - Hennessey Venom GT / Jaguar XKR-S TDU Iceman - Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa GReddy4002 - Toyota Supra RZ

I love making HUD's now. I'm not the best by a long shot but I feel like I get better with each one.

Yes i did. Platinum have 10 Default Cars added, each with 4 set of rims and 20 base colors, and they all are already added inside a dealer, all you'd need to do is edit those, as people have been doing since ever. Replace the files, edit the physics and the rim size if necessary.

View File TDU Colors - Guide This file has a preview of all usable TDU colors. It's a great guide for those who want to add a new color for the vehicles directly in the database. The name of each preview image is actually the name of the color code in the database. Submitter Milli Submitted 06/15/2019 Category Tools  

An early access (Club Exclusive, lmao) of the sound update, untill i gather more stuff to release update v1.08. This only changes the sound files of the SLR Mclaren and the R8 V10 Plus. Mini_SoundUpdate_EarlyAccess.zip

Hi, something did corrupt TDUF configuration file, it seems. To solve this, delete file at Users\You\.tduf\tduf.properties then restart the tool. You will have to set TDU Database directory again, though. I'm aware of global crash when configuration is corrupt, that's a thing I have to fix on a future release (but I don't have planned it yet).

I remember playing Midnight Club when I was younger. Cool times

In TDUF, under Wheels make sure your Default rim size is smaller then the Available rim sizes. e.g. if the Available rim size is 18", make sure the Deafault rim size is 17" or 16"

She said many times she won't add any vehicles. But you can either: replace one of the 10 slots made specifically for modding or add a new slot with the help the wiki guide and tutorial.

right click the file and make a copy to your google drive. It bypasses the download limit by making it your own

Are you still there ? If not, I just reply for every people reading the forums. [email protected]_$HOTGUN made an awesome detailed tutorial a few years ago. Link is still working ! One simple guy who was just really motivated for converting car models into TDU (Pator5) learned a lot from these tutorials and managed to release some great mods like the Ferraris 250 GT Lusso and California. Anyone who have time to spend, lots of motivation and patience can make a car. And if someone is starting something but need support, there is my thread for that where we support each other:

Hi everyone, I would really like to learn how to make my own car mods for the game and help contribute more cars for everyone to enjoy for free and am hoping someone can point me to the tools I need to convert the models for cars for TDU and how to do it. Thank you

You have to install the first upgrade that replaces the car with the modified body, then go back if you want to upgrade the performance further. It is done this way, so you can give stock cars the unique performance without the looks.

Excellent work... we've come so far since the baby steps of the Community Megapack and UCP.

Nice fix, added to the FAQ

Damm, it worked, did not expect this to fix it, but all i did was download C++ 2015 - 2019 both x64 and x86, installed them and now it's connecting Here is the link to download Visual C++ 2015-2019 https://support.microsoft.com/pt-br/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads

FIXED IT! I REPAIRED ALL OF MY REDIST VERSION (2013 TO 2017) AND NOW PROJECT PARADISE IS WORKING

Welcome Blake, I enjoyed reading your story as it reminded me of the first time I played too. Great to have you here with us. TDU1 still has a massive map if you compare it to Forza Horizon and recent Need for Speed games. It wasn't just the size too, but the detail of numerous residential streets. Even if we rarely drove on them, it still added to the realism. I remember getting into a free-ride police chase in single player mode the first time I played, and thought I could lose them by driving off-road tbetween the trees, which didn't work. I remember eventually evading them and then wondering 'where the heck am I now?'

Yeah, as Milli said, no matter which tool you'll be using, the process is not straightforward and requires serious amount of time and many attempts A few hints if you wanna start the journey no matter what: - it's always easier using reserved slots for new cars that creating new ones. I've created empty, pre-configured slots in TDUCP 2.0, I dunno if Milli did the same with TDU Platinum (they are not compatible with each other). If that's not the case, for the sake of understanding you may have to make another TDU install on your hdd and apply TDUCP2.0 for training. See TDUCP tutorials on GitHub. When you master TDUCP, you should be able to enrich TDU Platinum - To make new vehicle visible, you have to: assign it to a proper Car_Id in car physics, which has to be unique value make sure Bnk1.map file (ultra map) has been updated to make TDU accept new bnk file names locate slot (=Item in car physics data) into a dealer (or v-rent) And sure many points I've forgotten. Besides, a tutorial (written by @Tob-Racer if I remember well), details the process manually. Although things have evolved since then, I think it's always a valuable information to help understanding how mechanics are. You may also ask questions in 'School of modding' thread, as it's beyond TDUF scope And... good luck!

Awesome thank you

It may be due to lack of funds to build the runway. I think.

Hi, TDUF was meant to be used with Java 8, but it's not maintainded by Oracle anymore. So just added quick&dirty hotfix for people willing to use TDUF with Java 9/10. Though I have to figure a long-term solution out, as the trick does not work with Java 11+ sadly More details in download page: Thanks. TDUF-1.12.0-HOTFIX-JAVA-9-10.zip

No, there isn't. Welcome to TDU modding. Rulezz mods usually won't work with many rims. The Sileighty is like that, it only works with certain type of wheels. Because you see, original TDU tires are usually linked to the car file, and the rim is just a rim. And that is why usually, you get this kind of thing: In order to avoid such problems, with the rim size not matching the tires, modders started to delete the tire from the car itself, and make the rim together with the tire, so they will never display that issue. The problem is, most rims are "tireless", and those mods, that have the rim linked to the tire in the same file, will also vary their sizes, because it depends from which vehicle they are for. So, usually, the best and safest route is to use only the rims sent with the mod, because those are the ones that are properlly sized and have the tires linked to them.

For my feedback regarding the current updates, about the expert AI mod, yeah gives me a run for my money, between checkpoint 2 and 4 in "Tour of the Island" race, that one AI racer pushes the limits of stock top speed, only my upgraded top speed can surpass it, this will be challenging in bike races supposedly as well. 97% progression, 5,000 mile achievement is the only one to get the Ace rank, TDU:P made the game more fun to play, having 70+ hrs in my game time in stats lol.

Its cumulative. The newest patch always includes everything of the older versions.

Thinking about organize a meet in-game. What you guys think?

v1.05 is up. For those who had v1.04, all you need to replace is the race Time04.ige and the DB.bnk files.

Raced the Clio against Milli...... she knows Ford Island.. lol.

Voilà

The Tacoma is done! Texturing took longer than the modeling, spent the whole day today mapping, baking and texturing But this must be the fastest modeling job of a complete car I did yet, meaning with texturing and stuff. But hey, it's below 2k polys, so it would be weird when it'd take longer, really. Asset details: Polycount: 1.798 specific textures used: 5 (512x512 DXT1 no alpha, 512x512 DXT5, 256x256 DXT1 no alpha, 256x256 DXT1 no alpha, 128x128 DXT1 no alpha) - the 512x512 DXT5 might be scaled down later. Duration: 3 days Nice to have it done, since I need to work tomorrow again and I would have totally lost the track of the model then. But yeah, one down, more to come! PS: As for rims, I will make own rims with a 128x128 DXT1 texture, but I am not sure if there is enough texture space left for it. I hope so, otherwise I'll use a TDU traffic rim with a common car normal. Which I don't want, actually.
