After months of not being able to understand why the game would black screen then not start ( windows 10 ) I finally have an answer. Anyone trying to run surround sound through windows can have a problem with a litany of games. But TDU ( even base game not Platinum or any other custom version ) does not like having the Default Format set to either Dolby Digital Live or DTS Interactive. If you are getting a black screen after startup even on a fresh install of windows 10/TDU, try changing your sound options in Your audio device properties. What is boxed in red does not work. The blue highlight is what I have currently selected. How to get to this page. Right click the speaker icon on the bottom right of the screen>Volume mixer>Click the icon for what you are using>Go to advanced tab and select any option but surround options. Exclusive modes dont change anything.

Use the 4gb executables provided in the patch 1.12 The reason why that happens is not because of your computer, but an issue with some cars and the original tdu.exe. Original TDU.exe can only use 1gb of ram memory, and some cars, like that R33, have some bug that causes a memory leak (will be fixed in the update), which makes the .exe need to use beyond 1gb of ram. Once it asks for more, the game bottle necks it, causing that issue. With the 4gb executables, that memory usage gets bumped to 4gb. I won't say it will completelly fix it, but it sure will take a LOT longer to happen.
