Yeah I'll be there, my mates are skint until next week so no fun this weekend. :(

Alright I have had a few PM's about this so I guess it's about time I posted how this is done, after all it has been about 6months. lol Alrighty first things first you will need to find out some method of transferring your Photo file from your Xbox 360 to your PC. Now there are about 4 means to do this but as they involve some serious modifications and soldering and could run the risk of damaging your HDD or even your 360 itself we will not be discussing those but feel free to search for them yourself if you want to pursue that method. Anyway there's 2 easy methods* but they require a purchase, these 2 are the Datel Transfer Kit and the XSATA device, These range from $15/50 (£10/40). !!! DO NOT INSTALL THE DRIVERS OR FILES YOU GET ON THE CD, YOU DON'T NEED THEM AND THEY WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CAUSE YOU PROBLEMS !!! *** DOWNLOAD THESE DRIVERS INSTEAD *** First of all you require 2 pieces of software: Xplorer 360 (right-click Save As) and WinHex (You'll have to search for this). Step #1: Transfer your Photo file to your device by either copying to a Memory Card or just connecting your XSATA device directly via USB. Step #2: Open Xplorer 360 and select Drive > Hard Drive or Memcard. Step #3: Select the Partition which lists info like the below. Find the Folder shown below and then select your Photo file. Now either Drag and drop or Right-click > Extract: Step #4: Open WinHex. Step #5: The photo file is a hex file as you can see by all the characters on your screen but those characters are actually your photo files in JPG format. To extract them we need to use WinHex by Step #6: Select JPG format and choose a folder to save to and click OK. Step #7: That's it, goto the folder you specified and look at your shiny new pics !! Note not all will extract sucessfully but some might be saveable if opened in Photoshop or the like and may just need a small crop. Enjoy !! *Note: This is just a guide, it may and it may not work for your system, you follow it at your own risk. Should anything go wrong it's on your own head be it, we just showed you a method that worked for us and others.

Hi there B1gSmurf (are you blue by any chance?) welcome to the board and I'm sure we'll see you around on the island. Also check out the threads in the TDU section as there are a couple of cruises coming up in the next few days.

That sounds very cool actually, I should be able to make Sunday and I'll be in an Rturbo.

If I knew of the page that I could link to I would add it in but I haven't been able to find anything to link to. :( And welcome to the board Rihani, a lot of people have been waiting for a game like this, myself included.

Hi there TOOL, welcome to the board and yeah this game is a great deal of fun, in fact I been waiting for a game like this for ages !

Carlist anyone? Some more still tba but good none the less: http://forzamotorsport.net/news/announcements/carlist.htm

The F40 is from 1987 and was one of the first road cars to do 200mph and is completely raw which is why it's regarded in history as one of the ultimate supercars. You have to remember Atari would have to source each of these cars to get the recording of the engine sound right and also record at 500rpm intervals all the way to redline (so I hear) to get even close to an accurate representation and I don't think there's many people around or Atari had the resources and money to send their people out to do all of this. I have a feeling TDU2 will be better in this respect though as Atari aren't in as much trouble and it's what the community wants, we don't want TDU to follow PD's path of engine sound application in it's games, these cars have amazing sounds and hopefully the next game will allow us to experience them. :)

Re: TDU Central Competiton #1 Still going, Hybrid and Baxie would you like to do your runs again due to the update ?

Congrats, feel free to post pictures and the like, also remember to enter your gamespy id into your profile and it will be displayed just like the Xbox Live one is displayed fot 360 gamers. :D (User CP > Edit Profile)

Added some stills of a few of the cars.

Hey Spotter those are some nice pics and that Zonda wow that's nice and it looks like you have a pretty nice camera because the quality is sharp. One thing I would suggest though is blur out the plates on the pics you upload as most people don't care about you getting a pic of their car but showing the plate could be troublesome as they don't want anyone being able to locate them in any way, just a suggestion is all. Keep the pics coming though, they are quality.

The cars almost actually flip and rollover with HCm but you get rest when it's about to happen.

To give you all a taste of just how good this car sounds here's a small clip of the F40 being driven through the H3 tunnel, Turn it up loud and if you have headphones also listen to it through them cause the sound is amazing. It's not completely accurate but damn it's good. Enjoy! Please right click and Save as, thanks ! [Ferrari F40 in Tunnel MP3]

Uh Hybrid 700,000 ? I think you added a 0 there buddy. lol

Woops I thought I posted in here, a jings heavens and help ma boab whits wi aw the stereotyping o' the ol scots language. Ach awaanbileyerheidyamuppets. Hey Spotter welcome to TDU Central, looking forward to seeing your pics and damn a Zonda S ! That is a rare sighting up here especially due to the need for tires that grip in the rain.

It's out It's out !!!! WOOOOHOOOOO !!! :excited: F40 Just to clarify, the badge on the wheel is in fact Yellow not Gray like it shows above, this is due to the lighting. CLK-GTR RUF Rturbo Audi S6

Everyone should be able to use the Calendar?

Okay everyone knows that TDU is a quality game for a first iteration but we also know that there's a lot that needs to be fixed, improved or even added so it got me thinking. "Everyone's a critic" so here's your chance to tell us and the community exactly what YOU would like in your Test Drive Unlimited. Imagine Atari has asked you for a list and description of what should be in TDU, you have full creative freedom to create your perfect TDU game ! Would you go for it be more simbased? Maybe more into the NFS territory or perhaps a little bit RPG? The choice is yours !! So get to typing and lets see if we can collectively get some quality ideas that show what the community wants and maybe even give Atari an actual voice in their heads of what we want. Remember this is in your own opinion and thus "one persons like will be another persons dislike" but if you have a disagreement of one persons idea then constructively discuss it don't just shoot it down and call it stupid or the like. Now get your thinking caps or even jump on the game and start noting those changes or additions you would love to see. Try though to keep some common sense in your thinking though, remember flipping cars is something licensors have a serious problem with and being able to add your images to your car may well be an obstacle that can't be overcome due to Microsoft but other than that get to wishing !

Who are you again? Just ignore this guy, he's always appearing at random intervals and such, here's a frying pan, crack him over the skull if you like. :D

Hi Hammy, welcome to the boards and I'm sure you'll see a few of us about on TDU.

Hi there Liam :welcome: to the board, nice sig as has been said but please change it from being animated as those kind of sigs can be distracting and are not permitted (as per the rules), it will imo look better without the grainy rain swept effect and bring back the colour to the car.
