Looking really good so far :)

Amazing shots. Keep it up! :) The last one is really good

haha I thought someone would point that out. I think it just adds a bit more detail since I can't get Maciuk's weather mod to work so I'm stuck with the normal TDU weather. I will try and learn how to add suns to Photoshop so it gets rid of the annoying orange and green circular particles below where the lens flare is. But thanks for the comments :)

I don't care if it is negative because that means I will learn from my mistakes :)

your pictures are amazing!! Well done :)

awesome shots. You always have the right background set for the right pic. Good work! :)

It's really good. Definitley my favourite snow effect tyres. Well done mate :)

I downloaded the original torrent and nothing inside the file works. I've tries both 7zip and winrar and they both say the file is damaged. It definetley downloaded fine but none of the 'Zo' files will let me take anything from the inside. I am just saying this because the torrent might be corrupted or the download didnt work properly for me. I can't download it again for another month. Too big. But I must say Opelos_HUN, It looks brilliant. Good Job !! :)

I love the Leeuwin concert weekend in my town because I get to see all the fancy cars that all the richies come down with from all over Aus. I saw so many but I'll do my best to remember what the best were. 1.A bugatti veyron!! Black and red (Imported from britian since I don't think our country is "important enough to get some") 2.Rolls Royce phantom Drophead 3.Ferrari California 4.Ferrari F430 Scuderia 5.Lamborghini Gallardo Balboni 6.A coulpe Lotus Exige and Evora's 7.Porsche Panamerra 8.Maserati Quattroportte 9. The new Bentley continental GT (speed??) 10.Aston Martin DBS volante 11.BMW M6 and M5 12. And of course the usual ten million businessmens in their Blacked out BMW 7s, Mercedes S classes, and Porsche Cayenne great weekend for me since I have only ever seen about 2 listed

haha. Thanks for the comments.I dunno if I like them though. Bit too unrealistic i think for test drive shots but it was worth a try! I might try and get that weather mod working if i can by Maciuk otherwise I might see if we have enough downloads left and download that snow mod since it looks immense!

14-02-10 Some of the shots will have edited skies since the usual white skies in most of my previous shots seem a bit "dull" http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R2-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R1-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R4-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R3-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R5-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R6-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R7-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R8-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/R9-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/XK1-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/Xk2-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/Xk3-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M35-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M34-1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M33.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M32.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M31.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M2.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/M1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G7.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G6.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G5.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G4.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G3.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G2.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/G1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/E3.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/E2.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%207/E1.jpg Cheers and please leave feedback!

Ok thanks for that tip Rracer. Since all logitech products are SOOO ridiculously overpriced in Australia, I will probably order one from America ebay since it is so cheap there. I can get a brand new G27 on US ebay with shipping cheaper than what it would cost to buy a 3 year old, second hand G25 in Aus. How does that work??!! Why is everything in Australia so bloody expensive!! A G27 from the US logitech site is 299 USD (335 AUD) but if I am to buy it from the Australia logitech site, 600AUD!!. That's almost twice as much for no reason. I think the gt3rs wheel might be a bit too much for me but thx anyway :)

Thanks guys :) I've taken a heap more but I'll resize them then upload them when I finish work.

really nice shots :) Love the rims and paintjob on the vette

haha. I thinks it's just me slowly getting better with photoshop. Thanks for the comment :) But the only annoying thing with that weather mod is whenever I turn HDR off, the only wather type I have ever got is fog. No matter how many restarts of the game I did it was always fog. It's annoying but at least it makes the game look a bit better detailed

OK. I might just save me a bit of money and go for a second hand or cheap G25. when I save up the money for it. Yeah I did see that one of the many downsides of the Fanatec is the setting up. Thanks for the help :)

13-02-10 I finally realised that I had eyes and found Maciuk's awesome weather mod. It is so much better than the standard except for the fog which is bloody annoying!. (not all are his weather mod but most are) http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Enzo1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Enzo2.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Enzo3.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/A41.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/A42.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Elise1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/GT32.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/GT33.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Mod3501.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Mod3502.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Mod3503.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Mod3504.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Mod3505.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/Mustang1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/RS4.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/TVR1.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/TVR2.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/TVR3.jpg http://i907.photobucket.com/albums/ac274/austinmartindb9/PS%206/TVR4.jpg Thanks and please Leave feedback :)

Very impressive! Love the Lambo shots half way down the page :)

Fantastic! :) They are really, really good

Before you go doing all this, make sure you rember to back up your test drive folder just incase. For car modding files that have three files in it, (such as Must_GT.bnk, Must_GT_I.bnk and Must_GT_F_01.bnk) you need to drag the first two files (not the _F_01 file!) into C - Program Files - Atari - Test Drive Unlimited - Euro - Bnk - Vehicules. It will ask you if you want to replace two files, say yes. If it has a rim file in it as well (such as Ford_GT_F_01.bnk) there is a folder in the vehicules folder called 'Rims' Go into it and there will be all the brand folders. Go to the brand you are modding and drag the _F.bnk file in there. Just remember that the .bnk and _I.bnk go into the main Vehicules folder and the _F.bnk goes into the rim folder. You can change the car you want to add your mod to (Such as you may want to keep the Audi S6 but the mod has the same name as it). So if this occurs, just rename the mod files to a car you want to change. Just be carefull because some modders such as Tool831 do not allow this. DO NOT do "bodyswapping" if the mod page clearly states it. http://forum.tdu-central.com/forumdisplay.php?f=75 For the Released section of car mods. Lots of Modders also supply a "TDU Mod and play" file in the car download file as well which installs all the files automatically. Also look for a physics mod in the mod page because that adjusts all of the performance specs and usually the car name to the car you are downloading. If you knew how to install and where do I find it in the game (Sorry If Ididn't understand the message 100%) Go to the car mod on this site and it will say what car it replaces (Such as the GT500 Eleanor replaces the pontiac Firebird) For sound Modding, there will be one file in the sound folder you downloaded and it should have a name like this example: "C6_Z06_audio.bnk" to add it to the game, go to C - Program Files - Atari - Test Drive Unlimited - Euro - Bnk - Sound - Vehicules. Now, drag your sound file into this folder and again say yes to the replace a file message. http://forum.tdu-central.com/forumdisplay.php?f=82 For the released sound mods section For HUD modding drag the HUD file you downloaded into C - Program Files - Atari - Test Drive Unlimited - Euro - Bnk - FrontEnd - HiRes - Gauges. Again, make sure you say yes when you drage the file in. I would really reccomend using HUD mods since you can completley change a car on TDu to your liking with the car, sound and HUD mods. Environment Mods are normally all different on how you install them but they are normally made to be placed in the "FX" folder which is in the "BNK" file. Environment mods are great to make your gameplay look better and if you like taking shots (All the photoalbum's are located at http://forum.tdu-central.com/forumdisplay.php?f=46) All the environment mods are located at :http://forum.tdu-central.com/forumdisplay.php?f=55 Camera Swapping you will need to download Djey's modding tools which can be found at this link : http://forum.tdu-central.com/showthread.php?t=3739 This has a readme in the download file so I dont really need to go into depth for what this program does but It is absolutley brilliant. The last Thing you HAVE to have installed in order to use any mod whatsoever is magic map: The magic map for version 1.44: http://forum.turboduck.net/attachments/6610/ The magicmap version for 1.66 with Megapack: http://forum.turboduck.net/attachments/5959/ And the magic map for version 1.666 without megapack is: http://forum.turboduck.net/attachments/6611/ I hope this makes it all easy for you AceGT500 :)

I'm not sure about the G25. Every review I read about it today has stated that the Fanatec has much better build quality and it's single motor is much more advanced than the dual motor system in the G25. But I will probably buy what ever is cheapest on ebay. If the Fanatec stays at 270 AU, I will buy that but if I find a G25 for cheaper I will be buying that. But thanks anyway :) The G27 looks awesome but I don't want to go spending that much on a wheel

Ok. Well I think it works on only some cars. I got it to work fine on the Aston Martin DB9.

The Effects on the pics are just astonishing! Well done. Are you using photoshop to make the sun like that or am is there a mod that does that? But anyway you they are incredible :)
