Milli

I've tested the fuel tank capacity. It's about 210km (130 miles) long.
 
I had to drive around the insland, to unlock all the roads, took that as an opportunity to test. So, i drove all the time under 3000rpm, which in 6th gear gave me the avarage speed of 120km/h (74mph)... I did not went over that speed, maybe by one or two miles for a few seconds, and the full tank allowed me to drive exactly 208,3 km (129,4 miles).
 
With a Saturn Sky, i think that's too little. :lol: No wonder that when you floor it you can only drive for about 80km. I think make it the double would be enough, like, the drain speed 50% of what it is now.
 
And here is a photo taken while doing the testing. :lol:

  Q. Why does some vehicles display an absurd Top Speed?
That's because how TDU was codded. Sadly, to get the gear ratios to work as they should, you must set the car's Top Speed as the top gear speed. Which means, the maximum speed that the final gear could achieve, regardless of it's power or drag. Usually, vehicles that have an "Overdrive gear" will display absurd values, since the last gear is really long, with the porpouse of fuel saving.
 
 Q. Ok, but why it is actually the Top Speed value is lower than the final gear speed?
That's because TDU, by standard, adds around 10% more top speed. So, if a car final gear speed is 330 km/h, if you set as 300 km/h, in-game the car will reach 330 km/h. Now, if you set 330 km/h, the car will actually be faster than it should, and will reach 363 km/h.
Deducting 10% of the speed makes not only the final gear accurate, but every gear will top at the correct speed, if your gear ratios are correct, which means the speed you need to shift will also be accurate.
 
Q. Why the car classes are broken and i have overpowered vehicles for it's class?
Because that was the easiest way i found to get these high-power tunes and keep the game "easily moddable".  TDU will only understand a car class change if it reads a new entry on the database. That being said, i would need 4 entries in the car database, for 1 single vehicle, 1 entry being it stock, and 1 new entry for each tune kit.  That means instead of 880 vehicles, i would need at least 3520.  Not to mention that if someone decides to modify that 1 vehicle, they will need to modify the tuning its aswell.  
That not only means it would take a long time, but that it would make the game much more complex to be modded, so i used the original upgrade system, that's based on % increase of the base vehicle, but sadly, it doesn't support class changes.
 
 Q. The traffic in my game is being glitchy and invisible, what do i do?
In the Project Paradise Laucher, make sure to enable V-Sync, to lock your fps to 60. The game won't do well with higher fps.
 
 Q. The game is displaying too much brightness, what i did wrong?
Usually the dealerships display a higher brightness than the road environment. But also, that could be caused by FX Tweak being enabled in Project Paradise Launcher. TDU Platinum weather system was developed to not require FX Tweak, if you enable it in the launcher, it may override the weather files.
 
 Q. The physics have been changed, but they seem the same?
That's because the physics engine is the same, but TDU allows each car to have their individual physics worked on, and that's what's been changed. To match real data, because TDU has messed it up even on the original game.
 
 Q. TDUPE is not working?
Yes it is, but unfortunately i've stumbled across an issue i thought i would have. This issue happens when the database has over a thousand entries, which is the case, since TDU Platinum's database has 1105 entries. So, to use TDUPE, you must follow these steps:
To run TDUPE, you must open it as admin. Point your TDU database directory in the settings and click load. Once it has loaded the database, search for the Custom Car you replaced in the car list. Modify and Click save. (That is when the problem starts.) Because TDUPE can't deal with more than 1000 entries in the database, it will make the game crash, to fix that issue, you must open TDU Modding Tools File Browser. Extract the CarPhysicsData.db, located inside the DB.bnk. Decrypt CarPhysicsData.db using TDU UT (this tool i did not provided, but it can be found on the forums) Open it using notepad and set the number of "Items" as 1105, save and close. Encrypt the file again, using TDU UT. Replace the new CarPhysicsData.db inside the DB.bnk.  
   Q. Do i need the game or this is a standalone game?
No! You need the game first, this is a mod and won't work on it's own.  
 
 

 

DarkAvenger is kicking again! I must say, thanks again guys, for this brilliant work on putting TDU online again. ;)
 

Loving the Del Sol (Saturn Sky) Combat! :D

Edit: This ^ :lol:
 

 
I believe that happend due incoherence between players when it's about traffic files. Some people disable them, some people change them, and when they're all together in one session, the game get's confused.

Mine is green, which is weird, but awesome. :lol: Later i take a photo of it.
 

I don't think Ferrari lost it's Ferrari-ness, it just got modern as the years passed by, but i do prefer the 90's and about. 456, 550, 355, 348, 512, 360... :drool:

Yes, i love the 456. I even have a 1/18 scale model of it. :D

Edit the models is possible. Time consuming, but possible. Now, to make blinkers work, i think the hardest part is edit the game codes and etc.

Read the thread, it's been said quite few times. And probably it's on the readme file.

#TDUwillbebacklikeaphoenixbutbetterthaneverbecauseitsafabulousgame

It's common forum knowledge that it's not cool to bump really old posts. :)

Hahaha hide it inside the car is really clever, i must say.

Actually, in TDU you could win a lot of money without cheat. I sold a couple of cars for 9.999.000. Just put a Mustang for sale there, and someone who cheated, bought it. :lol:

I am not sure if anyone understood, but what i made would use both versions, the analogic when you have the analogic huds, and the digital would only be there when you use cockpit view.
 
And that one is good Johny46, problem is, how it would look like when you're using the cockpit view? ;) :lol:
 
Edit: This is something i thought now... square huds... :hmmm:

 
We must think about all the kinds of huds... and this one is something i didn't think of untill now.

Guys, pay for fuel in TDU would be more symbolic than anything, people have millions in the game... :rolleyes:

But they're so cute! :lol:
 
Like a real car! Look:

 
:lol:

Thanks guys! :D

2nd thought about the digital (cockpit) one:
 

Link
 

 

Sent a PM for you Speeder. :lol:
 
Edit: Not sure if i can post what i made here. Sorry guys.
 
Edit2: Well, we all know that there will be fuel system, and we all know that Speeder asked for help with it. I don't know if mine will be approved, but what i've done so far, is this one here:
 

How it works. (If gif doesn't work, click here.
 
In game photoshop made: (Images took from Google)
 

Bumper camera
 

Cockpit camera
 

Chase camera
 
Feel free to give some feedback. ;)

Good luck trying to find a rwd street car that does 0-400 in less than 15 seconds. :lol:

I think you should wait for the public release before buy a new wheel, so you can test it yourself, have more info about it and talk with a way bigger larger number of people. ;)
 

Oh yes, the S7 is stupid, and that has nothing to do with being "able to handle this devil" or not. The S7 is stupid because it's massive unrealistic acceleration.
 
And i will save the comment about your gauges to myself. :lol:

What dispute? There never was a dispute because the Corvette is clearly better. No discussion or doubt about that. :lol:
 
Edit: And i've been here since 2010, never left or stopped posting. Just take a look at my post count.

Those videos are honestly throwing me into a really strong mental flashback. I am literally remembering the countless hours i've spent in TDU, all the fun and all the people i've met there... it's beautiful.
 
This project is simply gold, and i am really glad it's happening, and to make it even better, i am really glad that it is happening here, the most dedicated to TDU website i know, won't be bold to say over the internet, because there's a lot that i don't know, but it's just awesome that you guys and all the people involved in this project is doing here!
 
And as many people around here, i am so waiting... for it to be released, and of course, i also have my questions, but i won't make them for now, because you guys are already getting bombed enough. :lol:
 
Keep the good work, keep us updated, please! And i am really grateful for all the work and time spent on this project that is pure... love.
