Hi again, some of you remember me from the period when I updated TDU2 filelist for DLC2.
 
Now I am working on similar mod on Polish Community TDU board. Like VooDooShamane I know how to make the handling mods permanent and have similar feelings about a new backdor for cheaters but there are cheaters anyway. People who are most annoying in the game already bought their trainers and probably will don't know how to make changes to our mods anyway.
 
My main goal is to fix cars that are not working properly like Q7, Evora by slightly modifying each car's setup. This would not affect multiplayer because changes are rather cosmetic. I change only that what is needed for the car to drive without glitches. I've already fixed Evora gears, Q7 at high speeds, RGT hitting tarmac, jumping F40, 250GTO. I consider preparing one car for drifting only.
 
Another thing I'll put in my modification are hidden cars which i can easily unlock and put in dealershops. If you remember abandoned TDU2 Community Patch you know what i mean. It is also posible (like in TDU2 community patch) to make the room for new mod cars without replacing the old ones.
 
If you guys are interested in it i ll make another thread on this board. In the future we can join our projests and release TDU2 HC Unofficial patch.
 
Ah, another thing. Unpacked game will not be nessesary.

I did a lot research on the vfx_car.bnk in the past 2 weeks.
I now have a tool ready wich can replace the smoke texture in it without rebuilding the bnk.
As you may know the minibnk manager fails on rebuilding it properly.
There are also some .prt, .bfx and 2dm files in it.
I figured out that the .prt file manages the look of the smoke.
Resolution, Shape, how it appears and how it disappears.
The .2dm file tells the game what texture to use, what color and such things.
So i made a huge step yesterday in the smoke patcher mod.
Now i can edit the look and feel of the smoke.
Expect a cool new smoke feedback when drifting.
Tool is almost finish, will be rdy soon.
And sorry for the delay but the research on the vfx_car.bnk took a lot more time as i was expecting.
But with those new knowledege i can build lot better smoke mod.

F.A.Q.
Q. Do I have to own a legal version of TDU?
Yes
 
Q. How do I install the mod / how can I solve my issues?
See the ReadMe in the archive, it will solve most of your issues 😄
 
Q. Do I have to own the Megapack to play online?
No. You need however the latest official version of TDU (1.66A)
 
Q. Is there any mod incompatibility with the mod?
Most of your mods should work (unless it implies executable modifications)
 
Q. Is this completely free?
This mod is, and will ever be 110% free.
 
Q. Where can I download the source code or the server binaries to set my own server?
This isn't possible at the moment (because it would be pointless to setup many TDU servers when the game work in P2P). If the server close, the binaries will be released.
 
Q. What features aren't / won't be working at release? (this list may change)
Clubs, Drive In, Multiplayer Lobby, Leaderboard, E-bay
 
Q. Can I play offline with this mod and keep the features (such as the fuel mode)?
Yes
 
Q. Do I need a powerful connection to play?
If your connection used to work on the official server, then it'll work too there
 
Q. Can I play with Xfire, Steam, MSi afterburner integrated into my game?
No, because it will cause conflicts with the mod. You'll have to play without those
 
Q. I get an error message on connection because of my username
Read the instructions provided in the archive
 
Q. Is there more features to come?
Maybe... who knows! 🙂
