    can this be related to d3d file that is part of project paradise or platinum package? Related to directx (improper version?) or graphic driver not installed/PC rebooted? Check also game with user profile removed and check this tutorial.

    Maybe this is not the solution, but check this:

    I have installed it, per this tutorial. For me the game works quite well.

    You do not need to wait, the update was a small patch file, so i guess when/if new version will be out, you will not need to download all that gigabytes again.

    It looked like that, but i may be wrong. When i have NOT ticked the GameSpy, it caused that the game menu contained new entry for starting new game (Assuming no progress from beginning) and the menu entry to continue game was no longer available. So good to tick the GameSpy checkbox if prompted inside the game and backup C:\Users\YOURUSERAMEHERE\Documents\Test Drive Unlimited\savegame\YOYURNICKNAME directory before you start using game. Actually good to link it to Desktop and backup it from time to time. Maybe good to backup whole savegame which contains also profilelist file.

    Thank you for setting up the server again. Hopefully there will be backups and it will not come down for good in the future. Guys and gals, before you run the game again, note that i had an issue where my profile was invalidated and i had to restore backup, so prevent trouble: IN PP launcher i disabled Offline, and then it shown issue with my online profile. I have not ticked GameSpy and that was problem, it invalidated my profile (was unable to get into profile configuration screen again) and i had to restore it from backup (C:\Users\User\Documents\Test Drive Unlimited\savegame\MyUsername folder) and then tick the GameSpy ID to let me in.

    You may find some details here: https://turboduck.net/guide/test-drive-unlimited-1-modding-guide-r5/

    This will likely not help you, but i do not know what you mean nothing works. Maybe try not to apply any additional things like yours mentioned patch "multiple prize cars". Maybe try renaming TDU folder from the Documents folder, i mean one that contains PLAYERSAVE and let create new profile in game. Or uninstall TDU, go to Win+R, type and execute "%appdata%" and find TDU/Atari folder and rename/delete it. Then do the same for the Atari/TDU folders that are inside Program Files folders - to make sure there are no remains. And install just basic necessary things per this tutorial. Report the result and then you may try additional patchs and modifications. Read the readme of the PP launcher and Platinum to make sure you install it exactly as recommended.

    You can try manually editing the files, search for the "fog" here, or DL this.

    Hi, i have possibly found wrong data for Ferrari TDF (full tuned). I was comparing it to a F12 Libertywalk and this is what i see on the Data tab in Garage: F12 947bhp, 890n.m., 1520kg -> 1.605kg/DIN hp (1.60506863780359) TDF 1001bhp, 705 n.m., 1337kg -> 1.974kg/DIN hp (1.335664335664336) the decimal dumber in the brackets is the result of dividing weight by bhp, and the TDF value is currently 1.974 not 1.335 as it possibly should be?). It is not a problem, possibly it does not influence car performance, and is just a number on Data tab. I just wanted to share this finding to @Milli and others. By the way, small surprise to me is that the significantly higher torque (n.m.) of the F12 does not translate into faster time when i meter it by in-game speed test and compare both cars. TDF has faster acceleration, i would expect such torque will cause car to accelerate faster than TDF, but maybe it is not enough to cover bigger weight of the car.

    I guess it is too difficult to use the savegame mentioned above as online profile under custom nickname. I would appreciate to read some review and steps done to make that savegame working.

    connecting to testdrive server - unable to connect: try to delete TDU from Windows firewall and any other firewall. If that does not help, try to add it (paradise launcher, not original .exe) again among allowed firewall apps, try temporarily disabling firewall. Think someone also recommend using VPN (use one which allows opening port - 8889). Inform what helped/if helped.
  13. vit-jan0
    So the Platinum includes the PP, 1.66 patch and also no-cd/dvd crack?
  14. vit-jan0
    Hi @Djey @Milli @all , the right order of installation is like this? TDU1 1.66A patch no-dvd patch (replaces original .exe) Project paradise Platinum pack (official car megapack is absolete in this case and should not be installed?) Platinum pack patch 1.1 Platinum pack patch 1.2... ?
  15. vit-jan0
    just today i have found that the popular VPN service can be used for free: https://protonvpn.com is it meant connecting to server? If no, then after connected and clicking to Continue i see no loading message, it goes straight to showing my house. Maybe problem is in the mods? Maybe stock game with 1.66A patch + Project paradise + ticked/unticked big bnk option in PP launcher would work. (after backing up profile and uninstalling game + all remains in Program Files).
  16. vit-jan0
    @Donado i do not know the answer, but the steps to discover the cause can be to install clean game, check if it works, then install TDUPP (project paradise), check if it works, install platinum, check, first patch, check, install next patch... https://internetlifeforum.com/computers-technology/5175-how-run-tdu1-windows-10-a/

    @nega i have downloaded the 1.12 patch previously and it worked. Maybe you can download software that will calculate file checksum: https://github.com/gurnec/HashCheck/releases/latest . Here is the one of my patch 1.12 zip file: if yours is different, then Milli updated the zip file or your download is incomplete. Then try to re-download the patch.

    Here is the island map with stations. More images here. You can also open file C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\Test Drive Unlimited\savegame\YOURUSERNAME\bookmark\bookmark.txt and paste following block to the new line, before the last line containing single quote ('). Then you should be able to use bookmarks tab ingame and teleport to the stations.

    I like it here is my wishlist @BEight 1) Please remove trees that force blind drive into the last corner. 2) Please if possible, make the road color and texture to match one on the official race track. So it is darker, more real and better for eyes. 3) Please connect racetrack with island exit road on both sides, currently only on one side. 4. Parking place has view on the house - not an ideal view
  20. vit-jan0
    Good island @BEight. My wishlist is: - remove the tree that is on the second corner from the end of the racetrack. It prevents clearly seeing on the road in high speed and no one is slowing down while it is very fast corner - make the racetrack road texture more dark - like on default roads/on original racetrack, it save eyes and look more real - it may be handy if there is road from racetrack to a bridge on both sides. Currently it is only on one side.
  21. vit-jan0
    I would follow this tutorial and first try if game works stock (in default state without patchs and profiles), then check if works with patch, then next stage - if works with your custom player profile (maybe it works with new profile and not with your customized) - that way you discover wherere the problem can be and avoid it. Maybe problem is some car. Make sure Big bnk is ticked in project paradise launcher.
  22. vit-jan0
    Can the cause be also the firewall? Try disabling your firewall apps temporarily. If it help, then remove TDU executable from your firewalls and wait if it detect it again automaticaly or add it yourself (i guess project paradise launcher needs to be added).
  23. vit-jan0
    you can see how i did it here.
  24. vit-jan0
    I spent some time and i think it may be possible: 1. create desktop shortcut to this directory: C:\Users\YOU\Documents\Test Drive Unlimited\savegame\YOURNICKNAME\playersave 2. copy commondt.sav to commondt - setup1.sav 3. launch game and modify your controller settings like accelerating, braking, steering keys/triggers. Save and quit game. 4. copy commondt.sav to commondt - setup2.sav 5. now you can backup these two files and when you want to use for example setup2, delete commondt.sav and copy "commondt.sav - setup2.sav" to "commondt.sav" and launch the game I expect you can differentiate two profiles by just renaming whole savegame folder.
  25. vit-jan0
    Hi, please which file store my settings regarding keys and actions it triggers (like up arrow to accelerate, down arrow to brake)? I found that i quite like my keyboard setup and i also want to use gamepad and quickly switch between these 2 setups - possibly by just replacing/renaming some file in TDU folders? Thank you
