I can't download the z03 file from MEGA for the 1.21 patch. Every other part downloads and extracts just fine,but for some reason when I try to open the z03 to extract I get an error that says "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged". I've re-downloaded multiple times but still get the error. Any idea what might be causing it?

Use 7zip?

I know it has no interior, but still be a miracle to have it made soon.

Not to sound rude but if you wanna request a car to be made then it's a good idea to also suggest a good model or a game that has one, that is with a decent exterior and an interior good enough for the cockpit view. Otherwise someone has to make the model or at least some of the parts themselves which might be a tough ask to justify putting a ton of time and effort into something that the person doing it might not be very interested in.

For the most part most of the classic cars featured in games have already been made. If they haven't then most likely there wasn't a model good enough for them out there.

Hello all, 
First of all - thank you for Platinium Mod. I played TDU a lot, but right now I am returning.
I found one, very irritating issue. On Kalihi and Kalihi Valley I have a "pause" in textures, where collision is off. Cars are falling down below the map. I don't remember that similar issue happened in original game. 
Do you have maybe any idea which file could cause this issue? 

Thank you in advance!

It must be one of the sector-x-y-z-b files in /Euro/Bnk/Level/ or something. Can you show the exact spot on the map where that happens?

Hi people. Is it possible to completely disable ENB ? I like to force superior SGSAA anti-aliasing via Nvidia Profile Inspector, but I can not do this with the dx9 hook that Platinum is using. Ideally, everything the mod offers, except any of the graphical changes via ENB, would be perfect for me.

 

There's no ENB integrated with the Platinum package. The d3d9.dll file is for Project Paradise, which is the multiplayer mod that also removes some of the game limits so it functions correctly with the rest of the mods in the pack.

i have one question: why some cars disappear from dealerships? one example is the Hennessey Venom GT at the US Independents dealership, now an SSC Ultimate Aero shows up but no sign of the Venom or Shelby Daytona.

Some cars just get moved around. For example, the Venom is now a Lotus Exige tune, as that's the car it was largely based on.

I now need to find a way to play the game using an Xbox controller. It's connected to my PC via USB, and it's wired. What do I do next?

Adjust the keybinds in the settings of the game.

just a question for you guys regarding the mod, why is it that some of the modded cars have hazy looking windows? 

For the most part that's because they were made by different modders at different times, so some of them may not have been skilled enough to get them right. Or maybe they decided to make them like that intentionally... for some reason.

Anyway, all of the models are going to be reworked in future patches, so it's fair to say the overwhelming majority of the cars will look quite a bit different than they do now.

Hi, first, thanks for the work on this mod, i downloaded it today, and i am seeing nice cars, 

but about maximum speed, how is this supposed to work, how i can find the speed of a car, it shows normal speed in some cars, and upgraded speed on others?

--

So i upgraded a corvette that said it has 400 something speed, max tuning now it say 500 something, this one didn't have any body kits or something but the car doesn't go past 340.

Hi. The top speed aspect was explained in FAQ that's in the very first post of this thread. Please read that first.

Come see us in the TDUCK Discord

how to add online races in platinum?

Unfortunately the online races don't work in the current servers as those aren't getting updates anymore. It may or may not be possible to add more races in single player though.

So what are those hidden 470 cars? are they new models or special version of the existing ones? 

Also how do I find them? 

Buy cars and take them to the tuning shops, you will be able to put body kits or get special versions of them.

hello milli me and 6 of my friends are doing touge races online every night. Some cars are missing. On the internet we found the following vehicles, civic eg, 180sx type x, silvia s13, silvia s14 zenki, silvia s14 kouki. But these vehicles are not in the game, but I would love to have them, because I own the silvia s14. It would be nice to play the game so that my friends can see it too

At the moment those cars aren't included in the pack. You will need to install the same mods with your friends for everyone to see the same cars.

As for the cars themselves, they may be included in the next update, but I can't say for sure.

Hi,

This mod is awesome. Thanks for your work.

I don't see any issue while running the game on Linux with wine and Vulkan. Even the TDU servers (if exist) with the Paradise Project Launcher work.

But I have a suggestion : the roads signs with text (especially "STOP", "ONE WAY" and "EXIT ONLY") need to have a better resolution texture. Texts on them are too much blurry. 

 

There are lots of graphics mods out there for that sort of thing. Maybe there will be something done about it, I don't know.

map wont load

 

Hi.

Have you installed the base game before Platinum?

d3d9_43.dll isn't necessary for the game to work, but d3d9.dll is, and it comes packed with Platinum package. Don't download it from elsewhere, just follow my previous instructions, and if it doesn't work go tduckking in the forums (get it, googling but on TDuck).

Hey, I'm new into modding the game. Basically I'm here to ask for help on why my TDU Platinum is not working when there's d3d9.dll file (It only goes black screen on the startup and then back to desktop, not opening at all); but it works (playable) when I delete the d3d9.dll, with the side note that some cars are invisible/missing from the game.

If anyone have the solution regarding the startup problem, I'd like to know as well. I just recently found the TDU Platinum project itself on YouTube and truly amazed by it.

Hi, make sure to run the game via the Project Paradise launcher and check the big bnk box. Don't delete d3d9.dll.

I always welcome anyone trying to work on mods and what not, so if there's anyone that wants to start but doesn't know how and what to do, I'm always down to help. However, to be able to "fix" mods takes about the same knowledge as making them from scratch, it's just less time consuming. On the other hand, TDuck discord exists, it's very active and has the people to answer virtually any question about modding. So I think it's more that people aren't very interested in doing something on their own (not to sound rude or anything).

I can agree with this,however seeing mistakes here and there slightly ruins the experience. I have an idea: what if we, as a community of this amazing mod, will create a topic with small bugs and issues with cars,map and other stuff. There will always be a pinned comment with updateable list (or something like that).

We really need to help Milli. What do you all think about this idea?

I would like the idea if we had a bigger group of people making improvements, cause then it would have made sense to make some sort of a spreadsheet of things needed to be done, and assign those things to different people and have it all a bit more coordinated. In the current situation tho, I'm not sure if that's really worth it.

For me this has some importance level about realism but so be it.

Yeah it will be nice to have it "much more sooner" than that, however we will have to hunt you & torture you with a Meellee weapon! Hahahahaha!

Trust me, as a person that's trying to help her with it, I can confirm that it's very time consuming. Even on my own mods I didn't get the dials to work correctly. I will update them sometime with new fixes and what not but doing it for each and every single car with that problem on top of what's already planned would be tough.

I would suggest trying it out yourself. If there were more people helping her maybe we could get it done.

Yeah, I did. I was just wondering what I do with the .z01 and .z02 files. I was able to recombine them in 7-Zip but they seem to contain all the same files as the other zip file.

That's the thing, they're linked to the zip, so when you extract the zip it also goes over those 2 on its own.

The mod looks easy enough to install (Never played TDU myself before) but how do I unzip the 1.12 patch? I downloaded all three files but when I try to unzip the archive it gives me an error saying "The same volume can not be used as the source and destination". If I unzip the file to a partition the archive isn't on this doesn't happen, but it then instructs me to "insert disk 1 of 3" and I have no idea what to do at that point. And what am I supposed to do with the .z01 and .z02 files? Am I supposed to rejoin all these files together?

 

EDIT: Okay, tried unzipping the archive with 7-Zip instead of the Windows shell and it works fine. But what am I supposed to do with the .z01 and .z02 files?

You just unzip the zip, its contents get to the destination anyway.

Hello i d like to discuss about how we can make bots to be hardest opponents.Any suggestion or idea or for any other issue about how we can make tdu1 the millenium best racing game is welcome.i also would like if it is possible for developers' help. Thank you all.

let me say what i wish to do to tdu

1]] i d like to have hawai and ibiza environment-roads of tdu2 to tdu1

2]] i d like to have tournaments of clubraces cooperating with bots

3]] i d like to have 2 categories of bots  a}suitable for races in arcade mode and  b}suitable for hardcore mode

4]] i d like to do the missions on hardcore mode like the races via project paradise

5]] i d like to have back the online races 

1) TDU2 roads in TDU1 are technically possible but given the incomplete state of TDU World Editor it's no easy task. Although we're trying to streamline the process of road conversion so maybe it'll be done sometime. About Ibiza... that will be much harder since it's a completely different location, adding it by the side or replacing the existing map with it will be very complicated, if possible at all.

2) might be possible but not sure how to achieve that.

3) I think you won't have them alongside one another, you might have to choose which set you wanna play.

4) me and some other guys are trying to make Hardcore the default physics mode the game runs on, so it will be available from the beginning and with all the features from normal mode. Not much success so far but hey, we definitely haven't given up.

5) this one is related to Project Paradise. As the mod is incomplete and the developer (who also happens to be the World Editor creator) hasn't been online on the forums for ages, I think this is the most we can get from the online functionality of the game. Unless someone makes a brand new launcher with a different netcode to support what's missing, that is. Currently there's no one working on one.

6, 7, 8,...) why don't you join our Discord? There's a whole lot of activity there, with a bunch of people cracking their brains trying to figure out how things work in the game (including the AI, there have been some breakthroughs in that part as well) and we could always use one more. 

Anyway, good job, not sure how this slipped in the forums basically unnoticed. And good luck researching. Hope to see you soon in our Discord!
