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!

One of HFG modders was doing it a while back, you can ask if they've abandoned the project or they're gonna finish it eventually. Here there's not a lot of people that are still making car mods. I for one have just got the hang of it, but I have too many cars I gotta finish first lol

Here is my contribution

First, the contest is over. Whenever we decide to organize another one - we'll make another thread.

And what's more important - I wrote in the second rule, that any screenshots that were shown in the forum, this thread or TDuck Discord will be disqualified. Take your time to read the rules next time, okay?

Hello friends, I'm announcing the voting for the screenshot contest!
Go through this link and vote for the picture that you like.
You can also take closer look at the pics here.
Deadline: 4th of August
Let the competition begin!
P.S. my bad, mistyped the deadline "4th of October" instead of "August". Sorry about that.

Hi fellows! I wanted to make an announcement yesterday but was a little bit busy. Anyways, I'm happy to announce that the screenshot contests are back!

Here's the plan. I will announce the winner and the theme for the next contest in Mondays. You will have a week to prepare your best shots and send them to me via DM here or in Discord (find me in TDuck Discord server, Rigel#6747). On Monday I'll publish the pics here in gallery and make a poll, the voting will start, and will last one week. And again, on Monday I'll announce the winner and the theme for the next contest.

Rules:
1) The screenshots should belong to the specified game and theme if there are any.
2) Showing your screenshots to ANYONE before the end of the contest is strictly prohibited. Send them only to me via DM as I said above. If you post them here or in TDuck Discord server you will be disqualified immediately. This will prevent people from cheating and getting (or vice versa) some extra votes.
3) Heavily editing the photos is prohibited. Minor tweaks like upscaling, fixing the artifacts, and adding motion blur/DOF are okay though.
4) You are allowed to use any mods you like, both graphics and car mods.
5) Stealing others' screenshots will give you a ban from participation to the further contests.

I think that's it. Any kind of feedback is welcome! 
Theme for this contest: anything.
Game: Test Drive Unlimited 1 & 2.
Deadline: 28th of July. 
Waiting for your awesome shots!

I thought this thing is dead. Nice work man!

either funk nation or random jazzy stuff

ok

Just opened the database to add my own stuff with TDUF and I be like....


How the hell were you doing in that mess lmfao? Great job and thanks once again cause I doubt anyone else would have the patience to do THAT. 

For other people: run TDUF, open the database and you'll get what I'm talking about (though I understand how it works more or less).

Does the project have a server in the Discord? 

The project itself doesn't have one, but there's TurboDuck Official Discord server though. 
https://discord.gg/FvF6FFv
Anyway, if there is one dedicated the project, lemme know
Bruh, I'm late.

I got some bugs to report. I couldn't do a few car delivery missions (Carrera GT, Lancia 037) with a manual gearbox because the game didn't let me shift the gears. Also once  a little glitch happened after an F class race, after finishing it I couldn't exit the race (got stuck on "you won" screen with no buttons working) and I got to kill the game with the task manager.
I believe there were a few minor things too, I just don't remember now writing this comment.
By the way, huge thanks for edited races, I love them. Some actually added a bit of challenge. Is there a way to increase the number of opponents in some races (like from 4 to 8 or more if possible)?
