poop is a better choice of word

Ahh Discord... ok ok.. that's a shame.

What happened, some fucking idiots were bothering him? Ah shit.. I see this happen way too often. No one wants to make shit for free when you got ungrateful entitled morons whining and demanding things all the time.

Cars are done, bikes are done, V-Rent is done, now i am working on car delivery missions, because not all mission allow well the modification, for some unknown reason. 

So the final number is 882? Nice.

Btw, is the 300 SL delivery still impossible to get perfect? I recall it triggering tiny amounts of damage just by driving normally. Either it was the car or the road.

Ideally, it will allow folks to play any game on any connected device

"Ideally"

But the question remains why so many large organisations are fighting to capture this market if the experience is going to be that bad?   Or does 5G mobile Internet on the horizon change everything? 

Silicon Valley is out of touch with reality for the most part. And even if 5G worked well, there are still countless bottlenecks and points of failure between the server and client.

Edit: And they can't even get Youtube videos to load reliably a lot of the time. How could they get gaming to work decently if they can't even get that right?

I had to ask because why would the engine be modeled underneath the hood? lol. Still I'm impressed you're planning ahead like that, even though you don't even know how yet. Shows you're putting real quality work into this mod.

That Nissan looks crazy good. Btw, are those cars going to be damageable like the default ones? You're posting pics of missing bumpers, hoods, etc...

Hey guys,

just a really quick question;
I'm about to finish my I think 8th time of completing the game, only three more raises (Tour of the Island, Triumph Day and Making Up For Lost Time). The latter two are Motocycle races, but when I load into them, not all participants are loaded into the race, there are no name tags next to them & the game all but freezes up. 

I don't ha ve that problem with any other race and never had that problem before.

Yes, I did try the .ige-files fix, didn't work. I also am playing the game off my physical copy.

Any ideas?

I had the same problem and managed to fix it. I'm sorry to say I forget exactly what I did, but I think it had to do with removing the unofficial patch, and then reinstalling it after I completed those bike races. If it wasn't the unofficial patch, then it was something else that I removed then reapplied afterwards.

Wouldn't exclusively hosting it cost too much in bandwidth? Plus when its released, everyone downloading it from the same place at once may cause issues.

Google Drive and a torrent are solid backup options. And posting official links in the thread OP is the best way to centralize everything and confirm the files are not tainted with outside edits or malware.

Almost. Just replace the Zenvo with Wiesmann. Lol But it's about 30 cars to finish this step. Then i will adjust some world textures, adjust the car delivery missions and car rentals. But yeah... finally. Lmao

At the risk of sounding cynical (lol), I don't see this product as being meant for the consumer. Rather, it's meant for the shareholder as if to say, "See? we're doing something to regain marketshare." No one asked for this, lol. I guess SAD Edition is a good name for a product that originally came out in 2013, but with no optical drive, and also locks you into a paid monthly service for content delivery.

Thanks for taking time away from your other project to do this. Focused on low poly and realism.. this is going to be an essential mod, lol.

I personally would just check the statistics of the hawaiian DMVs and pick the most registred ones for each body type.

 

Just when I hear people want to put in AMGs and Lambos in to traffic gives me a little bit of aids.

This is great, and I'm glad to hear actual car representation is a priority.

Also for cars, I only know whats common the east coast USA, but I assume Oahu isn't much different.

Anyway, a good way to see what they have for real is google maps street view, lol.

Wow, someone responds they like the Saturn Sky within a minute. Wasn't expecting that.

And yes, the SSR is the worst.

And the Saturn was needed for a race, that is "Saturn" only, if i am not wrong. I have an idea to possible change that, but i have to test.

Ah, so this is where knowing how to change the brand of a race becomes useful. You can replace the Saturn brand without making the race (and 100% completion) impossible to finish. Any brand you choose to replace it would be a huge improvement seeing that I've never once witnessed someone driving a Saturn Sky, LOL. Hope it works out okay.

SSR, Efijy and both Saturns are useful. SSR is the replacement mule for Rolls Royces, Efijy for Bentleys, and the Saturns are overall great to replace by everything

I agree, but Saturn Sky seems to be necessary for completing a mission I think.

And my disgust towards the Efijy is less about its crappiness and more about the fact people like to use it as a cheat car for whatever reason. 

https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Test_Drive_Unlimited has a good amount of information easily laid out.. its clearly better than navigating a forum thread.

So, I think a wiki would be useful here for guides, FAQ's, tweaks, tips, etc.

They have over 900 vehicles added, but people are constantly asking where is x vehicle, because they can't find it in the tuning shops. That's something i want to avoid happening, but the price to pay is the fact that some cars won't be added, some will be replaced. It's not something that easy to work out the logistics of it all. 

What are your thoughts on the Chevy SSR? Now that's the most unpopular dud I can think of.

And there's a certain Chevy I think would be a similar but much more popular replacement for it. But, maybe the SSR is necessary for the game like Saturn Sky?

Anyway, I like the selection of dropped cars. Especially the Efijy. Get that shit outta here lol.
