Adm-RAL got a reaction from andrey zyb in TDU1 - New Hawaii - ULTRA HD 4K Retexture (Gift from "Test Drive Unlimited 2 RS Project")
The fact is that I did not touch these textures. 🙂
If possible, check these places in a clean TDU or in another mod.
In general, yes, the retexture is demanding on the minimum video settings! If the resolution is less than 1920x1080, then most likely there will be a bad picture. Since textures are very sharp, low resolutions by definition are not able to reproduce their quality, so there can be any artifacts, especially in the HiRes version of the retexture!
It is advisable to play at a resolution of 1920x1080 with x4 anti-aliasing and x16 anisotropic filtering! I've been retexturing more or less modern hardware that might allow the game to run on the above graphics settings.

To create the mod, I used CommonWorldDiv2.bnk from TDU Platinum. I don't know if this mod was used there. 🙂 Maybe it was used... 🙂
By the way, I do not recommend enabling HDR in the game. It can negatively affect the picture. And it can possibly lead to the artifacts we talked about above.
Also, I recommend keeping fx tweek in PPL turned off.

Выключи fx tweaks в лаунчере. 😉
И конечно, если играешь с оригинальной или любой своей погодой (FX) в неё нужно внести изменения, как сказано в README поставляемом с этим модом! 😉

Правка секции конфигов травы никак не отражается на самой погоде! 🙂 Я поэтому и дал такие рекомендации... Потому-что мнения про погоду у всех разные! 🙂 А вообще, ты прав, эта дымка (туман) не просто-так делается во всех играх! 😉 🙂

Hello.
If I understood you correctly, then you are talking about the absence of fog. In many hourly weather sections, in the weather for TDU1, the weather developers almost completely turn it off, so in the distance the textures contrast strongly with the sky, as a result of which such an ugly picture appears. I tried several weathers for TDU1 and all of them have such shortcomings. In theory, in the original weather (the FX folder in the game) there should not be such errors. If you can find her, try to play with her.
Also, I myself was going to develop normal weather for TDU1, but I abandoned this idea, because this game is not very interesting for me. I'm doing my modification for TDU2 (TDU2-RS) and also modding other games, so I don't have time for TDU1. And I took screenshots and videos on my weather section, where the correct lighting and fog are set. This test weather is in the modification. Read the readme, it says how to install it. But, keep in mind that the weather in it will ALWAYS be the same, such like in the screenshots or my video.
Well, yes, I remind you that for the retexture to work well, anisotropic filtering x16 and anti-aliasing should work from x4. Resolution from 1920x1080. The textures were made in a quality that is optimal for playing in 4K, so at lower resolutions they may well give some artifacts due to the fact that the video card cannot correctly display the texture of a huge resolution at a monitor resolution below 1920x1080...

Ok that's weird now. 😄 Maybe I never noticed it before because the textures were blurry and washed out?
I play at 2560x1080 4x AA + 8x SMAA and 16x AF.
Have had such artifacts before when editing cars, there I could fix it on the model itself.
I just added now FXAA + MFAA in the Nvidia driver and instead of SMAA I use Multisample.
The image looks a bit washed out and the artifacts are only slightly reduced.
Hmm....ok I would have to test on occasion times on my other PC whether that is there also so.
Nevertheless, this texture mod is really stunning, it somehow makes playing TDU much more fun.
And photos look 1000x better, because there are no ugly textures in the background anymore.👌
Thanks for your quick help. 😉

Thaks.
Initially, I developed with such a concept, but now there are some difficult points. The game population seems to have dropped sharply, and I'm not motivated to recreate it. 🙄

Set up the moment of gear shifting and everything will go as it should! 😉

Adm-RAL reacted to binbow in TDU2VPE Release
I tried some experiments.
Data related to engine's r.p.m is also written in the sound file and HUD file for each vehicle. If you increase the maximum r.p.m of the vehicle, you need to change those data as well. If you do not change those data, the engine r.p.m. will increase but the frequency of the engine sound will be heard constantly, and the tachometer will not move beyond a certain angle. In that case, it will be recognized as the r.p.m of engine is constant.
The way to avoid the above phenomenon, it is better to find a vehicle with a maximum r.p.m that is greater than or close to the r.p.m you trying to change, and modify the HUD file and sound elements in sound files to use it.
The attached image is from an experiment using the Areal Atom 300 Supercharged file. I have uploaded the video here. In this video, I haven't changed the sound elements yet, so the engine sound remains Areal Atom 300 Supercharged.
In addition, there seems to be a mysterious phenomenon around 7189 rpm that "the r.p.m does not increase even if step on the pedal". I will investigate this separately.

Have you tuned the gearbox? If not, then look at its tabs, you will see everything there yourself!
The maximum engine speed (max rpm) is closely related to the gearbox configuration! As in general, all settings are very closely related to each other! 😉

Adm-RAL got a reaction from kociz1970 in TDU2VPE Release
Well, that's not the best option. So you can simply recalculate the cost of a car in VPE, sell it and buy a new one with a new interior color. And then return the normal value to the car. 🙂
It would be nice to change the interior color in the game. How the wheel rims were changed in the workshop. But, here again a question to the game engine. 😞
By the way, the question of the limited number of slots in the game's database, about a year ago, I decided a banal instant substitution of the game's database. I needed this so that it would be possible to add cars to the game indefinitely, but I think it is clear that this approach allows solving other problems of the limitations of the game database. 😉
Now I don't think about restrictions at all! 🙂
This is how it works:
This is just advice. I hope no one will be offended. 🙂

Adm-RAL got a reaction from AlessandroC29 in Orthophoto for TDU2 - Hawaii
AlessandroC29,
Lighting in games is controlled by shaders and weather settings.
Most likely, no one knows how to set up shaders in this game, so we forget about them. I'll come back to this a little later ...
But you can experiment with the weather ... I have not yet seen ready-made weather mods for this game. Even though it was originally broken by Eden ... In general, it is strange that no one has done this for so many years. I'll deal with it later, but I don't promise anything yet. The main problem in working with the weather of the game is that it is not yet clear to me what is responsible for its dynamics, i.e. for the algorithm for changing weather cycles. I saw the cycle configs themselves, but "how they change" is not yet available.
I have a lot of experience with weather, but in a different game. I myself collected the weather for the game STALKER, here it is (Seven daily weather cycles. Part of the light in the video is lost, because it was not captured by the writing in the video.) - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLq9qd8SB9d5-EZwVYHyTzxVnDkFJpdC8L ... Well, and a high-quality video with my weather working in one of the mods for STALKER -
Back to the shaders ...
There are currently several graphical add-ons that complement the game's native shaders and can work with just about any game. I mean - SweetFX, ReShade, ENB. There are only differences in versions depending on the render - DX9, DX11...
These additions are like spacers between the picture leaving the game and the video card. Those. the resulting picture on the monitor consists of = game + addition.
Not so long ago, I posted a configurator for the game here, which included two such add-ons to choose from - SweetFX 2.0 and ReShade 4.3.0.
Here is the link - https://turboduck.net/files/file/383-tdu2-game-configurator/
There is initially one of my presets for each of the add-ons, but it is best to try to customize them yourself and figure out all the settings. In general, read the readme! I found an old video about setting ReShade, it may come in handy.
Also, maybe this will solve your question about anti-aliasing from another topic! 😉
However, I now recommend using hardware video card technology in order to improve the picture and anti-aliasing! I have NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB and there is an option in the drivers called DSR. In the game itself, anti-aliasing is turned off, but I play at 3840x2160. The video card renders the picture in 4K resolution, and then hardware compresses it to 1920x1080 resolution of my 40 "TV. At the output I see a very soft and smoothed picture! ATI also has an analogue of this technology, only I do not remember what it is called ... 😞 By the way, such anti-aliasing also works more efficiently than conventional anti-aliasing!;)
Here, I will give a videos from the game ... The resolution in the game was 4K, but I recorded video only in 2K, tk. I forgot to change the settings of the writer ... 🙂 However, thanks to the VP-9 codec, even in 2K recoded by YouTube, you can see a good picture.
I apologize if offtopic.
