Lot of Porsches updated & added, nice! I use a classic Platinum modded, but I want to try this DayDream again by curiosity, & at least just for the new Porsches I hope Milli will add to her future update. Does the CGT has a deployable spoiler on windows key? Would love to have such!

Try to host it elsewhere than on torrent, like on a direct download site, torrents suck at the beginning when not enough seeders... Or try putting high upload limit if you have decent connexion (like, fiber...) + let your PC & torrent program open a few days until some other people get the file & help to share it later with peers.

If I am able to get the fill ~24GO file, I could host it on a VPS or 1fichier.com website & you could put direct download link if you wish. But the problem is that I no longer have fiber so will take me ~60h to upload it!

I remember months ago, when we met in-game, you were already working on this ... Cherookee, I hope you did other things for the game meantime! Please rassure us huh!

Also, I recently moved from Win XP to 7, then I can use TDUF, I tried to modify 911 R's wrong gear ratios, I tried with both TDUF versions (v1.13.1 & v2.0.0), game off, I launched the DB with them, properly cleaned up cache everytime, edited the gear ratios to values that could make max RPM on each gear close to the real 911 R's ones, then saved. But this does not work as expected, the 2nd gear, which originally reaches ~165 km/h in-game, now reaches 150 km/h whatever the ratio value I put. WTF is this crap? Is the program fucked up or there is a specific trick to make it work properly?

And what is the "Final ratio" on it? The possible 8th gear or the bridge's one (changing it did not have any effect).

And just by default, 911 GT3 RS (991) has its 2nd ratio to 2.38, 911 R's to 2.29, but one hits around 120 km/h on limiter, the other 160+... While the difference should not have such gap knowing they both have same engine/RPM (911 R is a 991.1 GT3 RS without rear spoiler & extras & manual gearbox, and PDK vs manual ratios are same till 4th, they change from 5th, check here).

911 R's has different handling than GT3s, it is a way more pleasant to drive (while the GT3s 991 are too grippy with TC off, not normal, which make their driving unpleasant), except its too long gear ratios.

So Milli, could you try to modify 911 R's ratio on your DB & test if this works for you, or, tell me what is wrong & how to change them properly? If there is a trick or else. Thanks.

I was hoping to make it. But it appears that my schedule does not permit it. 

You look like an AI. And what is this funnyshooter2 thing relation to TDU? Huh?

Very nice! Some Italian charming & gorgeous sounds.

But (hahaha!), you could also use the GrandTurismo's sound for the Alfa Romeo 8C (since it is using its engine too).

And maybe also add famous "*_TDUP" suffix to the archive.

Well, we humans, mistakes happens, & your percent of mistakes like this is low, do not be so mad at you! Hehehe!

Just control your archive & link/topic's content before submittion & this should be avoided!

Besides, you have "me" as backup, if you mistake again! Hehehehehe!

Good! But you swapped the sounds in the folders (new sounds in the uninstall & vice-versa)!

I personnaly do not feel it matching to the real one, I currently prefer this one. Need some rework in my opinion.

PS: For the Maseratis GranTurismo S & Quattroporte, I might prefer the one you send separately to petrolhead (a bit more trebbles, but those are similar, compared to the one you released on the Maserati pack).

Where is the suite? One "3 lines update" per year?

Nice! But file link is pointing to Lancia's one! Also mistaken on YouTube's link too from that I recall.

PS: I am languishing the one of the mighty F50!

Can we take a moment for a tribute to the innocent Russian player "rusik293019", killed during war! Poor guy has been left there from weeks, or months! Hahaha!

Major problem. Utorrent only opens with Edge, but even though the app opens, the window just won't pop up. Is there any alternative?

To download platinum? Here for Milli's build, then patch her last DB she submitted on Discord (which fix LP720-4 available from tune from that I recall) after from there. You can also install my own game (ready to use, just unzip the single big folder inside) if you want, already some extras installed as maps addons, Reymondox's sounds, etc..

I love our "weekly sounds" by you!

Hi Meelee!

Petrolhead ask me to ask you if you could add those very juicy billboards into next TDU update you will release, however, he will no longer play with me, sorry, but, I had to ask!

Besides, see the positive point for you (& other potential girls playing TDU Platinum), when you will cruise with "boys", you will beat them easily when they will see that & crash!

But you, you not difficult, you love everything!

Your current best CGT's sound submitted! Nice! Now we will need a better model with deployable spoiler on the windows key!

Meantime, a few things, the idle sound is very loud (& also almost sounds like a plane sound!), well, I am not against, but, the reviving one is not loud enough compared to it, especially from onboard view, this should be louder, like a ears breaker! Hahaha! I know you told me before some high volume settings are set up elsewhere, but maybe you can rise up the sound volume itself on your sample.

Your last "own sounds" are good! I got the feeling either you used better samples or/and improved your recording methods.

But petrolhead told me this sound could be used for more cars using same engine, like the SLS AMG, or C63 Black Series.

Probably much more Mercedes using same naturally aspired V8 engine could use this sound (need to check TDU's list), so probably update/replace to a "Mercedes AMG V8 sound pack" or something like! We can easily found this on wikipedia, despite Mercedes cars range is large... But take care to do not mess with the AMG twin-turbo V8 usually put on more recents cars (AMG GT series for example) for dumb shit modern rules...

Fortunately the GTS is the one used in-game, the GTB (no targa version) does not seem to exists, or this is switchable via tune but me who have all Ferraris normally, I did not have it.

Nice, but you forgot renaming the "copia" file into GTB name!

Despite this is not a "fast Ferrari", this sound almost changes everything, much more enjoyable! Cool! Thanks!

The decelerating sound of the C12 needs a change (it is almost like the sound of a little plane we hear in TDU)!

Too much difference between accelerating one, besides it is unpleasant, I personnaly put your F/Cinque's one instead, because I could not tolerate it longer while cruising!

I think you could keep the C12's accelerating one as it is, but put the F's decelerating one on it.

GOOD GIRL!!!! YEAHHH!

I hope you will try to do that to the most amount of cars you can, this improves experience & gives us the possibility to watch "accurate" inboard odometer speed view rather than classic TDU's speed on the right. Because, when it is wrong, I do not feel to watch it at all.

But, are you only refering to cockpit's odometer fix, or, both cockpit & odometers from others views?

And about fixing tachymeters? Is this included?

Nice as usual!

Well, if the tachymeter/odometer problem is model-related I get it, since modellers "gone"! Or maybe trying to be in touch with some probably still active like "rulez" could be a solution to fix a bunch of things on models (like changing rear spoiler opening from lights while it should be from window in the goal to let others see it, etc.).

I explained about the gear ratio that when I changed only one, it changed all gears ratios in-game & put them longer, while I only modified the 7th via TDUF. I will try again later, but as I said, this was fucked up.

My demands are like "requests" in my mind (things to put in her "to do list"), this is more my tone which sounds like "exigences" maybe for you & others, not the original intention. But you should not try to teach me the "volonteers stuff part" when I previously purposed her to give money for my requests & she refused... For me she should take such opportunity & not refuse... Especially knowing the today shit conjuncture in this world...

Besides, I can not really contribute since various things must be done by one person, I could try to deal with TDUF, adjust a new database step by step more realistic, & send to her, but she will probably not replace her current own already different, etc., and also knowing we seem to have a different vision. I also worked hundred of hours on the past on other projects and for free, but right now I just do not want to invest anymore, I play that game for distracting, I just see it has still potential to be better & more realistic, even for its age, & Milli has apparently good knowledge to adjust some of the things, so I request/demand, & even purpose money for such, I do not see much the problem, I am probably one of the rare who purposed to offer some money for such so.

Yet again, it is not worth the time. The models are not made by Milli and it's not really her responsibility either.

She does not *need* to do anything. You can easily do that for your own game. You have the tools, you have the research power. If you'd like to do changes on the game, go for it, but do not demand it from others. The input is appreciated but please drop this demanding tone.

We are talking about Test Drive Unlimited, not Assetto Corsa. The cars were grippy in the game since the beginning, this is an arcade game. The physics engine is 15+ years old, and was pretty mediocre back then even.

I did not study how the whole game works, but I do not think the alignement of the tachymeter & odometer values compared to the maximum setting & TDU's white speed on the right, are model-related, more something on the data to adjust, or am I wrong?

Well, I use Windows XP, TDUF does not work on it, and I already tried it on Win7, for example, to modify the abused long 7th gear of a car like the F12 tdf, but when I replaced the modified file in my main PC, all the gears were affected while I only modified the 7th ratio, so I did not wanted to bother much if the program does not works well or else.

Besides, my demands can satisfy other people & I like when all the other users can enjoy the fixes/changes, not only me. LIke, if a new car which had a crappy sound, got a new sound, I like when other people can also hear it, this also improves their experience, because they can enjoy it while driving with me (like if you walk on a street & hear a Ferrari's sound close to you, this is not yours, but you enjoy it!). Also, I do not like to modify too much things like if we race with same car on some track & cie, this feels like cheat or unequal, despite this is more a cruise game than a serious race one like Assetto Corsa.

I feel TDU a good game for such age, compared to others, & when cars are well made (model, physics, sound), we can have a good pleasure with, but I like realistic & quality stuff, & the game has potential to provide such, that's why I sometimes insist on some demands like that, my tone is like that but I expect more Milli put that in her "to do list" if she interested, but I also offered some money on the past but she refused...

TDU is a good & "almost rare" open world car game, I am also a bit sad not enough people willing to work on it, but at least there are some, & players in-game!

Reflexion time moment of Meelee!! Hehe!
