  1. This is a 'Work-in-Progress' mod, so there are no d/l links yet.
  2. I didn't like it at first, but once I got a G25 I forced myself to at least learn it properly and now I prefer it. Most drivers who use a steering wheel and play a lot of non-arcade driving games will prefer H mode, however all will agree that it is not perfect since all it is effectively doing is making your car lighter to give you less grip. If you have a good FFB wheel, pick the right car, and take the time to learn H mode, it can be a rewarding experience. The worst thing about it is that you can't use it on SP challenges, and there is no separation on the leaderboards or diner challenges.
  3. That's the standard error for when the servers see something that's not right with your game. i.e. if you crash in such a way that your car flies around all over the place very quickly (due to a glitch) you'll get that error. It's basically TDU's limited cheat protection. Here's an example:
  4. Some superimposed shots work better than others for me. It's a great concept, but it might turn out better when TDU2 comes out with its better graphics and higher quality car models.
  5. I guess the link only works if you are in a certain country
  6. I don't mind them going back down the hill a little bit from when they were epic a few years ago. As long as they don't go all the way down the hill (i.e. stay on par as to where they were around Season 7) then I'm happy to keep watching. Of course, the end is defiantly in sight, but we at least have until their contracts expire in 2 years, which is another 3-5 seasons worth, which is about 32 episodes I guess).
  7. Anyone who has studied accounting will be familiar with the term 'loss-leaders'. Advertise cheap milk on special to your mum, and she'll go to that particular supermarket and buy other stuff while she's there. Sell cheap games on Steam, and they increase their userbase & potential sales for when the new games come out later this year (they're only really selling a license rather than a printed DVD and case + user guide, etc). A lot of those games probably sell for about $10 at the local post office, of which the developers probably only see a similar small amount of money returned to them :)
  8. Guys, despite the fact that TopGear is the most illegally downloaded show in the world, we can't tell others [how] to do this, just like how we wouldn't support those who don't buy TDU. Thanks :) I on the other hand couldn't stop laughing at the Robin film. I don't think the Kia Cee'd is reasonably priced at all. I could get a new mid-range Mitsubish Lancer, Subaru Impreza, or Ford Focus for that money.
  9. If the ball isn't in the goal, where is it?
  10. Well, both GM Rally and Flat Out were predictably rubbish. Whoever said GMR had bad physics was wrong; it has no physics. FlatOut2 was ok, but only because it was 95% exactly the same as FlatOut Ultimate Carnage, same cars, tracks, tournaments, AI names, the lot. Only the graphics weren't as HDR'ish as in the 3rd game. Don't buy anything made by '1C Company' - I've got a few of their titles and the only way you could describe them positively is if they were released in 1993... which they weren't. ;)
  11. Hehe - the Reliant Robin bit was very funny... predictable all the way, but still funny. WU is one of the only things Windows 7 does worse, as far as automatic restarting goes (I did some tests the other day with an open an unsaved Word document. It rebooted without prompt or warning, however when it restarted it automatically opened Word and the autosaved/autorecover document. That doesn't work with uTorrent though) :) Anyway, change your settings so that it asks you before downloading updates. ;)
  12. I'm not so sure about that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission#Gear_shift_types ...well, besides trucks anyway
  13. No worries. I was confused since the domain name was the same and you typed 'FileFront' above it.
  14. All four links (even the 'FileFront' ones) pointed to the Russian site, so I have removed them. Please do not link to sites/forums where TDUCk's members and visitors are forced to register to the external sites. Thanks
  15. But aren't they all paddel shift cars in real life though?
  16. For the Lexus cars with 7 gears (which are really automatics I think) I have to engage the clutch, press number 7 on my keyboard, release the clutch, then release the 7 key. You're better off just changing the controls to Auto or untick Use Clutch and H Shifter (or just don't drive that car) :)
  17. Hehe, you're getting better at that, although the driver should be sitting on the right hand side of the car in Sydney :p
  18. Someone sent me an email with these, you may have seen some of them before:
  19. You could try looking up 'Rebuilda' on the official Europe TDU PC forums, he often sells them. You can also check EBay.
  20. They're all very good, but I prefer to reserve my comments for the exceptional A+++ photos so that my feedback is genuine. I do like the SL above.
  21. Besides the first pic, I was using the Alpine mod (which is in the Tropical mod thread). [+] I was cruising with ShadowXR8 yesterday: Talk about bad draw-distances:
  22. Well, he is from Russia, so one of the Russian forums must have released a new environment mod and forgot tell us ;) It does look pretty nice
  23. you could get Milli and Mike to just remind us how far away TDU2 is in the chatbox at 30min intervals if you want :cheeky:
  24. I decided to actually take some pictures for the PoTW theme rather than always relying on my archive (I doubt it will make any difference). Since most people are posting Mercedes Benzes, I chose a Chrysler and attempted to make it look half decent. It's actually a pretty good car to drive (in this game at least), and likes to drift, as you can tell from the following shots: And for those of you who hate this car:
