  1. Maybe I'll give it a go, after I finish a bit more of my next movie. Hope you don't mind if it's in VB.NET :)
  2. If performance packs are going to work, I think there have to be ones that work online as well, not just the offline ones. It would be awesome if there was one simple application used to download and install car mods (plus managing backups, rims, car names in game, sounds (if avail), preview screenshots, car updates, (as ong as none of these prevent online play), etc). You'd need the permission from Tool, Reaper, etc to store their mods online in a central location. I visti the mod shop a few times per month and download a stash of new releases, then forget which mods are of the highest quality. I could make something, but I don't have suitable online storage space, plus yourself and Djey already have a head start in this anyway.
  3. 1. Go to WinZip.com and download the trial for WinZip v14. 2. Install WinZip. 3. Rename all the ZIP files so that the first part is the same: i.e. TDU-Winter.zip, TDU-Winter.z01, ... TDU-Winter.z12 4. Open WinZip, open the TDU-Winter.zip file. 5. Select the Euro Folder, click Extract, choose a place to extract to. 6. Go to C:\Program Files\Atari (or whereever TDU is installed). 7. Select the Test Drive Unlimited folder, and copy and paste it to the same folder. 8. Rename 'Copy of Test Drive Unlimited' to 'Test Drive Unlimited - Winter' 9. Go into the new TDU Winter folder, right click the game exe file, and create a shortcut to the desktop. Rename the desktop shortcut to TDU Winter. 10. Uninstall WinZip. It's rubbish. 7-zip is much better, and is free (open source). 11. Copy the extracted Euro Folder and paste it inside the TDU Winter folder you created in step 8. 12. Double-click the TDU Winter icon on your desktop to see what's new. You'll later want to make more changes. If you want to play TDU normally, use your old TDU icon for it.
  4. Would it be possible just to release the textures, and let us insert the files into commonworld.bnk ourselves, to reduce the file size for the download? It might take a long time to install the files, but it's already taking me a long time to download 1.4GB here, and I'd rather save my bandwidth where possible. Thanks
  5. Another good upload service that I use is http://www.adrive.com You have to create an account, but you get 50GB of storage free. Then you just upload the files there, right click them, choose Share. Right click the file again to get the URL to paste here.
  6. Can't you wait for a guy to finish writing the poll, first? :D March 2011, while I'm here.
  7. Need I say more? Point and click - see who's closest. Pesemists kindly requested not to post. Maybe the first person to guess correctly will win something, but no promises, contractual oblications, fine print, or CAPS LOCK STATEMENTS. :)
  8. Doesn't have to be massive, just a few training exercises, missions, achievements. The last good cop game I played that had this stuff was Worlds Scariest Police Chases, which was on the PSX in the 1990's. Crash Time III (on Steam) is also very good, but not quite the same (well worth the $20 price tag, though).
  9. Immediate post count of 5000 on the new forums :D (j/k) Umm, you should start off with more in game currency, extra video footage (I enjoyed that DVD that came with NFS Carbon), access to legacy content in the new games (assuming TDU is also installed), more rewards for achievements, don't want massive advantages too early in the game.
  10. When I got my G25 2 years ago and launched TDU, I instinctively went looking for the indicators while slow-cruising in the city. Took me quite a while to get used to it. Of course, being a racing wheel, it doesn't have any. I'd setup the < & > keys on my keyboard for indicators if the function was added, and would use it for cruises now and then.
  11. I want two things in relation to cops. 1) I want to be able to be the cop, and chase my friends. Go through Police Acadamy training, start off assisting the AI, then after getting certain achievements, becoming the seargant in charge of the pursuits, the one who can call for backup, roadblocks, spike strips, helicopter, shoot tyres, etc. 2) Cruise/race with friends, then accidentally run into cops, be it AI or other players, where the cops chase us as a group, then as we split up, they have to choose who they will target. Your friends, sensing that they've evaded can then come back to help crash out the cops for you, or crash you out to try and help the cops. This shouldn't have to be a specific cops'n'robbers game mode, but just built in. Options can be made available so that players can opt out of Cop mode, where their server won't have any user police, only AI. Instead of just always seeing KENNEK43 online, I'd see a trail of police cars behind him as well :)
  12. I'm with Diablo on this one. Just as long as the mod cars for TDU work in TDU2 (assuming the developers don't add them as standard).
  13. Could you imagine the 10,001st person who bought the game, created an account, did the tutorial, then got the error message: "Sorry, all of the available houses are already owned and occupied. Try signing in again later." muahaha!!!! :D :lol: I second the adding of residential areas into TDU2. The only thing is, though, if there's an acheivment for driving on all the roads, these residential roads shouldn't count towards that (like the race track and Eden Island). You unlock map warp access to those small roads when you drive on the closest main road.
  14. I want to unlock an aeroplane so that I can fly around quickly and swoop down on the noobs in Saleen S7's
  15. +Rep for kalniel :lol: The one thing I want from TDU2 is a much larger environment/map, with DLC including new territories to explore, both factual and fictional. Allow community to mod tracks/rally stages/cities/whatever into the game.
  16. Voted yes. Would be boring if the Saturn Sky was the worst car in both games. :) Car makers should make free/cheap addon cars for TDU Next as a way of advertising, since 5th Gear is gone now.
  17. Skipping the above posts, I had the same problem that drove me mad for a good 6 months. I built a system with 4GB of DDR3 Corsair RAM, when DDR3 was pretty new. Swapped pretty much every part with replacements from the supplier, ran the system as bare as possible, formatted a lot, ran MemTest after MemTest, Burn-In tests, etc. The thing that made the largest difference was selling my RAM at a loss, then changing to OCZ, 4GB DDR3. PC hardly ever freezes now (occasionally, maybe once a fortnight, which I can sortof live with). Hope this helps.
  18. I wouldn't ask here about that, particularly that type of system. Some other places that spring to mind are the fourms at Tom's Hardware and Experts-Exchange. I can't belive you paid so much for a PC, I didn't think there were that many high-end games in 2004 :D
  19. Thanks guys. I'm slowly working on a new 'Speed Car Productions' movie that should be more epic'er. :D
  20. I'll link you to the original source of information for now. I might prepare my own tutorial with pictures, etc later on. http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=22652&sid=6943b52a658493a6e806bec571c09d39 Noet that this doesn't work if you are using 64 bit Windows (the setup files for NFS 2 + 3 fail since they are 16-bit applications). Maybe there is a way around it, but fortunately I had a laptop running XP SP3, and it worked perfectly on that. I've had limited success in the past using similar info from a variety of soruces, but couldn't always replicate the results when I formatted my PC. It's nice to have all the info there in the one place.
