Hope it all goes well, got to admire you for giving it a go (I suppose it's too late to change your mind now) ;)

Why would I watch it on YouTube when I can get it from FG in much better quality? I, uhh, have every single episode on my HDD :)

Hyuindai i30 or something perhaps? Apparently they had a guessing game at the TG forums and only one or two people got it right. Reading the blogs, they're very aware of the Final Gear community :nuts:

It would be fun to have these cars in TDU2 :nuts:

That's one nice paint job there. Keep up the good work.

I think the footage was planned as promotional from the start, why is the quality of this promo so much better than the original? You can't increase quality like that. They must've modified it to make it look like a mobile-phone video and got someone to upload it on their personal account. That's what I think anyway. I don't see any trailors there Mike :cheeky: O, shoot, now I'll have to unsub again :lol:

I bought GM Rally on based on your earlier praise, Leadfoot - I'll do a mini review later next week on it :nuts: I also picked up the first two versions of Flat Out since Ultimate Carnage was pretty good.

I won't be able to watch Topgear until a few hours after you UK people get to, so you can post your stuff here instead of the chat box and I don't have to worry about reading spoilers. :) Note to self, must unsub from this thread ;) If you've never heard of it, you'll likely want to check out www.finalgear.com for the extra info in their forums

I played TDU1 online on PC last Wednesday. Nearly everyone was -//-, but I think that's my new router causing issues.

I'd be interested if you can find that post for us, buster

The lines of light that go across the headlights annoys me after a while. It would also be good if they had an option to hide the Power-ups in photo mode (or I haven't had a girly look for it yet). You've seen my shots in the screenshots thread, so I'll wait until I take some more before I upload them.

Can you post a video to YouTube or xfire, that description was a tad confusing ;)

Hehe, all these people with great cameras will be posting bad quality pics in this thread... unless they own 2 great cameras :cheeky:

Ohh, you'll love DiRT 2 with the G25. :) I own all of the decent (and some rubbish) racing games on Steam, but I don't have to worry about burning up here (it's winter)

You could search on Ebay, but the Gamespy servers that host multiplayer for PC have been particularly bad during the last few months. I wouldn't let that stop me if I found the game for $10

And they'd know that they all came from TDUC :lol:

Nice job with the FSX race - I've not been able to complete that one ;) The barrel rolls at the end are a nice touch too Here are some racing vids:

I made this program a few years ago, and since a lot more people will have upgraded from Windows XP now, I figured I'd let you know about it: --- If you click Start – Games (in Windows Vista or 7), you will find that Test Drive Unlimited is not listed there. You can drag’n’drop a shortcut in the Games Explorer but it doesn’t look very nice compared to some of the newer GFW titles. Navigate to http://gameeditor.webnode.com and download the latest version of VGEE (Vista Game Explorer Editor), which also works in Windows 7. Install the software, and run it from the icon on the desktop (you need to be a local administrator). If you are not one, right-click the icon and select ‘Run as Administrator. The software detects that you haven’t completed the Wizard yet, click ok. Here’s the potentially confusing bit: VGEE works by overwriting a Legacy (old) game, and then adds the legacy game back. It’s also termed the ‘dummy game’ on some websites. If your list is not empty, then great – select any one and click Next, otherwise, follow the instructions here: http://gameeditor.webnode.com/support/ (Click the first item in the FAQ) Choose which website you want to use to find box art for you games. If you tick the box, the game title will be copied to the clipboard when you click the Find Box Art button to speed up searching. Click Finish. Since you have already dragged the TDU icon in to the games folder, click ‘Load Game Information’ at the top. You could otherwise fill in all the fields and then click ‘Add New Game’. Select Test Drive Unlimited, and click Edit. Click Yes. Type in as many details as you wish, then click the Find Box Art button to open the web page you selected in the wizard. (You can change those setting by clicking the link just under the ‘Add New Game’ menu item). Press Ctrl+V or type the game title in the Search field and click Go/Search. Select your game, and save the box art image to your desktop or somewhere else. Drag the image file onto the Box Art Preview box to add it. Click ‘Update Game Information’ when you are done. It appears in bold type when you have unsaved changes. Important Make sure the Games Explorer is closed before you save changes, otherwise you can muck things up. This is what you want to see: Close VGEE and open your Games Explorer again. TDU should show up with the data you entered (the game description doesn’t show up, though). VGEE is incapable of editing the game rating or WEI index. The game you add will copy it’s rating from the ‘dummy game’ you chose in the setup wizard. You can now close the Games Explorer, open VGEE again, and fix up the rest of your games. You can also export your changes for each game to a .vgi file so that you can quickly import them again if you format or something goes wrong). Note: VGEE doesn’t work properly in non-English versions of Windows, where the system folder names are not in English.

I would've thought that 'Global' is the average of ther other 4 categories. But if it is classified as its own category, then maybe not.

Diablo could modify his start date on this forum to the year 1901 if he really wanted to :nuts:

10 wrecks = 1 free car. I'm not sure how many there are.

They've been off for over a year now, according to the searches I've done on the official TDU PS2 forums (which have been dead just as long). Few people ever connected their PS2 to the Internet.

Split Second (PC Game) + Graphics are great + Unique addictive gameplay + Challenging AI + Tech support responds within 24hrs - Game does not support most gamepads in Split Screen mode.

But then wouldn't you have stars during the day as well?
