    Yeah it's a valid point and I was thinking something similar recently with driving games where the time will come when older vehicle with fewer aids and less weight will be more desirable than their modern counterparts for those looking for a sim or hardcore experience.

    Just make a batch file to run the mod (which should be in the same directory as TDU2), then run the game
     
    i.e. - open Notepad.exe
     
    Type the following:
     

    @rem Launch TDU2 and mods cd "c:\program files\atari\test drive unlimited 2" start tdu2cam.exe start indicatormod.exe start uplauncher.exe exit
     
    Save file as TDU2.bat (make sure it doesn't end as .txt by selecting the 'All Files' type). Run the batch file instead of your TDU2 icon.
     
     
    If your PC is setup anything like mine then the code would be:
     

    @rem Launch TDU2 and mods d: cd d:\games\tdu2 start tdu2cam.exe start uplauncher.exe exit

    So a quick search online how to use the windows volume mixer to adjust each app volume independently.
    Or use the in game audio settings to turn down the game volume relative to the mod.

    Hi, guys 🙂
    I wanna ask something about this mod... First of all its working fine in mygame, thanks to Ryzza for the batch file. When the engine is off the mod is ticking fine and clear, but when i start the engine and when im driving i hear weird noise and crackle with the ticking in the speakers just like when is too loud. Is it only in me and how can i change the volume of the mod?
    Thanks 😉

    I know right, there were too many funny random name changes at one point and now it's hard to remember who's Who and who's everyone else... anyway fixed yours up now.

    Nice to see you again.  Congrats on the upgrade.   We're a bit more active on Discord (Chatbox 3.0) if you want to say hi.

    I recorded a little solo cruise around the island.  It seems to be between half to a third of the sizze of TDU's map based on time to drive around at a relaxed pace.

    Meet the next instalment in the TDU series, as some familiar faces tour Hong Kong Island, the Solar Hotel, and Street/Sharp Headquarters.
    The game is reportedly feature complete (excluding post-launch content) and now expected to release early in 2024, avoiding a crowded release window with the likes of The Crew Motorfest and Forza Motorsport, and allowing more time to optimise and polish the game.

    Physics are arcade, not quite as refined as FH5, but certainly good enough for me to enjoy on a gamepad. Much better than TC2.  I heard others say that offroading and landing large jumps needed a little work. I guess we'll find out more during the next closed beta later this month.
     
    And another TC2 content update feature track (route) creator, which I assume will also be a feature in TCM:

    Ryzza5 got a reaction from andrey zyb in Ryzza5's PC   
    5 years on and whilst I would have preferred to wait one more CPU generation before upgrading, I've been running into a few problems that could benefit from reinstalling Windows (and hundreds of apps), so why not upgrade some hardware at the same time.  I've also been regularly hitting close to 100% CPU utilisation and over 80% of available RAM (32GB).
    I will be reusing my case, PSU, fans, storage drives, and blu-ray drive, as well as keep the 4070 Ti that I purchased earlier this year.
    As I use my PC for audio production (single-threaded, high clock speeds), video editing (multi-threaded), and gaming and also value power efficiency I have selected the AMD Ryzen 9 7900 CPU as it gets around 80-90% toward the top of different performance benchmarks and can be easily overclocked whilst costing less than the 7900X.  Motherboard selection came down to having the right mixture of USB ports and M.2 slots without wasting money on premium on-board audio that I'll never use. Asus haven't been in people's good books recently but this board was on sale, and Gigabyte have been hacked once or twice in recent years so downloading BIOS updates and drivers from their website presents a risk of sorts.   M.2 Gen 4 SSDs have been becoming more affordable recently so I picked up an extra 4TB on sale.  And for RAM I went for a G.Skill 64GB 6000 MT/s kit which uses preferred SK Hynix chips.

     
    So for my own benefit 5 years from now, the PC build will look something like this:
    Case:  Fractal Design Define R6 with Type C USB 3.1 Gen 2 Front IO (10gbps)
    Mobo: Asus ROG Strix X670E-A Gaming with WiFi
    CPU:  AMD Ryzen 9 7900
    Cooler: NZXT Kraken X62 280mm AIO liquid cooler ($3 AM5 adapter purchased)
    RAM: 64GB G.Skill TRIDENT Z5 NEO RGB  DDR5-6000 CL30-40-40-96 1.4V  EXPO F5-6000J3040G32GX2-TZ5NR
    GPU: Gigabyte Nvidia RTX 470Ti 12GB
    M.2 SSD #1: 4TB PNY CS2241 Gen 4x4 (~5GB/s read) - for operating system, games, programs, virtual instruments and other audio plugins.
    M.2 SSD #2: 2TB Samsung EVO Plus 970 Gen 3x4 (~3GB/s read) - for audio production projects and export files
    M.2 SSD #3: 2TB Samsung EVO Plus 970 Gen 3x4 (~3GB/s read) - for video production projects and export files and OBS gameplay recordings
    SATA SSD #4: 8 TB Samsung 870 QVO (~0.5GB/s read) - I did use this for virtual instruments, games, and other downloads (basically anything that could be downloaded again since there was no way I was backing up this drive).  It's clear that this will become a bottleneck for modern games hence the new 4TB Gen 4 SSD.  I'm contemplating moving this drive to my HTPC for Plex movie/TV libraries so that I don't have to use the NAS as much (it's a bit noisy).
    SATA SSD #5: 4TB Samsung 850 EVO (~0.5 GB/s read) - currently used for audio production projects and files and some GoPro and OBS videos. I'll probably keep using it for older GoPro and OBS clips. Older games that don't require the speed boost might also end up here.
     
    Once the RAM arrives in the next day or two I should be good to start switching things over.  
    I'm Thanks for listening to my TED talk.

    Your savegame files are located in Documents\Test Drive Unlimited.  You can back them up and any time simply by copying and pasting the folder elsewhere.  It's recommended that you do this every so often, especially after progressing through the races.
    If you switch to the Alfa Romeo GTV (F class) and save, then reinstall TDU and play it without any mods, you may be able to complete the race that was crashing for you.  After installing the game, go to the installation folder (i.e. C:\Games\Test Drive Unlimited) and make a backup copy of all of the files before installing any mods on top.  That way to can switch between vanilla and modded versions of the game at any time.  You can make as many duplicates of the installation folder as you like. You may need to copy the d3d9.dll file from Platinum into your vanilla folder so that you can log into your online profile.
