Since a tool to enhance Bnk1.map is almost done, you should not give time to it. Many other file formats are still unknown or not well known (sound xmb, btrqs, ...) and need to be analyzed with hex editors and such. Just a friendly advice :) And it should be possible to unlock some bike slots by updating database (it's a work in progress from my side ).
 
By the way I will have to document how all these things do actually work.
 
Thanks for 1.12, I always keep sources of my jobs but I didn't want to crawl over dozens of file and revisions to know where Map Tool was. :)
Btw, its features are rather limited (allows only to view and set file sizes).
 

Yeah, indeed ;) 

Three interesting questions, one answer. Yes it's possible, but not by me. As explained in TDUMT thread, I won't add features to TDUMT and prefer to focus on 'under the hood' research for now . Though, I could share sources to help anyone starting with a ultimate GUI project.

Bnk1.map right ?
 
An old TDUMT version could do it - can't remember which one though, as I removed this feature years ago.
 
Now there's no such tool to open it and it will mainly depend on what you're planning to do. For that kind of files I'm mainly using a hex editor.
 
My next tools will provide much easier way to add new entries in it.

Original TDU server had a slot list for sure, as it would check one's physics and eventually disconnect offenders,
I seriously doubt the new server has one.

It depends :

if same slot exists in their TDU database, they will see default car / default bike
if this is a brand new slot, I dunno what the consequences will be . Crash ? It's worth testing it :)

News !
 
Yesterday, I was parsing TDU files and I found 2 sets of rims which are present in TDU install folder but the game (a modder) can't properly use them.
That's because corresponding entries do not exist in Bnk1.map. Still.
 
vehicules/rim/chevrolet/cobalt_1_f_01.bnk
vehicules/rim/chevrolet/cobalt_2_f_01.bnk
They are currently attached to Chevrolet Cobalt slot.
 
So I'm working on a tool to update Bnk1.map with missing files.
That way, anyone could drop new files in bnk directories then use it to fix the mapping :)

- By environment modeling, you mean island map, not buildings and things, right ? I have almost no idea about it, having worked with wehicles overall. All I know is all files are grouped by sectors and many bnk files, making it way too unuseable with current tools.
 
- No unfortunately, I know CommonWorld's are a mess and since we lack of Eden developer's tools, there's no obvious solution to process it.
By the way, I remember there was an issue when importing those models into ZModeler application: filters were not complete enough.
 
 

That would be the point, indeed. Now, past experience on TDUMT taught me to focus on what's the most important. I know that I'm not the only developer here and I wish someone else to build a 'noob friendly app' (as I stated in latest TDUMT thread replies). TDUPE was that kind of software.
My main concern is to focus on low level tools and APIs to make it possible. That's to say libraries, command line executables, scripting language etc...
There's no much proof of what can be done yet, and I hope to give more throughout coming weeks
 
 

Yes. One of the very first jobs could be to process all car slots in TDU database and see which are useable or not by adding all missing files (while 3D models are missing, we could put copies of Default Car and Bikes BNK ;) ). That way, a template to new car packs would be available for vehicle modders. Btw, it still may be possible to enable some of them, which are locked currently (Audi A4 DTM, for example).
 
And next ? adding new slots is an experiment to make :)

We had some issues with OVH yesterday but it should be back online now. :)

Looks like it's almost possible to see everyone on map now - well done ! :coolspot:
 
Edit: someone posted just before me, telling the opposite :para:
No problem here, maybe connection issues on your side ...

Hi folks,
 
time to post here again :)
 
Roadmap has not been actualized for ages. It is fixed now :
Djey : TDU Modding Tools [1.16.2] + Extras - Page 27 | turboduck forum
 
Since TDU Online is back for good, I will take the opportunity to fix latest bugs in TDUMT (currently spotted 1 database bug, expecting to find many more).
 
It's not use asking for new feature in TDUMT here, as a new toolset is in progress. But don't worry, some bugs will be fixed still, till next tools make it harder, better, stronger.
 
I will create a dedicated thread s00n.
