TDUCk HF Garage TDULOG :: Test Drive Unlimited tdu.net.ru Drivers-paradise Without everyone, TDU Platinum wouldn't be anything more than a dream, so, all those people deserve a round of applause and we'll meet somewhere in Hawaii. -Always remember to make a backup of your game before you perform any modification. - For existing profiles, it's recommended to sell your vehicles and stay only with an Alfa Romeo GT BEFORE you install TDU Platinum. - If you're not feeling like selling all vehicles, just drive off the house with an Alfa Romeo GT BEFORE you install TDU Platinum, but this method might crash your game once you check some vehicles in the garage. - Original copy of TDU installed - CPU: Pentium 4/Athlon XP or better - CPU SPEED: 3 GHz - RAM: 2 GB - OS: Windows 2000/XP and above - VIDEO CARD: 512MB Video Card with Pixel & Vertex Shader 2.0 (NVIDIA GeForce 7600+ / ATI Radeon X1600+) - TOTAL VIDEO RAM: 512 MB - 3D: Yes - HARDWARE T&L: Yes - PIXEL SHADER: 3.0 - VERTEX SHADER: 3.0 - DIRECTX VERSION: DirectX 9.0c included - SOUND CARD: Yes - FREE DISK SPACE: 18 GB - Additional Google Drive link ---> Update Patch Q. Why does some vehicles display an absurd Top Speed? That's because how TDU was codded. Sadly, to get the gear ratios to work as they should, you must set the car's Top Speed as the top gear speed. Which means, the maximum speed that the final gear could achieve, regardless of it's power or drag. Usually, vehicles that have an "Overdrive gear" will display absurd values, since the last gear is really long, with the porpouse of fuel saving. Q. Ok, but why it is actually the Top Speed value is lower than the final gear speed? That's because TDU, by standard, adds around 10% more top speed. So, if a car final gear speed is 330 km/h, if you set as 300 km/h, in-game the car will reach 330 km/h. Now, if you set 330 km/h, the car will actually be faster than it should, and will reach 363 km/h. Deducting 10% of the speed makes not only the final gear accurate, but every gear will top at the correct speed, if your gear ratios are correct, which means the speed you need to shift will also be accurate. Q. Why the car classes are broken and i have overpowered vehicles for it's class? Because that was the easiest way i found to get these high-power tunes and keep the game "easily moddable". TDU will only understand a car class change if it reads a new entry on the database. That being said, i would need 4 entries in the car database, for 1 single vehicle, 1 entry being it stock, and 1 new entry for each tune kit. That means instead of 880 vehicles, i would need at least 3520. Not to mention that if someone decides to modify that 1 vehicle, they will need to modify the tuning its aswell. That not only means it would take a long time, but that it would make the game much more complex to be modded, so i used the original upgrade system, that's based on % increase of the base vehicle, but sadly, it doesn't support class changes. Q. The traffic in my game is being glitchy and invisible, what do i do? In the Project Paradise Laucher, make sure to enable V-Sync, to lock your fps to 60. The game won't do well with higher fps. Q. The game is displaying too much brightness, what i did wrong? Usually the dealerships display a higher brightness than the road environment. But also, that could be caused by FX Tweak being enabled in Project Paradise Launcher. TDU Platinum weather system was developed to not require FX Tweak, if you enable it in the launcher, it may override the weather files. Q. The physics have been changed, but they seem the same? That's because the physics engine is the same, but TDU allows each car to have their individual physics worked on, and that's what's been changed. To match real data, because TDU has messed it up even on the original game. Q. TDUPE is not working? Yes it is, but unfortunately i've stumbled across an issue i thought i would have. This issue happens when the database has over a thousand entries, which is the case, since TDU Platinum's database has 1105 entries. So, to use TDUPE, you must follow these steps: To run TDUPE, you must open it as admin. Point your TDU database directory in the settings and click load. Once it has loaded the database, search for the Custom Car you replaced in the car list. Modify and Click save. (That is when the problem starts.) Because TDUPE can't deal with more than 1000 entries in the database, it will make the game crash, to fix that issue, you must open TDU Modding Tools File Browser. Extract the CarPhysicsData.db, located inside the DB.bnk. Decrypt CarPhysicsData.db using TDU UT (this tool i did not provided, but it can be found on the forums) Open it using notepad and set the number of "Items" as 1105, save and close. Encrypt the file again, using TDU UT. Replace the new CarPhysicsData.db inside the DB.bnk. Q. Do i need the game or this is a standalone game? No! You need the game first, this is a mod and won't work on it's own.

Until I installed the multiplayer mod, everything worked fine. I activated the game with the key and it started. But the TDU World launcher does not open, it appears in the task manager for a second and disappears

Hi Everyone I have problem with the newest version v1.2.1 Platinum Mod for TDU1. I'm new here so please, be kind to me First problem is random huge fps drop in random moments.... Sometimes 10 minutes after start playing, sometimes 1 hours after... I have fresh start of campaign, I have only one, begin car - Fiat 20V Coupe, and done aprox. 10 races Second problem is freeze game renderer after minimize. By me or after windows pop-up, no matters. When game minimize, I can hear game still playing, Pause still give sounds of switching tabs, but Windows is solid black. I can't find any thread or solution similar to my problem to mod version 1.2.1, so I ask here. I will be grateful for all tips or/and solutions. Best Regards JacobJakub PS. If any of devteam Platinum mod will be reading this thread. Thank you for all of your work, this mod is the best comunity artwork to loved game which I ever seen.

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.

Hey people, I'm seriously having a blast with Test Drive Unlimited Platinum. Loving the nods to other popular culture in terms of the upgrades, too. The only thing that honestly surprises me is just how... Lacking the customization still is, in terms of updated clothing. So I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm requesting some new biker gear and custom clothing, like this: Biker helmets: - Shoei Xspirit 3 (Color variations could include the latest Marc Marquez design, as well as John McGuiness's 2019 helmet) - AGV Corsa R (With some variations based on Valentino Rossi's designs from 2019 and earlier, also featuring Barry Sheene and Guy Martin's design) - Arai RX7-V - Shark Race R helmet (Featuring a color variation based on Lorenzo's 2019 helmet) Biking suits are whatever, though some updated texturing + more color variations wouldn't hurt. As for clothing mods in general... Hmmmm, I'm thinking an Austin 3:16 t shirt for one. And for another, maybe some shirts based on music artists like Megadeth and such? Unsure really, but I'd appreciate it if you're able to mod and replace the Redrabbit helmets, even moreso if you were to do the clothing mod as a bonus of sorts. Thanks for reading in advance.

Introduction After editing by hand some sectors for the next update of Project Paradise, I thought it could be nice to create a proper map editor for TDU. After all, that's the only part of the game which has never been modded before. :) (and yes, next pp update should come soon, so less pm spam everyone thanks :twisted:) Description Even if it's called "Editor", this tool is a toolbox to export your files in your favorite 3D editor (maya, 3DS max, blender,... any editor as long as it's compatible with .obj) and obviously do the opposite. :p This choice as been made simply because I didn't want to make the usage of a cheap and badly written 3D editor an obligation. :D .obj has a pretty basic structure making easy to build an object from nothing.

Hello! I am turning towards all the people who are well acquainted with TDU and know about it's different versions. The question itself if rather simple: I am planning to buy a physical copy of TDU, new or used (if in good condition), but I would definitely like to get the version that has the DLC (megapack) included. (For PC) From what I've read, there should be a "Gold Edition" DVD release, which has the megapack and Xbox cars included but Googling around and looking at Amazon/Ebay offers, I seem to be unable to determine which one it is (if it even is there). I have seen 3-4 different cover arts for the DVD as well as a Steelbook Edition but none have Gold Edition or anything similar written on them. So my question is: Does anyone perhaps happen to know how to distinguish the right version or what I should be looking for? I would be very grateful for any tips since the DLC is now unobtainable digitally and I would really like to have it, it is probably my favorite car game after all. Thank you in advance (EDIT: Just as a sidenote, I did read the forums as well before posting but all I could find were threads about buying the DLC online. Sadly, all those links are obsolete by now.)

Sorry for my second help post in 3 days (should I be posting somewhere else?) but the music when I'm on the map doesn't play anymore. I never touched a setting to turn it off and I can't figure out how to turn it back on. Has anyone else had this problem? I think it's an issue with my gamesave because I get the music back when I switch to a backup.

View File -> TDU Platinum Dealer Updates <- 01 - US Independents Dealership Update Good news! I've been thinking about this for a while, and i finally decided to do it so. Everyone knows that Platinum 2.0 is under development, at a really not desired pace, but moving nonetheless, also, what not everyone knows is my progress schedule. I am working a dealer at a time, so i decided, why not release small updates once i finish these dealers? This way, you guys not only will be able to follow my progress closely, how will also be able to enjoy new things without massive waiting times. Although, not everything is good, and there are compromises. One of them is, these updates are not cumulative and not single picked downloads, if you skip one, the next one might cause bugs and crash your game, so, download all of them and keep yourself up to date! I mean, if you haven't downloaded and installed update 01, the following update (02), won't work. You will need to download 01, and 02, install both. Another compromise, if you edit the database of the game, your personal changes will not be carried over. Now, keeping that in mind, download it and have fun. -> How to install <- Just replace the files in the according folders. -> 01 - US Independents Update Content <- - Updated Shelby Series 1 with stripeless variation added as a tune - Updated Saleen S7 Twin Turbo and Saleen S7 Twin Turbo Competition with fixed gauges and new tailight texture - Updated SSC Ultimate Aero with fixed shadows, new tailight texture, paintable interior and GPS screen Submitter Milli Submitted 10/23/2022 Category Tools / Others  

Hello Everyone, I've got Logitech wheel and compared to other games TDU inputs are overly sensitive on small press of a pedal to the point where they feel non linear. When I'm pressing 50% throttle It reaches 100% In-game. Pedal inputs are working under 50% range and not fully employing 100%. Searching way to make pedals work linearly or increase the 50% range to a 100% Solved: You need to turn on "Report Combined Pedals" inside Logitech driver and then map pedals afterwards.
