Hi guys,

I don't have the TDU game, but I know that these 2 programs work in other games. They may work for TDU. If you want to see more of the desktop, set the game resolution smaller to the desktop one.

3D Ripper DX

http://www.deep-shadows.com/hax/3DRipperDX.htm

DXWnd

1.) Download DXWnd from here: http://files.filefront.com/DXWND+++...;/fileinfo.html
2.) Extract the files and run "dxwnd.exe"
3.) Edit -> Add
4.) Browser -> Select the TDU game EXE.
5.) DirectX Version Hook -> DirectX9
6.) Emulate 256 Color Palette
7.) OK
8.) Double click on the TDU game link in DXWnd and it will start windowed.

Have fun.

I hope you guys can help.

I just bought this game but when I try to use it with a joy pad, it just won't detect the buttons at all. It did for a moment but then decided that it wouldn't at all.

Windows picks it up fine in the controller settings window and everything is calibrated.

I even tryed it with a different one but still no luck.

Any ideas? :(

I had this with my ms sidewinder pad, it detected the buttons but not the dpad. You have to sort of move it in a semi circle and then hold it wherever you want ie left/right and it should work. Thats about the best i can explain it, its well strange.

Press 4 until it displays the freeride menu, in game that is.

You then use 2,4,6 and 8 to control the aux control pannel. I think 5 is the equivalent to enter.

OK ... so how do you add a mate, i knew about that by pressing F.

Im wanting to team up with a mate of mine, we have no idea how to do it and the instructions are pretty poor.
 
quick question about bikes.


i believe i have a kawasaki(no clue about bikes) and ive tuned it to pack 3, i have gotten to 217mph on the straightest longest road i could find. is this the fastest bike? or can any break 220mph?

also is the kawasaki the only bike you can tune? i was on my old one,(it said ninja on it, not sure which it was tho) and tried every tuner shop but couldnt go to any.

MV Agusta is the fastest bike. All bikes can be tuned, you just have to find the tuning shops.
 
do i have to unlock something to let me tune the other bikes?

ive looked at all the garages and the lists of what they tune and only one tunes any bike and thats the kawasaki

Yep, also got my Lambo Murcielago for $1,000 and a stage 3 F430 Spider for $2,000.

My favourite car for hooning around in is the 288GTO, stage 3'd it'll do in excess of 208mph and it handles really well. The Murcielago is also really good. I find the Enzo a bit 'light', the Kegg even lighter. Haven't tried the Saleen S7 though.

I'm working on my collectors challenges at the moment, so I'm after a cheap 575.

yep just got a mclaren slr thingy, a koneg thingy a lambo - big fast thingy and a mclaren f1 thingy all for about 5 grand.
 
lol!! I've looked for cheap supercars and there never is any!! :(


Question:

Do you have to go IN to every car dealer or just go PAST them to unlock the bikes?

If I have to go into them ill have to make a list and tick em all off or something lol
