The **Official** Test Drive Unlimited for PC thread

Tried ma logitech ps2 pad , its okay for going straight , it has an odd thing of going left , and i cant turn sharp :/ BAH! dunno what else to try. I've been to all of the dealers and hate the motorbikes so sticking with cars ... just plodding about trying to get some $$ but thats about it , taking ma time anyway.
 
My mate and I spent like the whole easter holidays completing this ******* game. We had about 2 missions to go. Last night we went to finish it off, and the continue game thing is greyed out, which I'm assuming means the saved game is corrupted.

How the hell can they do this to us?

Atari confirm that Eden are currently working on a patch for the PC version of Test Drive Unlimited which will be available in May. With the patch Eden are working to address the following issues:

* Corrupted saved games (previously corrupted save games will not be restored)

* Game freezing / crashes

* Performance optimization

* In-game exploits

The patch will undergo thorough testing at Eden and Atari prior to release to ensure the quality. Further information will be available in due course. Thank you for playing Test Drive Unlimited.

aye, fair play ruining your single player experience, but to ruin others by posting compeltely silly times in the tables and drive in challenges is a joke

0-500instantly or faster....seem some drive in speed challenges were the leaders speed was over 1000mph

seen one of the sp speed challenges, someones speed was over 3000mph

the leagues have gone from whos the better driver to who has the best trainer
 
Thanks for the news. I hope they fix *** aa with hdr so its smoother as at the mo using both together 4x aa is like 2x aa lines on cars etc appear slightly jaggy for me, but with hdr off its smoother (normal with 4x aa.)

Also i hope the performance is better as in less stuttering when driving fast etc. Also the bug where tdu crashes when trying to modify your character features etc.
 
Hi there.

With my rig im getting 15fps with 4x aa and hdr on at 1280x1024 res "high" detail level as well on. Is this about right or can I get more fps out of it. Im using HIS x1950pro 512mb AGP btw on 7.1 drivers. With CCC set to 8x AF with HQ on, Catalyst AI Standard and AAA set to quality.


Its about 15fps. And not very smooth. Tho 2x aa and hdr on is smoother.

Heres a pic of tdu with fraps at 4x aa HDR on, 8x with HQ AF. 1280x1024 res.

Use same settings as above but 2x AA and its more playable at 22-26fps. Using external view.



--

Using same settings as above from 2x AA section. Using higher res tho at 1600x1200. Fps is about 15 -20. 20 when not going too fast in the city. As shown. Now you can get 25-30 easy if you dont use AA and really you DONT need AA at such a high res as the res alone smoothes it all on 19" monitors do you?

Anyhow heres 1600x1200 2x AA and same af etc above.

I did expect a lot better fps considering the premium i payed for the gfx card which at time of purchasing in feb i think it was, was the very best agp card money could buy.
 
It could be you cpu holding you back? I have the HIS x1950pro turbo one with a E6400 @ 3.6 with everything turned on full in game I get a smooth play...to know what the FPS are though, i will need to get fraps to check....but it is certainly smooth playing


edit

just ran fraps and bearing in mind im currently orthosing a higher oc the lowest it went down to was 25 but was floating around 30 most of the time

That dont seem right, ummm just to check try changing your res down to 1440x900 or something like that? still the same bad FPS? I think its just TDU been typical, in may there is a patch coming though :)
