Test Drive Unlimited Platinum

Post by Luna »

TDU 1 is still not dead. There are even new projects growing from the ground to provide the best driving experience ever.
Some days ago I read about Test Drive Unlimited Platinum in the turboduck forums. This project is lead by Milli, some of you may know Milli from the Ultra Community Pack with more than 450 vehicles.

With TDU Platinum Milli even tries to top the older project. The objective of TDU Platinum is not only in gathering of different vehicles, sounds and gauges from different online websites and packing them together, it goes further to new physics, brand new weather, compatible with HDiR, new world textures and also new music for background and radio statios.

Main Features:
  • New Physics
  • Over 750 vehicles
  • Correct color names
  • Dedicated camera for each vehicle
  • New weather - HDiR compatible
  • New map textures
  • New radio stations
  • Easily moddable
  • Easy installation

Unfortunately I can't post links ... again ... So just go to the turboduck forums and search for threads with "Test Drive Unlimited Platinum" in the title, this will directly show you the correct thread.

In the thread you can find more info about the project, a trailer video, pictures and a vehicle list with 411 cars and bikes in it. These are the vehicles you can directly buy at the showrooms, the rest of almost 400 rides are available through the tuning shops by converting one car into another, like the Mustang that becomes a Saleen during tuning in the vanilla game.
See you on the road ... and the sea ... and in the air ;) :lol:

Milli is pretty ambitious and skilled and very nice person. (Not to mention she's a beautyful brasilian girl. :mrgreen: ) I follow her work (mostly silently) for quite some time.

I think you will also find a lot of infos in the TDU Project Paradise Facebook-group.

Tried it yesterday for about half an hour and already like it :) Somehow I don't see my character ingame, but I think this could be because I didn't do a new clean install but used my old one and only removed all the mods I was using.
But the game itself looks awesome for a 13 years old game, and it has so many of the latest rides :)
Did some test rides yesterday at the car dealers I discovered so far. There is so many new stuff to find. This is absolutely great work from Milli :clap: :text-bravo:

Totally agree. Even when I never used Hardcore Mode in the past I feel a lot of improvement. I started a new save with TDUP and I never ever managed in the vanilla game to be more than 20 seconds ahead at the last visible split time in the first f-class race ;)
