TY WiCKed666 for that, looks like I'll have to back up my root, some important stuff there as well (old, but still, don't save anything anymore to c:\)

Jesus, how the hell do you mess an (un)installer that bad? And don't give me "It's a beta, what did you expect" crap!


It's not the first time anyone has done the same thing. Used to have all NVIDIA related stuff on C:\NVIDIA folder, because it created that folder and it was easy to install drivers there. There were some 8 driver versions, many forceware drivers and other nvidia related programs. Used driver uninstall to remove driver once and it deleted the whole folder.. Smile

Agree you on there that something like this should not happen, some people might lost something unreplaceable. Hope no-one in NFOrce doesn't lose anything valuable now.

If the TDU unistaller really mess the system files, its better deleting the Game folder.

Then run a program called CCleaner to clear the entries of the game.

I use a similiar program to clean the registry. It helps too to improve the game performance, for your information. Wink

Here is the answer of atari community:

[BFs]GBesaw: "In all likelihood, saved game will not be usable in the retail game - But, that is not certain at this point. I have backed up my saved game to try when the retail is released."

I have already deleted the BETA, because i am waiting for the full version and will play through it all again! I have tested the BETA and i am convinced to play the full as well. Hopefully they managed to remove the system crashes untill then! Regarding to this i will test the pirated version first and when it works fine i will buy the game! Fiest game for ages *lol*

Pretty easy to play the game. If you started TDU yesterday then set your date to yesterday and restart windows. You can play the game without any flaws. It's 01.02.2007 on my computer and I have still 3 days left Wink I think this way will be good enough till the final game comes out! Smile
The only important thing is that you have to restart windows and your savegame shouldn't have a newer date than your pc has!

Heh, if you edit your savegame using a hex editor and change the values at 003C and 003D to 29 and 40 hex respectively, you will have 1.8 billion dollars Very Happy

The value at 3C seems to be enough. Go to My Documents\Test Drive Unlimited\savegame\Yourname\playersave and open the file named playersave using a hex editor. Then just increase the value at address 3C by one. That should be enough to give you over 1 billion dollar. Just remember that the values are in hex, so if the original value is 39 you need to change it to 3A (and not 40 like in decimal).

Make sure you backup your original savegames first, in case anything goes wrong!

Omg, those morons! From the official letter about the C:/ bug:

Bastards.

I'm glad people caught that before it caused some serious headache. It wouldn't have caused as much headache as the game itself though, since you'd have the partial joy of it being uninstalled even if your windows goes with it. Smile

Wow this game rocks with FF wheel! Just tried the very first time and after some ½h sensitivity tweaking (force full, sensitivity/sensitivity bar/linearity near center) it handels great. You can even do burnouts with brake, or snailspeed dounughts if you're good with brake pressure.

No aids and manual gears is such a joy to drive RW cars, sensitivity set right you can flick the tail out in corners just with fast steering, in keyb I had to use handbrake. Really nice feedback the game fives if your going to loose tail under braking, freeway bumps feel too (bad roadwork Very Happy).

Brake pressure needs and adjustment or even linearity slider would do. Now it locks wheels even with the slightest pressure and same goes for gas. Starting from standstill is nearly impossible without wheelspin and powersliding is really hard for same reason.

Now some more last day driving, seems like I have to buy it now. Stupid me for hooking my wheel up Razz

No, you are a moron. This was beta. This was a bug, which is a common thing in beta software. They fixed it in retail. Sad to see so many clueless people in this thread who don't know what beta software and beta testing means.

It's a kind of bug that can't be allowed in an open public beta. At least an "Oops, sorry" would be more than appropriate. So moron yourself.

P.S. And I've already had it with your personal hatred issues.
