Test Drive Unlimited 2 [2011/BNK]

[DevilZ]

Disabling wheel blur does wonders though.

Would you be kind enough to tell how to do it please? The wheel blur is really fugly

[madmax]

You'll need to decrypt GamePC.cpr and edit this file, then encrypt it again. I don't remember where did I get tdudec from, but that's the program you need to decrypt/encrypt cpr files.
There's a line: MV_RADIAL_BLUR = 1, change it's value to 0 (zero).

[DevilZ]

Mhhhhhh I thought it would look like in TDU1.
Why did they put this ugly wheel blur in game

[madmax]

Why did they put this ugly wheel blur in game

There's a lot of shit in TDU2 and missing several great features, not to mention that stupid encryption on game files. The 1st TDU was better though. Now I'm playing TDU1 again lol.

Hi,

Is someone can edit bnk files or not again ?

Bye

Wow i was surprised when i saw this thread was still going...

Nice update on the launcher there Knyazev, will test it later on.
I have to say thou i've not been on TDU2 in over a month or so now. Might start up again if it becomes more moddable

[Coco]

I'm still impressed, how it's going on here.
Great stuff, Knyazev and all the others.

What I, and I guess many others, still need is a new bnk-(re)packer.
Unfortunately I'm an absolutly noob in programming.
Does somebody know about an updated version able to handle tdu2 bnks?

[Xarlith]

We all are waiting for a bnk packer . It is possible to write such BMS script since we have an unpacker but it will be much harder for a programmer. We also need a script to decrypt/unpack some config files which are not supported by tdudec.

@Knyazev Is it possible in future Universal Launcher releases to select desired TestDrive2.exe without modifying registry key? For example if somebody have both unpacked and packed game in different directories and he wants to run packed game with the help of original TDU2 launcher to check for updates he have to re-edit registry key. With light launcher there was no such problem.

Okay. In the next version I will do this. Thanks)
Will be created a new registry key ( HKLM\\SOFTWARE\\Atari\\TDU2 - "GameFolder" line ), ok?

and then U.L will be use this new registry key. it's good)
without change the main registry key of the game!

[Xarlith]

I think this will be better. Thanks!

[Knyazev]

I think this will be better. Thanks!

Finished!
New version is available now!

This version of launcher (v1.0) will be very useful to those who uses two and more versions of game! (packed/unpacked/without patches)

It comes up with a msg when I try to import the file. Even though it's the same file I imported earlier.
