Hi, i have organised a cruise for saturday night (9th Feb 08) Try and be at the point which i have screenshoted below for 7.30 PM, (we will wait for 5-10 mins for other people to arrive). We will set off at around 7.40 - 7.45 PM. When i say all welcome, i mean anyone at all. I would like it if we could have as many people involved as possible. No matter what car or expierence level. Although we should try and have a decent variety of cars rather than just extremely fast ones. We will turn right from the car park and follow the main road round, passing through the Kelokole Pass (stopping every so often at scenic places to take photos). Once we have reached the kelekole pass we will stop for about 5-10 minutes and then continue another 25 - 30 miles over to the other side of the island where there are another 3 or 4 places which i wish to visit. Dont worry if you dont know your way about, you'll be following me anyway. Once we have been where we want to go, we will just head back to the lighthouse and discuss if we want to head out on another cruise or not. (If someone would like to be the cruise photographer please leave a message.) We will pull over into the side of the road or somewhere nice for a break every 12 miles or so. I will be drivng a Trans-Am and my friend a GT500. So, anyway meet at the lighthouse at around 7.30 to 7.45PM. If you want to take part please leave a message saying so.
Looking forward to seeing everyone there and to the cruise itself!

Everyone is welcome as we will be driving at cruising speed around 80 - 90mph (which almost every car in the game can do) driving properly down the right hand side of the road and overtaking when required , so dont worry.There will be no Smashing into things or other people We will be pulling over for breaks quite often as well so that we can get a rest from driving and have a chat.

Originally, I was going to be building a new PC for my mum to use this weekend, but as the case I ordered had to be sent back due to being damaged very badly, looks like I'll have a free weekend.
I will most likely join you. However, I'm requesting that you change the meeting location, as at the NW lighthouse it will be IMPOSSIBLE to connect to each other, as there is so many people at the lighthouse. Find somewhere really quiet where no one goes, but is still accessible, as this will make it easier for everyone.

I dont understand what do you mean, i have never had any problems.
Adam_789

I know many other suitable locations but i do not want to make it confusing for newbies, i thought the lighthouse would be an ideal meet up point.

We Will No Longer Be Meeting At The Lighthouse. We Will Now Meet At The Point Of My Cursor On The Map Below Which I Have Screenshoted!!
Adam_789

We Will now meet here! Sorry for any inconvenience caused but it will work out better for everyone involved as the lighthouse would be to busy and we would not be able to connect to/see each other.

Could everyone please leave a message saying that they know where they are going and that they will definitely be there.
Thanks, Adam

Hey,
Right if I don't get lost I will be there. By the way mate, how do you have so much money?? I am a pro and I have $0 please tell me :)

I should be able to make it.
For those that want to jump straight there, here's the bookmark line:
"Meeting Point" 12 20873.38 166.30 18638.36 0.899 0.053 -0.434 434919595
Change the 12 to the next number in your "My docs/Test Drive Unlimited/Profile/Bookmark/bookmark.txt" file.
For money, the way I made my many millions was buying cars, then putting them on trade for the maximum amount ($9,999,999). Most of the time, they will sell, but occasionally they will be returned to you as unsold.
Also, Adam_789, please edit your posts instead of quintuple posting, or one of the mods will shout at you

Hey,
I put my Nissan skyline up for sale, how long will it take to sell it?
By the way, when I am around internet people, everybody except for one person lags??? Do you know what the problem is?
Adam_789
08-02-2008, 19:21
The problem is simple, one person has a fast broadband connection and the rest dont.
MistaFitz
08-02-2008, 19:25
Yes but I was looking at other threads and it says it is something to do with routers... I don't have a clue what a router is! and it isnt a broadband problem because everytime there is more than 1 interneet person around only one of them doesnt lag
Adam_789

Another thing that would cause this would be that people are playing test drive and downloading music at the same time which means that the game is only getting half of the connection rate.
Give me the details of the car you have put up for sale including the exact price.
MistaFitz
08-02-2008, 19:34
It's a white nissan skyline and the price is the max price you can put it is white also
MistaFitz

It's a white nissan skyline and the price is the max price you can put it is white also. How can I access my friends list? I added people but I don't know how to bring up my friend list
Adam_789
08-02-2008, 19:43
i dont know how to bring up the friends list either as there seems to be no option for it when going through the radio chrograph etc.
Adam_789
08-02-2008, 19:48
There are many white skylines. how many miles has the car done
MistaFitz
08-02-2008, 19:57
Oh sorry it has done 1213 miles
Adam_789
08-02-2008, 20:03
ok, mistafitz i cannot see the car, it may take a day or so to get onto the system, as soon as it comes on i will buy it! :)
MistaFitz
08-02-2008, 20:03
You see, the thing is if I don't get that lag thing fixed the cruise is going to be a disaster for me!! what about you? when you are in-game does ALL the players have no -//- icon beside their names?
Adam_789
08-02-2008, 20:09
Mine always lags, i think everyones does, it doesnt bother me though
I am gonna exit the forum and head into the game now see you there.

I take it this was another no-show. I turned up at about 7:35 (due to router being a pain - have to reboot it to play TDU or it disconnects after 5 mins, then it wouldn't connect back to the net), and there was no sign of anyone.
