ew.. yeah its dangerous business.. face into glass on edge of desk or similar and these things really are pretty lethal. Im either sitting down with mine of theres a useful railing thing behind my desk which keeps me grounded if standing.

HEHEHE yeah im fine. i didnt actually break anything, just bruised stuff a lot (my ego mainly) im all better now though, so i will be back to playing eat saber and Pavlov..

Also yeah i broke out in an all over body sweat the other day, then my mouth went all watery and i realised i was suffering from my first go of motion sickness.. Pulled the headset up off my head and 2 seconds later i was fine. But for those few seconds things did feel VERY odd..

Eek! The only thing I've broken in VR is a massive sweat! I hope you're alright, Nobby. Take it easy, play some comfort VR games, and you'll be back to throwing your arms and head around in no time

Ouch!

but yeah for VR, esp. a Vive you need a big empty room in best case scenario. The friend of my sister has a 20qm room reserved for it and never is completely alone when playing, just in case he is near a wall or the desk in the corner. get well soon.

So the other day, i nearly broke a few ribs.. I was playing a VR game and of all the stupid things it requires you to lean forward or back to dive or climb. If you lean more than about 10 degrees forward while you cant see whats going on you will fall over.. And thats what happened, only problem is, my desk is only about 1 meter in front of me. I slammed into it blind, but its ok, my ribs took most of the impact

SO i uninstalled the game and asked for a refund. And ive had to stay off VR for a couple of days while my ribs recover (i had a nice bruise up my ribs yesterday)

Joined that Tduworld site and I let them know that I will help them with any networking needs they need.

Oh and one more thing. Atari didnt make TDU2.. Eden games did. Atari was just the copmpany that released it. But they was such a bunch of assholes to Eden games. most of eden games walked out. Towards then end of TDU2's playable lifespan there was just a small handful of people still working there.. Nobody in their right mind would make another game like TDU under atari's name. Not after the fiasco with eden games.

That would be a great idea and all, but ywo major issues with that. 1- Do you honestly think just because a bunch of people "DEMAND" a company make something, do you really think they are just gonna say " Oh ok then " and put their hand in their pocket and spend millions developing a new game.. Just coz you said they had to?? and secondly... Atari no longer own the rights to TDU. Another company gained the rights and said they MIGHT do a massive multiplayer online racing game. But that was about 2 years ago when they acquired the rights and nothing has been seen since...

POTM-Contest Text Thread

Hello tdumods.com-community,

You can post any picture taken ingame. It doesn't matter if you take the picture with the ingame-camera or only "fraps" a screenshot while driving.

Rules:

- Every month has it's own theme under which condition the picture should be taken
- Pictures can be reworked/enhanced with Photoshop or similar programs but without adding any "foreign objects". That means feel free change colours, add effects, or whatever else you can think of, but the original TDU2 car and at least most of the elements of the original background/scenery should still be present in your final image (btw: its not restricted to the original cars, you can also take pics of modded cars)
- The picture has to be uploaded with the attachment-function. Please do not post external links
- The picture must be 800px wide and can be between 450px and 800px high
- You may not compete with a picture that has already been posted in the screenshot-gallery. And you are not allowed to upload the picture that you are competing with to the screenshot gallery until after that months competition has ended. That means you sometimes will be "forced" to photograph some new pictures
- You can change your chosen picture within the month, until we close the certain thread, but only one picture per user can compete
- The voting takes place during the first week at the following month
- Every registered user can vote for the pictures except for their own
- The monthly winner has the right to choose the next months theme and the winning picture gets his rightful place in the "POTM Hall of Fame"

At the end of the year all pictures of the month get into a final voting-pool for "Picture Of The Year". The POTY-Winner will get a special award added to his profile/avatar.

____________________

This months theme is

"Offroad Action"

(Shot a picture in a B-class vehicle, in action (running, jumping, going upside down, falling, whatever) in an off-road environment (either dirt road or no road at all))

Have fun!!

Entry deadline: 30th Nov 2013
Voting starts: 1st Dec 2013
Voting ends: 8th Dec 2013

Again this little reminder from my side, cause i saw that last month members continuously striked against this rule although we repeatedly asked not to:

Please don't post external links! Please use the attachmentfunktion, when uploading pics for the contest.

External links only mean more work, when swapping pictures to the voting or the Hall of Fame.

Thank you in advance

greetz Donnie

p.s.: Let's a nice contest again

Hm... Since there hasn't been one before, I'd say an Off-Road action pic

I guess someone has to come up with a fancy name for it

EDIT: The car has to be a B class one.

Basic idea is good, but can you explain a little bit more what you like to see? (So that there are no misunderstandings in that topic)

Well, a B class vehicle, in action (running, jumping, going upside down, falling, whatever) in an off-road environment (either dirt road or no road at all).
Here's an example pic (not my entry):

So, for my very 1st entry into the POTM Contest, here's my entry. Nothing great about it, except maybe for the artifacts that came with it (dust & leaves). I call it:

No birds, no planes!
