While there isn't a single official "article" by that exact title, there are several well-known save editors and tools for Test Drive Unlimited 2 (TDU2)
Infinite Resources
: Instantly cap your money (up to 999,999,999) and casino chips.
By using this editor, you are not ruining anyone else's race. You are simply removing the arbitrary time gates set by a now-defunct publisher. For most players, driving a fully tuned Pagani Zonda Cinque through the Oahu rainforest is the goal—not grinding the same police chase mission fifty times.
- Since official servers are dead (Atari shut them down in 2018?), there are no bans. However, on private servers (like TDU2 World or Project Paradise 2), modified saves may be detected or cause sync errors.
