Hello,
I was playing CCD as usual and then this came up, which can't be true since I bought the game and played for years (I have a purchase confirmation)

Why does this come up?

1. How did you get hands to show up?

2. Check the post here

3. To prevent torrented games it needs to use internet and check for a licence so if you lost connection, then this would show up.

In addition to TJ's solution, if it doesn't work, uninstall the game and make sure it's deactivated, delete the Forward Development folder in the Documents library (MAKE a BACKUP), and install it again, then activate as usual.

BTW, they fixed the language issue in the activation window. If you haven't already, re-download the installer from the site and use that :)

And for TJ, the hands can be enabled by playing around with the game.ini file in Documents\Forward Development\City Car Driving\config

I think it was this line, where you change the value from 1, to 3 (or something like that). Not so sure though, because last time I did this was version 1.2.2, three years ago :lol: .
DriverPartsInFirstPersonCameraMode=1

Okay thanks, apparently my internet crashed for a few minutes, now it works again and I can play normally.

About the hands, what Jericho said, you have to change DriverPartsInFirstPersonCameraMode from 1 to 2
But if you think about doing it, don't. Even if you move the camera as much to the front as possible, if you accelerate you still see the drivers head all the time. It will only make sense when I figure out how to move the camera even more to the front than normally possibe

Sure, you go to

Documents\Forward Development\City Car Driving\config

Then open the file "game.ini", and search for " DriverPartsInFirstPersonCameraMode=1 "

Then change it from "1" to "2", save the file and start the game.
