What experience of drivers: Intermediate, not expecting to attract any aliens, but we are looking to run the GT1 World Series this winter and feel we need more drivers (we currently have 4) to run a series composed of 6-8-12-24 hour races. We would be a great for a driver who is new to endurance racing and is looking to break into the big international series.

I don't like Monster and Ken Block at all, but this livery and shot is great.

Hey guys,

So we are now 36% of the way there (according to Steam).

Early next week we'll be updating the games page with new images and video in an attempt to push our votes higher =)
We're also going to start a discussion page on Steam for ideas, wishlists and comments as we're thinking of also starting a Kickstarter campaign (when it goes live in the UK at the end of this month - no more having to have a US bank account). We'd like to add online championships and a livery editor, amoung a few other things...

...and we're keen to find out what other people would like to see in our 'historic racer'.

I would recommend making your own way to make a livery that you can run throughout the decade. Whether it be a photoshop template or ingame area. This way theres all the other teams, then you as an addition.

FBM "default" logos .psd decals?

Hi.

Where can I find .psd decals/layers for the logos present at the bottom of the FBM's sidepods, on the default skin? You know, the long line of logos with Ferodo, Castrol, etc. Check the attached picture to see what i'm talking about.

The reason why I'm asking that is, I'm trying to make a replica of a real life Formula BMW USA livery, and it seems that they had the exact same decals at the exact same place in the real life series too.

Sorry if the answer to my question is obvious... This is the first time I make a serious attempt at skinning the FBM

Quote from Eclipsed :





Requested by Litro - Beats by Dr. Dre livery for XRR,based on Mount Zion's created livery for BMW M3 3D skin in TrackMania.
So I took this challenge and fullfilled the request,since the paint scheme looks really cool,so here it is,I hope you like it!



Thanks to:
  • Daloonie for his XRR bodykit and Master skinnerz for their skin kit,
  • Litro for this idea,as working on this I improved my skills and learned something new too,
  • Mustang for these cool preview renders - original render here in FullHD

I took this design and modified it for the use of the M3 GT2 on Track mania, but Icannot except the full rights to the livery due to me not being the origenal designer.

Here is a picture of the origenal design, all i did was copy it, from scratch and apply it to a M3 Model from Track mania. I Cannot find the car no more or the designer

Anglo-Saxons moaning about ABC *sigh*

You guys are very lucky to not really know what a genuinely bad sport coverage is

I'd still take Scott Goodyear and Marty Reid over 85+% of the commentators we have here in France. Not that I rate Scott or Marty so highly BTW.



__

(OFF TOPIC) In case you are wondering, here's what a bad French racing coverage looks like:


a) Actual coverage starting several seconds before the lights go out, or AFTER the lights go out.


b) Commentator not focussing on the action when the lights go out, or even worse, finishing the broadcast INTRODUCTION(!) when the lights go out.


c) The broadcast has only 1 commentator(OK, can be understandable if the channel is small).


d) Half of the commetaries consist of over-the-top drivel about one/several driver(OK, Americans have Danica, but it's not even half of the madness we have to face. And at least female drivers are/used to be a novelty, while male French racing drivers are NOT a novelty, at least not for the last 100 years or so.


e) Includes stupid and random bad-mouthing, or even insults from one of the commentators, toward one driver in particular, for no proper reason(includes: Luis Razia has nothing to do in GP2[while he's a series race winner], Adrian Sutil is an moron, beca ... not give way to red cars[well, why should he, when he's in the same lap], Katherine Legge and Simona de Silvestro are only there because of their gender, while Ana Beatriz is the real deal[yea, obviously driving an AA/Chevy instead of a Slotus helps...]).


e2) Commentator withdraws the insult in question, when he realises that the driver he just insulted is French(= Jacques Laffite on Charles Pic, at the latest Spanish GP:doh


f) Commentators have no clue on basic rules of the series they comment on, like points systems.


g) Commentators can't identify one car/bike by the number or the livery.


h) (Indy 500 one) Coverage misses half of the pre-race ceremonies, because the highlights of a 10 GT3s race in Navarra are so much more important than the Indy 500.


i) I guess I could go on, can't recall of more at the moment.

Peugeot is back! Wait a second... It's a Toyota! Was it Toyota's intention to scare Audi with this livery?

Quote from -NightFly- :I think it's safe to say that i have never took someones skin and drove around with it. So according to your logic: I like Western Wolves teamskin, i just go to my downloaded skins folder, put it on my main skins folder and go drive around with it on public servers? For me it's not ethical....but that's just me.

I think this is a different problem. The LFSW interface isn't intended to be used by groups (their support for teams is restricted to an user-fed database and newsreel). Still, in the event of someone who grabs the skin of a team they don't belong to and go driving in public with it, they'd just make clowns off themselves, as all the seven forum users still active in-game know who's in which team most of the time.

As for the original issue of stealing "private", individual skins, I'd like to put it under a new perspective. Think of it like this: we, skin makers, don't really own the rights to any of the logos and trademarks we use when making our skins. This doesn't necessarily mean we're stealing from any companies, because of fair-use and all that. However, that doesn't forbid other people from doing the same and creating, through their own efforts, copies of the original livery - and by this I mean, among other things, grabbing a "snapshot", if you will, of your skin. You'd have to be pretty stupid to call someone a thief for having a skin that's similar to the one you made.

The same applies in this case. We don't hold exclusive rights to your work. In fact, we hold no rights at all in 99% of the time. The fact that someone saved a copy of your skins with the same filename even implies that they aren't looking to claim credit for it, but simply found our work nice and wanted to use it, just like we did when we saw whatever inspired you to create it - the merits of having to start from scratch or not in order to achieve that are irrelevant, even more so because what one might consider as " starting from scratch" is, in truth, the result of somebody else's work - the logos we collect from the web, the pictures we take as source for the overall design, the skin template we use et cetera.

If anyone is into car livery design there's a contest going on for UK residents!

http://artcar.dunlop.eu/en/index.php?task=artGallery

they say no professional graphic designer allowed but I am not sure how well they can police it.

yeah it will be an ambitious try, but punching above my weight and creating opportunities that shouldnt be there is my strong suit. plus even if it doesnt work out theres no harm getting some attention, who knows maybe they will outsourse some livery work when they are too busy with other parts of the campaign etc.

Quote from TFalke55 :PS: I hope you are creative and don't want only Dale Sn #3, Dale Jr #88 or Jeff #24 skins.

Should this be a hint to a certain someone being not creative?

I think I should come back for the 250&500, I loved them(Not to mention I made the Top Ten twice!).

Just asking: You've still got my livery from last year? The only thing that must be cleaned must be the rookie stripe on the bumper I believe, and it's good to go...
