Quote from Bean0 :

OT I know, but I was just wondering whether you stretch the template/work/then squish, or leave the template and squish the elements of the skin as you apply them ?

I've always done the latter.

I squish the elements of the skin as I apply them, since different areas of the car need different amounts of compensation.

That link above is still good to get started.

Looks to me you'll need to start spending more time with your skins to really make them stand out.
Masterskinnerz has a good guide on how to compensate for stretching for example:

Never experienced that.
Some reports I've filed date back over 2 weeks, so clearly someone's on holiday.

I've been a bit busy in other projects, but today was a bit quiet so I thought I'd make a FO8 skin.

Quote from Intrepid :

here is an example -

in the first one the driver does not observe someone is attempting an overtake.

And I was expecting to see some noob crashing into you, but all I got was you totally overshooting the braking, entering the corner at a speed and line at which it could not be driven through, practically stopping at the apex and then get turned around by the other car.

You spoke earlier about having overlap on the car ahead..
Sure it's easy to achieve that if you do what you did and just barge in. But please note the fact that you should have the overlap at the turn-in point while still being able to brake and turn in to the corner and leave room for the car on your outside if you were to enter the corner side by side.

race 2 is down

That might interest some drivers, but hardly the spectators. I wouldn't want to watch b-class racing from TV or any other source.

n00b of the series?

there can be only one winner for that..

you're good at making up excuses if all else fails..

I may have to skip this one.

I wonder which forum you've seen the results at?

It's not the tools you use, it's how you use them.

Think I've seen that one before..

I like the skin but not the bodykit. The small addon parts like the stuff "holding" the windscreen are nice, but the widebody and fake vents not

Just want to add that I don't question the judgement/penalty, just the words used reasoning it. Such a big league as MoE the admining should leave no room for misinterpretations don't you think?

Yes i saw the video, but the way you've said it isn't right regarding racing in general. Penalties always set an example for future penalties and what you're basicly saying is that people shouldn't try to pass another car (in front is usually where the passed car at that point is) at a specific corner. Shouldn't the discussion be more about overlap for example rather than a corner?

Quote from Tweaker :

One could disagree maybe, but attempting to outbrake someone that is ahead of you in this corner is clearly just asking for contact.

Maybe you'd like to rephrase that or are you now telling people where they can or cannot try to pass others?

background seems to be in wrong angle compared to the car in the foreground. All in all it's too dark as well.

highres skin added above ^

I'm not entirely happy with how the tribals look in game, but if you're using uncompressed textures it should be slightly better.

Those skins you refer to being mine are really modified by someone after I gave them to you. I wouldn't enter a competition with distorted decals or jagged edges on my graphics..
