37? is that your age or a bumper count for the F2?

have a great day m8, all the best

I have it resized to 1024 and al the lines and photoshade are now not strong, and I would like good details.

here's my 1024 of the focus template.....i see what you mean about the details, they do lose some definition when you size up, so here's the original

focus_template.zip

Where can i find or who can upload the ford focus 1024x1024 template.

ukdirt.co.uk has 512x512, what I find very small to paint the details.

 

 

And banger, stockcar F1, F2 1024x1024 templates are welcome.

the focus template was only done as 512x512 m8, just resize it to 1024 when you open it.

All the best, hope you have a gr8 day

Can anyone direct me to that track swapper and quick launch utility that saves you needing loads of track showing in all your mods? I am struggling to find a link to it.

Best bet m8 is the 1.6 Mod launcher, Direct Download Here courtesy of Modsquad - its by 'the mask', a legend in his own lunchtime lol, nah he's very good with these heat tools.....the launcher features custom track lists by mod, unlimited number of mods, patch swappers, direct connect (goes straight to your IP address without going thru the first pages in the game etc), the lot.....brilliant stuff.

its the dogs chap, only the very best for you sweetie

What made you choose your particular UK-Dirt race number/s?

lol dead easy....my dad raced as 694 in F2s and 496 in F1s in the late 70s/early 80s.......no contest really

I'd advise a router if you don't have one already....we use 2 pc's here and internet connection sharing (the connection to one machine, the 2nd machine connected through the first....imagine the connection setup is an L shape with the internet at the top, then the first machine at the middle and the 2nd machine at the other end) had problems .....the first being that both machines need to be on if pc 2 wants to connect to the internet lol.

Buy a router.....you'll save the price (between £60ish to £100ish) in electric in a year and the setups relatively easy...isn't it GazJ....DaveW.....

cheers

Can somebody offer some advice on how to get my text to curve around the wheel arches?

 

I am using PSP7 at the moment.

 

if you're using psp7, one option is to create the text (using the text button .....looks like a capital A), check its selected in the top dropdown as floating selection (so when u apply the text u type it has the dotted line surrounding), then when u unselect it use the warp brush (its one of the options in the paintbrush).

Warp brush allows you to 'warp' (i.e bend or deform) any detail, so ensure the text is on a new layer then have a play with the warp brush to deform it into a curve shape.

Both of the attached examples were done with warp brush, its a handy tool

have fun......Wrighty

i realise i ain't Nick (lol) but as a suggestion, why not save one of the cars models under a new name? that way you'll be able to apply different materials to the cars......

Happy Birthday chap, hope you have a great day

33? u sure? or is that your shoe size in centimetres?

have a great day m8 all the best

Just gone wireless, and was using my laptop before went wirless, and since going wireless, the cars keep jumping and some are invisible and other racers say they go straight through me! in the graphic options i've put all the options to low resolution but still jumpiing! any suggestions?

 

Cheers Garfie

its the connection, not the pc quality m8....wireless still has a 'bad press' for racing online, coz with 20-odd cars in the server (as there was tonight), any interruption in your connection will cause warp (the jumping cars, ghosted cars, heavy cars etc that were all mentioned tonight).

sorry m8, wireless isnt (usually) good news for Heat online

HI ALL,

 

I HAVE PAINTSHOP PRO 8 BUT HOW DO I PUT DECALS ON MY CAR? I PREVIOUSLY HAD PHOTOSHOP AND COULD DO IT ON THAT WITH A LASSO TOOL BUT NOT SURE HOW TO ON PHOTOSHOP.

 

 

ANY HELP PLZ?

same thing m8, theres a lasoo tool in psp but (in 9 anyway) its an option in the rectangle select button ....any button with a wee triangle in the bottom corner has a fly-out menu with extra options.

when u get the lasoo tool up, look for the tool options bar and select point-to-point so u can click-click-click round, rather than having to use freehand

check you have the layers list open to view (view>toolbars>layer pallette) so u can select the layer yr working in....offer the cursor over the layer name in the list and you should get a little popup window view of whats on that layer

don't suppose there's any straight tigra's parked down your street is there m8?

Happy Birthday Scrapman, hope you have a great day

thanks for dropping me in it wrighty

where there's blame, there's a claim m8

Quite what their purpose was I'm not really sure

I think thats to keep the wires parting and allowing cars through up to their rollcage (and beyond probably <gulp>)

track looks excellent Nick

Seconded.

Thirded...but tbh i was a little disappointed to see that the hard work from 'the team' didnt get them a namecheck.....

Well done and best wishes to Grasser, Sam, Hooty, NickM, Jeff (FreeW67) and Jimbob along with Madcowie of course, for all of their hard work in getting the Rfactor development to this stage so quickly.

Congrats lads

great e-zine (is it an e-zine?) tho, i'll be back for next months deffo

All the best m8, hope you have a great day

like this...

erm you've done the easy bit m8 (looks good btw)....the rest of it is done in max....map the texture onto the wheel, create the mod files, then pack it all into the common.res i'm afraid, its a bit of a faff (took me ages to do the rod wheels and some of em need doing again)

good luck ....... Wrighty

I would suggest using my up and coming hosting/domain/design business but the site isn't done yet and I wouldn't expect people to come to me without seeing and fully working site, so I would suggest the use of www.heartinternet.co.uk. Very reliable, reasonably priced and very good customer services.

 

Please, please DO NOT use easynet, iomart, ufindus or any of their affiliates, I have had numerous dealings with this company over the past 18 months and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

i'm using heart internet for so-on, the only problem is max file size is 50mb (so kev mcqueens still hosting the big file thankfully until i can fix it) but the capacity, interface and pricing structures are excellent

Not interested in your pishy rock and heavy metal nonsense...

i daresay (from the replies in this thread) that the majority here aren't interested in 'down wid da kroo, bitch-slappin mofo' blah blah gang-culture crap that tends to dominate hip-hop & r'n'b these days but they've replied to your first post reasonably enough and probably didnt deserve to be slagged off.

do i get to call you wigga without causing offence? or just foo?
