Thankyou for help

I have just "finished" my setup for Sexbierum using the method Scrapman was talking about and I managed to take my lap times down from anything between 16 and 17 seconds to consistent 14.3/4s with the occassional .2. This only took me 167 laps and alot of tweaking and tbh I'm not even sure if those times are very good lol! But I did enjoy doing it and now I'm off to make one for Belle Vue

Hi, I'm not sure if this has been covered before or not but when I go to find an rFactor server I cannot find any atall, none come up on the server list. I tried typing in the IP address to jolt 3 last night but it found nothing, but this has worked before...any ideas?

Tosh's FTO, it's more or less the same skin just transferred over from the Randall template...

Yes, the tar car is finished and the shale car is more or less done but missing the bit of information on the front of the bonnet stating who signed it etc, and I don't know how easy this will be to get a hold of as he has gone and re-panelled the damn thing lol! I hope to be releasing both skins at the end of next month sometime, along with 3 or 4(or maybe 5) others. The 606 tar skin which will be accompanied by a 702 tar skin and I also have a completely re-vamped 854 skin and if I have time I will also be doing a 318 skin...and the 5th one, well you'll just have to wait and see!

Thanks for comments so far everyone. Yeah Tosh was unsure wheather he wanted it on an FTO or an '06 Randall so I said I would do it on both and he could decide, FTO on its way with a few changes to signs...

Neat skin Samson, looks much better than before. I like the sidepods with the checks and coachlines lol, nice work.

Happy Birthday Jimmy! ...15...ooo ya ancient!!!

Tosh's for next season...maybe...

Recently I have started getting loads of requests for skins, logos etc...So I thought I would start a thread on here and keep coming back to it everytime a new skin is done and I want to put it on the forum, instead of making a new topic each time. I will post pics and if necessary the tex file and drivers text of each car. First off though I will just post a few pics of the cars I've done so far, hope this is ok. More to come soon!

This was all from Demonstate and RickyB. You may have to add an overlay/darken layer on top of your gradient and just play about with it until you get the right look. Also, on the Tigra pic above I only used 3 colours in the gradient and because one blue was so dark then the next much brighter and the last one was also very bright so it came out blocky. You need to use lots more colours that are closer to each other and blend easier. I was up until the early hours pl;aying with the F1 skin and I made some progress but still getting the blocky lines however it isn't nearly as bad. Off to try and sort it now lol.

When all one shade the car looks nice and smooth. I think it's because I'm using Elements, Demonstate has given me a few tips on MSN so thanks to all who offered help. Appreciate it.

crap render...im feeling free to tell u

Here are a couple of pics.

Hi, Recently I have started trying to do gradients on cars so that they fade from light to dark, or have a pearlescent sort of look like on FWJ's tar F1. Once I have spent quite some time trying to perfect the look in Photoshop I then convert it and put it in the game. When it comes up in the game the gradient is all blocky and it looks terribble, however in Photoshop it looks really nice and smooth. I have had all the graphics turned up to full and I've had them turned right down and I've even tried them inbetween, nothing seems to make a difference. In Photoshop when I save it I make sure that the TGA is at 24 bit and have tried converting the TGA at 1024x1024 and 512x512 but it still comes out the same. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks alot. Martin

oh no another rumour!..wouldn't get to excited tosh!

Heard he was giving up and doing something within Brisca...

PBP is no more lol...means theres a gap in the market Splinter...

LMAO was worth getting up so early on Sunday just to see him stop in the gravel trap trying to enter the pits...mind you it wasn't as good as Ron's reaction !!! He is the most engineered driver ever, it's pathetic! Kimi for the driver's title and Ferrari for the Constructor's...oh no, they've already won the Constructor's because Mclaren were cheating

Photoshop Elements 3.0
