Yeah, I thought I read that somewhere. I enjoyed the practice for this event anyway even though I didn't get to race. Got me kinda used to using a wheel lol. @Ricardo Edelmann

@Scott Kelly Yes the next GT3 race will be on Sat 3rd May - the location will be revealed soon
(the race after that will be replaced by the WEC though as Ricardo said)

@Davy Lauwereys

What settings should you select when saving a skin?

I'm using Paint.net and saving them as DXT5(Interpolated Alpha), which I'm sure was what I used before with no issues, but now it is pretty shiny.

 

[Petra Sklenarova]

i use Photoshop. the shine is controled by the skin's alfa. more dark=less shiny. and yes, dxt 5, all mipmaps.

good question... i downloaded paint.net because apperently the gimp dds converter is flawed on W7 and i couldn't get them right.... but i couldn't find anything, anywhere on wich dds setting to use in paint.net for rfactor2, except for use DXT5 interpolated alpha....wich, yeah, don't work either.... having faffed about in paint for an hour trying all sorts of dxt settings and it still not working, i went back to gimp and am currently bodging it, with great succes i might add

Maybe Petra can elaborate, i found paint abit to basic anyways, having used gimp for years, so i uninstalled it already...

[Davy Lauwereys]

i've uploaded the broadcast to youtube, incase the twitch one goes down.

 

[Daiman Patel]

Issue solved, Dennis is awesome, JS.

Hey, I helped too!

 

[Daiman Patel]

Need to complain.

No one stayed behind the safty car

Everyone is disqualified - even the safety car, because it continued to race!

 

[Daiman Patel]

I hope everyone enjoyed the race, and the broadcast (if you watched it). Also, apologies to anyone who's name I pronounced incorrectly during the stream. Thanks to all for taking part - awesome event! Shame about the blue flag and penalty issue - this shall be resolved for the next race.

Look out for information regarding the next event - thread will be posted soon.

You pronounced my name pretty well for someone who doesn't speak German (I guess), but Ricardo does, so I think you learned it from him

Would be great to have it somehow on the official RaceDepartment channel, which has more than 3000 subscribers, so it might attract some more drivers.

HAHA! Little secret... I studied German for 5 years when I was 14, but have barely spoken a word of it for about the past 5 years now!
