GT Sport Check out the New GT Sport Custom Paint Feature Video

Paul Jeffrey · Aug 8, 2017

Details of the new customer livery editor from Gran Turismo Sport have surfaced, showing a powerful tool for designing liveries in the upcoming new GT Sport title.

Delivered courtesy of the team from PlayStation Access, the brief new video gives us a very first look at the brand new livery editor that has been included in the upcoming Gran Turismo Sport racing game on PlayStation 4.

Now those with a grounding in PC racing games are well aware of the power of creating custom liveries, with most online racing leagues requiring your own dedicated paint scheme before entering the league, and with real world replica schemes going a long way towards filling up grids of cars to make for semi complete full racing series from around the world.

Unfortunately for those limited to just console racing, the ability to mod and paint as is in PC versions of racing titles don't have the advantage of creating scores of liveries outside of the core game software, and as such rely on in game paint editors to get their skinning kicks in a game.

Gran Turismo and Polyphony Digital have produced an updated and more powerful livery editor for GT Sport, giving players a reasonably impressive number of options and features when looking to make their own schemes in the new title. Thanks to PlayStation Access, we can check out the 6 minute plus video of the new feature in action below:

GT Sport will release for PlayStation 4 on October 17th.

Imagining you mean Raceroom, apples and oranges. Two totally different business models, with different legal implications limiting what goes and what not.

Oh God...I never been so hyped for a PS racing game...simulator or not, GT is GT.

Tell you what, don't make stupid comments. I mean, the guy is simply stating that he would like this feature in another game as well. You've never done this? So, if there's ever a car you want in a game make sure YOU don't mention it. Make your own game instead.

Haven't played GT for years but this is long, long overdue.

Will Mazeo · Aug 8, 2017

Last GT I really played was GT2 lol, I think I did literally one lap in GT3 since then never again

Mr Latte · Aug 8, 2017

Will have a lot of talented people do amazing designs. Long overdue for GT players.
It's a great element to have in a racing game and very satisfying to see and share communities efforts. Will likely also enhance photo mode interaction.

Question for me, is will Forza 7 finally have an updated/improved version of its own now long in the tooth livery editor, mmmm mmmm?

If the PC version supports custom made decals / liveries for the market place, I'm in. I talking about one's I design on Illustrator and Photoshop.

Actually I was thinking about GTR3. It is one of my life's little pleasures, skinning cars. I hope they give us the ability to do so in GTR3.

A very measured response in the face of a complete tool.

MOD - EDIT: JUST DON'T !!

Dear Timmy, I'm sure you're skating on thin ice on RaceDepartment. Who wants to deal with you? Why should we put up with your vulgar comments? I for one am all for a ban on your account so I'll request that from a moderator.

Mr Latte · Aug 8, 2017

@Timmy UK not sure if that is oversteer or understeer related but think you need to bring it in for a black flag.

Ah, stupid me. I forgot that SimBin reincarnated from the dead some months ago and indeed work on a new sim of their own (which later will give its gfx engine to Raceroom, they say). I tend to stick to the memory of Raceroom having become what in past years was expected to be GTR3, before the old SimBin studio collapsed and Sector3 too over. My wrong.
