@patrick :I disagree, it's time to stop using abs. I can understand with locking problem with 1.60 to turn low on but with 1.70 it's no more a problem. GSC brake is not more harder than other sim like netkar pro.

2x25 minutes and x2 : +1 for me.

 

[Ivo Simons]

Must say i never had problems with 1.6 also. But i understand some people did.

 

[Ivo Simons]

You need to upload your pic Bruno.

Also the 23 is already used so I would like to take the 56 if it's possible, skin is wip

@ Anders: Yes, custom skin is mandatory. But there are three very good possibilities for you.

1) You don't send a skin and take the standard Racedepartment car.
2) You ask one of our skinners to change name and number on an ingame car.
3) You ask one of our skinners for a brand new car.

Dave and Nathan are always very helpful, you could ask one of them. And I am also there

Cheers Robert Il think i go with option two .. Just need to find a good looker first

 

[Mat Venn]

So i will need to have a new skin for the series of races ? Maybe i will use the race department one .

Never mind .

 

[Nathan Robinson]

Picture:

I had originally started with Precision Motorsports but Bram pointed out that there was already an existing Precision Motorsports. Not want to intrude on that team, I have changed our team name to Breakaway Motorsports. Skins look good guys, cant wait to get this under way

Any one needs help, pm me

 

[Diogo Macedo]

Nice skin Nathan.

 

[Evan Madore]

Still working on my skin. This is what I have so far. I am stuck, there is definitely something missing. Any suggestions?

 

[tAz-07]

i'll try to do my own skins but have some questions regarding name&number:

With the gimp & templates .psd i see "drivername" and "number" (at different place depending which .psd i use) calc. But can we change the default number (00) directly (if i click with the gimp text tools on number once calc selected i don't see 00) or i need to create a new calc ?

is there a simple howto with gimp for that ?

2) You ask one of our skinners to change name and number on an ingame car.

don't know we can do that, i've mean and see with gimp/dds plugin that .dds does not have calc to edit. Maybe another tools can do that.

thanks !

I don't know much about Gimp, I know it can open psd (photoshop) files with layers no problem but if i remember well, i think it doesn't work well with text, i think Gimp import photoshop text as image, so you can't edit it. But i'm sure you could recreate the exact same thing using Gimp text tool.

Numbers: Font: Impact Regular (you should have it)
Size: Roof - 210 pt, Side Windows - 76 pt, Front Windows - 214,22

Name: Font: Bank Gothic Md BT Medium (probably have to download it)
Size: Side windows - 28 pt, Front window - 50 pt


Maybe someone know a way to import photoshop text as text

 

[Jari Vinnari]

I like your skin Evan. Perhaps a sponsor sing to side and the hood of car would do the trick but it also could destroy the clean look.

 

[tAz-07]

RedMetal : thanks i'll try photoshop trial or gimp with your font size & position informations.

There is a tutorial in french here : http://sim-racing-evolution.fr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1021

First WIP shots of the Racedepartment car:

The Racedepartment car will be there for every driver who does not send in a skin. It will get a personal number and name on it, and it will be available in several colour combinations.

Really cool Robert.
