Are my posts in this thread ignored? Asked similar stuff regarding the font twice before. As I didn't get an answer I just went with what looks better.

Yup everyone is ignoring you.



I probably didn't answer because, at the time, I hadn't done the name on my car and so didn't know there was a conflict. Plus I'm no expert.

Chris , which files do you want? the ".veh" or/and the dds file?
I assume not the window and windshield dds.

Its a crap attempt, but i like it, Leigh might not though,

Nick.

@Chris Stacy will have to reply but at a bare minimum he will need both the .veh and your .dds file.

Sorry mate, not intentional.
If you're having trouble getting the font right, then you can just send me the finished skin as a PSD and I can add the correct font to the body. As for the windows, again, leave that to me as they'll be uniform (unless you're adding logo's to your window in which case you must get the numbers correctly formatted, otherwise I'll just delete it and make a standard window).

I will need both Nick. The VEH files tell the game which textures to 'grab' for your car and some other things too. I can correct them if you've made errors however.

Problem is this

Font selected in the template (when you open the psd and edit the text layer) - Adobe Gothic Std

Font for driver names according to the fonts.txt file in the archive - Bank Gothic Md BT

Which one's the correct one? That's all I need to know. Went with the 2nd for the moment as it looks way better imo.

I'll let someone else confirm but from previous experience your kind of half right.

Adobe Gothic Standard is used on the names above the doors, that was the case for the previous league with these cars and I believe it's the case here. Certainly that's the font photoshop looks for when you edit the name.

Bank Gothic MD BT is the font used on the windows for your name. Windscreen file and external glass.

Yes it does look better but we'd better keep the admins happy. Haha.

Hope that helps.

hm, windshield.psd has adobe gothic std as well though.

Hiya,

Ok, I wasn't on my PC earlier so that answer was a little from memory. My mistake.

Adobe Gothic STD is used for all naming on screens and car.

Bank Gothic BT is what Reiza use on the windscreens but we are not using that for the league.

Here are the colours for @Steve Le Gallez and Team LG Racing

Thanks to Steve for letting me do the design for you, good luck for the league

PM has been sent for link to files

Upped the stakes there!
Beautiful job!
Hope the skin pack can include the team garage for all teams that can provide one.

Ah okay, I see what you mean.
Please use Adobe Gothic Std, as per the template's default. The text file in this instance is wrong.

Apologies for the readme text file, some of the things are a bit out of date. Also, again, my fault but I forgot to update the file naming.txt file (really should have just deleted it), to include the fact that the helmets should be saved in DXT5 Interpolated Alpha. This info is included in the actual Helmet and Driver folder, so hopefully most have read from there.

Nice work @Sam Smith! Looking good

 

[ARG1980]

Just to be clear, windows are you guys doing, or should I make them my self?

 

[Michael Stead]

@ARG1980

In fact you don't really need to touch the ext_glass.psd at all because I will be going through them all before the skin pack is compiled to make sure they're all the same design.

 

[ARG1980]

Inside and outside?

 

[Michael Stead]

Inside and outside?

I assume so. If you haven't painted the outside, what would be the point of doing the inside?

 

[ARG1980]

@ARG1980

Inside and outside

I assume so. If you haven't painted the outside, what would be the point of doing the inside?

the inside is mirror of the outside, so you have to make it and the alpha layer as well.
@Chris Stacey could you please confirm that the dds files regarding windows is sorted by the staff?
