He took a picture during a replay. The photo travel limits you to only two cars but hitting start while watching any replay will bring up a menu where you can choose to take pictures.

Whisky is right.positioned them on opposite ends of the stage then took two pictures. Make sure you do not move the camera. Then photoshop for the splice

 

[Rolly21581]

Actually, the pic he's referring to is lower in the first post and is a splice of 2 pictures he took in photo mode. Jobyone knows the secrets of the photoshopforce and uses them regularly.

ahh thats what i was wondering, damn that sucks, guess il have to enveil the lineup two at a time,

Well if you position them correctly I could always splice them together for you. I would love to see everyone do this with there favorite lineup (and stated PP break down). I could use them for the opening post. If you try to do it make sure there is no overlap between the two sets of cars and that you do not change anything on the camera settings.

I will give it a try but it looks like your camera lens was different. I will see if I can get them to line up.



Not perfect. Next time make sure every camera setting is identical especially the position. Any movement makes it hard to line up.

Let's try this thing out....

It would appear Tez has some photoshopphotogforce-fu as well.

Ok, I'll try to remember to log on in 3 hours or so.

 

[88GTA]

@tezgm99

[88GTA]

Room open: 1472-4711-0038-4891-2014

Closed. See you tomorrow Tez

 

[JLBowler]

I will have to miss tomorrow night. Got assigned to work and won't be home in time for the festivities.

 

[jobyone]

Everyone make sure you download the patch and have it installed before tomorrow night. I do not know how big it is but I will try to find out tonight if it goes live.

 

[zeromisfit999]

A bit of an idea popped into my head this evening that may be something we could utilize here. We've got racers here within this league from all abilities. From d1 right down to d5-d6. I've got an idea to make it a little more fun for the "losingest" driver. Say someone just has a flat out bad night, or simply can't keep pace. Rather than that person being discouraged, a few ideas come to mind. Maybe letting the last place driver select 1 car for the following week for the first place finisher of that week. It is really just a thought, nothing more.

I think that the driver with least amount of points should get a either a 1 grade softer tire or get a additional 125pp to use the next week.

 

[88GTA]

We had discussed handicaps in the past and used similar strategies. 125pp is a bit much because I think we used to give out 20-40pp extra for the night or one tire grade up.

I used a 20pp handicap for a while so if anyone thinks they need it, speak up. Once you place top 3 or 4 you lose it though. Maybe @jobyone can remember the rules better.

 

[fastfox400]

5-10pp on average realy wont seperate the fast guy to the slow guys in all reality. Gt6 is way different that Gt5. 30-40pp isnt no big deal split over 4 cars. but 15-20 would even things up.

 

[IceWarden]

We came to the conclusion since we aren't super serious people here, anyone who wants to throw some better tires on or grab an extra 10-15pp then it's cool. We just like close racing. How can you get better and learn if you have no one to race with?

ya i def suck, but most of mine i think comes because i need to learn alot of the courses as well as you guys know them.
. i might use +1 tires, but i accept the idea of racing myself in lap times too. racing is kind of like golf, sometimes your racing vs yourself before you got to worry with anyone else.

I got 2/4 cars ready got to figure out the last two, have 3 mainly nailed down trying to figure out #4

 

[88GTA]

I will be on for a little after work today but I'll be doing the new seasonals and getting some $$$. Racing is 10:30pm EST but if @JoeW has the room up I'll be in before 10pm.

Line-up:
FF - Trial 467pp
4WD - Ford 480pp <--- subject to change
FR - Toyota 483pp
MR - Honda 470pp

 

[IceWarden]

I should be in room by 9:30-9:45.
