final entry​

I used an aperture of 1.4, but it didn't have the effect I wanted, so I blurred the background in GIMP.​

[jgda9rs]

that's a great entry there swiss! very creative. atlop's is quite good as well. the black and white suits the approach really well.

 

[boiltheocean]

Am I allowed because of the text?​

 

[tupacrulez]

No TT it is...

 

[MinoltaMan89]

I don't think TT is allowed in any comps, except for that one a while ago where it showed it in the rules.

 

[tupacrulez]

well the cars part is open, so I assumed as long you followed the aperture rules i was golden. I don't have GT4 anymore. when my games were moved, my dad saw the beat up case and threw it out, game inside.

 

[Swiss Legend]

Am I allowed because of the text?​

I'm gonna let it go. Consider it a sig for the pic. If anyone has an issue with this, let me know, but it's gonna stand.

Dunno if T is allowed, but I thought this'd make a good entry:

FINAL ENTRY

Sorry man, that killer[/] shot can't stand. No TT

 

[tupacrulez]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! 👍

Not funny. I really wanted to enter this. Plus, my GT4 shot-taking ability is nill, I just can't do it anymore like i used to. I don't get how when a vehicles category is open you can't use bikes. it's not like I'm using an unallowed filter or that TT has a graphics upgrade that GT4 doesn't. If anything the rider is modeled almost poorly, and clips right through the bike during a hard lean, ruining the shot.

i just don't understand how when the vehicles category is open i can't use TT. it's limiting....

 

[SVX]

How about some one makes a comp in Tourist Trophy forum part?

 

[tupacrulez]

because TT is nearly dead for the most part. not many people play it. you think these boards get slow sometimes....

 

[SVX]

Won't it live it up?

 

[tupacrulez]

I'll talk to a few of the people there and see if any of them would be interested. If they are, I'll talk to a few of the people here to see how hard it is to host a comp.
