Black Paint Jobs Or Unique Colors In GT5?

[VyPeR]

I stated this before, with no repllies, so I would like to see some opinions.So does anyone think GT5 will offer more unique paint jobs on specific cars? The black paint jobs on the 4 prototype cars was a cool feature that many ppl were excited about. Maybe some diff. colors, like gold maybe, or something else like cutomizable paint jobs.

If they do bring it back, PD shouldnt be bias and add more black paint jobs on non Japanese LMP cars. I was upset I didnt see no C9,R8, Bentley Speed 8, or XJR9 black paint jobs. It just shows it right there, if these cars I listed were owned by Japanese. car manufacturers, PD would had made black paint jobs on them. So if the Toyota GT1, Mazda 787B, Nissan R92cp and R390 had a unique paint job, why not the rest?? Because they are Audis? Bentley? or any non Japanese car maker?

I believe GT5 should have a paint shop so you can make you're cars look like proper race cars, I also think it should have a kind f sposor system where the more you win with a car the more compaies ask you to put their decals on the care ect. So with that in mind, I don't think there would be any point in special colours. If GT5 doesn't offer a paint shop then sure it would be interesting to see some cars with unique colours that are hard to find ect.

I think most people would like to see paint shop / custom paint shop. I think that paint shop would be a great feature that would compliment photo mode very very well. If they could let you add stripes, stickers, race no's, flames, and other options the playability will go way way up. I doubt if very few gamers could resist totaly tweaking their ride. Then with online mode, I am sure we want are cars to stand out from the crowd. With GT4, I was like dam look at all those colors that the muscle cars come in very surprising. The core of the game needs to be rock solid before they spend time on extra features.

 

[VIPFREAK]

Yes, it would be nice to get black paint jobs easier and it would also be nice to have the "rim corral" back along with being able to put rims on race cars.

that's because the muscle cars were available in probablly all of the colors seen in the game. Mopar had some badass paint back in the day, lime green Hemi 'Cudas..Mmmm.

First of all let's get something straight. Just because of many different types of colors doesn't mean this necessarily qualifies as a street racing game. Having said this, any color combination will work well. I kind of imagined that I had a 1998 Chevrolet Camaro in a metallic red. You know, something that's a deep color, but not extremely deep like Burgundy Red for the 1969 Camaro SS. I'd surely like to imagine a just-right two-tone blue combination. I think it should be nice to have an assortment of colors. Like when I won the Aston Martin DB9 in GT4, I got it in Super Gold (a Special Color), as specified. Surprisingly, an AM DB9 in Super Gold looks pretty nice. I liked it so much, I don't know if I wanted to sell my Super Gold DB9 and keep my British Racing Green DB9. I'm still torn!

Whether you want to paint a car in black or in Reflex Spice, you bought the car, you can mess it up any way you like. I'm not saying that in terms of potential bodykits, but in terms of painting your car up. I think there should be an option to give you the chance to colorize your car any way you like. It's one thing I liked about "Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3." Heck in that game, coloring up the car is FREE. If you want to make your own team race cars, having your choice of colors would be a great idea. For you tuner types, I bet you can imagine getting a car with Signal Auto's reddish-orange color, that bright reddish-orange of Autobacs, or (I hate to say this, but) the hot pink of Yashio Factory.

I wonder if there will be any other interesting color combinations that look surprisingly good, like Super Gold on an Aston Martin DB9.

How about the abilities to make custom logos or decals or art work. Then what if you could trade some of these with other players. Or maybe you can win or unlock certain paint items. Basically if online teams are formed it would be kind of cool to have your league name or logo etc. on your car.

They arn't available in the best colours EVER, the ones you find in the TVR dealer. I can't remeber for sure but I think there was an Opel that used the changing colours first, then the Tuscan introduced it for TVR and at the time the world since the last car to use it wasn't well known of and not in production by then.

What they could do is let you put decals of tuners on your car. Say you buy some HKS parts you can put HKS decals on your car. Also, racing numbers would be cool. Maybe something that allows you to create decals on PC then load them in through a USB drive. A paint shop would be cool, I hope it would have a way to let you mix your own colours and design your own paint schemes.

What they should bring back is the racing modifications.

why not be able to import images to put on your cars? or better yet, have GT4 export a skin to paint in photoshop how ever you desire and then import it to that specific car (assumingthe PS3 has an internal HD)?



heres an example of what i mean:
in x-plane, you paint aircraft by using a wire-frame template generated by the plane making application.....you start with somthing like this:


then you paint it as desired:


and once finished you have somthing like this:


sound good?

Yes, it does. I actually thought - because of the whole GT4 photo mode and USB support - that this would be an option, but sadly PD seems to fall short on potential a little too much for my liking.

This is not only a good idea, but it seems to be 'common-sense' ... it would be a stunning idea and make the whole 'skinning' issue a very straight forward one.

Forza - which so many people praise for it's painting ability - actually sucks quite badly in this department, because the tools they give you to paint your car are crude, slow and cumbersome; effective, yes, but waaaaaaaaaaay too time consuming. They seemed to miss the possibility of IMPORTING paint schemes (unless I'm missing something here, and to me it's such an obvious and useful feature, that I still look for it everytime I open up the paintshop).

In short, yes, it would be an AWESOME addition.

 

[JohnBM01]

I still think like this- your car, mess it up any way you want. It's the same thing tuner car types want to do. Whether it is a Ford Mustang, a Nissan R34 Skyline, an Opel Tigra, or hell... an Aston Martin Lagonda- your car, your way. Paint up your own personal insignia. Paint your country's/state's/province's flag on it. Paint up your New Zealand All-Blacks logo on it. Your car, your way.

I don't know how you have a Paint Shop option in the next GT. I know I played "Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3," and even sometimes, I feel a bit limited in what I can actually do. I don't think I feel too comfortable working with an in-game paint shop because I have PhotoShop 5, and that's what I mainly use to come up with the best possible paint shop results for cars I paint up. So, if there was way to converge PC and console to make some unique paint schemes, it would be very interesting. There would also have to be some way for people with outdated and/or older computers (like my computer) to still be able to paint their own cars, save it on some USB Flash Drive, stick it into the PS3 (granted we have all these things on the next console for the next GT), import the data, and enjoy our own user-created magic.

If the next GT was innovative in car colors, it would feature a sort of registry of all the colors of all the cars' colors. So every car color names from numbers to A to Z would be available so if you want to, you can take a certain color to put on your car, then you can. This only applies to production cars, by the way. Production cars with production colors, not racing schemes. You wouldn't want a Holden Racing Team paintscheme on a Honda Beat, would you? Thought so.

My ideas. What are yours?

 

[DeadlyFred]

Even a basic re-painting option would be great. I get so sick of being stuck with ugly-colored used cars because that's all that ever popped onto the lot. I wouldn't even mind if they charged realistic prices for it as long as you could do it.

 

[Kolyana]

I should be able to paint all my cars purple with sparkly bits and a big fluffy bunny on the hood, if I want to.

 

[DeadlyFred]

Hah... if they're gona allow all that then I better get my napalm missles and bumper spikes.

 

[STiGoFLyBy]

What they should bring back is the racing modifications.

Agreed. I did that to just about every car. Did it really do anything besides change downforce?

I thought the black beauties were carbon fiber, not paint.

 

[Studentdriver]

The racing modifications also served as doing all three weight reduction stages.

 

[JohnBM01]

Here's my deal. Do you think painting your car should available all the time like in "Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3," or would you have to have Level 3 Weight Reduction first? What method would you prefer?

 

[mvandepas]

I think GT5 should have a bl**dy dictionary to learn people how to spell properly when writing in forums.

 

[STiGoFLyBy]

Here's my deal. Do you think painting your car should available all the time like in "Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3," or would you have to have Level 3 Weight Reduction first? What method would you prefer?

Nah, there is really no point to wait? But I think the final stage of the coloring process should be black for carbon fiber and it should make the car lighter.

mvandepas: What are you talking about?

 

[JohnBM01]

A funny thing is that you can get the color for carbonizing your car. In the game, if you paint the car color with an RGB of 32/32/32, you get that dry carbon for your car in TXR3. But, there's carbon fiber, then the real carbon fiber. My response to my own question would be that I don't want to wait. Much like there are mothers-to-be, I have a race car to-be. If I want to paint it in a certain color or like team colors, I want to be able to reflect that with my car. If you can imagine the colors of your "race team," you can paint it up that way. Either that, or if you're into the tuner scene, you can paint your car like the tuners you admire. Like I said: your car, your way. I don't know if if this would apply to something like a Caterham or anything. But still, don't you want your favorite color combination to come along? If PD were creative, they'd come up with a colorizing system that grants you a chance to mix and match colors so you can come up with chameleon paint, pearlescents, or your own color-shifting paint, you can.

If the next GT will really make you pay for getting fancy paint, you may have to pay up more credits for rare and unique colors. So it would be more like a "use at your own risk" deal, especially if the next GT wants to make you pay for all your monkeyshines in racing.

I would say that if paint shop was included that it would be perhaps the next big surprise hit, just like taking the photo's is. I would even go on a limb and say that if a they included methods to add custom paint schemes that it would definetly influence peoples color choices for their real life rides, who knows it could even influence the color choices available for new car models.
It would also be nice if you could somehow sort the wheels, wire wheels in this room of the wheel shop, solid color wheels in another room etc. I also think that an online used car shop would be amazing. Sell your car and have an option for it to go to online used car lot. Maybe there could be severall online used lots and depending on what cars they have on the lot and other factors would determine how much they pay you for your car or how much they give you as trade in. The users used cars keep all parts and maybe current settings. Anyway it is fun to dream.

In my thread asking about what if "My Home" could be upgraded, I explored the possiblilties of making your own race cars, making them with fiberglass, aluminum, or for real race cars and devoted tuners- carbon fiber. I think that as you can build up the cars, you can of course come up with your own paintschemes.

In addition to the upgraded "My Home," I was thinking about taking some of your production cars and come up with a special paint scheme followed by your team. I'll even go one step further in stating that you can have up to four different schemes. If you have any "team colors" that define your car from others, you can make your own paint scheme. Then when done with that, maybe come up with some others. This idea was inspired by Ridge Racer V's ability to let you choose between three different paintschemes, but I went one step further. You can maybe choose a different paintscheme for a certain race. For example, I like blue and red (not together, though). Let's say my default colors were more like Subaru's colors- blue with yellow accents. If I wanted to, I could paint up all my cars in the traditional Subaru colors. But instead of the blue and Subaru livery, I'd save the yellow for accents like car stripes. If I wanted to run some other colors, I'd change the paintscheme to something like deep red and either yellow or white accents. My third option would be something like the classic Castrol colors of white with red and green accents. The fourth would be a British Racing Green-type color.

See what I mean? It would be interesting to do this with your race cars. An alternative option from my upgradeable "My Home" option would be to build several other race cars and paint them up different from one another.
