Hey, i got an Idea, maybe there could be another section added to the Spreadsheet. One for Racing Team colors, so If one is looking for Petty Blue maybe, or the Gulf colors and the Falken colors i posted earlier, it can bei found in that Section. I think it woulb be a Lot easier for people that want to so Race Car Replicas

As i Said, Just an Idea

Or you can just use the search function on the spreadsheet.
 
Hey guys! Another request if I may (Idk if anyone saw my last one but that’s ok)

I wanna make Hammond’s Daytona from Top Gear when he raced May in the boat. It’s Blu Ribot and I haven’t seen it listed yet. Thanks :)
 
Hey guys, was wondering if anyone could help me with this color, it's called seductive red. I've tried with metal flake but all I could get it to look like candy red. Any advice would help alot!

Cheers, mate! I'll add these to my list. I should have these ready tomorrow along with some other colours. I've been a bit on and off with this recently, but I don't want to be M.I.A. and completely stop contributing.

I had a go at Ford Jewel Violet. I have it on my storefront, gamertag is 'RosemaryRace' and the wheels are unpainted.

Paint code I did was
Metalflake
H: 0.94 R / 0.96 L / 0.29 R
L: 0.89 L / 0.72 R / 0.51 L

I finally went to recreate the Shelby GT350 Hertz in Raven Black with Gold stripes. The side ended up a bit awkward because of the GT badge and lower trim that gets a bit in the way of the side stripes (edit: because of this, I also did the coupe, and I think it looked better there. Instead of having the GT350 H logo, I just left the MUSTANG badge instead, it fit better, though the badge is a bit hard to see on top a dark color, and panel gaps are a bit golden because of the masking effect for the metallic stripes)

But while looking for good reference pictures to create the side GT350 H logo, I found a website that claims it is painted with "Gold Le Mans" stripes.

I asked you guys before and someone said it was Bronze Powder, which is what I used.

I thought the side stripes looked a bit hard to notice in-game, so if it was a different color, that could help, if it was lighter.

Not sure if this is necessarily designed for FH5, but some of the colors seem just a tad off, specifically the yellows. Likely a Forza issue but was just curious if there are any actual adjustments to how FH5 did colors as opposed to FH4? Greatly appreciate the work regardless!

For my GT350H I used "Inca Gold Metallic" under Jeep. Some websites say Inca Gold was used and I think the Jeep Inca Gold matches the Ford Inca Gold.

Strangely enough, this is not a Forza issue, but rather colors tend to vary in appearance based on the latitude of said location.

Whaddya know, I learned something today.

Edit: Should I give another color a go? I'm not sure what the response was :\

Okay, here goes:

I know someone who works for the paint booth at a Ford dealer. He had a look at Ford's Mystic Chrome so he gave me a pointer on how to adjust it for Forza Horizon 5.

I did Mystic Chrome a long time ago and there’s nothing wrong with the version I have on the chart. If you have an issue with it, you can use your version. In fact, my version on the chart I’ve used on cars in both Forza Horizon 4/5 and both have a lot of downloads and likes. If you’re trying to steal our thunder, I’d suggest not doing it. We’ve sunk countless hours into the chart and put a lot of effort into it as well.

I feel bad for being away so long. Sorry about that, school has just started up again and I haven't really had time to contribute anything.

I do have a question - how long does it take for paints to go from this thread to the spreadsheet?

I was not intending to. So I'll just shut my mouth to prevent any more problems :\
 
Hello kind paint wizards,

I'd like to request Forza values for the blue and orange colors from the new McLaren MCL36 F1 car. The orange is an updated matte shade of McLaren's Papaya they refer to as "Fluro Papaya" in this tweet, the blue is an as of yet unnamed color.

Here are a few pictures of the car in question, both studio shots and IRL shots from the launch event yesterday as well as a tweet containing some video footage of the car.




Thank you to anyone who is able to help!

Thanks.

And another thing. Is this blue from GTI Club based on a real Mini Cooper color?

IMG_20220213_134524_059.jpg

GTI Club on the PSP and Wii doesn't have metallic paint, so I don't know if it is supposed to be metallic or not. What's the closest Mini Cooper color to this? Preferably a solid color, to replicate this Mini I made.
