GT5 Used Car Database [in progress]

[ajns73]

@ajns : I've been intending to download libreoffice for a while now - this sounds like a good excuse to do so Will have a play today or the next few days and see what happens. Who knows!
....

Honestly, I don't know why I am so intrigued with the possibility of never using Excel again. Maybe because i will always be an Apple guy no matter what my budget drives me to do.

By the way, LO has not choked on any of the VBA I fed it yet, but I haven't really pushed it. Your mileage may vary. If you come across something it can't do, let me know.

 

[TornadoAlley]

The sheets should be completely updated (including your correction segovia). Let me know if you find any errors.

 

[AspecBob]

Did you notice? After waiting so long for the last car to appear in ML#1 (the GT-R Concept LM Race Car), a second one appears only a few days after...

Instead of a picture of the car, they should have just put a big middle finger there.

 

[Duck]

Best middle fingers are when you are badly waiting for a specific car version and then find it for two consecutive days...... same car.. same colour... similar mileage

 

[robisme]

No, but robisme might have some very soon, I guess. Not sure what to do now, since we're at the same point. The gap is now about 600 days long. Maybe I'll advance my save 300 days and work on the second half of the gap. I'll post pictures then if I do that.

I'll try get all my pics uploaded to googledocs today sometime and post the link.
I keep taking a pic of how many days my game is at, so you know from from that, where I am in the game. (just an idea), I do like 20 days then take a pic of where I am day wise, So you know. 👍

I have days 1766-1817 & 1818-1851 uploaded to google docs, two files..... https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4t9ZN1PmM31ZTI4MzFkNGQtMWI4MS00MDgxLTg1M2MtNDEwYzIwNjk2NDIy

Second file is upto day 1851 not 1840 actually. my mistake. all days there still

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4t9ZN1PmM31ZTk4NzA0ZTQtOTQ4OS00YTU0LTk0MjAtZmM1ZWZmMjU4MjY1

Nothing missing day-wise,might be 1 or 2 pics for 1 day only, if you notice the numbers with a couple missing, it's because I took a couple of other pics of things at home lol, left them out

You want more days from 1840 ? Edit, actually 1840 is wrong, because It should read 1851 on checking.

btw I did not reduce the size of any of these. Hope you enjoy looking through this lot lol

That, or showing the car you're desperately looking for after you wasted all your hard earned cash on common cars ... happened to me for both Chaparals ... needless to say, the odds of me making 10ish Millions in 5 races were pretty slim back then ...

First 2 pics are identical, 68 & 69. Looks like these fit in at 1791 +3 (Starting at position 10744). Anyone working these yet?

I think the bottom right of pic# 71 (the Audi S3 - '02) is where the gap starts (position 10744).

I don't think anyone is working on them yet.

I have the same match-up. I'm done through pic80 right now.

robisme, thank you for submitting these pictures for transcription. I noticed that in pic80 you have a 6 car overlap from pic79. My concern is that there may have been underlap on some of the other pictures. Since you're one of the few in that gap, please be careful when advancing your UCD. Overlap is fine. Underlap will kill us.

segovia, if you haven't gone past this point, can you do a quick double check on days 1791-1808. You'll find those days attached. Thanks.

TornadoAlley, I just checked Duck's rarity thread. It looks like all cars have now been seen on ML#1. Does that match with what you know, or do we still have a list of "not seens" for ML#1?

EDIT: Looks like there still is 1 missing: Nissan GT-R Concept LM Race Car.

I've only been moving 2 days at a time, either by the licence test (2 tests) or doing a couple of races, from the seasonal events, like 2 laps of the Ring, then repeat and then take the pics from the UCD that will have moved on 2 days. Also remember, I said a couple of pics are 1 day only you can tell, by the "New" showing at the side in red. Yes ?

1 pic is a bit difficult to read I noticed in the first batch, camera shake I think, I covered the flash with black tale too, to stop bad reflections.
You need more days from 1851 ???

 

[CLIBBY34]

Looks like there still is 1 missing: Nissan GT-R Concept LM Race Car.

A leetle bit of short-term memory loss?
You commented only yesterday when segovia posted about it appearing twice in a short period of time after such a long absence

I'm unfortunately unlikely to get much, if any, of these pics transcribed
Will post if I do get onto it though

 

[robisme]

Just read my notes I've got written to go with the pics
Says day 1766 1st pic and 2nd pic
1767/8 3rd pic, hope that is of help.

1784 - 1785 pic 13 mistake, moved 3 days and below that I wrote, Honda Fit W '01 and Toyota Altezza Gita AS300 '01 which where probs from the 3rd day.

I move 2 days and take a pic always. The days should work out correct if you look at those (Day position) pics I also posted from time to time.

Doh! I didn't actually look at which car he was talking about. That will teach me.

Pictures are fine for the most part. A couple of manufacturers cut off, but honestly if I don't know 'em by heart by now...

Pic80 may be one of those one day advances then. That was the first one I noticed on. I just went back and checked, and that is the first time it occurred. I just get a little nervous when stuff doesn't match up. Like I said, Overlap is just fine (1 day advance), but underlap is the killer.

 

[robisme]

You guys know this comment ..."ajns73 View Post
Looks like there still is 1 missing: Nissan GT-R Concept LM Race Car."

Well I just checked in my garage to see if I had the car and............................. I do 👍 date acquired = 02/02/12
I started taking pics on the 03/02/12 , for the record I was on day 1745 on 03/02/12 that day
Day 1765 when I started recording cars on camera, remember Clibby said something about a 20day offset on my save, if that means anything.

pic coming asap

is this the one ??

Some of you might like what has just turned-up on day 1858 on my save. below

[robisme]

Hi, Now officially pis'ed off, that Audi R8 Race Car, I'd waited ages for that, so keen to tell you guys what I found, I forgot to buy it before moving days on

Anyway, moved on tonight from day 1851 to 1900, notable cars spotted worth a mention.
day 1863/4 Minolta Toyota 88C-V Race Car '89
day 1865/6 NSX Prototype LM Race Car & Audi R8 LMS Race Car (Team Playstation) '09
1875 Nissan R92CP Race Car '92
1879 Toyota 7 Race Car '70

I'm really unhappy missing that R8 Race Car

days 1851 - 1900 uploaded to google docs https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4t9ZN1PmM31ZTI4MzFkNGQtMWI4MS00MDgxLTg1M2MtNDEwYzIwNjk2NDIy

 

[ajns73]

Anyone who wants to can take a crack at pic96. I can make out the car names but not much else.

robisme, do you have another snap of that screen that isn't quite as bad?

I will finish these up tonight and post my update minus pic96.

 

[CLIBBY34]

Try this aj... is a bit easier.

 

[ajns73]

Sneaky little so and so. Nice. Negative image?

 

[CLIBBY34]

Almost lol. Called 'emboss' in photoshop, is surprisingly useful with blurry pics

 

[ajns73]

OK, guys. Here is the transcript of robisme's photos with some help from Clibby on cleaning up an image. This is ML#1 Day 1791-Day 1840.

 

[robisme]

Hi, of my last batch uploaded to google docs 1852 - 1900, image 0131 Day 1854 is one day only, all the rest 2days each.

You need anymore guys ????

Since Clibby is only acting as art director, you'll have to let me catch up. It's going to take a few days for me on these.

Can you give us a link to that directory or to the file, robisme?

 

[CLIBBY34]

Pfft, art director!!

Okay, okay, if robisme is happy to take some more pics, I'll commit myself to getting back and filling some cars in! Doesn't take that long once I'm set up, I just need to sit down and start it in the first place

Okay, will quickly run through pics 101 to 120, I think () they'll cover ML1 days 1840 - 1874 (days 1817 to 1851 on robs account)... someone double check that though

Edit: Hit a little snag... I think I've convinced myself (right or wrong) there might be a piccy missing in this batch
The list I've created from photos is here, but I think I'm paranoid there's 2 days missing somewhere in the middle. (I'm almost asleep now though, might contribute to that lol)

Getting a bit late to check/investigate tonight, will look again tomorrow evening.
