If GT5 does incorporate a livery editor...

[JBanton]

Talking about BTCC here's some I made earlier, cant remember which game though sorry.

Want a 2012 livery but cant be arsed waiting for DLC? here have Matt Neal's one.

Fancy a more retro style? how about Steve Sopers classic BMW E30

Clio cup?

WTCC?

Classic rally?

Modern rally?

Or just plain "I want to put JPS back on a Lotus because I can" sort of vibe.

Yep, I think it's safe to say I would like that option in GT.

Now I hate Xbox 360 and FM4 that little bit more

I made a Evolution design on my RX-8 R3 in FM4. Looks perfectly hot.

 

[Spagetti69]

Now I hate Xbox 360 and FM4 that little bit more

Believe it or not I never posted to entice jealousy.
I posted to show naysayers more than anything. The guy's who say there will be phallic symbols and who stomach's are too weak to see a purple Porsche.

I honestly think a livery editor will make an entrance at some point and that GTPlanet will have a whole new sub forum dedicated to it and the naysayers will drift into obscurity.

 

[salikriaz]

Wouldn't they have to overhaul the entire paintchip system AND GT AUTO?

 

[Tornado]

The only overhauling that can be done with either is getting rid of them entirely. It isn't worth it to do little fixes on what is basically a dead whale of a system.

 

[salikriaz]

Yeah that's what I meant. I don't know what they must've been thinking when they put paintchips in.. I honestly think if we ever get a livery editor it'l be one of the last updates they do. After they're done fixing everything else. And that's a big if.

Great examples Scaff!

Damn you guys, these screenshots are teasing us. Livery editor it's the number 1 feature for a next GT game imho. It must have it, it's essential these days.

Thanks.

As with Spagetti69 posting this is certainly not to wind anyone up, but simply to illustrate how useful and (and in my opinion) important a tool it is, particularly with the rise of on-line racing in GT.

While I do agree with those that believe its low on PD's list of priorities, its certainly an option I would like to see in a future GT (I don't personally see it coming to GT5 but would be quite happy to be wrong about that one.).

I would love gt5 that much more if it had a liveryeditor. thats the only reason i ever strayed to forza1 in the first place.

 

[HKS racer]

But I'm absolutely positive there are people who haven't liked mine much either (typically, a GT-influenced one, ironically).

Instead I thinks it's great stuff. For the next rFactor skin I'll watch your thread for inspiration. Your cars looks clean and very easy on the eyes. Thanks.

Oh and found spag69 thread too. You are a good painter! Quality replicas.

 

[mjm23race]

While we are at it, it would be nice to be able to do custom helmets too!! I hate having to use the same helmets as everyone else.

 

[Spagetti69]

Thanks HKS.
I wouldn't balk at the helmet suggestion either.
That would be a natural evolution seeing as clothing is already in place.
I'd certainly make up a Senna helmet in honour of the great man.

 

[Griffith500]

Yeah, superb examples! Hopefully they've sparked some imagination in the detractors.

Anyway, it's all academic, as we know Kaz wanted to include a livery editor in GT5. Spag's right: GTP will have its livery section one day.

 

[Slash]

This is what I want. Not overdoing it.

 

[MSTER232]

I would make this. I made in the days of FM3:

(I removed your images from the quote just to not put it again and again)

Those are good examples for include livery editor in GT series.

I downloaded a mod called DRM REVIVAL 2.0 for rFactor yesterday, and it has not only amazing cars but the liveries are just great.

Examples:

BMW 320 TURBO:

BMW M1:

FORD CAPRI TURBO:

LANCIA BETA TURBO:

PORSCHE 935 TURBO:

TOYOTA CELICA TURBO:

Well sorry for long post but i put some of the liveries not all. GT needs liveries for championships with same cars and make teams. It is not enough having only some colours and cars with only one livery.
Best liveries are based in real ones.

In WMD forums from pCARS they made a contest for liveries and you can find amazing ones. (i can´t copy those liveries yet to show you guys)

 

[CorvetteConquer]

Kaz is definitely a purist of sorts.

It took 5 console games for Kaz to allow to paint our cars. And to paint our rims. Think about that.

GT5 showed no signs of a livery editor but I do hope GT6 delivers.

 

[1241Penguin]

Arguably, that could be because GT5 begun development in 2004-2005, when they were still in a time when paint editors and livery editors weren't too big.

Eh, GT5 was released in 2010. PD is a pretty competent company. In 5 years, PD could have found time to create a livery editor if they were instructed to. Simple as that, really. And if you're a student of Kaz and GT games, you'll notice that customization is very limited. And it always has been.

GT4 kept it basic: We can change rims, but cannot paint cars. We can add a wing, and that's it.

GT5: From the lack of livery editor to the brevity of aerodynamic options; it's clear that Kaz isn't yet ready for "his" cars to be tattooed or he wants to develop some super editor. I vote for the former.

The positive news is that he is adding custom cars from SEMA, which embrace individuality and uniqueness. When will this migrate to GT games? Time will tell!

Let's hope that PD starts to realize what it means for a car to be unique and personal!

 

[Spagetti69]

Great examples Foxiol.

 

[King1982]

I would love too be able to do something like this is GT5 with that skyline policecar.

Transformers Barricade Livery


Edit: "To punish and enslave." lols

 

[HKS racer]

Ahhh DRM revival, what an Epic Win Mod. Next rF lite installation is for that no doubt.

This is what I'm rollin now FIA GT3 2010 mod, with Ferrari addon.

Amazing. Yes we can put here tons of examples.
I´m going to show now some liveries from the mod BMW M3 GT2 from GTR2, to me the best liveries:

Those are great and imagine those on different cars!

 

[Spagetti69]

Are they custom made or created by the developers?

 

[che69velle]

This was my favorite car in GT2 and GT3

I would do some 2 tone paint styles and some wild graphics for certain cars

Is this a Mike Lavallee paint job? That man is pure talent. And two-tone paint jobs done right look sweet. Wait, that's a universal truth for any type of paint job.

yes that was, it was an h&r springs prize car i belive too

 

[JBanton]

Yeah, that RX-8 looks nice, it's a bit weird they put a Dodge in front of it though

 

[Foxiol]

Those are custom made. From the BMW.E92.GT2.Challenge.2010.v1.0.GTR2 mod
You can download it in this page: http://www.pilsbierbude.de/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/lang,en/

Just log in and change the language to English because it is a German site. Best mods for GTR2 are all there. And they make conversions from others too.
Good site.
For rFactor mods you have the brother site. You can find it there too.(but still rFactorcentral is the best)👍

 

[JBanton]

This seems to be standard issue with me thesedays, but even that small heart on the rear quarter panel alone makes me feel a lot more proud of the car I drive.

 

[gorsad]

I'd make all types of race liveries, especially the Marc VDS livery.
