Make sure you've saved the skin in I believe it's DXT5 DDS, not DXT1 (which is usually the default in various image editors). Not having the right DDS texture format does really strange stuff to liveries.

Ok, thats probably why it isn't showing up ingame. I'll try that.


Edit: Same result. Still can't see it.

Edit: Turns out in contrast to what I always did when painting on other sims, I actually had to turn on the mipmaps. Anyhow, it works As a result, heres some screens:

Not the high res, glossy shots you guys pull off so well, but its better then those dull stripes

Care to upload the livery (don't care about format, although both DDS and non-DDS would be useful)? I'll have a poke around and see if I can get it to show up correctly (or otherwise) in my '10 Indycar install

Sure. My team folder here.

Of course, I'd like to know how to pull off those camera angles and glossy shots.

The camera angles are obtained with the free look function.

Ah, ninja edit... glad you got it sorted

For glossy/hi-res shots don't use rFactor's screenshot button, it's utter garbage. You're better off running something like Fraps in the background and saving in an uncompressed format (ie PNG). Open the PNGs up in your favourite image editor and *then* save as JPG

So thats all? I don't need to adjust my graphics card or anything?

 

[Sharky.]

Nah, you shouldn't need to - the first five screenshots in Alex's post were edited in an image editor. The bottom one (F1 1985?) is a bog-stock rFactor screen - crank detail to the max and it'll look exactly like that.

So I have another problem: The controllers I'm using (yes, I'm using a controller because I can't afford a wheel and it was the nearest thing I could find) have this annoying tendency to pull to the left. I thought it was just the first one because of old age as it was working good on GTR2 before it started doing that and once I started on rfactor, its been getting worse and worse. As a Result, I'm most of the time fighting to keep the car straight and its really frustrating me to no end not being able to get a good lap because of it. If there is anyone besides me that uses a controller, can you plese help me on this?

By the way, they are both Logitech Wingman (Wing man Action and Wingman Cordless).

Does it happen in every mod? If not, then it's wheel stagger in the car setup

Yes, it happens in every mod. Grand Slam, DTM 2008-2010, GP2 2008, Enduracers, Indycar 2010. Happens in all of them.

Ahhh...I used to go to Montjuic(h?) all the time, I lived in Barcelona in '92, loved it. I will look for that track. Good video btw!

PS; Can't find the track. Where do I d/l it?

 

[waggles]

How do I use that?

Press 'U' on your keyboard.

Just signed up to another series at SROL doing open wheelers. Mods we are using:

73 Lola Formula Ford
FSOne 09
CART Factor
Formula Renault 2.0 FFSCA

The first race is at Pau in the Renault, should be interesting, as it should considering the racing starts about 1am my time!

 

[waggles]

Looks awesome-but it's 8AM for that here

 

[RACECAR]

Recently painted another indycar, will post up later. I'm also gonna start on my first LMP1 car. I initially had in mind GP2, but the template was just...intimidating

 

[Strittan]

My favorite mod is by far CART Factor...

I asked it to you before on AIM and I'll repeat it again here. Is the name Chuck Taylor on the car at the cockpit?

LMP1 Zytek is done, came out much better then I expected. Will be posted up later today as I now begin on the Corvette C6.R

Also, can anyone tell me how to crank up the detail on the pictures?

New Livery, first ever on the Zytek 06S:





This is a carry over from a car I made during my brief stint on Batracer. Chris loves it

And heres a few screens from it taking laps around Road America:

















These are also my first pics with my graphics maxed out. Tell me what you think.
