I'll give the 997 a shot tonight and I could try to make a livery if you guys like. I have never made one before but I have been wanting to for a long time.

Would be much appreciated if you did. 👍
 
I'm messing with the skins today with Gimp and I am just experimenting with the editor. I'm not sure what to do for the skin as I'm not a pro with liveries. I was thinking of doing multiple drafts in Forza as its noob friendly then take crap loads of pictures and try recreate them in Gimp for rFactor. Does anyone here use Forza for the livery editor so we could work on designs together?

Also I saw that last race we have some one using the F430 in the team and two of you using the Porsche. I was thinking of having a contrasting livery for the car. Example Ferrari be black with white ascents and the 997 be white with the black.

I dont use Forza.
You need a template to work on with GIMP. These can be downloaded on Enduracers website.
I've been working on a livery for the Porsche. It can probably be slapped on the Ferrari relatively easily.
I haven't been very motivated to get it done though.
Will do a little bit tonight now that you mention it.

Once I finish with it tonight, I'll upload the template that I'm editing, and then you can do a bit? Then you upload what you did, and maybe Jav does a bit? Etc.
I'm considering having a competition for it publicly. Winner will get a year of premo and/or a $15 PSN card. We'll see...
That could be a special edition skin for Abu Dhabi in season b. :D
 
Sounds like a plan. I'll download the template from enduracers tonight. Right now I stop using gimp and I'm practicing with the F430. I'm doing 1:52's on mediums need to working on corner exit as I'm sliding thru most of them.

Since we just did St. Pete, I'd suggest you go to CMS, pick a race that you want to join us for, and download the track for that race.
Practice on that track instead of one that you really don't need to learn too badly.
 
Here's my GTP skin influenced by Gatrs:

I'm practicing at the track the next race is being held at. Are we skipping that race because I'm a little confused at what you meant in that post.

Portimao, or however it's spelled?
Thought you meant St. Pete. :lol:
You can race in whichever races you'd like.

Don't think I'll be able to make it to Sebring on Saturday. Good luck guys.

Yup I'm practicing at portimao(whatever it's called) and the F430 template for the livery is a little confusing anyone have some tips on how to work with it?
 
I'm not entering, need to concentrate on the world series. Having to learn tracks i've never raced on takes time, still haven't got a tire & fuel strategy sorted out for Portimao.
 
I haven't officially signed up yet as I think I need more practice. Still not used to the car. Also been wasting time on the livery and not practicing.

Damn, I still haven't uploaded that yet.
I've been working a bit on it.
I promise I'll upload what I've done by this weekend. :lol:
You use GIMP you said? So you can open .xcf files or something like that?
 
Hey I'm going to mess with the livery tonight when I get back home. I downloaded it last night but didn't have the time to do anything.

Also how was the race yesterday? I feel I'm getting a little closer to race ready so expect me to sign up soon :)

Loving the Barcelona track! When do we start doing some laps guys?

'fraid I'm not going to make this race either. :grumpy:
Baseball is starting to consume my life which makes me even more :grumpy:. Never been a huge fan of baseball. :grumpy:
