If your entry scores points I should get at least half of them :lol:

Sry, but I don't get the joke. I didn't even ask for your help, but messaged you if you wanted to enter your Falken Supra livery in this round. After you offered to provide me with your decal set I only asked for identification help of 2 decals, yet you went ahead and sent me your decal set anyway. Awesome gesture, but really not what I needed, as I usually source or create the decals myself. And honestly, this wasn't even my set challenge for this livery at all, but rather the effects on top of the livery. I used the ones I couldn't identify and gave you credit for it, so yeah, I really don't get what you intended with your post.

It was really just meant as a joke :D
I know how much time I spent trying to identify a few of the stickers and making the number board :scared:
It was also just easier for me to send you all stuff I got, especially some the photos were a major pita to find and since I don't see this whole thing as a competition in the first place but rather just a motivation for the community to make cool liveries I felt it was only fair to share everything I had regarding the car.
:cheers:

Thanks for changing the bonus pics 👍

I used the number board, Nagatanien, Toyota Motor Sports and Top Line. Although I was already hours into my research and had most of the source material and downloadable vectors, this did save me a considerable amount of time and headache, giving me more time to concentrate on the abandoned race car theme. Thank you for sharing and excuse my reaction to your post – it just felt like the actual theme and work I put in went totally unnoticed.
 
huff
but I put it on the BMW vgt

:ouch: darn it! i have a awesome N24 livery design.... shame it doesn't fit the rules as its a mix of a Black Falcon AMG GT3 and a classic Sauber C9 design...

You have to make one post with ONLY the set allowed number of pictures and the FINAL ENTRY mark. If you want to add precisions/background story/links, you are allowed to double-post under your entry. The best way to do it will be to "reply" to your own post.

It is recommended you host your image either here on GTPlanet (via the Media section), or on Flickr

Wow, OK cheers for the help I will fix when I get home - sorry about that everyone's a noob at some point. lol

It's not so obvious if you're browsing on a phone, but generally, the presentation of the entry wants to look he same as all the others. Uniformity makes the poll's easier to put together, as well as keeping the livery the focus, rather than the photomode skills.

Good livery though 👍, welcome to the LEC!
 
This is my Nurburgring 24H 2021 Team Lands Entry, my first entry to competitions on here.

Using dozens of reference photos to get the geometry right on the decals, it's been a labour of love but I've enjopyed recreating even the small detail decals such as the Ingolstadt FC Back to the Future Promo sticker in the side air scoops. I've gone for accuracy with very little compromised. Some vector logos directly from Audi Sport (Cheers Audi lol) and Remus Exhausts. Note the square cut decals behind the side windows are original and not my sloppiness lol

I've learnt alot about the limitations and layer/angle nuences of the livery builder but worked around them using perseverance and swearing at the TV.

Plus, I wish wish wish Poly would add the ability top mix gloss/matt decals and allow metalics or even special colours to liveries - that would open up some serious possibilities!

Thanks for looking, reference photos can be supplied.

It would make life so, so much easier <laughs in Matazo Kayama art car>... but I don't think you'll see that ever in GT7, certainly not whilst it's cross-gen anyway.

I'm quoting myself here because I've pondered this issue a lot in the past...

Having different reflectivity levels, and I suppose 'chrome' decals, is likely a resource issue for the game. It seems likely that the decals are projected on a 'shell' over the car, effectively a second transparent mesh, and the setting just changes the rendering effect for that shell. Since a decal doesn't affect the mesh, they'd probably need to have a different shell for each type of rendering you want. Effectively having 4 different finishes on the car could mean having 5 lots of meshes... that might be too much. I also think it could have something to do with why cars loose their original stripes or finishes etc. when they're painted, and possibly why the Carbon options are limited.

I’m having an awesome season, both drivers unexpectedly high in the points! :cool:

Ha!

Don't worry the next set of stats has been far more expertly compiled* than my meagre first attempt. I think 'The GT7 Livery Editor Competition Leaderboard' should be up soon!

* by someone else much better at it than me!

Can it be a "Top 50" so I might see my placing? 😉🤣

Rank the non-scoring by vote numbers? 🤷‍♂️

Hmm might be something to look into. They could also be ranked by average votes or position, thought that usually gives an advantage to entrants who only entered one or two LECs. Number of votes overall gives an advantage to people who enter a lot of LECs. Maybe highest position could be something to use to distinguish positions further, and if they're equal it goes by numbers of highest finishing position. :scared:
Something to play around with suppose, if I'm bored :lol:

Yeah, that all makes sense. Either way works, but definitely total votes acquired makes more of a reflection of participation result than skewed by fewer entries, as you say.

Depends how much free time you have I guess!

Well you gave me motivation to dive into it :lol:

But now we gotta see how to get more people to enter this one, 2/3 are over and we're at a measly 20 entries so far. Where are all the classic ring liveries? The Manta, Live-Strip BMWs (:lol:), the Vipers, Grello, bazillions of M3 E30s or whatever else tried to do survive the race twice around the clock? :D
:gtpflag:
