The " I want a livery editor" thread.

[maxpontiac]

True, and your right Samus. Even though GT6 will be an upgraded GT5, it really shouldn't a bad thing, right? I'll take it. 👍

If GT was an annual release, yes, I say it would be a bad thing. I have a feeling we will be in for quite the treat with GT6. (Think GT4)

 

[YukinoSuzuka]

I don't need a full livery editor, besides I won't spent my time with racing anymore and editing 24/7

It's just the ability to customize presets of liveries, like we could in RaceDriver's Grid 1.
In the 'wishlist' thread I wished for this Porsche 'Kremer Racing' 911 !

Wouldn't be nice enough to get the chance to swap the colours and redesign this livery with unlimited possibilities ? In fact, I like this idea more than a full livery editor, so scared about the day I see racing d.cks and c..ts in MP

 

[YayoiGT2]

...so scared about the day I see racing d.cks and c..ts in MP

In all the days of derping through the Auction House and racing morons on public lobbies in Forza 4, the worst I found were simply poorly executed sticker-bombs.

Given that most of us GT-folk are a lot more wholesome than the Forza boys, are you going as low as to say GT's community isn't mature enough to utilize a fully-featured livery editor like the ones found in ModNation Racers or Forza Motorsport?

 

[YukinoSuzuka]

No, it's not that bad with us as GT-folk. But the morons in Open Lobby banging all the time *where they've asked for clean racing yes* are the same peeps (I think) they think are funny and design their liveries with one hand, while the other hand is....

Glad you make it less horrible for me this 'fear' isn't necessary by the liveries they made in FM. So probably it would be okay in GT6 too... right ?

 

[ZohsixGT5]

it's an easy mistake to make seeing as GT6 is essentially a re-branded GT5.

Oh so you have played the final version GT6?

 

[RACECAR]

How exactly do you go about making a sweeping generalization like this:

Given that most of us GT-folk are a lot more wholesome than the Forza boys

And then say this:

are you going as low as to say GT's community isn't mature enough to utilize a fully-featured livery editor like the ones found in ModNation Racers or Forza Motorsport?

I'm sorry, but I find that complete BS. There's idiots everywhere, there is no one game where all of them are.

The same complaint I seem to see from a lot of people, which is again irrational due to the fact that there's options to filter things like that out, along with Communities that again are usually self-policing about this.

 

[maxpontiac]

Of course he hasn't. No one knows what the final product is going to look, feel, and sound like.

 

[TokoTurismo]

Oh indeed it would be a very bad thing. I'm glad GT doesn't do that at all.

GT6 being similar to GT4 by contant, its going to be a tasty treat.

 

[HKS racer]

Come on folks. Are you really scared to see some d***s in MP? Are you kidding me? What happen when the gym is over and you need a shower? Don't tell me you go home dirty just because you are... scared? That's ridiculous.

I give you some breaking news:
- being that paranoid is homophobic.
- played rFactor a lot never seen a d***
- Forza has an auction system to prevent this s***
- the chances you'll see one are very low.
- and even if you see one if you are not gay there will be no problems.

So can we stop using this silly excuse as an argument against the livery editor seriously?

What about children or parents in the room while you are playing, and a penis-mobile rolls by? It has nothing to do with being homophobic.

 

[Feldynn]

Let me preface this by saying I'm not against having a livery editor and this is not an argument against having one in GT6.

If you look at something like Midnight Club LA now there's hardly a whiff of an inappropriate livery anywhere to be seen, but back in it's earlier days there were all kinds of cars with inappropriate liveries out there. Giving people the ability to rate other people's cars only compounded the issue and thus the top 10 cars highest voted cars on the official website were almost always cartoon porn cars of one flavour or another.

Give GT6 a full livery editor and any kind of public space to share and rate liveries and I'd almost guarantee something similar would happen. I simply have that little faith in humanity, especially the modern day "console generation" if you will, that I fully expect some kind of stupidity like that to happen (we all know how it'll start "OMG GT6 has livery editor! Lets make a Bewbsgatti Veyron!!!", or something similar). And when it does, the "few" that create the problem will likely end up ruining the whole thing for the "many" that would use some degree of self control and / or common sense.

As I said above that's not an argument against a livery editor in GT6, merely a statement of experience and belief. Personally speaking I'd love to have some kind of livery editor, be it basic or complex, to help us customize our cars even more. I'd probably just make simple race car liveries myself, not all that much different from what PD did for the RMs and TCs because I'm not an artist nor especially creative.

You might as well be worried about people cussing and saying other inappropriate things online. From my online experience with GT5, not that many people are classy or sophisticated, which is ironic for the type of theme a GT game sets for itself.

Explain me why it didn't happen'd with Forza.

Explain me how Turn 10 are those unresponsable fools to give freedom to the people, and how many of these children and parents have been effected in Forza Motorsport series.

The truth is the most ugly thing we can see is some manga or eventually a bob marley car. I'm all for fictional liveries but somehow similar to real life stuff and I won't care about manga, spiderman, Bob Marley, Disney Cars, that's what I saw when I play'd Midnight Club.

^ Oh and tell me more about this.
Can it be considered as "car porno" ?

 

[Feldynn]

As I said, it was just a statement of experience.. perhaps I should have said "my personal experience" to further clarify, that's what "I" experienced with MC:LA

Since I've not experienced any incarnation of Forza I couldn't possibly make a comment as to what did or did not happen there hence why I only brought up MC:LA and made no mention of Forza or any other games whatsoever.

 

[BoneSawTX]

I've been more offended by the car color and rim color combinations I've seen in GT5 than the livery's I've seen in Forza 4.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Parents can prevent communication on achild's account when online. Still can play, just can't talk or see or hear others talk. So that's covered.

 

[Tenacious D]

What Dino said. And just to include liveries in this, if you're afraid you might see something that made you want to cry:

Filter Custom Liveries:_

In case you missed it, one more time...

Filter Custom Liveries:_

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I still welcome the livery editor, I'd say that the risk is worth it if I can take one race car and make a few different race cars with it.

TBH, the only time I've seen any porn-related stuff on any of the Forza games was when one of my friends was trying to be funny and sent me an Enzo with penises all over it. Of course, I immediately repainted the car dark green and got rid of the stupid stickers. I put a white stripe on it afterwards.

 

[Johnnypenso]

Given PD's general nature, I just can't see them allowing wide open livery editing, and it's because of the so called "penis car". They just will not allow their creation to be sullied like that. So that means there will be heavy moderation and any PSN ID caught with an inappropriate car will be immediately banned, or you'll be severely limited as to what you can put on a car, probably from a fixed group of artwork. My guess is the latter. Assuming of course you get something resembling a livery editor.

 

[atf]

I don't see why PD would hold off on a livery editor. They could easily make space for it by taking out duplicate cars. Then they could have strict rules over inappropriate liveries. Kaz and PD need to look at fourms like these so they actually know what the fanbase wants.

 

[RACECAR]

I would think that's where a filter option would come handy, or only racing your friends instead of the Open Lobby (which usually is unpredictable).

With a sort of livery editor like we had in GRID 1 it's impossible to create any sexual content whatsoever, not that happen often even with a 100% freedom editor as Forza proves, but I can be ok with the idea of a policed livery editor, as long as there's one. 15 years in a row living in the excuse of a "no livery editor because OMG penis car" it's an hypocritical approach. We can still have something to customize our cars like we had in GRID 1 (it was awesome, because of the fast easy to use interface, and sponsors paying you, team management, etc) without anyone scared about sexual related content. If they will not add a livery editor, even a policed one, it means they are either hypocrites or they don't give a damn about their fans.

Are you serious ??

I would much rather take the risk of some fantastic, individual or reproduced liveries against the possible inappropriate one that "might" pop up, only to be blocked by the mods anyway.

There is just too much upside for the livery editor for it not to be included based on a few people that might do the wrong thing. Imagine if we applied that theory to everything we do in life......we wouldn't be able to do anything !

 

[townnet]

Okay, for people who want livery editor and people don't want livery editor, how about add an ON/OFF option to choose shown or not shown? If you set OFF that mean you can't see those peoples car with creative art, or very disgusting design to kill your eye ball and ruin your mood keep playing. This option is good for both side. Everybody agree?

 

[Nurburgthing.]

I'm with people who want a livery editor, and a full one at that.

The odd car with a penis on it only reflects the mentality of the driver. If theres a knob on the car, then theres a knob inside. At least you know you'll kick the right person .

The old BASF livery is one that has stuck in my head since childhood.
All thanks to a Matchbox one of these....

Would love this livery on an E30 M3.

And here it is on a Sauber Ford Le Mans Car....

This is the key, i feel. And it should be for every game that allows customisation. Surely it cannot be that difficult for experienced, professional coders to input the option to turn off user made liveries ? I would LOVE a livery editor, but have no desire to make a penis splattered livery. It doesn't bother me to be honest, i don't get offended at such things. BUT, I know that people DO get offended by that kind of thing and I completely respect that. So to give everyone the option to turn off user-made graphics would, surely, be the best way to go ? Or maybe like in Pro Evolution Soccer, where your edited football kits (etc) only show up on YOUR game, if you are online ? That way, everyone has their own personal option file and it never interferes with anyone else's enjoyment of the game.

I know that kinda defeats the object of showing off your livery to everyone, but, if people made livery packs available for people to download, you could assign a livery to a specific car in your own personal save file. Then, when online, a person chooses that specific car for the race, your own preferred livery shows up on that car maybe ? Over-riding the game's default paint job ?

The result of showing off the livery itself, kinda disappears i know, but people will still appreciate the artworks, when they search for them online and see them on cars in their own game, i guess ?

It's a fine line it seems, because many GT players take the game VERY seriously and i have no doubt it would p**s them off greatly, should anyone be allowed to basically drive around in ( to quote Alan Partridge ) obscene publications, so extra options to help the user decide on how much visual customisation appears in their own personal game save file is really important.

I think this part of the recent interview shown on GTP News is very interesting for our aim:

Besides making the game even more realistic than it’s been in the past, is there anything about the culture of motorsports or racing that’s changed in the last few years that you’re looking to capture in GT6?

KY: “I think this is another thing that we’re not really able to get into details at this time, but one of the major themes of GT6 is that edge effect of how we affect the car industry and other industries around the world, and how they affect us as well.

“When these ecosystems intersect with each other, you get some very interesting results and new things are born from them.

“That’s something that we have focused on in GT6, and is sort of outside the evolution of a normal racing game, but that’s something that kind of opens up new possibilities and brings up a lot of new and interesting things for people to experience and that’s what our focus is on.

What do you think about it?

 

[Cosbuster]

What do you think about it?

I think it has nothing to do with a livery editor.

What about children or parents in the room while you are playing, and a penis-mobile rolls by? It has nothing to do with being homophobic.

What if somebody comes right here on the forum and posts an inappropriate picture? Maybe the forums should be closed down for prevention.

 

[AlvaroF]

That coming from Kaz means absolutly nothing, IMO
