I doubt I will make too many races but Id like to volunteer on behalf of Mr Forrest to make his skin. They havent got photoshop in WA yet so its pretty hard for him to convert his crayon sketch onto a 3d mesh.

Going by your teribble choice of team names, I am wondering if that logo is "just" a hand or maybe a cut away image of 2 pieces of human anatomy that fit the team name better.  ;D

Lol amazingly its the same colour scheme I had in mind for your car, also did some work for finding a sponsor for you and could get a major deal for you with hello kitty. They werent interested in Achilles heel as we dont fit their demographic but said seeing your already pretty much a shareholder with the amount of stuff you have bought that youd be a great spokesperson for the brand.
Title: Re: Cobra Cup Skins
Post by: Dick Forrest on August 17, 2014, 10:35:42 PM
ok, you wanted Hello Kitty.
Here are a couple of variants for you to chose from Marty.

If anybody else would like one, just ask! Marty cant use them all.

You want me to sacrifice a good paint job for smooth gameplay?? you're dreaming!

I'm not sure how big the files are. 800 odd megs sounds about right.
These cobra skins have less to them than the Tatuus and the E30's though.
Well I didn't find any driver skins, pit crew skins etc..

800 meg skins sound fine, 8gb for 10 cars shouldnt be an issue for any gfx cards not to mention the other textures and models for tracks and cars.  ;)

I've forgotten how big the skin files are really. some people leave .PSD files in them which can be as big as 2 gig. but AC won't be looking for .PSD files so I can't see how they would interfere.

I think the AC forum post is a bit of a red herring. I'm sure all the textures etc are loaded once when you load up the track and thats it?
Title: Re: Cobra Cup Skins
Post by: Wally on August 18, 2014, 03:50:43 PM
The AC post is only talking about the DDS files. The issue is loading them into the video card's VRAM, wasting space if the textures are way too big.

thanks Wally!

the skin issue is easy to solve in the end, if you can resiize .DDS files make them 2048x2048

I just did that with one of the cobra CramDick skins. You cant really notice any loss in quality. maybe a few bits up close..
(http://i1136.photobucket.com/albums/n497/mogwai101/Showroom_shelby_cobra_sc_18-8-2014-18-39-43.jpg)
The file went from 92.8mb to 27.5mb so i'll bee doing that from now on.


i'll update these skins tomorrow arov.

Lol this is going to be the gayest league series in history, no offence to you and your kind Dick but the best thing about me driving that skin would be that I dont have to look at it on somebody else.

If you mean gayest as in happy, then I hope you're right. It could show that XGN is a very gay place to be. such joy.
No offense to me at all. i'm not gay....
 my boyfriend is though.

Really, I just was trying to help you fit in Marty.

At the end of the day it's going to look strange on you-tube. and making people go 'WTF?' is what life is about.

They do start to add to file size. I'm not sure how the default works. as a lot of skins don't have wheel or driver skins in their files.
I've resized the driver and wheel skins down to 800x800. File is just under 30MB

Here is your's again Flattop. It did need the red rims.

Lol this is going to be the gayest league series in history, no offence to you and your kind Dick but the best thing about me driving that skin would be that I dont have to look at it on somebody else. You dont see much of the skin your in just everyone else will need to deal with the visual pain your creating.  ;D

If you mean gayest as in happy, then I hope you're right. It could show that XGN is a very gay place to be. such joy.
No offense to me at all. i'm not gay....
 my boyfriend is though.

Really, I just was trying to help you fit in Marty.

At the end of the day it's going to look strange on you-tube. and making people go 'WTF?' is what life is about.

I think you have a talent Dick but I also think you are a little asian girl trapped in a bikers body going by your taste in designs. I must say if I drive that car the odds of anyone near me not crashing from uncontrollable laughter would have to be pretty slim.

Also one last question, is it mushroom season in the west atm?  ;D

Gold caps are everywhere. Did you want some sent over?

I had a search for Hello Kitty skins and i'm not quite a pioneer. There are one or two out there already. None for the cobra's though. I might put them up on the AC forum once the season is over. I bet they get D/L a fair bit.
I imagine there would be humorless people out there that would not see the fun or funny side of these skins. Their loss really.

Personally, even though the traditional skins look awesome and certainly make them look like race cars. For me that's where I feel kinda pretentious by trying to emulate a popular race car and sponsors. I'm probably in the wrong mind set and should see it as being a fan.
  I like to make fake sponsors even if I steal real sponsors logo. But in the Tatuus case, I've got a few sex industry sponsors.  :o

I often wonder what the legal ramifications are in sims for sponsors? If some total asshat CEO decided to sue a racer for putting company logos on a sim car?  don't make me google...

Title: Re: Cobra Cup Skins
Post by: marty on August 21, 2014, 09:27:23 AM
Regarding sponsors and claims of copyrights I find it quite funny and hypocritical if some company was to complain. After all they pay the big bucks to have their logo's seen by as many peopls as possible. Its the sponsors that pay for the exposure and pay more if there is more exposue.

I also find it easy to copy a real skin as it doesnt take any imagination plus we dont have mushrooms to go all phsycedalic on like you westerners.  ;)

One thing for sure a grid skinned by Dick forrest will provide lots of laughs. I had plans of making a silly funny skin for season 1 but I couldnt get it to work as I hoped so abandoned it and went the more traditional style even if it was fictional.

Not there is anything wrong with 'real skins' Most of them are freaking awesome and I would use them if I got bored of making my own. Those chrome Tatuus skins are awesome. And every new skin I see on the mclaren mp12 I love. It's just got a shape that looks good in anything....... bit like my imaginary mistress(es).

I have tried to make his ponies stand out more to prevent rage quit.
I hope he approves. We can then just update the one .DDS file into the 'Marty' folder.

Thanks Bird! I actually do a lot of photography and graphic art in RL so doing these skins are quite fun and relaxing.

The Cobra door panels are a bitch to skin though. So you'll notice a lot of cobra skins with nothing on the doors because of this (notice most of the numbered skins the number is in front of the door) So getting a full sized Lorikeet onto the sides and in the correct place just won't happen easily. Much as I'd like one there too.
I can make the ones on the sides stand out more. Squeezing a whole bird in there just doesn't look right. There are a couple full size ones at the back though. I can make them bigger and brighter.

Here is Guybrush's skin updated.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/6cozsi0nn2sxnqf/Guybrush.zip?dl=0

with all the extras these files get huge. Over 160MB.
So i've done some massive re-sizing to get it down below 38MB. If anyone want's the high-res versions i'll upload them. Nothing wrong with the low res unless you zoom in pretty close.
