our family never changes their rims, so should I still post the stock ones? Also, I have four cars in my driveway. Should I post our '84 318i rims? Or my bro's T/A GT rims?

Hey, at least it's a smart. Funny thing is he may have had to use the toilet BADLY!!

Well, I have two dream cars. For my first one, I would get a Nissan Silvia S13 K's AERO 2000 CC and replace the engine in it with a RB24DETT. Then I would put better turbos on it, get a better computer and intercooler, get a 6 speed manual transmission for it, and then paint it white and get gold 5 spoke rims for it.

Or...

I would get a 1996 Nissan 240SX, convert it to a Sileighty, put a RB24DETT in it, upgrade the turbos, upgrade the computer and intercooler, get a 6-speed manual, paint it white, and get 6 spoke deep dish grey rims for my Sileighty.

Quote from Pablo Donoso :

There ya go, all done, saved space and revised the zip, because the first one I whipped up for Grip Driver in like 15 mins so he didn't have to wait for imageshack to re-link the images, plus I didn't want others to go through the same issue with that in the future. =)

For Grip: after masking off the area, don't save as (.jpg), save it as 24-bit bitmap image (.bmp), only save as .jpg after you paste the bitmap skin onto the texture.... lol, sorry, perhaps I should add that tip, because the way I do it, I mask off the area, then copy and paste it onto the texture, without saving until the skin is superimposed onto the texture, then I save as a jpg.

Bitmap doesn't compress the image when saved, so color remains exactly as it is created, but jpeg is an inter-changeable format and when saved, it is compressed and loses color quality. It's not your fault though grip, so no worries, k. =)

oh! I should have figured that out! thanks though! I will save it bitmap next time.

Quote from hazaky :

U need to make all the area with the same color (aka. pink?) and dont save it - it loses quality and then its not the same color. If u save, then maybe PNG wont ruin it because PNG format should be 100% quality (as saved).

I use pink to easily represent the area. Also, thanks for the second tip, too. I noticed that when I did save it, the quality was like :thumbsdow afterward. So go bitmap, and I'll try not saving it one time and just paste it to the carbon fiber. I think I got everything now. I'll try again. Thanks for everything!

hey Pablo. I tried this, and it sort of worked. This is the end result. What did I do wrong?

Quote from SilverArrows77 :

(No offense people)

Just one thing... the pictures won't load for me. Is it my computer or what?

then please go back to that post, click edit, and remove the quote

ok, I did.

Looks like a game that I will need to try out to find out how good it is. Thanks for posting though!

People, sorry for posting that rediculously long quote, it's just someone finally showed me how to use MS Paint right. So, my bad I guess. Still, thanks for the tutorial.

P.S. I am not a moron! I just got excited.

Quote from Pablo Donoso :

Here's how to use MS-Paintbush to add carbon fibre body panels. This is for people that either don't have programs such as Adobe Photoshop, or Corel Draw, or just find it too damn complex, and want to do it in a simple, quick way. Just use the tools as each image describes, it's pretty straight forward.

:clapclap:WOOO! YEAH! Great tutorial!! I am jumping with joy!! Thanks for this tutorial!

Quote from Ricerguy :

same issue here. what do you mean by "it was", is everything alright now? you have an ATI graphics card i'm guessing.

my rbr is being a basterd with vista and not letting me mod the game ( read only BS ), which is why im trying so hard to get this one running.

Actually, I don't think I even have a graphics card. I do have a display driver from what I know of. When I had San Andreas on my computer at one point, the game said I had no graphics card. That is why I had horrible graphics. Also, my LFS gets a lot of lag because of that. I had to turn off the shadow to have better fps. Just one thing... is a Graphics Controller the same?

it downloaded for me just fine, it's just my graphics card wasn't letting me play it.

Insanely awesome interiors! I downloaded all of them! They look great!

Quote from batteryy :

they did.
but still nothing can beat the episode where they tried super-hero myths

did you also know that mythbusters is wrong on some things, too? Also, that episode was funny and cool. Why did I stop watching them?

Oh it's a Ford. (slowly hiding in embarassment)

I would go for the XRT. It looks sporty, it's fast, probably comfortable, and most likely really good on gas. Also, it can be powerful if you want it to be, just not the most powerful. I really would like the XRT.

*What if there was an XFT?*

This one's nice and in development. There's a beta demo out that let's you drive a Lada through one stage. Promising, I must say.

Just remember to turn "spring effects" to some sensible value for Logi wheels.

Well, no offense to you guys, but you are doing a little bit of a flame war. Oh well; back to topic, this game looks really cool. I am now downloading it.

I am better than you.

WOW! That is obvious!

I hope you all enjoyed your liver while it lasted.

Quote from simulation :

Actually I already have sega rally...the only good thing about that one is the deformable tracks....and "motorstorm pacific rift" has that, and although it's not a true simulator it is definatly more entertaining.

so i guess i'll just wait until someone comes up with the brilliant idea to
make a rally simulator. i'm sure many people would be interested.

That would be something. It'll probably take as long as the GT5 creators to make. Well, so I say.

Would it be a between a 1940 to 1955 Chevrolet?

I can just hear "We Didn't Start the Flame War" song running through my head. Also, I should have read.

*Check out my punctuation!*

Alright BlueFlame, take it away! Surprise us with something HARD.

I thought DiRT would be mentioned here. How about DiRT?
