On a roll reflection map on environment, i'll have a look at that wot i'm doing is adding the background into the ground plane as of this tut here http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=401383#post401383

But when you render it you only get the background to where the ground plane finishes the top half is just white so i added the same background in the enviroment options in render to join the 2 together but the the enviroment backgrond is slightly diffrent colour,darker than the one from the ground plane.

Well been playing with backgounds, only problem is where the ground plane ends and environment starts you can see the join, tried photoshoping it but didnt work. Tried all sorts to rectify it to actually moving the car rather than the camera but then you loose prospective.

Sorry tikshow that hide from camera isnt working on the plain, i thought it was working because we had a white background, but when i added a grey background it was the same as before, so the reflection plain is still being reflected in the the floor reflection, i turned off enable refection/refraction on the plain that worked be we had no reflection on the car then.

Thank you so much tikshow that did the trick, picked up a lot in just over a day usings 3ds max and brazil, really enjoying the results over blender.

As you can see from the pic, also is there a way to change the colour of the floor from white to grey maybe, i'm using a material called light mirror 01 which is a advanced brazil mat i add going into the brazil csg server in the render tab, i see there a option to change the base colour of the ground plain which is white, i changed it to grey but the render still came out white, what did i do wrong.

Got a small prob here wonder if one of you guy's can help me out Got a nice mirrored floor to put in my scene. I'm using morrows scenes for the cars but when i render it the floor is also reflecting the the white plain above the car from the scene onto the floor. How do i stop the plain getting reflected too, i moved it up out the way but the car looks bad when i do that. Sample pic below.

Got to give a massive to LineR32 for all his help on moving from blender to 3ds max. Going to be a slow process learning new skills but at least this is a start

Well been playing with this for a little while now, actually got something i'm happy with as a desktop wallpaper now, i've read through this thread but still can't find how to change the floor texture from grey to something else, maybe Bogey Jammer or someone else could do a tut for it as i found the ones in post one really easy to follow.

Oh and a big thanks to Bogey Jammer for all his work on this , i'm having lots of fun.

Can this program be used for other sims like GTR2,Race,Arca or Rfactor, would love to render some of those skins if i could.

I've looked everywhere for an answer, and it's probably staring me in the face but.... i was racing in a server the other evening and in the position list next some drivers there was a "R" to the left of there name including me,i thought as it was a server where refueling was mandatory that may because i hadnt refueled yet, but i noticed it changed colours to. Can some shine some light on this

Hi Everyone

This is actually my second post as i've requested a skin and thought it a bit rude not to say Hi in here.

My kids got me S2 for Fathers Day last Sunday as i've had S1 since back in 2003 i believe but never got played as at the time as i was heavily into Nascar 2003 with TRM and UK/Hog Racing. I own most if not all the racing sims from the afore mentioned Nascar 2003 and GTR 2,GTL,GPL,RFactor,Arca and Race 07 but LFS is the first sim i've felt comfortable racing in cockpit view as i've always tended to use the bonnet view if i could.

I drive with a Logitech DFP set at 720 degress rotation and love after upgrading last year from my trusty old M$ Sidewinder FF wheel. I've only recently got back into Sim racing after a friend sent me a link to SRT's website and saw whats going on now in the sim racing world.

I aint no spring chicken either, i'm in my mid 40's with kids and grand kids but have always loved my sim racing even though i was never quick i was always polite and aware of what was going on around me on the track, my quote was always "It's not the winning that counts, it's the taking part" and that what i enjoy in my racing
XFR/FXR Arsenal skins

Hi Everyone
First of as this is my first post on here, wot a great site and brilliant sim (got S2 as a Fathers Day Present) and i'm eager beaver to go online and race with some of you guys, but first i'm finding my way around the tracks offline.

Would it be possible for one of you talented guys to paint me a Arsenal skin for each of these cars. I've tried for along time to do my own but never had any success, reading and watching tuts just make me more confused.

This is a skin i used to race with when i was doing Nascar 2003 when i raced for infinity after leaving TRM. This is a bit pink so maybe a bit redder and the No 05 but something similar would be very nice, but anything would be very much appreciated
