B2O Paint Schemes for iRacing

[Daunt]

No not B2O events. But we might need a new team. It's confusing as eff and partially iRacing's fault, as it seems to be buggy. I wonder what happens if you'd delete the team and remake it as B2O Endurance Team?

 

[Kenadian]

I don't care really what it's called provided it's got some level of specificity that we can reuse.

You guys come up with a name and let me know so I can create it tonight.

Make one team for all the endurance races, it's simpler and better recognized as such.

B2O Endurance Racing and B2O Endurance Team work just fine if you ask me. It'll reduce the administration side of things.

For shorter races with several B2O cars, make them B2O Endurance Blue, White, Red or something, if you're avoiding 1, 2, 3, A, B, C, etc.

I really think this is the right way to go. Any other way just seems too complicated. Having to have this team for this thing, and that team for that thing, and pay attention to who is on which team is just a headache that we don't need.

Also, don't be specific towards the make of the car, so that we can have a little more freedom to use it as we need it. Kind of a Reserve/Rental system. We'll 'check out' a team when we need it..

 

[Daunt]

Agreed. Having EVERYONE on the team reduces any worries and the need to be constantly adding and maintaining a number of teams (assuming we'd have 3+ teams depending on the event)

Thank god I only need to manage myself in these races :lol::lol::lol:

 

[Steve7Plays]

[Steve7Plays]

aaaahem that cant be cause in the session those screenies were taken aaaaiiii did drive a selfmade shitty macca paint cause I didnt know till when I get the paint from ya

btw. except for the Austrian Flag every color is a B2O color I think... atleast I got the color codes from other B2O paints / out of the forum here

aaand also I no saw baseline for Ford V8 here

 

[Kenadian]

You do realize that all I need is your Customer ID to load any paint I want on your car locally on my PC right?

Visiting your profile page at iRacing.com is all I need to get your Customer ID

 

[Steve7Plays]

ha... okay.. didnt know.

 

[Daunt]

Yep! You could actually find a few drivers you know to be menaces, save them as their supposed targa file. So if you know Ken is an absolute menace, if his profile # is 12345, you can upload a very obvious targa like yellow with black stripes and save as car_12345.tga and it will show locally for you as that (in the car folder, so you know in-sim.

Keep in mind trading paints will overwrite that unless you lock it (don't allow editing).

I know a few people that use something like this to avoid loonies:

Re: Fragtard iRacing Custom Paint Schemes

Can we have the RUF Track paint uploaded for the C spec? I could care less if it says GT3 on it or whatever, or if you want to remove that stuff for the C spec that would be cool too

 

[Slider]

You should be able to just copy the paint from one folder to the other and/or upload it from Track folder to your TP account.

 

[Steve7Plays]

oh Ken I have got another request could you please put my name + austrian flag on the Star Mazda and send it my way?

Re: Fragtard iRacing Custom Paint Schemes

Daunt , the base V8 supercar TGA is possibly corrupt. In iRacing it shows up mostly black with some specks of color all around it. It looks fine when viewing the file in photoshop but in game it does this, wether it's through trading paints or through dropping it manually into my paints folder. Other paints I try work fine so maybe it just needs to be re-exported.

 

[Daunt]

I want to say this is a TP issue. Especially if the targa you downloaded is fine, and it's just displaying odd. I've heard it happening before.

I downloaded the paint off of this thread, and even tried manually putting it in my folder as my car ID and it displayed the same thing.

 

[Daunt]

What do you mean same thing? As in the black issue as you described? Or no problems?

Manually placing it in my paints folder (As in NOT through trading paints, although it does it either way) still gives me the all black paint with very tiny specks of color here and there. Other paints work fine.
