Thank you for posting this thread. At least with some user examples we’ll all know what we’re paying all this money for. As simple of fixes as these are, many have been left untouched for years now. There are several reasons I’ve not bought FH5. This is one of them. These are basic texture map fixes. Even with enormous span limits over each face, it’d take no more than ten minutes for even a novice to spiff up.

If you’re a painter, these are the glitches you’re paying for, folks. Is it worth it?

As already stated the car has misaligned vinyls on the fuel cap and distortions on the left side in free roam.

Once again you are not able to fully wrap the car. A small part on the buttom of the wheel arches and the top part of the wheel arches can’t be coverd.



Mostly fixed, after patch:

There is also a small spot underneath the right headlight and above the right air intake that can’t be covered:

Also there seems to be a small shift on the left side between photomode and free roam. Might also be a shift in the not coverable part, further investigation needed.

Thanks for pointing these issues out. Saves me wasting time and getting frustrated once again.

About the issues between photomode and free roam. That’s a known problem with a lot of cars and presumably has to do with the “World-/Car LOD” settings. Photomode always seems to use the highest possible setting (Ultra) and therefore looks fine but if you actually use any setting below Ultra and High these bugs or “shifts” as you call them seem to appear.

Thank you for for pointing this out, by increasing the world car level of detail to extreme all the differences between phototmode and free roam seem to disappear. Had it set to medium before.

When wrapping the car in vinyls some spots can’t be covered. 2 at the points where the side goes into the front bumper, one on the buttom of the front bumper and one one each wheel archer.

Again one of those shifts appearing when lowering the “world car level of detail” setting.

Edit: it has another bug, the mapping from the left door to the side panel isn’t aligned. Just the left side:

I’ve got to admit that this one is more hilarious than livery-ruining. The etron maps all the applied vinyls on the mirrorstands several times. Fixed

When the C8 Corvette transitioned from FH4 to FH5, they apparently masked the carbon trim and grilles out of the user-content mapping space. Okay, great, except they didn’t get all of them.

Like mentioned by @PlumCrazy010 one of the carbon trim pices on the right side of the car get’s wrapped with vinyls, while all the others stay clear.

And there seems to be a shift on the top between photomode and free roam:

These bugs already existed in FH4. Seems they’ve just ported the models without even giving them the slightest touch.

BMW M3 2005 with the Rocket Bunny bodykit.

Also has some other issues like for example around the door handles.

They must have changed something with the mapping of the Nissan 240SX. I just pulled mine out for a Tour and was greated with this.

That’s how it should actually look and did before.
