[ksmith5666]

Not a great start, game crashed during intro to Donut Media story

[BravoSteelviper]

Finished the last of my heraldry flags, this one being the Northern Ireland quarter of the Royal Standard.

Sharecode: 762 324 707

With that, I’ve completed the series I set out to do for @AAORTA, and I’m going to be taking a break from heraldry stuff for a bit. Try to find some designs that have more symmetry. And straight lines.

Seasonal Liveries:

1992 Golf (Northern Ireland): 138 303 363
1992 Silvia Club K’s (Man U): 121 889 942
1992 Silvia Club K’s (Man City): 357 132 963
1970 Camaro Z28 (Man City): 123 057 501
2020 Lambo STO (Man City): 550 865 748
1965 Toyota Sports 800 (Man City): 511 284 056
2012 Ferrari 599XX Evo (Man City): 128 282 043

New/popular:

Saleen Truck (Liberty): 139 627 114
Lotus Emira (Man City): 168 388 081

Jesko (Man U): 391 379 438

I’ve had a stellar week so far, in large part thanks to the new car pack cars. The Man City Emira has had hundreds of downloads, as has the Saleen “Liberty” pattern.

I don’t have any custom vinyl groups that I use to make the “Liberty” pattern, but if there’s any interest I can do up a little step by step tutorial on how I do them in case anybody wanted to make their own (or something similar). I’ve got it worked out so I can knock them out pretty quickly.

2021 AMG-Black (Man City): 745 499 573
Heads up livery creators… some of the mappings on the side/top are really not intuitive.

Oh yeah, forgot about my Man U vinyl group:

SC: 416 105 062
The gradients were a pain!

[CashlessPlains8]

I went 92 Silvia NA, two easy wins. I hope others have similar results

Happy driving all!

[BravoSteelviper]

Three 1st places. But the team lost on two of those. Back to the trial again. The tune is fine. I just need another driver to be able to follow me up to the front and stay there.

Huh. We got awarded the prize anyway. Well, I’m gonna run it again. Yeah, I took the NA one.

[TheGillesMuller]

Used Cashless’ tune, good car but top speed kills it on the latter sections of the first 2 courses, the Silvia ahead of me on Hilltop was being used by a good driver and just waltzed away from me after the 90 degree left, I would have finished 2nd on Guanajuato Sur had the finish line been 100 yards further up the road too, just had miles more straight line speed.

Perhaps it’s karma for last week that I landed in a very nice team here though, my car wasn’t even brushed once by a human, same old bizarre and stupid AI though.

[Laberbacke]

“… WHOSE watching the shop” in the subtitles of the Donut intro. Did the proofreaders get fired?

And another one for the “infinite loading screen”. Also, before that it took MUCH longer than usual to load into the photo mode.

[Patrick_Moon500]

Two liveries for the '94 Silvia that some members may find appealing, both broadly based on the late 90s Peugeot 406 Super Tourers that ran in Britain and Germany respectively. I’ve given both DTM race decals.

SC: 149 523 169

SC: 970 140 053

Naturally these liveries are highly ‘body kit’ sensitive so it may turn out as a mangled, horrible abominations depending on your upgrade choices.

Enjoy!

[Not_Here_Too]

They’d have to hire proofreaders first before they could be fired for missing that.

[CashlessPlains8]

Thanks for giving it a go. I agree it doesn’t have the greatest top speed but I always seem to have issues driving tunes with more power and less grip.

I watch your guys dot in rivals and wish I could have that kind of control…as it’s leaving me in the dust!

[robotiChart]

Only 4 of us on trial.

Clean ai and human.

Ran turbo Silvia but got caught on the straights.

Also caught a corner just the end of the first race.

A 4th and a 3rd. Good team.

[leetorts]

Whose bright idea was get 3 flags in Horizon open? Can you waste any more of our time? It’s takes like 20 min to even find a rush. It’s puts you into in progress events and doesn’t even tell you which one you are in. So you have to sit there for 5 min to even find out where you are and it you missed it. Are you joking? I have to wait through stuff I don’t even want to do. Don’t you think it’s overloaded enough this week and maybe don’t put in the most time consuming thing you can possibly think of? Do you ever think about the annoying stuff you ask sometimes? Unbelievable the lack of thought. Is there any easy way to do this? I doubt I would be able to do it all in one round as well. Asking too much. Some of us don’t want to be bothered all week and just finish it in one shot. 20 min I’m at 1 flag. You put in a room with 10 people buzzing around. My god. Are they ai or people? I can’t tell. where is the regular team games. I don’t understand it always me and 10 people. Every time.

[GreaseRodSucho]

Apparently I lost the Playa Tranquilo house in the process. After the DM HiLow introduction I lost the rights to the house. Did they introduce yet another new bug that loses houses?

Seriously, did PG master the art of home repossession?

[TheGillesMuller]

Been trying to run the Trial again and now been kicked back to the map after winning the first race 3 times in a row now, never even heard of this bug until Jezza mentioned it not long ago.

Tell you what I’m going to keep doing the Trial until I finally make it to Hilltop again, let’s keep count of how many times it takes shall we?

1
2
3
4
5
6
Lucky 7 perhaps? Ahahahahaha…

No.

Going to try something different for attempt 8, I’m going to hang back and not finish 1st on Guanajuato Sur.

Nope…still got booted out.

I hope this never happens to anyone who hasn’t completed the Trial yet, I usually call bugs in the game poor but this?

This is plain embarrassing PG.

[PocketPoncho_UK]

Did the trial with Cashless’ NA tune…smashed it, great tune

[CashlessPlains8]

Awesome to hear!

[PentEd1231]

Right,i’m well aware that i need to get out more,but just the intro to the new Donut nonsense has me pretty incensed. That plank under the Brat on axle stands and nothing else sums up the complete lack of car knowledge coming from any of the content creators. We daren’t do a sweary or many other (usually fun) things in the game for the sake of the children;but hey kids,come look here,this is how you work under a car??? Idiots
