Livery competition winners are not getting onto the recommended list after their 6 months of being featured. I have won the livery competition several times and my winning cars are not being promoted to the Recommended list even though they have earned enough downloads/likes to be represented. If you sort the list by downloads, they are in their correct spot, just not advancing to the Recommended list. I know of (at least) three of my cars that are not promoting: My Lynk & Co. 03+, 1966 Chevy Nova and 1969 Pontiac GTO. Ticket #609837 generated.
I should check mine too

While I not make livery (yet), this is a nice feature and they should fix it.

Well im pretty late but what is the recommended list? Is it something in the game or on the forum? Or do you mean the normal “Find Liveries” tab, because there i cant sort by downloads.
In game.
If you have/buy a car, the initial liveries displayed are:
1: Friends/followed > 2: Trending today > 3: Top downloads. The number of liveries shown for each of these 3 categories varies a bit, but that’s generally how it goes.
If you search for liveries using current car/model, then you get liveries listed by total downloads (# of likes adds weight to the sorting so not always exact).
The sorting for the “3: Top downloads” situation is not including liveries that have grown in popularity and should be included in that category.
On Recommended, my Lync & Co should be between Cyberpunk and Black Edition, but it’s not.

Ah thats what you mean now i know exactly what you mean. But it has always been that way hasent it? So the winners are just displayed on recomended, that should be normal, as mostly the winners dont have many downloads in the beginning.
Edit: Now i think i really understood the problem and yes that is indeed very weird. But isnt this system controlled by an algorythm?
Winners only get pinned to recommended for 6 months. After 6 months, they get put into back into the deck. Just not advancing into the recommended display. I’m guessing the task that updates recommended isn’t including winning designs (maybe some metadata is getting altered to get pinned for 6 months (and isn’t restored after expiration?) idk

I guess that the designs on the recomended can only change in the first few days (I mean the “top Downloads” ones). You can see that with new cars coming out, in the first 24 or maybe even 48 hours there are only the 2 categories Friends and Followed and top downloads. So maybe after those 24/48h, the top downloads category stays how it is with no new designs being able to get in there.
