My winning livery from Livcomp13 is not online in FH4 anymore. Does sombody know what happened to it? i won the 13th competition with it. I have the design still in my own liveries list but it is not at top 1st spot as always.
Car: 2016 Audi RS6
File name: POLIZEI PEARL / POLIZEI ALU / POLIZEI BODYKIT
the design is off since a month or so. i tried to re-share it again but the server denied it.
The liveries are still available. But they aren’t in the featured item slot anymore. Competition 13 was 8 months ago, though. Maybe featured items age-out eventually?
Yes, I’m pretty sure featured items have a time limit. I don’t know what it is, and I suspect they tend to stay visible for longer on less popular cars.
OK. i doublechecked the Designs, but POLIZEI BODYKIT with over 100K downloads is gone and not at 1st position anymore. I still can see my design at auction house but at the painterspot ther is “SERIES”. so this is impossible and must be a major bug.
Here is my theory on what happened to your design: you may have inadvertently unshared it by deleting an alias to the design. If you make the mistake of loading one of your designs through Find New Designs, or My Creative Hub, instead of My Designs, it will create a duplicate of that design in My Designs. The duplicate will be an alias to the original design in your inventory. It will have the same file name and show the same download count, use count, etc. You need to be very careful on how you go about removing the duplicate design, because if you just delete either one, it will unshare the design. To remove the alias, you need to load the design you want to delete on a car, make a minor modification to that design Apply Vinyls and Decals, and save the modified design to the current car. This will break the alias and orphan the modified design from all other instances. You can then safely delete the modified version of the design without affecting the share status of the original.
The Save-System of the Liveries/Designs is definitly not worked out yet. It would be better, if the shared designs can be updated instead of unshared after editing. When you reshare the design, it puts another version online. that is so dumb coded.
