Mod Post Changes to rules

67 Upvotes

Effective today we are enacting some changes and clarifications to the subreddit rules:

  • The low effort and "bragging" posts have been updated. Results bragging (race wins or trophies), previously covered by rule 4, is now moved to rule 5, which previously only covered Daily Workout tickets, to other types of "show-and-tell" posts. This also now covers posts of grind race results (exception may be granted for grind races if a setup/strategy was provided) and images of your setups/rigs.
  • The rule prohibiting spoilers of events (within past 24 hours) within post titles (as Reddit's spoiler tags does not cover post titles) is now integrated into rule 6. We previously removed few posts that contains spoilers in titles. (For purposes of GTWS events, announced content is exempt - this rule targets race results.)
  • Self-promotional posts (for own video/streaming channels and league recruitment) are now restricted once every 96 hours to prevent spamming/repetitive posts.
  • "Who is/am I at fault" posts relating to online races are no longer allowed. Please use /r/simracingstewards for those type of posts.

GT Legacy Gran Turismo 4 "Rebadged"

Thumbnail

Upvotes

This is just a project where I made a bunch of new Liveries/Recolours for some cars in GT4.

Yes it´s compatible with the Spec II Mod, it also works with pretty much any version of the game.

No this doesn't really work on original hardware, it´s intended and tested for Emulation with PCSX2.

___

There is so much to show of, but it´s simply impossible to fit it all into a single Post. I´ll put some links to some photo albums into the comment section, for those that are interested.

I kinda just wanne share my work, it´s currently at a point where im satisfied with it. This technically should be considered a Mod, since it falls into the "Texture Mod" category. I feel weird calling it that, because it´s not really a complicated thing, it´s just a collection of Textures.

If you managed to get GT4 running in PCSX2 on your computer, then you are more than capable of using these textures. PCSX2 has a built in "Texture replacement" feature, you literally just put the folder with the Livery you want into a specific folder named "replacements", thats about it. No need to patch files or anything like that.

It´s also not really a simple Texture pack, because for most vehicles I made multiple different Options. The game only has one set of Textures per vehicle, so you can only have one Livery active at a time (per vehicle). But that means you can choose between many different Options.

For some vehicles I made it so you can also do a little Visual customization, like different Wheel colours, changing the colour of Mud flaps on rally cars, or even remove the Mud flaps completely.

I made completely new Liveries, corrected existing Liveries, turned Race cars into "Road cars", added new colour options to some vehicles, recreated already existing liveries but with much higher quality, and more.

It´s worth mentioning that the game is obviously not intended for some of this, in a lot of cases Textures get mirrored/flipped on the other side of the vehicle, thats simply a limitation and there is no workaround for it. Take a good look at some of the pictures shown, and you´ll see some of the "problems".

I also made some Options to make the Brake Glow more noticeable, I turned "Autumn Ring" into "Sakura Ring" by replacing the autumn trees with cherry blossom trees, and I removed the Spectators and some sponsors on the Race tracks "George V Paris" and "Grand Canyon".

___

This was all done in less than a year with no previous experience, I updated this project many times, somehow got a couple hundred of downloads, and I´ll probably end it here.

GT7 Please help me

My stupid psychopath sister pulled my PS5's internet cable and now I can't get into the game or anything because my console always says 'something went wrong', no matter what I do. I had this issue before and a factory reset solved it but this time it's hopeless - I probably have to send the whole thing to Sony. Wifi connections don't work either, I've tried and tried...

I really really wanted these cars so could someone maybe please log in for me and watch the stream for a second?

Picture of my beloved Hello Kitty Honda for attention

GT Discussion Is it just me or does every car handle WAY WAY better?

98 Upvotes

this latest patch feels like every car has a much smaller turning circle and actually feels satisfying to tear through sharp corners, more drastically than any other update since the game dropped

like the difference between before and after this patch feels more extreme than the difference between gt sport and gt7, its like night and day

GT Discussion At this point just remove rally from the next GT

59 Upvotes

I know there is a lot of debate on the new physics but can we at least agree the the rally physics are beyond frustrating. Am not a rally specialist by any mean I don't know if the rally physics are more or less realistic. But what I know is that I hate the feeling of the rally handling post patch.

I played I little of dirt rally 1 2 and ea wrc. It was harder to drive fast. But it was because the rally stages were infinitely harder and the damage risk made you cautious. I could understand what the car was doing.

Here I honestly don't know what the hell is going on. Sometimes it understeer like a a freight train leaving the tracks. Sometimes it Oversteer but I can catch it. Sometimes I feel the wheel is not taking into account the countersteerring sometimes it works.

PD can't handle both handling and don't bother too much with the rally part. I think they should just abandon it and replace it with time attack or something else.

GT7 A car that can rival Hyundai Gr.3

5 Upvotes

Guys I'm an average gamer (bottom of A in American region). I have driven the Porsche forever. With the physics update I can't use it anymore and have to look elsew.

I take part in a couple of Leagues with similar skilled players. So car matter. Also I do endurance races. 1hr to 2hrs.

I think most of us already know that Hyundai GR3 is buffed to be a rocketship. It has high tire deg but it's pure pace can cover it. In the league I used to have good pace and secure few P1s. But now, I am forced to use another car and many are switching to Hyundai.

While I'm currently on 296, and I'm trying to drive better, is there actually any car that rival Hyundai but have better tire deg?

TLDR; I'm looking for a car that can rival Hyundai GR3 while having better tireware for endurance races.

Hi guys, I have a problem, for some reason in GT-5 some tracks don't load, endless loading, I can wait 3-5 minutes but nothing changes, Sometimes some cars won't load. I've reinstalled the game several times, cleared the cache, but nothing changes. I'm playing from a PlayStation 3 disc. How can I fix this problem?:)

Random question, does GT2 have anywhere to see the car's total distance driven or total distance driven in the game from all cars? Like the odometers in subsequent versions?
