You must do some bloody good paint-jobs to earn that sort of money!! I'll have to give it a go myself tonight...

It was quite funny last night, was following an light purple Aygo while in 'Tag (Virus)' and as i approached the back of it i could see the numbers '69' in a big pink font, covering the entire rear of the car. Decided to try for an overtake in the Beemer X6 and when i turned the camera to the left i then saw the words "i'm gay" written in the same style, once again covering the entire panels of his motor. After this i spotted another one exactly the same, guess they were teaming up or something! Although i found it quite amusing at first i'm surprised they can get away with things like that, surely Turn 10 will ban them at some point maybe?
That'd be a bit homophobic wouldn't it? hehe

There won't ever be a classic Mini in this game, it's wheelbase is too small for the models they base the cars on
Err.. Smart?

ETA SmartCar I mean, I wasn't sarcastically calling you stupid biggrin

hehe

The Smart rolls on 17" wheels same as the Cygnet, the mk1 Mini runs 10's and the later 1.3i has 13's. Shortening the wheelbase for the Smart would have been fairly easy but the Minis proportions are just too small for the models.

The problem might be with wheel size more than wheelbase. I think the smallest wheels in the game can be 13" or 14", but they have balloon tyres fitted to get the size up to what the game engine can do (if there is a car in the game with small wheels and low profile tyres, I'm happy to stand corrected). So 10" wheels, or 12/13" with low profile tyres that a Mini would need are too small for the game. The standard model Smart in the game has 15" wheels BTW, the black one in the photo has Brabus 16" front/17" rear wheels.

BURN HIM!!!!!

hehe

AJ you are right but the wheelbase does play a small part as in the space needed for those wheels to sit inside the car. The smallest wheels on a standard car are 13"s but they don't change size until you get to 15" so they are actually 14"s if that makes any sense, still too big for the baby Mini, I've seen Mini's on 14"s before and they look daft laugh

Ah okay. You say that you might be doing a giveaway when you reach 100,000,000? I've suddenly become very intrested!! What does this 'giveaway' involve may i ask?
For starters I will be selling a copy of EVERY car in my garage that has a paint job on the AH for a 1,000cr starting price fully tuned.

I will also be running some paint and photo comps.

Pommygranite said:
AH? What's that and how can I make use of it? I have VIP membership smile
Basically you are going to need a reasonably decent paintjob on a popular car, preferably one of the level prize cars, as these go cheap on the AH. Buy said car on the AH for 1,000 cr add your paint and tune and sell it back on the AH for 200,000 - 300,000 cr.
Great thanks beer

Does anyone here know how to write something on a car without making each letter one by one? For example, can you write the words on the keyboard and then add it to the car in the decal editor?

I'm afraid not mate, every layer must be done individually, unless you highlight a number of them, then copy and paste.

What I do is work out the number of letters, then stamp them all the same, then change the layer to the right one and move them in to position. It saves a bit of time instead of resizing every layer.

Right I'm issuing a challenge to painters everywhere. I have a tune on the classic Aston V8 Vantage.

I'll put 50 up on my storefront by this evening and I'll give you all a week to come up with a paintjob for it.

Winner gets 2 million, plus any car tuned to any class you want.

Have fun wink
Quick request to all the racers out there, I have put my A600 tune free on my SF too (GT broadspeed), would love to see how every finds the two tunes back to back.

Curry's Tune - 7.0/6.0/8.1/8.2/6.6 - 427bhp/427lb-ft/3048lbs/5.3L

My Tune - 7.5/5.8/8.4/8.1/6.4 - 485bhp/437lb-ft/3081lbs/6.0L

A question for you guys....

The past few times I've played Forza I've had instances of it freezing for a split second then returning. Happens at various parts fo the game, single player, online etc. First thought was maybe the disk was dirty so gave it a clean etc but still the same. It has been suggested that I reinstall the disk 1 to the HDD, how do I go about this? Will I lose things I've donwloaded?? What about my save game etc will this be affected???

Thanks.

I've done a very quick back to back at Camino Viejo and my tune was about half a second quicker....maybe we can put that down to familiarity instead of an actual difference...

One note....why is your cars steering soo rigid.....

My version didn't even come with a manual, all i have is a bit of paper with a load of bloody crap on it. Don't think the game has ever come with a english guide.

There's nothing to worry about losing any of your save or anything else from the HDD, go into System Settings from the dashboard and find the Forza save then the installed game file from the list and delete it, then put the disc back in and select game info. There it should have options if you want to install it or play straight from the disc. But, remember you must only delete the installed game file (it'll be the biggest file there, about 6Gb ish).
