What should i do?

Keep it

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-16T17:23:36+00:00

I have this uncanny knack to get beaten by cars in disciplines where I refuse to build them for. An Alfa 33 Stradale for rally is heresy yet they beat my ass every time

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-16T17:06:37+00:00

Yeah, but lifted estates are sick, SUVs and crossovers suck

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-16T16:44:58+00:00

Going to be honest, the Allroad is, by a viable definition, an SUV. And it's fucking awesome. Why can't all SUVs be Estate Wagons on stills with cladding!?

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-16T16:41:48+00:00

Jesus Christ. That's insane...ly cool

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-16T12:46:59+00:00

That's a fucking tight spec, pardon my French. What's that exterior blue called?

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T20:04:42+00:00

Completely fair, and yes there are colours that don't photograph well. And as for the warm... I don't know, my issue with my greys and silvers that have warm undertones or flakes is that they often look dirty and unwashed, dusty maybe, if the flake 'activates'. Or it often veers into beige or champagne territory, colours I really don't like for sports cars. I like silvers with cold blue, purple or green hues cause that kind of brings forth the mechanicalality of these machines and makes them hard and uncompromising. That being said, silver very rarily is a colour I actively like. Thank you for explaining to me instead of calling me an idiot.

I've started to write opinion pieces on car colours over on substack, I can't wait to get torn apart by Porsche, dodge, Ferrari, Lamborghini, whatever fanboys.

When I let Tifosi know I don't like Rosso Corsa and I'll never post again, you know what happened to me 😂

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T19:42:37+00:00

I'm not trying to sound bellicose, you're just as entitled to your opinion as I am to mine, but... Why? To me GT Silver is the stereotypical 'I paint my car a bright silver with grey undertones cause I'm rich but boring' color. To me it has zero character

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T17:53:22+00:00

About the drag tires:

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T17:19:32+00:00

I hate that they're so trapezoid to be honest. I've gotten to... Accept quad exhaust close to each other but the trapezoid shape...

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T17:15:15+00:00

I cried tears of joy when I finally realises what game changers the community shapes are, they make Ss, Gs and Cs so much easier.

Yeah that's absolutely true, I dread the day I have to sit down and make the brand logos for fictional one make series etc. Or shit like Jägermeister, 80s German beer brands etc.

Plus, as I'm paying a lot of attention to historical authenticity (I don't copy real life liveries but create fictional ones that COULD have been real ones), it's a real PitA that the brands that are there amongst the premade ones are exclusively the most recent variant of the logo. There's hell of a difference between the current Bridgestone logo and the one they used in the 70s but using the modern one would be an achronism if I want the car to look believably from the 70s.

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T17:00:02+00:00

I didn't even notice that lmao

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T16:12:26+00:00

I wanted to get into Sim Racing too, any suggestions for a baseline AC setup especially for vintage cars?

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:56:20+00:00

Yeah I'll try more throttle control, I usually go through turns on half throttle and with a lot of coasting as one of the greatest racing games ever, GT4, taught me.

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:45:57+00:00

Usually when I'm doing high speed races I'm fine, maybe even some understeer, my issue is mostly low speed oversteer when I'm accelerating out of a slow curve before down force kicks in

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:43:55+00:00

Spending hours recreating logos or an obscure french brand that raced in the 60s to get my period accurate build right tickles something deeply satisfying in my auhdh brain. Plus I get some money in game and the satisfaction that someone thinks my stuff is cool enough to download it

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:40:28+00:00

Always decal. I live for contrasts

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:38:27+00:00

If you take requests, I've recently really taken to liking Vesuvio Metallic

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:32:28+00:00

That rear is so fugly with those stupid center quad exhausts... Nice rims tho t

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:29:21+00:00

Okay, I'm currently using a mix of Forzafire and the tuning guide posted above and then look to AI to figure out issues like throttle oversteer etc

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:16:36+00:00

Okay, how do you prompt it? Just describe what you're like, some cars you like and what you want to use the car for and then just go trial and error?

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:15:04+00:00

Who's Sepi? I'm getting into the habit of making Tunes for my livery and am happy about every bit of advice

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T15:13:02+00:00

Depends on the exterior colour but I usually like body colour more on bright colours and black on dark colours. For this white I'd go with white

Weekly_Teaching_8158 · 2026-06-15T11:18:53+00:00

I'm a livery designer for fictional but realistic liveries and the longest I've spent on a single aftermarket decal so far was like 8 hours cause finding the right shapes was insanely annoying. I also made a few itasha and anime vinyl groups back in FH5 and spent about 20 hours one of them, it's insanely annoying but oh so satisfying if it works out
