I can see them as well. Worth the wait too. 😄

Looking over all these R5?liveries between ARA and WRC etc.  I have noticed that everyone is using a basic design/pattern, yeah its changed up some, but many of them are just 3 colors.  

 

Now art is completely subjective I understand many probably like them. However as someone that had worked in the automotive wrap industry for many years, there are a lot of templates that are available of which many are similar and follow basic shapes.  I wish more designers thought outside the box with color combinations, patterns, textures, etc just to differentiate themselves.   Ken Block has been somewhat successful in for designs that are rather unconventional.

 

anyhow not a rant, just an observation that I wonder if anyone else picked up on this?

You know who created really nice liveries in the past? Not designers but the creative minds of kids! 

And who remembers this one:

@SimVansevenant I can agree with that!   A couple of those are very good.

[SRD_SimVansevenant 792]

@gfRally A kid's imagination has no limits. Their creations are usually bolder or more impressive because they don't think about what people might like or not. They just go insane and do what they want, no matter how crazy it is. 😛

Hmmm for some reason I now kind of want the csgo skinning community to hit some of these cars with custom liveries. Some of the designs they put out are wild and aggressive, would look perfect on a few of these cars if you can line up the angles right. The first one from @SimVansevenant gave me immediate Fire Serpent vibes and now I need that wrapped on a Fiesta lol

Simple is better and makes your sponsor logos pop more.

 

Plus think of all the "iconic" schemes through the years, none have been absolute messes that look like someone threw up all over a car.

They're simple and clean.

Hello to all the modders,

 

As I am not an expert in modding ( not even close ... ) who can make me a Peugeot 208 R5, Skoda R5 or Polo R5 with Martini livery ? I would be very very apreciated.

Thanks for your suport and skills.

Regards from Portugal

I haven't come across that file before while creating liveries. 

[SkyRex 402]

Made some exposure of the afaik first R-GT Livery for DR2.

If the creator happens to be here too, great work, looks much better than all the Mustang ones ingame.

 

 

[F2CMaDMaXX 492]

Oh i saw that appear on RD, and for some reason, i don't have it.... or do i?  Link?  Nope, i do, i forgot 🙂

that file is used by the livery_user to mask where the patterns show on the car, patterns used for the pre made liveries in DR2.0 and the branding suite liveries on D4

Love this design, nice change for the DAT-SUN 😉

If you install a livery and it looks like there is almost no AA in play on the livery itself, edges and texts looks really jagged, what's wrong?

most likely, lack of mip maps

Hey folks - I've uploaded the base 2019 JWRC livery, adapted for the Mk7 Fiesta R2: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/2019-junior-wrc-livery-template.27294/

The intention is for it to be used to help other modders create other JWRC liveries. Or can just be used in game as is 🤙

[PJTierney 4,485]

Hello everyone, just thought I’d drop in a note regarding the DLC car files and the inability to edit liveries.

These cars are encrypted for a number of reasons, the main one being that if left unencrypted, players without the DLC content could freely access them.

 

In order to edit the livery files of these cars and produce livery mods, the car files are required to be unencrypted, however this is not something we are willing to do I’m afraid.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I felt it best we give you a heads up as to why you can’t create livery mods for these cars.

Great work & great idea, i rated on RD full stars!

It would be great if you program to release full category jWRC/R2 base livery, as well fictional WRC/R5 ones!

@PJTierney

Hi,

would it be possible for you to include the texture pssg files in the game placed at \DiRT Rally 2.0\cars\XXX\livery_00\textures_high?

The DLC cars will not work with only these files.

[PJTierney 4,485]

I can pass the feedback on.

[Riggs 1,664]

It will be hard driving the Focus 2001 without a Martini livery for sure. If only you guys can find a way to read texture files separately.

Sorry to bring bad news for developers, but the pirated version can already use cars from DLC! But there are no official users yet ((
