That's just ridiculous.

That can pass off as a real picture EASILY. What the hell man..
That's photomode though right? That isn't what the TG track is like in game... that is using a kind of .hdr file to render much Hypershot does. So everything is a real photo apart from the model.



Unless you tell me that's the in-game track... in which case my mind would be blown.

Or how about the lighting on the back bumper side issue while painting (too dark in FM3). Has Jube or anyone commented on that? I'm sure that has to have been addressed, but would be good to get confirmed.

Hi Jube, I was wondering if you could comment on this little detail.

BTW, the 80 new vinyl shapes is good news! Have any creations you can give us a sneak peak on?
 
A little bit about painting
http://forums.forzamotorsport.net/forums/permalink/4811611/4811582/ShowThread.aspx#4811582

I played quite a while last night. Spent a good amount of time in the paint booth transfering my 908 livery which is the hardest livery I could've chosen but I thought I'd just jump in the deep end. Here are some notes I took.

*Lighting in the paintbooth is awesome. You can finally see the rear of the car clearly.

*There are two pages of new community submitted vinyl shapes as well as all the old shapes.

*No new fonts and mostly the same manufacturer decals.

*Unexpectedly, old vinyls that looked jaggedy in FM3 are sharp and clean in the new game.

*One thing I was dissappointed about is that metalic paint shows thru vinyl layers worse than ever. This means I had to radically alter my 908 replica which used metalic base in FM3.

*I was also able to get my old camera settings to work in the new game surprisingly.

*Storefronts work the same as in FM3, still 18 slots for designs.

It's not perfect so don't expect that although I do believe Turn10 has owned Polyphony Digital this time. Well done lads.

He is probably talking about Infineon or Indy. The guy didn't even knew the absense of Porsche lol.

Yeah you might be right Shinnn :) I'm pretty sure that if there was a track we didn't know about we would knew about it by now ;)

That spotlight homespace looks like it's the warehouse from a different angle.

Mclaren yes the Enzo has a ton of accuracy issues.

You should probably wait to see if you should buy a new version of the game if FM3 is any indication. Free DLC tracks in that game. Most likely due yo lack of storage space on the DVD. Who knows maybe they wont do that now so I suggest waiting.

Plus I think you would be stupid to buy used when sims are a dying breed of game especially on consoles. It's sorta sad that there won't be a console Race Pro with decent wheel support.

Its not hardcore porn if you don't find yourself tilting your head sideways once in a while.

I hope it don't overload the server. Loading 100 pics at once? Not very smart =\
He should limit it to the last 10 or so.

Just watch MS will see the bandwidth used and be like fuck it we're turning up the compression.

It's amazing how far we've gone in graphics when comparing with Forza 2. I'm afraid if we push any further graphically, the xbox will explode!
 
game looks great.

Really love the track detail. They definitively went the extra mile for the Top Gear track. even the trees are nearly identical. And most of the other tracks which I am not as familiar with they seem to cram a lot of stuff in there, The turn 10 environment modelers are in a league of there own.

The lighting is still exaggerated but definitively less cartoonie then 3 which is good. Then again They are nearly photo realistic with some of there photo mode areas like pic of the red TVR (?) on the top gear run way. Every video of gameplay I have seen of the TG track never looks that good or realistic. it still has the forza pop to it when your racing. but its no biggy. Photo area / home space looks better then in race graphics, news at 11.

Still I would say I am ok with the tone of the lighting now. it gives forza a unique enough look without making it look to realistic or cartoonie

I do believe I can see rollcages in there... though I think they already had those when you did weight reductions in 3.

I won't buy FM4 new because I don't want to financially support T10 for putting the 458 on the cover.

If I do get FM4, it will definitely be used.

I also boycott Shell, Acer, Puma, AMD, etc.

T10 is making a major effort to push the racing genre on consoles further, giving lots of competition to all rivals to push them for all of us racing genre fanatics benefit.

Come on bro jump on board man.


Why do you boycott all those companies?

They sponsor Ferrari.

He's salty that Mclaren will never has or will be as great as Ferrari.



screw Mclaren for their crap reliability earlier last decade. Kimi should have had two titles before finally getting one after joining Ferrari. I used to be a Macca fan until I got fed up with Kimi losing races because of blown Ilmor engines. My allegiance went with him and now I'm a Tifoso.
