Wonder if they are gonna implement penalties into the new GT League, I find myself driving like a complete madman in the mission challenges since you can do whatever you want. I think it would be nice and further contribute to better online races. In theory at least.
Also having no lap times registered and in a couple of races other people saying the same, while only 2 or 3 guys had times posted. Started 14th at Suzuka when I had a way faster time than the ones posted.. grr.
You can turn different penalties on/off in the arcade custom race mode, and choose high/low settings, so I assume they'll be on or off in the GT League races.
I'm also neutral on the addition of the GT League. At this point every time I turn on the game there's a different set of races waiting and I'm racing against different sets of players who generally provide good competition. GT League is going to be static content that will be out of date within a year as it won't include the new tracks and cars that get added, or weather ... it's Driveclub all over again.
lol
community section on GT dot com looks nice, btw.
edit: also (from SVG tips) :)

This is good advice.
I finally finished my first livery! Had it in mind since the beta but without the Decal upload it was incomplete. Really glad PD finally implemented it!
Is there a way to apply the same livery to different cars?
Unfortunately no. Would be nice and I think most would understand that most liveries would need adjusted once on a different car, but they really should give you this option. For very similar cars, like production and race versions of the same car it absolutely should be a given that you can transfer one to the other.
Does anyone know of a good website with suggested car tunes in regards to certain tracks/events?
Just something to point me in the right direction would be nice. Thanks.

Dont have twitter unfortunately. Am sure someone must have mentioned it tho, its pretty obvious due to the snap oversteer it seems to cause.
Any idea if it was like this in previous GT's?
Same here. Server must be getting hammered.
EDIT: Lots of folks complaining about lost qualifying times too.
Nevermind, I sorted the issue.
I changed a setting in Corel from "Internal Style Sheet" to "Presentation Attributes" when exporting SVGs.
So "Server Error" probably means more like "file format incompatible"

I used this page. Kept precision at 7 and turned on all switches.

The GT League bit had my hyped until I read it was just a bunch of single player AI trash races. Fuck man. They need to add some serious lobby options and allow us to make our own racing leagues. More cars just means more balance issues. We barely use hardly any of the cars right now as it is. Just add more tracks and beef up sport mode. I didn't buy GTS to once again hot lap against garbage AI for the 7th time. At least it is all free. Hoping the SR changes are solid, that is the only meaningful announcement in terms of better Sports mode and quality of racing.
Ok guys, uploaded the resetera logo and symbol with the original font.
excellent!!! gettin these.
I just hope sport mode is still the focus and they don't abandon it.
Ironically it's what I bought the game for.
What's the difference between the normal sound and the enhanced sound? Any comparisons out there?
Probably just different frequency response ranges.
I noticed a huge difference when I turned it on using my surround sound system but when using my cheapie Sony gold headset I dint notice any difference when turning it on.
Just try it out and see if you can hear an improvement on whatever setup you have.
?? Driveclub added lots of events using new cars, tracks and weather.
A lot of the races in GT League will also be with a group of cars, like the FF Challenge, 4WD Challenge, MR Challenge that we can see in the promotional shot of the beginner league. These will automatically allow any new cars within the entry requirements.
Also:
I take that to mean that they'll be adding events that use new cars, tracks combinations (and weather).
I do. Just avoid first gear, and gingerly throttle second. The game really pays off when youre gentle.. the hardest part is to maintain that and not get overly eager. I've lost several places due to that.
It seems most of the gear/turn indicators are wrong for gr3. I usually stay in gear or don't go down.
Ignore the gear indicator assist thingy.
Always.
It's wrong 9 times out of ten.
But yeh, you can drive the GR3 cars without TC using the pad. It's a steep learning curve and certain cars are easier than others (cars with higher "stability" tend to be better) but if you stick with it you'll get the hang of it.

Hmm went to do a bit of GT before work and used my 2nd PS4 as the kids were on my main one - looks like I've lost any progress from last night. The servers weren't recording times in sport mode either. I wonder if there's been an influx of new uses since black Friday and the servers are struggling to cope.
I had issues getting any lap times to register last night as well. But it did mean I started at the back of the pack at suzuka. I used my GTR and went in with the mindset of not pushing too hard as people are going to run wide on many corners over the 10 laps.
I was 3rd by the 2nd lap! Then at the start of the 3rd lap an over keen beetle rearended me on the first corner and pushed me wide. The same happened on the second corner and pushed me onto the grass. By the time I recovered I was thirteen, only to be bumped by the same guy again on the 3rd corner. He finally passed me and I trundled on with a 2 second penalty. Keeping my distance from him i waited for him to fly off the track, didn't take long!
From that point the race was clean for me and I quickly closed on the rest of the pack and was back into 3rd by the 7th lap. There was a 10 second gap between me and second so I was happy to settle for 3rd, but I noticed I was lapping about 3 seconds faster than the front 2. As the gap got smaller the front two pushed harder and I could see them running wide on a few corners.
Come the final lap out of the hairpin the gap was sub 1 second. I was hoping my pressure would make them mess the final chicane up. But it wasn't to be and we all cleanly Made it through.
Such a fun race once that beetle was a non issue.

Yup, usually stay a gear above. Whats funny is circuit experience actually tells you how to race fast and shows you to disobey the gear indicators.....so PD know its not entirely correct. I guess its what the AI uses and is the safest way for beginners.
That's exactly my thoughts. No problem with more cars though as long as they add more racing styles. I can't bring myself to play the missions as they bore the living crap out of me and the AI will be no different in the leagues. Leagues in Sport mode would have been great though.
Yep same here, I was hoping it was some sort of revamped championship for Sport mode. Got sad when I read it was single player campaign. I don't think I'll touch it unless it has good payouts.. can't stand racing with AI anymore.
And yeah, lobbies are missing a lot of things.
- No tuning restrictions
- No minimum weight limit
- No way to see partecipants' qualifying times
- No way to set a qualifying time limit (actually qualifying doesn't exist at all, game only uses free practice times)
- No way to turn off car repositioning
- No grid start with false start check
- No 'Require Tyre Type Change' option, not even "Minimum number of pitstops" IIRC.
Al things that were in GT6. I also miss online Clubs and event creator...
Edit: can somebody tell me how to crop a portion of a svg file? The "rectangle + Clip" in InkScape does nothing. I want a logo without the bottom text.

I have no imagination whatsoever, so I mostly do replicas. This is the Nismo GT-R who won the 2015 Bathurst 12h (I remember we even had a thread about it in the other forum)
Custom logos are a blessing, even if some people don't deserve to have early access; I'm talking about those who don't use tags, or have no idea how to handle a .png
Yeah I'm salty I can't upload decals
EDIT: forgot to say that the number plate is imperceptibly smaller in order to get covered completely when the game uses its own number plates in dailies/championships.
I tried to search for this livery earlier with no luck :( Looks amazing though!
I bought the game a few days ago when it hit half price in the UK PSN. Loving it so far. I actually think the more stripped back approach is for the better. Sinking hundreds of hours into offline racing and car tweaking doesn't hold the same appeal to me as it did playing the first three, and I'd feel obliged to delve into that stuff if it was on offer. Obviously I'm not saying it would be a weaker package if it were included, however. Just that building a game around the idea of getting people ready for online and out there racing each other, instead of inherently inferior AI is a great move I think.
I also feel as though they fumbled with the previous two, both in content and execution. The mixed standards of assets, and the inconsistent performances. They felt half baked. While this is a smaller scope of project, it feels totally even and polished. It's very impressive, and I'm enjoying it a lot. And the HDR is Godly, mind blowing.
However, I have one big issue. I think all the driving views suck. Cockpits cripple visibility, it's not 'more realistic', because your sense of awareness when really driving a car is colossally larger. Behind the car sucks for obvious reasons. Hood cam has no mirror. Whatever people call the one without the car has the mirror, has the awareness, but has this horrible perspective shading when cars are near you.
Which view is favoured on here?

You trippin mantis. My gr3 huracan is a pussycat. I just tried it with no tc and it was all good.
^ Via browser I can find it easily, the tags are "nissan","nismo","gtr"
The model is the GT3 N24 Shulze
I think the obvious choice is the "bumper cam", but I love the cockpit one even without half of the awareness the other has. I use the bumper to learn the track and then switch to cockpit, is not really that difficult to use in-race with the radar on. I'm just used to it.

I've got the digital without the scapes download and I'm at 61gb here.
Probably I should get a bigger HDD.
Hmm I think my download is over 70GB. That includes the extra scape dlc though.
I could just about squee...
Time for a much bigger ssd then. :)
Thanks for the responses.
Yeah, the game only shows liveries shared in the last 24hrs - making the search for tags worthless...
Not sure if linking it works, but it's here: https://www.gran-turismo.com/it/gts...lery/all/livery/1010895/1/7061714661840781328
But I just found a new decal to use in place of an old one, if you wait I'll upload an updated version in a couple of hours. Or simply follow me and you'll eventually see it in your feed (I don't usually post a lot so no worry about spam)
That's actually the Blancpain one made by someone else (which is very similar, just some different stickers!)
