BRC 1955 - The Golden Age [Qualifying R5]

Starting to get really pissed at the bugs with saving in Automation. Just lost 4 hours worth of work on an I6 trim I am trying out......

Yeah, it is extremely frustrating that this feature doest work right, I liked the manual save system MUCH more than the current setup because you KNEW it saved, this is just a cross your fingers and hope for the best.

I agree. They should reintroduce that. They will likely do so, I think.

Or as the devs have said, at least fix the saving problem within the next update, which is the plan!

...aaaaaaaaaaand in the process of playing with the torque curve I've found a build that is far more reliable and significantly faster across every single track! Guess I should stop speaking too soon.

EDIT: false alarm people, for some reason I started building a new engine in 1965... really should stop speaking too soon eheh

Autosave is a great feature... but at the end I've always found more cons than pros. There's always a 'hidden scenario' that messes everything up, and that's why (usually) in every application it only works after closing the job (or every X minutes), no problems and no headaches.

Would love a manual save system, its getting hard to keep things from not bugging out when I make new (copy) cars and engines so I can play around with settings without losing my original setup.

Definitely like the large headlights, I tend to dislike the BMW type grill though. Nice car though! I really need to make a logo for my company, everyone that attaches company logos to their pictures makes them look so much nicer to me.

Thanks. I'm also not completely sure. I'm working on a grill layout that should be characteristic for the brand Astana, and widely applicable (just like BMW does), but haven't really found it yet. Thus far they are either too futuristic or boring.

This is the actual possible racer from MMM.

sooooo Im bad at photoshop, how do you cut the cars out so nicely?

There's a 'HideBuildings()' command you can use by accessing the command console (with the tilde key ~ if you use windows).

That being said, I've never successfully managed to create a proper transparency straight from that command. I always get the black background with it.

Works fine (transparency) when opened in GIMP. I don't know about PS or Paint, however.

This happend because you have to remove the FXAA from the options.
If you check my Znopresk forum page you can see that some cars have back background... that because I've activated it and I didn't know it was a problem for the transparency.

The file is automatically saved in .png format with transparent background. I usually resize it and crop it with Faststone viewer.

OHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Right. This I must try, will make it so much easier to photoshop things! Thanks for the tip Andrea!

Figured out how to do some "quick selection" and layer masking. Looks a million times better now
