Brush experimentation


Just been mucking around with creating some brushes and playing around with the settings...

Redfrog Murcielago









Debuted the new Redfrog murcielago livery online last nite and had some pretty good racing. Put down my best A-class time on the Mugello circuit with a 1.56.

Finding now that i can't even bring myself to race the non damage modes, which is a pity because A-class is the only category with an expert mode. Would be cool to see maybe B-class and r3 done in expert as well. C'mon Turn 10, it's xmas! Grant me my wish :)

Forza 3 weekend session



It was A class expert again on the weekend, with full damge on and ABS and traction control turned off. Raced with Some great people (TurboWheels, Diesel, Javier, Nigeke) and also experienced some not so great (not metioning any names).
I even won a race on Laguna Seca by watching the second place car take out the first coming through the corkscrew on the final lap: I just scooted through the carnage an picked up a lucky win.

I have noticed a phenomenon emerging in multiplayer. Whilst there are some great racers who are a joy to race with, there is also a small segment of the community that are a little bit unpleasant to race against. It seems that playing too much single player has left them with the belief that they can only come first, and they will try to achieve that at any cost (usually smashing someone else off the track). I've never understood it myself: a crash can take you both out and instead of a respectable second you are instead sitting down the bottom of the leaderboard as you try to get your car back on the track...not to mention that you ruin someone else's game,..and remember folks it is just that...a game...so have fun and don't be so serious.

Wasn't really happy with the lighting so did a bit of a revision.

Forza 3 last nite







Had some great racing last nite in A class expert, and B class, on Forza. The competition was close and the driving was clean. Made for a greating racing session with some good driving and competitive racing. Propos to all those involved - was a heap of fun folks!
