It is always impressive to see you get to use those pattern styles over your car- the white and red coloring for it to compliment the Hive theme really gives it a KILLER look.
I haven't looked at how the livery editor in GT7 looks to know how much of it actually helps in custom complex designs like this, but I could assume that even if you had the most straightforward tools to use just to design your own patterns or pick some of them, it still would be very commendable to be able to mix and match the right stuff and the logos in the right places to make something memorable, just like with that Valhalla Audi TT from a few days ago.
Brought me a memory of when I used to play NFS Most Wanted and spending minutes in just trying to make my car look cooler. But definitely this level of customization is a very different level.
Thanks for the love.
As for the livery editor, it has great depth. Not only can you use a variety of basic shapes, letters, and numbers… but you can also use custom .svg files that you or the community upload. In other words, pretty much anything is available and if it isn’t already, you can create it yourself in Adobe Illustrator and then upload it for everyone to use in their more complex designs.
...Wow, that's actually quite the cool thing to hear about- probably I've been too much out of the modern console loop but I didn't expect that a GT game would have support for .svg formats since that's something you would definitely need a PC to either create or at least make sure you find.
But definitely explains how you could easily get to add custom logos in your liveries.
It does make me happy to see cool stuff like this done in GT- both because of how even cooler some cars can be wit hthe right paint job, and because its one of the few things I can appreciate from the game as a spectator [you know, haven't got my hands on a PS5 so far lol]
Even if you don’t have the means to create the files, there are already so many different things uploaded that you can easily craft a masterpiece like this still. They should be coming out with a PS5 Pro at the end of this year. Maybe that means the PS5 will drop in price, it’s at least easier to find one now… but it is NOT cheap.
