Camo Paint in GT6?

[The Chosen One]

Just spotted a guy tonight with a camo-painted ZZII.
Hack, or hidden feature?

Neither.... it's just a texture glitch that sometimes happens in the dark on cars painted with dark colours when they come close to the headlights. It can sometimes be seen in daylight too, but not so contrasting as in that pic.
I think the ZZ-II is one of the worst offenders for it.

It's neither. What happened is the guy drove the car a lot, it got dirty, and he just needs to wash it.

Nevermind, mistake by me, lol

I call bull crap, unless those white streaks are in fact bird crap

That's what dirt looks like on standard cars. I mostly drive standards and fairly used to it. It won't show in photomode locations but shows up when you enter a race or TT in arcade. Take it to the car wash and it will be gone by the next race. Standards with matte paint is where it's most apparent. The zzII, Subaru 22b seem to get it quickly

The only premium I've really seen it on is the zonda r's carbon paint.

I've never seen dirty car quite like that. Though, TBH, that's not a great picture, and it's dark, so who knows.

But dirty cars can look damaged or just splattered... or sometimes look a bit pixelish.

I still remember this from last year

The interesting thing about this is that in the race, the car looked... I want to say muddy, but it looked more like the paint job was bad. The photomode shows more detail of the splatters.

Here are more dirty elans...

I almost never see this because our club races with "visible damage off".
For 2 reasons:
1) exactly because we race a lot of standard cars, and standard cars OFTEN look silly or just wrong when they're damaged or dirty
2) I've heard that increases the chances of connection problems...

And I think that's usually what people go nuts suspicious that everything is hacks... when really it's just graphic flaws drawing incorrectly or lag, or whatever.

Zonda R, pattern was visible on track but not in the paint/wheel shop, photo mode locations or in the garage.

Car wash and gone

So, many may argue lol, but you must admit its true, on certain cars such as the zonda r, having a dirty car is basically the 'Hidden' Camo in gt6! haha, I kinda am right though...

That's because those cars aren't dirty, those are damaged, hence "visible damage".
