It was a Nissan color and A BMW color on a Nissan is kinda crazy just saying.

Oh, interesting, can you get that color? Aventurine Red, I would be very grateful.

I noticed that Ford Epic Green is...uh...orange? I don't know if anyone wants to fix it, but I thought I'd mention it.

I wouldn't mind having Toyota's Underground, and the Ocean Gem color from the new 2025 Camry. I didn't see either of these in the spreadsheet unless they weren't listed under Toyota.

 

[Ruediger]

Why not add a color preview setup like this?
Using s google sheets script.

 

[I Am The Wolf]

Dude i thank you so much for this spreadsheet!!!!! I had been using a different paint spreadsheet but it didnt have silver steel metallic for dodge or chrysler and i have been searching for years trying to find someone that knew how to make that color. I wanted to replicate the color of my 2007 dodge charger in the game and i finally can. So thank you for this amazing spread sheet. From the few cars i have painted using this spreadsheet, i can say it pretty damn accurate on the colors. So again thank you for taking the time to make this

Anyone able to do Lotus's "Air Force Blue" please. Thank you in advance.

I haven't done this for a while, but normal H 059R - S 028R - L 040R is close to my eye and you can adjust from there. (Looks brighter in-game).

Hello everyone. I don't know if this thread is still getting updated, but was wondering if anyone could add the new Purple Sky colour for Porsche.

Just letting the guys that created this forum page know that,

"FINDING FORZA VALUES

Doesn't work anymore.

However, this works and uses the same principle as the before.

Unknown how important this would be and understand this might come across as nitpicking - The Pontiac paint code "Blue Green Chameleon" is actually called "Mystic Teal", it is called "Blue Green Chameleon" for the Chevys of that era. I have never seen a chevy with the same color however have heard there is a slight difference between the two versions. Unknown how important that would be for this spreadsheet but noticed it. Also noticed the color seemed to be off in comparison to how it looks in person to me (I have always argued that photos can never get it quite right due to the color shifting it does). I only have Forza on my Xbox so am not completely sure how to get that to my computer and unsure if it is allowed/helpful for me to post my own paint code I tweaked from the original to get it more accurate based off what I've seen in person but will still do it just in case.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Metal Flake
Color one:
Hue = 0.66
Saturation = 0.77
Brightness = 0.53
Color two:
Hue = 0.40
Saturation = 0.90
Brightness = 0.59
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Again I apologize if this is not allowed/helpful or if it seems nitpicky, you all are amazing at this paint matching thing and I am just lucky enough to own a Trans Am with Mystic Teal.

Hello everyone,

It's been a while since I was last active around here, particularly around the spreadsheet. Since my last lot of contributions in 2023, I've been keeping an eye on this thread now and again, seeing the general chatter, questions, and your requests that have come through. I want to make it known to you all that I am still committed to this massive project that I never would have believed would become as big as it has over the years. However, I can't push myself to focus solely on this; my personal life has changed drastically, and I don't have as much free time as I did back when this all began.

Despite my absence, I have been working on some newer colours behind the scenes, but I'm not fully confident in their overall appearance. As much as I would have liked to use Forza Horizon 5 to showcase these now rather than later, the major problem with the colour palette is most notable in the yellows and some oranges - there is a lack of saturation if you were to compare the same values in any of the earlier Forza titles that gave you the ability to fine-tune colours.
This was the biggest issue I had coming from a creative standpoint. However, I am hoping Forza Horizon 6 doesn't have this issue, even though the use of natural lighting doesn't seem to be available to use as an advantage.

The reason I'm bringing Forza Horizon 6 into the equation now is also due to the changes made to the livery editor. With new paint types looking to be available, including low and high flake options for the Metal Flake preset, as well as a new Candy paint, these may have to be incorporated to specify which of these is best suited for the Metallic, Candy, and Mica paints in the list. Yes, it's going to take some time to sort that out, but that's me slightly going on a tangent. As long as there aren't any outstanding issues with certain colours, Forza Horizon 6 is where I'll be recreating them. More importantly, I want to get the requests that have been left unanswered in this thread done first.

I hope to see you all again soon with some new colours ready to share.

So, I’ve been playing Forza Horizon 6 and I’ll be honest: the paints don’t need to be updated in the chart. The only difference is that in Forza Horizon 6, some of the metal flake paints just need to be set to the option that works (Metallic Low Flake or Metallic High Flake). For example, Zeus Bronze for Chevrolet works best as a Metallic High Flake color. There’s no need to redo every single paint on the chart, as I’m using it as we speak to paint my cars in Forza Horizon 6 and the colors all still hold up. If one metal flake version doesn’t work, just use the other one that does.

Yeah, I had a look at that myself yesterday, and it seems logical to leave what has already been done. It just seems to be a case of "trial and error" more than anything else. The Candy paint type just looks to work the same way as a Solid, Semigloss, Matte does, so I'm not entirely convinced it's worth using it if there are already "Candy" paints that were created using Metal Flake.
