Forza Motorsport 4 - General Discussion

[t.o.]

That would be an astonishing amount of cars to have detailed and modeled to that extent in such a short period of time.

Not if you outsource

 

[Diatribe777]

I'm thinking 40-45.

My guess is that you have the table of contents, intro, 2 page spread for each car, then a bio for Clarkson.

2 page spread is more classier and will hold more info, than 1 page per car.

Maybe so, but I wouldn't like to be the one to tell Clarkson we need you to do the voice over for 100+ cars.

I wonder if we will get a DEMO approx 1 month before the release date like FM3 and FM2 did?
This also would put a DEMO in line with the week of Gamescom, mmmmm?

^ Win.

Thanks to anyone who responded to my question. 'm going to take a deeper look into the game and such.

 

[Evian]

Someone knows the name of the outside firm that have maked the Autovista car models ?

I've serious curiosity, they have done a great job 👍

From what I understood he's not the only one who's going to do voice work for autovista. I thought they said the other guys were going to do some cars too. 3 guys, 35 cars a piece, that's over 100 cars right there.

They might have also taken bits and pieces from what they have said in the TV shows.

Very nice with the cockpit cam 👍

It looks Awesome very very nice:tup:

I cant remember if this video has been posted here but the car sounds are REALLY good.

 

[Luminis]

Yup, it has been posted around here somewhere (don't remember in which thread exactly), but the cars do sound very good indeed 👍

Hi there

Well, T10 stated that FM4 would release later in some countries, and Germany happens to be one of them. That's why they always say "Forza will start to release on..."

With FM3, we got it a bid earler, with FM4, we're on the receiving end, though. That week's going to kill me, especially considering that these forums will be flooded with info and pictures

 

[Hotspitta]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWW LOOK AT THE SLS!!!!!👍

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

This video confirmed 2 times of day for racing on the same track. Morning race and late afternoon race with sunset and twilight feel in the afternoon.

Oh yeah I forgot to post that.
Great news for sure. 👍 Still hoping for weather but I dont think its going to happen.
30-60 Autovista cars sounds about right. That would be between 5%-10% which is what I have been guessing for a while.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

Vinyls looks very nice with IBL 👍

Whoa this might have just answered our question from a few pages back. We were wondering if vinyls were going to be in the Auto Vista. I guess this means yes? Or maybe only on cars that have vinyls from the factory. And yes the vinyls do indeed look very nice.

Also yes I am sure a demo will be coming very soon.

 

[Watevaman]

Well, if I'm correct, the vinyls are vector-based which is why you can scale them up and down without causing artifacts, so I don't see why you couldn't do vinyls in Auto Vista if it's loading the same texture map as it does in the menu.

 

[GumShoe]

All I can say is, I can't wait to try out Forza 4, the visuals, handling, game modes and polish look to be pretty damn good. Just wish I had a Fanatec wheel

Same here. I guess I'll have to attend Gamescom this year again

It has been pretty much confirmed that Autovista will only feature stock "Autovista cars". Sorry.
(you will be able to change the color though)

I cant remember if this video has been posted here but the car sounds are REALLY good.

Well, that answers my questions from before. It still sounds like the "under-bonnet" sound, and not like an external sound, and you can hear the reverb colouration in the samples. Plus the pitch shifting is terrible, which interacts with the "reverb colour" in the samples in odd ways.
That distortion is also horribly done; it just needs toning down a bit in terms of range (i.e. later / louder onset) and actual destruction of the sound, it's far too jagged sounding, like microphone distortion instead of the intended in-ear distortion.

Maybe the Bizarre Creations guys are only doing new-to-the-series cars and re-doing a selection of returners? Still, at least their interior sounds will be good. Just sort out that horrid pitch-shifting!

Now to see what happens when the cars are modified...

A little more info about this car. http://www.thecoolist.com/bmw-art-car-by-jeff-koons/

I wonder if anyone has made this design in F3 yet? If not,I am sure someone will soon or will for sure when F4 comes out. I like that colorful paint job a a lot but that would be quite time consuming to make.

 

[zr1chris]

Why are white wheels still gray????? What is so difficult about fixing this? This has been a huge complaint in the FM.net community. Why cant they get this one simple thing fixed? That is extremely annoying!!

Is the same case that in GT the last ten years with the tail lights, maybe in Forza 5 or 6 or never

I think that would need two lives for make this skin with the vinyl editor , but in the community are many freaks trained for this job.
