here is a translated version of the description from the GTR NISMO website

So by the looks of this it is quite possibly a while of - depending on who's summer they are intending? Presuming Japan's?

Also I do not believe this will have any connection with the course maker as this is Nissan's thing not PD's :( and does not correlate to the course maker.

The car is out in Japan now and out in the US July 31 so this all should go live in a few months. So im really hoping the car shows up as DLC maybe as early as june. Its nissans thing but its using PD's tech and given the close ties it will be interesting to see what all comes of this

I might be in a unique situation here but to me this is the best possible news
 
Oh my, I cant wait, I am so very excited!!

So we can reasonably assume that every new Nissan equipped with this technology will be added in the game as DLC?

Right? :D


Or.... This Toyota?

Thanks ... I didn't dare to mention it... because it says GPS Data Logger ... now what's that?

It's possible to create a track from that data, yes. But if you look on the website, this is NOT a planned feature. Comments like this just give false hope, and results in people getting angry at PD for not implementing a "promised" feature which wasn't promised at all.

You should know I was already angry ... since the 4th of December 2013
 
The GPS data logger/visualiser is not related to the GPS track creator.

In a future update, we will add the GPS Visualiser. This is a feature that allows you to import Controller Area Network (CAN), used to regulate automobile systems, and GPS coordinate data from a real life car into Gran Turismo 6, and visualise the data as a replay in the game. The feature is planned to be compatible with the Toyota Motor Corporation’s CAN-Gateway ECU.

fair enough ... I agree ... still both share GPS data, which was my point from the start ...
(in older data loggers GPS data was absent)
 
wow another GT-R.... just ridiculous... bring another miata then ;)

As some of you know when the NISMO GTR was announced there was news you would be able to record performance parameters & GPS data to recreate in GT6. That system is called "Nissan Connect NISMO Plus" and Nissan has posted their first teaser of it today. While the footage did not show any in game shots of the GTR NISMO you have to imagine it will be available as DLC as soon as this feature goes live in June

I cant wait to test this feature out when I get mine July 31st!

I'm on the east coast but I will more than likely eventually be testing it out at leguna seca. I help Nissan organize their GTR events and they usually have a yearly driving day there. If they do this year I will test one of their NISMOs with the features. I can't think of any other US based track in the game they would use

Last year we did the F1 COTA track in Austin but that's obviously not in the game.....
 
Couldn't they do Indianapolis or is that too far East?
 
Indianapolis has a new layout since 2008. ;) That's technically impossible.
 
In June they said Ha Haaaaaa! Ha HA HA! In June they said as if they have just added seasonal racing events, shuffle races, sitting racing starts, course editing, in June they said Ha Ha Ha! Ha Haaaaaa! In June they said!! In June they SAID!
 
I can understand people complaining about multiple GT-R's.. but this one? All those duplicate touring race cars, make believe GT-R's... yes they can go away.

But this is a Nismo tuned GT-R! A car that could destroy most others lap times. An actual real life car by Nissan and Nismo, and a pinnacle of theirs. I sure do hope it comes soon :D

these are nissan news, not polyphony, but the connection is obvious."Nissan Connect NISMO Plus", like, "Toyota Motor Corporation’s CAN-Gateway ECU", might be the "GPS visualiser" intended to GT. it is not the same as the mobile phone gps but its possible that it generates new tracks or layouts in the course maker since it does record gps data. would be strange to not use it. its not an obligation nor a PD promisse, but GPS visualiser, data logger and course maker, work better toguether, the 3 complement each other, so makes sense to imagine them in the same update. separated they are far less relevant. we have to wait for more official info about them to be sure about anything more than our speculations.
 
There are many cool us tracks i'd rather have than willow... road america, infineon(not a very big fan, but) elkhart lake, auto club, watkins glen, monticello (ascari's us counterpart), cota, seabring, that one in alabama, and so on.

Actually, and I including myself made the same mistake/assumption this is also PD news too as the GPS visualizer is a GT6 advertised/promised feature - under "update" (bottom of page) http://www.gran-turismo.com/us/products/gt6/

Why do people keep thinking this technology is used for generating tracks? It's not. It's for taking a car to a specific race track and to log it's movements around that specific track. The GPS track generator, if it really exists, is different technology and a different feature.

Just because they're both logging GPS data doesn't meant both have the ability to then generate a track from it. They're different software.

- first, as i said, we all have to wait for official news to know something else then our own speculations.
- second, https://www.gtplanet.net/gt6-course-maker-gps-data/ : "...in another update we will add the possibility to generate a track by capturing the GPS coordinate data of a mobile app while you are driving that course. This GPS-generated tracks will be available in the game as playable content...". - if we "know" that will be possible to generate tracks with gps using a mobile app why would it be so unexpected to do the same with the gps visualiser if it also captures gps data? - dont you think that would be a waisted oportunity not to use its full potencial? (wouldnt be the first time for PD). i'm not saying that its official, i'm saying that its possible.
 
Because like I said, they're different features.

GPS Visualiser - Takes GPS data from a track and turns it into a virtual replay on an already existing track.
GPS Course Maker - Takes GPS data from (supposedly) anywhere and uses that data to generate a new track in game.

Why would they have two different features if they both were able to generate tracks? It makes no sense. Think of them like two different executable programs on your PC. They both use GPS data but do two different things with that data. They're separate apps very likely to come at different times. Just because one program/feature arrives using GPS data doesn't mean the other one will arrive as well.

i dont have the same opinion about the features differenciation and cant say nothing that havent said before.
so, we can agree that none of us know enough about any of them nor their release dates, its all speculation.
 
If you take a look at some of the track day apps, it really could create the track , but it doesnt create the enviroment.
So if the course maker was ready, it would be feasible , because you could set track width, asphalt colour, background trees, stands,,etc...
