For anyone thinking about contacting Ben about commissions, dont hesitate. He did a cracking job for me and turned it round really quickly
Cheers Dave mate - pleasure doing it!
Love how gimp suit came up in your search, glad it wasn't purple!
Quick delete of my search history… 🫣
@@Ben_LaBroca😂😂 knew it!!
Thank you! I finally was able to customize my car thanks to this video and I’m quite excited about it. I appreciate you 😊
Ah thanks Emily - really pleased to hear the video was helpful!
Very happy I found this! Great video mate, I will definitely try this out now
Dude I seriously needed a tutorial like this I’m trying to get into painting and I’m surprised I didn’t find this before. I’m gonna have to download the older version of Gimp but I might try with the new one provided this tutorial still applies for the newest version
This may be the best basic guide I've seen. I was stumbling through this the other day because every other video is overlong and has way too much detail.
Ah thanks Rob mate - delighted it’s proved useful!
Honestly did you figure anything else out?
I sure didn't. How do you open the grid?
Thank you sir, it was nuclear science to me but after this tutorial i can admit that its pretty simple :D
Great stuff! Thanks for this Benjamin
Haha look forward to seeing what you come up with fella!
Pretty good explanation of the basics.
Cheers Rich - and for anyone reading, Rich does stellar livery designs too so you should check him out on trading paints 👍
I needed this video. Thanks Ben
Ah no worries Russell. Whack me over a comment if you have any questions once you get into designing your scheme!
@@Ben_LaBroca thanks mate.
Great tuto, thank you!
Thanks Claire - hope it helped!
Great stuff! Dropped you a message on trading paints, would love to have a proper livery designed!
Interesting video Ben! Thanks for sharing. w
Cheers Walt!
Great video Ben. It's been a while since I made a livery but I should dust off Photoshop and have a play 👍
Cheers David mate - I find it properly relaxing, especially when too knackered for a race but with some time free of an evening! Let me know how you get on 👍
Hey Ben, when I try to paint fill sections of the car, it says cannot modify the pixels of layer groups.
id love to have some paint done
Very good video!! But I have one question, will other drivers see my livery?
Making liveries is fun.
Big time!
U wanna make me one then lol.
wanted to tell you great job! Thanks, im curious though when you do this how come your *the person making the livery designs, is the only person whom can see it? All the other racers still see the old truck design. Thanks again
simple, great and direct to the point tutorial, thank you so much for this. i have just one question.. can this be done on the "procreate app" on ipad do you think ?
procreate supports PSD files, so most likely - you ever try it?
My internet provider when they see me searching “gimp”: 🤨🤨
Hahaha!
Hey, I don't have an iracing membership but I made a livery for my friend who has iracing, in photoshop through his psd file. Should I save the psd as tga and what he should do with it?
Hi, banging video mate! for some reason i cant view the livery in the pain shop anymore, I used to be able to but i cant, happen to know why?
when exporting it, when i click on the car im painting theres no "car_" option
If you could please do a literal baby step video.
Once I down load the template from Iracing it opens on Gimp.
From here I am lost.
Great job, thank you. There is something similar for RaceRoom and ACC?
Thanks Carlos! Im sure you can use gimp for ACC, but I’m not sure on the file structures and how to get them in game. No livery editing in RaceRoom I’m afraid!
That's really cool , is there a way to get my company logo on my iracing ?
Hi Ben, I'm trying to do it. But the paint tools in GIMP are locked. I can't modify it. Perhaps, could you know why? Thank you in advance for any help.
Hey Carlos - sounds like you might not have the right layer selected perhaps? It’s tricky without seeing your screen, but check in the layer menu that you’ve selected the one you’re trying to paint / edit.
Remember I’m now open to commissions for livery designs. Leave me a comment below if you’re interested!
Hey I would be interested in getting a custom livery made.
@@Mr-Shiny-Shots Hey buddy - that's great. Drop me a message on Trading Paints and we can discuss what you're looking for - www.tradingpaints.com/profile/627097/Ben-R-Harrison
You still doing liveries? Got a project for ya!
do you need to have to use iracing to view what you have done to see if it looks right? I know years ago when I did a paint you had to have iracing open and in order to see what you had done, jump over to iracing and regen or something.
Hey man - you can use the “paint shop” in the iracing menu to view it.
Hi, just wondering what sort of price range for a commission please? Love your work and your race vids 👍
Hey buddy - thanks for getting in touch. Liveries cost £25 at the mo. If you drop me a message on trading paints I can tell you more about the process. www.tradingpaints.com/profile/627097/Ben-R-Harrison
Hi La Broca!! I tried to find your twitter account but it never popped up. Would love to have another way to talk with you about getting a custom livery designed that I could use on all cars if possible.
Oh hey man! Sorry yeah I got rid of my Twitter after it began to get ever more toxic as a platform. You can join the La Broca discord if you like? discord.gg/YfNSVnpb
Question, is it possible to use liveries from Trading Paints like this too? For example I'm into AI racing from time to time and it would be nice not to have the standard iRacing liveries.
Thanks a lot for the video!
Is there a way to make the light blue matt like you done it here?
Hey Erik! There is indeed - I haven’t done a guide but I learned what I know from this video: czcams.com/video/NdNC3spc3y0/video.html
Are you able to make and upload schemes for someone without having an iRacing account? I don’t play iRacing but some of my friends said they’d like me to try designing a car them.
Hey buddy - you can but it’ll get tricky previewing the design in the game. But yes theoretically possible. To do it you need your friend to send you the psd file of the livery template. Then you can design on it, and send it back to your friend when done for them to run in the game.
I get a "cannot modify the pixels of layer groups" everytime I get to the actual painting bit.
Hey buddy - first step make sure you have the right layer selected in the layers tool bar. Second step go up to select in the top menu bar and hit none. Hopefully one of those two things work but let me know.
You need to upload them to trading paints for others to see the liveries right?
That’s right Bales yeah! Cheers for watching buddy.
Very nice, but will it be visible for the other races in the server? Will it be uploaded to the server?
Hey Juan - great Q yeah. To be visible to everyone you'd need to upload it to Trading Paints. Then everyone else who uses that service (alot of users!) would see it. www.tradingpaints.com/showroom/filter/from=everyone,sort=popular,ad=DESC,pos=0
@@Ben_LaBroca Great! Thank you very much (I am already creating an account right now)!
Interested
When I try to fill, it only fills one square instead of all of the instances of that color. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
I think you might have the wire selected as the active layer
@@Ben_LaBroca yep, I figured that out! Thanks for the quick response and the great video
@@camkinsman1653 ah good stuff! You’re very welcome buddy - thanks for watching!
when i try to change color on the car it say active layer not visible what can i do?
Hey buddy - not sure I’ve had that before but one thing worth trying - make sure you hit the eye on the livery layers in the template, and highlight the one you want to edit by clicking it. You’ll need to deselect the “eye” of any above the one you’re editing in the list. The other thing to try is to make sure you haven’t got anything else highlighted, for example if you’ve created a custom shape etc. go to the top of screen menu and unselect whatever is selected. Let me know how you get on.
@@Ben_LaBroca when i load in the livery in photoshop i get a message : excessive number of xmp.photoshop.documentsAsncestors tags found : 10803. only keep the first 1000 values. dont know if that have something to do with it
Looking for a custom american flag/"real american" style for 360 sprint cars. think it can be done?
Hi buddy - I’m sure it can but it’s probably not one for me given the car. You’ll definitely find someone who specialises in those on the iracing forums though. Or on trading paints.
i only get 4 layers when i import to gimp
does iracing allow explicit imagery
OK I have no clue how you got the grid box, and the other color you changed.
I have no clue how to find the labels or anything.
I am 99% new to the PC stuff.
I must have spent 45 min only to get a basic template on GIMP and do nothing else with it.
Hey Ben, do you do liveries for AMS2 also?
Hey Adam buddy - I don’t unfortunately, only iracing for now!
@@Ben_LaBroca Hey Ben, I figured it all out on how to do AMS2 Liveries. In case you ever want to trade them. Or learn how.
Do you make custom logo's?
if its a helmet do you name the file helmet_ID or something else?
Very good question mate - I’m honestly not sure as never done one. Hopefully someone can answer who watches the video!
@@Ben_LaBroca I think what I said was right although it I'm not sure why it didn't work
I am very interested in commissioned livery work
This was too fast for me to follow. I’m a newbie. I need to watch a more beginner video! Once I do, I’ll be back to watch this again, Thank you!
Agreed, I felt like thus would not be hard, then I started and couldn't even open the little grid thing.
I can’t get any of this to work.
Yea so I tried looking you up on twitter and I can’t find you mate. Well when I type in your name it just says something went wrong… can you make me a paint scheme and I’ll be happy to pay you lol
nothing happens when i bucket fill on the car
Hey buddy - make sure you have “nothing selected” and that you’re highlighting the right livery layer in the layer menu
@@Ben_LaBroca Thank you, dumb self didnt even have the layer i wanted to color selected lol
@@ShawnKissane haha I do it all the time!! 😂😂
If you still do liveries can you get in contact with me
Sorry I got rid of my twitter
can you make a livery for me?
can other players see my custom made liveries?
Hey buddy - yes if you upload them to trading paints and they also have that software too. Lots and lots of iracers do!
@@Ben_LaBroca thanks for letting me know
@@Tommeh_Gaming no probs buddy - feel free to post any Qs and if I can help I will 👍
But this won’t show up for other people… so what’s the point 😂
You can upload them to trading paints and they do
Unfortunately, after following the steps to download Gimp, it appears the the newest version simply doesn't allow for the same access to the file as the older one used in this video. For example there are only three layers to the template downloaded from iRacing. This doesn't allow for the wire frame to be selected and renders the process pretty useless. Nothing against the author here, but I should've known this wouldn't work.
Hey buddy - so you just need to click the plus sign next to each layer group (spec map, turn off before exporting and paintable area) and it’ll expand out with all of the layers you need.
@@Ben_LaBroca Tried both Gimp and PS. Neither worked. I gave up...
@@e50teric hop in to the La Broca discord if you’d like more help!
Man the video is good but you are a terrible teatcher. you talk a lot about the obvious and them on the action itself you go really fast....
