Here is a rough preview. It's not even a months worth of progress. [Clickety Click]
I have a rough understanding of 3D concepts due to school and OG help from Nobby on teaching me basic concepts back in the day. I'm learning something new every time I work on the mod
I'm a beta tester as well. In addition to beta testing I'm making my first car mod. An Acura Integra Type R with a JDM front end conversion (what I drive in irl haha)
Would love to hear some news on it. I saw that it had moved to turbo duck but couldn't really find info.. Its alive? Any info would be interesting, Audrey thanks!
Yooo it’s been a phat minute. Hope y’all are doin good. Saw that test drive is makin a comeback which is so dope. Cant wait to see what they come up with
You can post any picture taken ingame. It doesn't matter if you take the picture with the ingame-camera or only "fraps" a screenshot while driving.
Rules:
- Every month has it's own theme under which condition the picture should be taken - Pictures can be reworked/enhanced with Photoshop or similar programs but without adding any "foreign objects". That means feel free change colours, add effects, or whatever else you can think of, but the original TDU2 car and at least most of the elements of the original background/scenery should still be present in your final image (btw: its not restricted to the original cars, you can also take pics of modded cars) - The picture has to be uploaded with the attachment-function. Please do not post external links - The picture must be 800px wide and can be between 450px and 800px high - You may not compete with a picture that has already been posted in the screenshot-gallery. And you are not allowed to upload the picture that you are competing with to the screenshot gallery until after that months competition has ended. That means you sometimes will be "forced" to photograph some new pictures - You can change your chosen picture within the month, until we close the certain thread, but only one picture per user can compete - The voting takes place during the first week at the following month - Every registered user can vote for the pictures except for their own - The monthly winner has the right to choose the next months theme and the winning picture gets his rightful place in the "POTM Hall of Fame"
At the end of the year all pictures of the month get into a final voting-pool for "Picture Of The Year". The POTY-Winner will get a special award added to his profile/avatar.

Happy photographing and have a nice and fair competition.
Great idea Donnie, while im into this theme i can see us getting a lot of similar pics same shot just a dfferent car
@asg..
"CLIPPING" the apex the name explains it exactly... a "perfect corner" is when you start on the outside, come in to clip the apex of the bend then move to the outside edge again when leaving a corner. Out, In, Out.. which in turn means you turn less to take a corner, meaning you travel faster ( you scrub speed when you have to turn, so turning less scrubs less speed) taking a corner as straight as you can, means taking it as fast as you can.

Well this is slightly disappointing, but i will not be partaking in this months comp. Not only am i currently on holiday away from home in another country. All the possible photos i brought along with me do not contain the theme.
Cant take a corner at 5mph ?? or even drive up to the apex and stop ??
ALL photos should be done in offline mode. otherwise when you pause the game to take the shot, the car is still moving. SOOOO if the car is frozen, what difference does it make how fast you are going ??
hehe just come up to a corner nice n slow, get your positioning exactly how you want, then take the photo. no one said you have to approach it at 150mph

Well, Nobby, you might have guessed my reference I am using. I will post one when I get back on as I haven't had time to play this week..... I think I have a shot this month.
