Hey all.
R6TE and me got a nice idea, so all you repainters out there can have your favourite type of competition- showing off your skills with a masterpiece repaint.
This is opened to ALL people who want to join, no matter if rookies or pro repainters.

Rules.

First of all, the repainted car MUST be a STOCK AQUASONIC (This makes things way easier for newbie repainters, and gives lots of space to make 'art on wheels' to pros as well).

You must specify what you based your car on (if it's related to some theme, etc.). If the car really represents the theme you chose, bonus points are awarded.

NO REMAPPING, NO REMODELING, NO USING GAMESPOT OR nVIDIA GeForce'S BODY (which is slightly remapped). This will lead to DISQUALIFY such cars.

Then, you CAN'T use add-on parts such as spoilers, spinners, new wheels etc. Just the original parts that come with the stock Aquasonic.

You can do everything you want with parameters, but your car will also be judged by that. Using stock Aquasonic, stock Gamespot or stock nVidia parameters automatically makes judging SKIP the parameters section. (That will mean that 0 points will be awarded in all parameters-related judgement fields)

Points.

Each car gains points for these reasons:

-Good quality repaint
-Absence of bugs
-Good relation with the chosen theme
-Fair parameters (according to the car class, no limit for that)
-Interesting-to-drive parameters

Each car loses points for these reasons:

-Basic repaint
-Bugged parts
-MS-Paint looking repaint (I DON'T MEAN YOU CAN'T REPAINT IN MS-PAINT. Just that your car shouldn't look like a monocolour one with some Paint-drawn lines and so on)
-No relation with the theme, or badly-realised theme (e.g. a Call Of Duty car with just some random CoD decals thrown in and a basic mono-colour paint, plus stock Aquasonic rims)
-Parameters with no weak spots (e.g. super-railish handling, 4WD and 4WSteering, 70 MPH and super accel)

Cars must be posted in this topic including:
-Screenshot
-Name
-Chosen theme
-DL link
-(optional) Car specifications

Good luck you all repainters out there! :)

EDIT: It's possible to use Cat's TC4 template for having blank windows (Aqua's stock ones are covered in drawings...). It's available here on RVL, in 'Parts and Texture Shop', under the topic named 'Templates and Paintkits'.

lol as if it was your idea XD, it was in our preoccupation.
And when I see the rules, all most of the things here are what I told in the offtopic (the theme, one car that must be chosen...) so don't tell "R6TE and me got a nice idea", because it's not the reality XD

I will not be able to participate to this competition due to school

Halo, I didn't even SEE you made such a reply. Really.

Oh, and @Venom... Well, I didn't know that such a topic was made in 'Offtopic' section... This was just a coincidence...

Why? All people have access to them, thus it gives no one an advantage.

Again it gives no one an advantage. Everyone has access to the G.T.P-Pack.

Do parameters really matter? The thing is that this is a repainting competition, not a paraming one, we already had that. Experienced people have an advantage here already.

Nope, not joining.

Well, I simply thought it was a creative idea, speaking about the themes...

As for GeForce's body, this will make things EVEN easier than they are... (separate mapping for left and right door...)

For addons, maybe people don't know how to install them...
Or maybe, simply think: do _ALL_ revolters really know what GTP Pack is?

Finally, parameters. Why not? I'm simply sick of railers, and I guess the community is as well.

I participate ! It's a pity that the parameters also count, because I am bad in this domain... But it is an additionnal challenge.

Don't worry dude... I'm completely lazy when it comes to parameters, and even I found something interesting. And with your paint skills, only good things can happen!

EDIT: @burner/R6TE: any idea how the winner will be chosen, or when the competition ends? those may help ;)

Well, I PM-d ElvenAvenger (which is very strict, speaking about car quality, and parameters too :P ) and he said he will be the judge...

For deadline, let's say, ehm... 2 weeks from the post creation?

Click pic to DL.

Name: Got Rice?
Theme: Ricer cars (with random paint-made 'vinyls', LED lights, MASSIVE exhausts etc).
Specs: Super-rail, due to MASSIVE downforce (hey, ricers usually put OMGWTFLOL large spoilers on their cars. I couldn't, due to comp rules, but I recreated that in physics): however, it just goes to 36 km/h, which is around 21-22 MPH. Rookie class, RWD.

Then Elven will judge the cars.

I am in!! This is going to be my first repaint ever. :)
Btw, what's a GTP pack?
And how do you make a car box? I am really new to this. :)
And i don't know photoshop, so is it okay if i use powerpoint? :) It's not going to be a good one :(
Whenever i use black colour, it gets transparent in the game. Any solution to that? :(

1)Making carbox is easy, you have to add in the parameters (under the hull line) a line and you have to type: ;)TCARBOX "cars\nameofthecar\carbox.bmp"
and you have to include inthe car folder a bmp file that you want to use as carbox
2)i have used power point for make the "devon" writing on my GDM devon CR but if you have also paint i think it's better use it,anyway i recommend you to download programs like gimp or photoshop,you don't need to learn it's very easy to use them ;)
3)about the trasparency
Re-volt thinks that the pureblack (rgb000) it's transparent...try to color it in a black a bit mor bright and you'll se it it works!

Pranav, the GTP Pack is a pack of cars. They are basically stock cars with an added rear wing. Look for them on RVZT and you'll understand what I mean.

Venom, your car looks quite nice! Loved the mouth :P

OH MY GOODNESS. I wish I could repaint that good. Wow man, you have talent.
And GDM, that's nice! Very Jap-looking xD

EDIT: after DLing Pranav's entry I realised a couple of things:
-incorrect packaging (must be CARS\CAR FOLDER\CAR FILES)
-RAR FORMAT! <- on RVZT it's not accepted
-some bugs... Pranav, I REALLY recommend you to paste the black areas from Cat's template over your car, because such a thing, with that enormous wheel bug, has simply no sense. XD
-TopSpeed of 50 and still AMATEUR CLASS? Shouldn't it be Pro class instead? (RATING set to 4).
