Matt will never look good, atleast make it semi-gloss, and it would look like "a toothpaste" because the rest of the colors are very saturated, if you will desaturate them little bit, you will get away with making the black a bit brighter, therefore you will leave more room for the gMotor to do the shading on that color

Thanks Tosch, the colour used there is 23,21,21 with a very dark alpha channel. I wanted a matt look and had it a lighter grey before but Ronnie says it looks like toothpaste lol. So darkened it down a lot. Really don't want the black to shine, wanted a contrast between the black and the blue/purple. I've changed it to 30,30,30 and it looks a bit better. Any other advice? Cheers.

He has no idea what he is talking about. :D

A matt black car is not black. It looks grey.

Maybe carbon does the job.

 
I posted these pics some time ago in the URD thread. It's a 4096x4096 skin with a modified spec map (added some noise to the blue parts) to make it look like blue metallic. The matt black is rgb 30.30.30.





btw the two suns on the windscreen is something that ISI should fix. Looks like the specular and fresnel reflection are not aligned.

Trust me. It looked like thick poxipol glue paste or toothpaste spreaded on the car. ;)

It looked nothing like this Lambo.

We made some changes to alpha channel and it looks much better now. I could post a pic how it looks now. Give me a moment. ;)
 
The Nurburgring GP made me do it (Is this classed as editing? I know it is edited but I didn't edit the images, just comparing two stock ones? I couldn't decide...)

Thanks for all the feedback guys, learned some valuable things, much appreciated! More is welcome(and needed!) :cool:

I desaturated the blue and purple(10%, didn't want to do it too much and lose the colour, enough or more?) and darkened the alpha of the purple a bit also but kept the blue alpha bright. The black is now 30,30,30 with a lighter alpha channel, though still dark(90%). I did try some other shades and alpha channels but we decided on what you see above in Ronnie's post. Also took the purple away from the top of the rear wheel arches and replaced with black, just too much purple. I really liked the lighter shades of black/grey on the base colour, they looked great but it will appear on a future skin for sure.
 
A few I grabbed while playing around tonight. Loving the proper Matra/Stewart skin and having a blast with the FR3.5 2014. Cranked the AI aggression and skill up and had a brilliant race with the AI. They really can get tough with their moves if they get the chance XD.
