    3 cars to go, and then suits/gloves.
    Try out the
    2021skins.rfcmp above and install with mod manager
    Will be a new Class "Formula Pro 2021"
    unfortunately in the class selection it Shows the Team badge for the first alphabetically team, Alpine, Haven't found a way to make a set badge. Seems like all other downloaded cars are the same.

    thanks, glad I haven't made any stupid mistakes.

    This one is taking ages.
    but I think it turned out pretty well

    The colour seems fine to me. Maybe it's one of the layers being problematic ?

    @Smeghead I'm not a fan of most of the F1's, and some of them dont fit well on a Fpro, but you have done a great job in making these liveries, with great respect for accuracy and high detail. And love your effect with metallic where needed. Thumbs up!

    I chnaged the Image, The one left is what I went with. I was working off a set of images from the launch and the colours looked very different. I went with a more red colour that matches outdoor images better, but it's very hard to get an exact colour match.

    Does using the colour picker from a picture work ? Could it help ? I don't know if there are colour codes available otherwise

    Yeah, in Photoshop I use color picker from reference images but because of shadows and highlights it's very hard to get an actual colour. Then you have to tone down the colours as they appear brighter in game, and then using the region map you can assign different paint types with lacquer shades and metallic effects.
    End result is I just play around till it looks about right to the best photos I can find.

    Yeah, no wonder I would struggle heavily with all of that work. I'm not even used to drawing on my Surface either. Can't play with the shades, shadows and colours properly enough to give depth to a drawing, which is why I remain on paper :D

    Wow, awesome job! I am very green when it comes to this stuff and installed the skins through the game. Is there a way to have ONLY your skins show up and not the stock ones? Is this related to installing with mod manager? Thank you for any help

    Yeah, Here's a link to a rfmp file which has the currently completed skins. Just install through mod manager and you will have a new carset "Formula Pro 2021" which separates them from the originals.

    I think I'm losing the will to live.
    So much effort for such an ugly livery.

    Lol, they should have done something loosely based on the Canon style livery!

    I must be doing something wrong (since I have never used Mod manager before). The car shows up as Formula Pro 2021 but when I select it and go to race all the stock liveries are mixed in with it. :(

    What folder do I need to put your file in originally? Sorry for the trouble.

    Hmm, haven't had that issue. Check your opponents, probably clear the lot and then add formula pro 2021.
    Sorry not near my PC but it sound like something along those lines.
    If you've got them showing up at all then it's probably installed correctly.
    When I've got all cars done I'll try to upload to steam workshop, though that seems to be less easy than it should be

    @Smeghead is right, you need to remove the others. Otherwise, you can do like me and create a new mod called whatever you like and there you select the Formula Pro car and untick the others :

    You do that using the Mas Utility Tool in Support/Tools

    I tried figuring out the Mas utility for a while but had no luck, I will try again when I have regained some patience :)

    Would it be asking too much for a Marlboro Mclaren Honda livery? Would glady donate some coffee bud.

    Thank you guys

    just checked on my pc, for me every time I installed it, I just got these cars as my opponents by default. I'm guessing You've got the regular formula pro opponents selected as well.
    in session settings go to opponents and "remove all" then just select 2021 under opponent filter and it should add just the cars from the pack.
