Nope, it still won't work. Same issue as before. Here is how they appear in the Upload app :

Notice how there's no name of game above my gamertag.
The weird thing is that if I go to "View game hub", it shows the proper FM6 hub and if I look at the notifications, they show the FM6 graphic as well...

Ah, as the game is early access it won't work that way. You'll be able to get them once the general release date arrives. I was referring to grabbing photos via fm.net

As much as I like PCars GT cars and think that racing with a wheel is much better there.... My god this game is lovely.

I forgot how much I missed my car porn, car collecting and variations in racing and career.

A few issues for user options that I don't like that don't make sense but in general it is really a cool game

Free Ford GT is in your message center under gifts and not the massive free car list.
Strangely, the gift one does not unlock the achievement for owning the 2017 GT. I had to buy a second GT because I am an achievement hooker.

I feel like my game is missing a number of bonus cars, however. The are several F&F cars I haven't seen. For example, I have a Hellcat Challenger but no Hellcat Charger even in my game, and I thought I saw that car on the list.


You need to play the demo and then download the GT from your message box.

Ah ok thanks, i have seen a few 'Gift' messages show up, i have not looked about, just jumped in racing!

Feeling like this guy right? :)

I sure am :D

I got the Lotus F1 car & then the car came up in the next prize spin & i was hoping i wouldn't win it, i didn't i won £1m instead! which brings me onto the next question, i decided to get the top mod pack for £300,000 (free money & what-not) & i got the Breaking Expert Mod this is going to be my default Mod, very useful in the wet i have found, but is there a list of what all the Mods are anywhere?

this game is out already? amazon lists it as september 15th release?

Ultimate Edition owners can play the game now.

This is the best driving game i have ever played, there have been others better in certain area's but let downs in others, as a package this is king imo.

Photomode subtitle? I'm going to put one together quickly. "Welcome to the Dark Side" is all I've come up with referencing night racing haha. "Photos so good no sexy lady can divert"??

Forza 6 Photomode OT : My world is rain and darkness.
Forza 6 Photomode OT : The camera adds 10 years.
Forza 6 Photomode OT : 1/60fps goodness

;p
 
Just finished my hour session with the game. Feels really good, also lovely to look at in photo mode. Sucks I got a 3 hour night class in a few hours, hopefully I get to play more when I get back home!!

Its hilarious to watch youtubes of different driving personalities taking that thing for a spin. The hoops and howls and long solemn pauses of respectful silence, followed by the driver emerging slowly and reticent from the cabin like some pasty newborn, half-teary eyed, half-wide-eyed with wonder and awe, drool still lingering on their chins.

Some examples, along with plentiful info:

Chris Harris on Cars: McLaren P1, the road and track test.
McLaren P1: evo Review
Top Gear: McLaren P1: The Widowmaker
So good! Can't help but grin ear-to-ear watching and listening to them react to the P1 and not only how well it performs, but how well it takes care of the driver too. What an amazing, amazing car.

My first custom car design! It's for the 2009 Honda S2000. You can get this design and a bunch of pixel art decals by searching for EastX. (And yes, I really need to figure out photo mode. Dang those dark photos.)

Did you make those Minecraft liveries Noobcraft? Really smart. Also props to Jube3. I'm curious, how does one make these in the game, I would like to see a video tutorial purely from an artistic standpoint.

EDIT: @Noobcraft, ahhh see you did, nice.
Yeah. The game gives you an array of shapes/letters/numbers to work with and gives you the option to color them as you please. To save on layers (there is a limit to how many layers you can place, it's something like 7000 per car iirc) my Minecraft liveries are optimized to use as few layers as possible before they are placed on the vehicles. It's as easy as copy pasting vinyl groups onto the vehicle, but keeping the layer count down can be difficult. The dirt sides are almost 1:1 to the vanilla Minecraft texture, but the grass is original because I lost patience.

Also here are some pictures from my online shenanigans today.

In case there was any doubt, tire deformation is definitely in.

Just cleared the Introduction Races (Average Drivatars as I have not completed my Wheel Stand yet) and I can't wait to play it more tomorrow!

Mario Maker download time!

Nice, they look great, something I would love to try but alas, my brother moved out the house, along with the XOne. It's one feature I wish GT had, but I'm not too concerned I always like seeing what others create. My friend made some real nice ones in Forza 4 and Horizon... JMC Designs.
 
Really like the driving but I'm still a bit bummed out by the force feedback, the demo seemed so promising.

FWD and AWD are fine for the most part, better than ever before but RWD are often so light I can barely feel the tyres, by the time there's any weight to the wheel I've pushed it too far and left sliding all over the show.
 
So when can we pitch titles for OT2 since OT1 is pretty much set in stone?

Edit: Cuz I ws thinking,

Forza Motorsport 6 |OT| Gone in 60 frames per second.

Why does that sound so familiar?

Uhm so what the fuck is it still with the completely shit auto tuned cars when you buy them for the career and where the hell can you see the restrictions for a career race? I'm so damn tired of downloading a cool tune setup just that the game tells me that it is illegal.

If you have luxury cars in A class then make that shit A 700 and not something retarded like A 660 max which no one will ever make tunes for cause why even bother. Ugh career really sucks hard.
 
Damn you Thrustmaster send me my replacement tx powercable, I suck with controller :(

The game is amazing though spent a little time in it today, won 1m cr on my second spin all was good :)

After so few were in FM5, VERY pleasantly surprised how many cars I've bought so far have had the full Forzavista treatment. Didn't exactly expect to be able to open the hood on the 850CSi, so that was pretty damn cool.

Another quick livery up for share, having so much fun creating stuff. I had the hotwheel logo already made so I hopped on the hellcat and remade the ForceFriday Uber/hotwheel livery.

Also a WIP minecraft skin I need to finish, gotta get the logos and find the final car to put it on.

Well I finally got this downloaded. This game is good. Miles better than Forza 5.
I've already had a few great races against the AI with the aggression turned off, the AI have actually been fun to race against. I'm loving the physics, especially the AWD cars. Feels a lot better than Forza 5.

I could do without the hand-holding at the start though, but that's a minor complaint. It would be nice to have separate audio controls for your own engine sounds too. I'm having a blast so far.
 
So is this game way more sim for me to have fun with it? I'm a casual racer fan, am I better off sticking to fh2 or can I still play casually with fm6 without having to spend hours tuning cars?
