Question Racing League looking for sponsors

[Woo482]

ok we just need permission off him to use it

Just send me a PM to let me know, Airforce_master.

 

[Fireproof]

i just asked him

Here's a little shot of the finish line set up. I kept the spectator stands for that. The start line will be similar, but with TV towers instead of stands.

Shows a few more of the sponsors too. Cheers for them all!

few more pics on my blog too.

Looks quite good

I could still use a few more square logos for the balloons:

I assume those are either 256 or 512 pixels in size, Correct? I want to be sure I know the exact size first.

 

[wehaveaproblem]

Exact size doesnt matter, Sly. All that is important is that they are 1:1 ratio. The higher the res you set, the crisper they will look. But as a performance rule, 512x512 look excellent, 256x256 looks perfectly acceptable too. The boards are 20m x 20m. Plus you will pass them travelling hundreds of m/s, so I doubt you will even see them really, so not worth going bigger than 512x512.

Well, you will want to set up a fixed viewpoint (using CTL-F1) to get a TV camera-view of the flybys, and you'll get to see them then. As well as hear the sonic boom.

is it too late? sorry I got busy trying to make some money so my entry is a bit late....

 

[wehaveaproblem]

Andy44, good idea actually, I might do that eventually. Although, I was plesently surprised just how much detail you get to see as you pass through the gates at 350m/s...

HiPot, not too late at all mate. You will see I have you in the screens already, I just ripped the texture from one of your addons. I shall keep the square one I ripped for the balloons and add the new one to the signs. Cheers!


I'm still happy to take other new ones from anybody too.

Help me out, what do you think looks better... angled boards, or parallel boards?
Parallel makes it more attaractive and 'race' like from both directions, but angled means you see a little more signage as you pass.

look at earlier pics and compare to:

 

[Woo482]

I think Angled boards look better

 

[SlyCoopersButt]

Perhaps both? Like the ones on the first half of the runway are parallel and then the rest beyond the stands are angled to give pilots and the fan stands a better view.

Cheers Woo, my trouble is I like both... so yeah good thought, sly. I thought about something like that. I shall give it a go tomo and see how it looks. cheers.

 

[Dig Gil]

I prefere SlyCoopersButt's idea.

 

[wehaveaproblem]

Yeah I've actually gone for that one. Straight up to the stands, then angled. Looks good I think. Just deciding on the start line set up. But balloons are done as well now, with more signs.

 

[Kaito]

If its not to late, I have a logo for you:

 

[wehaveaproblem]

Looks nice. If i include it as it is, it will have to be repeated on the billboards. It looks best if have/can you make a rectangular one with 4:1 ratio. But I can use this one if you like, no probs.

 

[Kaito]

Right now its 400x300. What should i resize it to?

 

[wehaveaproblem]

The signs are either square or rectangular as you can see in the pics. I can use what you have for a square board, although it will gain 100pixels of height. if you want a billboard it should be 4:1 ratio (eg 1024x256). Although as you may be able to see in a pic, Orbex's logo is like yours, so his billboards repeat. If you don't mind that, then I can use the one you have posted. Your choice.
