Thanks Diablo! You're right, it was from one of the final missions in the LS area of GTA;San Andreas, an epic police chase in which two biker cops drop their donuts and say it! It was one of my favorite missions, but the highlight was driving through the Sprunk sign, changing the slogan from "A taste of things to come" to "A taste of [.....] come" Just that Rockstar mentality. I love it.
 
Anyway, I discovered the Forza Gallery has a storage limit, and because I paste my images via direct URL, in order to not make my shots disappear one by one, I need to save them all and upload them manually. This takes time, so let me take you through some behind the scenes, shots I've made that never made it onto this page.
 
But first, special mention to my new favorite car in the game:
 
[ATTACH]27846[/ATTACH]
 
Yes, it's a Raptor. But because I'm a showoff, it's a Horizon Edition. Because it's even better.
Why do I love it so much? Because it can do everything. Yes, I said it. Everything.
Being much faster than everyone on an asphalt circuit? Got that covered.
Owning everyone in a Rallycross Race? Yep, done that.
Full sprint trail with some asphalt in it? Yes, did that.
Beating Audi R8 and Ferrari 488 GTB on the Goliath Circuit? Oh, ofcourse I did that.
And earning 355k credits and 7 levelups from that same race? Yeah, absolutely.
Being able to park within the lines in a city parking space? ....
 
[ATTACH]27847[/ATTACH]
 
What, did you expect anything other than success?
And while we're at it, but this is personal, with the better front bumper and the spare wheel storage in the trunk, it looks beast too. Combine this with the Horizon Edition ADV.1 wheels and the stellar paintjob and this can, imo, only be described as a beast on wheels.
Anyway, I really love this car, it's more versatile than any American car I've ever known, while still being as patriotic as a US car can ever be. It's a brilliant car, sorry, truck!
 
Anyway, on to the oldies. Remember, this has all been made in week 1 but never posted!

Giving the GT12 some rest after a heavy off-road session.
 
[ATTACH]27849[/ATTACH]
 
I really loved the R8 back then.
 
[ATTACH]27855[/ATTACH]
 
I personally think the 458 is overrated (it's beautiful, don't get me wrong, but it's a bit "basic", like "once I get enough money I buy a 458 and I'm the God of supercar territory" mentality). Personal touch, but still, Ferrari's are brilliant. But I miss the NA sound of the 458 once you get a 488 GTB. The middle road it is, via this 458 Speciale.

And I'm off to do some other things, this could be my last update in this thread for a while.

You could also say it's from the movie "Bruce Almighty". If you don't know it, I recommend you watch it :)

And we start again in the rain, this time in a classic M/AMG duel.
 
[ATTACH]27837[/ATTACH]
 
Then I found some shots I haven't shared to my gallery so they're "old" (made in the first week of me having the game) but still, I hope you like them :)
 
Some air in the 155 Q4 DTM.
 
[ATTACH]27836[/ATTACH]
 
Sidewayz in the Falcon XR8 (yes, I really love it, okay)
 
[ATTACH]27835[/ATTACH]
 
And that other Falcon, which I honestly don't really like, which is down to the fact it has that amazing looking brother. No orange stripes can help you there, mate :)
 
[ATTACH]27834[/ATTACH]
 
Back to present: Me completing all the festivals, events etc left me with a lot of credits, so I bought the Centenario, which is nice, but this thing is even more amazing (personal reasons, Centenario is seriously fast): the mighty P1.
 
[ATTACH]27833[/ATTACH]

So I did a lot but didn't photograph all of it :( I basically finished the game, having all my festivals to level 5, now it's down to getting all my favorite cars, one by one.
 
Here's some randoms.
 
I just love the lighting in this one.
 
[ATTACH]27825[/ATTACH]
 
Evo vs Subie :)
 
[ATTACH]27832[/ATTACH]
 
Because the Evo X is my favorite car, I built two of them. A rally car, as seen above, and a drift car.
 
[ATTACH]27831[/ATTACH]
 
And who doesn't love a Rocket Bunny '86.
 
[ATTACH]27830[/ATTACH]
 
Then I made a very fast Reliant!
 
[ATTACH]27829[/ATTACH]
 
Which went well....
 
[ATTACH]27828[/ATTACH]
 
Then it was wet, and I happened to be driving the bright orange GT-R, to give some color to this bad weather.
 
[ATTACH]27827[/ATTACH]
 
Oh, and here's the '17 GT-R compared to the "old" GT-R. A great shot, imo.
 
[ATTACH]27826[/ATTACH]

That, I can explain, has to do with the fact I got the '13 Clio first, which didn't look all that bad in the Williams colors :) Hence I painted the Williams in the '13 Clio's factory color.

Less activity here, I'm terribly sorry. I'm in Germany right now so I have to use my iPhone to post pictures. And as reliable as smartphones are, this is attempt #4 so let's hope it works this time.
Also, this is the final bunch, and I won't be reunited with my Xbox until Saturday so I guess you will have to wait for the next ones ;)
 
RX-7 speedbuild and nice paint...
 
[ATTACH]27806[/ATTACH]
 
A great opportunity for a nice sunrise picture.
 
[ATTACH]27814[/ATTACH]
 
Epic driftz in the M2. A very nice car, I'm glad they added it in FH.
 
[ATTACH]27813[/ATTACH]
 
Parked it in front of a house and imo it blends in nice.
 
[ATTACH]27812[/ATTACH]
 
So I was in Surfers Paradise and my Yarra Valley festival had received an upgrade. Which means a mini-roadtrip. And I took the, in my eyes, perfect roadtrip car: a CTS-V. Which can, for instance, drift.
 
[ATTACH]27811[/ATTACH]
 
I tricked some people in thinking this image was real. Only the watermark gives it away....
 
[ATTACH]27810[/ATTACH]
 
I just so love the agressive look of this car. I think it's amazing. Also, this dam is very nice. And asks for further inspection.
 
[ATTACH]27809[/ATTACH]
 
So after some inprobable off-roading muscle car action I visited the bottom of the dam.
 
[ATTACH]27808[/ATTACH]
 
So, while I'll continue having fun in my vacation in Germany (greetings to all the German TDuck users), I will resume this thread. I hope to see you then!

I honestly thought this was one of those 'here's my Jag in Forza, second pic shows my real life Jag'
 
That second shot is, in terms of realism, the best game shot I have ever seen.

I should respray mine in red...
 
Got myself a new Jag... (More pics here )
 

 

Got new Ferrari 575M Maranello
Love this car :)
 

I'n on my phone at school so I can only share the highlights. Night and early morning shots of the Vulcan and AMG GT S.
 
[ATTACH]27277[/ATTACH]
 
[ATTACH]27278[/ATTACH]
 
Also, I finally made my first skin. It's different to TDU2's system, but with the preset logo's it works fine. Hope you like it! I'm not sure if it already pops up in the design editor.
[ATTACH]27279[/ATTACH]

We return with new photo settings.
 
Some mad slides in the rain in the Z06, a great car.

This awesome thing. The LM Rally Fighter.
 
[ATTACH]27802[/ATTACH]
 
For some reason I thought it was fun to "blend in" with the AI by driving realistically in this chilled Ghibli. Turns out Drivatars are a pain in the *** if you try that.
 
[ATTACH]27801[/ATTACH]
 
Want Drivatar rollovers? Do a cross-country race in the "Extreme Tracktoys" class.

This is how the Cherokee SRT was born :P
 
[ATTACH]27799[/ATTACH]
 
No words needed. The SVR is just so beautiful.
 
[ATTACH]27798[/ATTACH]
 
I bought this Ranger (on the auction) and if you want fun, keep the AWD drivetrain and swap the engine with a 6.5L V12.
 
[ATTACH]27797[/ATTACH]
 
Happy Ranger is happy in the forests.
 
[ATTACH]27796[/ATTACH]

Thanks a lot Diablo, I'm glad you like it because that shot turned out very well :)
 
Yes, me too got the new car pack. With this epic Huayra BC.
[ATTACH]27788[/ATTACH]
 
I accidentally drove my Jeep into a drivatar in his 570S, when I found out it can be used as ramp :D
 
[ATTACH]27795[/ATTACH]
 
My new Jaaaaaaag (sorry, I have been auction hunting and got some great deals (I saved almost 500k on like 14 cars :o )
 
[ATTACH]27794[/ATTACH]
 
Also got myself two M4's of which I converted one to a Liberty Walk.
 
[ATTACH]27793[/ATTACH]
 
Another possible spoiler alert:
 
 
 
Wanted a rally race, got 12 rally cars, not a single dirt road in the race. But rain made it still challenging.
 
[ATTACH]27791[/ATTACH]
 
Night sky as we do some massive slides in the SVR (who knew a 2 tonne SUV was good for this?)
 
[ATTACH]27790[/ATTACH]
 
And finally, early morning streetrace, winning a Buick GNX.
 
[ATTACH]27789[/ATTACH]
 
See you soon with more shots!

Sounds + drive is very cool indeed :) Thanks!
 
Some shots of last night, in which I did some wet racing in the Tesla and Eau Rouge, built a 458 Liberty Walk and met a LaFezza in it, and barnfind hunting + crosscountry cruising in the TTS.

Hey all,
 
Got FH3 and I love it, especially the graphics. So I made a lot of shots. Of which, I will share a few here.
 
[ATTACH]27763[/ATTACH]
 
One of my first cars, the very Australian Falcon XR8. I just love the way this car looks. I wish the European Mondeo could look like this!
 
 
[ATTACH]27764[/ATTACH]
 
I could've bought that M4 in the back, but this bright coloured RC-F is the one I chose, and I just love it. Most people find it ugly, I find it really nice looking. Also, driftz!
 
 
 
[ATTACH]27767[/ATTACH]
 
The new R8 is in my eyes one of the best looking supercars, and in this picture, I like it even more somehow...
 
 
[ATTACH]27769[/ATTACH]
 
In Australia, even your supercars will get dirty :)
 
 
[ATTACH]27770[/ATTACH]
 
Jumping in the Biposto!
 
 
 
I have some more shots, and will of course make more, this is just to see if you guys like it or not. I hope you do!

Thanks a lot man, that worked! Prepare for some nice screens coming :)

Go onto the forza fourms, log in and then go onto the community tab and then gallery, all the images should be there if you shared them when you took them on the one.

Personally, I'd add only three games to this list:
 
GT4: a lot of cars + a lot of stuff to explore + PS2 = my childhood. The, for back then, insane graphics combined with the epic variety of cars (my dads 2003 Peugeot 307 was even included in that game!), I've played this game for years. I did still play it like a few months ago, but there's no fun in it, tbh. I stared at a garage filled with almost every single LMP1 car in the game, seeing a progress bar of 91% that hasn't changed for the past 2 years. I (or actually, my sister) have a PS4 but there's no GT game for PS4 so I kinda want GT again but it's at the moment not possible.
 
Ford Racing 2: a crap game tbh. But it was my first ever racing game. And there was plenty to unlock, making this game too good for years of fun. It's not a game that should be updated for nowadays consoles, nor is it a game that should be remembered. But there's memory in it. Isn't it just epic to have a game in which the Ford GT is the fastest car available? It was rather special, before noticing that everything I liked about the game is also available in other games, but then better. Nowadays, the only interesting thing to say about FR2 is that the rear side of the PS2 Disc is purple, instead of silver.
 
TDU2: haters gonna hate, and I know they will. I know how disappointing TDU2 is considering the potential of the game. Did I know that when I first got the game, 5(!) years ago when I was 11 years old? Ofcourse not. I saw a game that had a nice variety of nice cars, nice graphics, okay sounds, and I didn't care about physics back then. Special mention for the avatar customization / walkaround interior options, working cabrio roofs and opening windows. That in an open world game, where you can travel to every single centimeter of the map available, and I can go on. Anyone can have another opinion, but I haven't found a game yet that combines all these powers like TDU2. Combine that with the added social aspect and the dozens of people I've met via TDU2, and the current modding opportunity in the game, and I don't see why this game is not a recipe for success. Note, apart from like 5 hours of "borrowed gameplay" (playing it on a friend's PC) I have an opinion about TDU1, but considering the positive energy towards TDU1 in this thread, let's keep that silent for now. I like TDU2 despite the obvious flaws. The social aspect and the pure cruising and fun I've had, make it unbeatable. My 2 cents.

My video is not official Autopack content, it's a preview with replacement models and edited data to come close to the Autopack version. The Gallardo sound was the closest to M4 Akra sound I could get, imo.
 

Because it's one of the most futuristic cars ever (would you say it's 25 years old looking at one?), it's epic to drive and very luxurious. This car was its time years ahead and is becoming a classic JDM icon.
