[Mr Noble]

Is it just me that think's the Graphics are quite Poo in Forza 3 ?

[Desmo]

Quite probably yes.


I downloaded a video from the Forza site and it won't play

How do you get your videos of replays on here?

During a replay, there is an option to make a movie. This lets you upload in either 720p or 360p, a choice of 5-30 seconds to the forzamotorsport.net website. This will remain on the site for 24 hours, in which you have to have logged in and saved the video to your computer.

Then take the saved video and upload it to any video hosting site.

hope this helps.

Been trying to get a clip of me drifting at Tsukuba in the D1 top secret nissan silvia s15 but didnt upload before. Will have to try again.

Thanks, did do a movie a few days ago and uploaded to the Forza site but it didn't appear. Probably cause was before the My Forza appeared.

Also if you try to upload the wmv you get off forzamotorspot.net direct to youtube it doesn't work and comes up with an error, I converted mine to mp4 and then uploaded it fine.

I'm in the ferrari in an online game last night:

Yeah i noticed that, shame it dont tell u at the beginning.

Best/quickest thing to do is once downloaded from fm.net, open new in windows movie maker, then "publish" to this computer and then upload to youtube. usually 4x less file size but still looks very good. Still an WMV but it works. Mayb cos its a HD file i dunno.

Here's 2 of mine, First was a cam before uploads worked and 2nd has no engine sounds Downloaded from fm.net too.
And as a guide that 2nd vid was a 9mb file after converted with wmm, takes no time at all.

Spent ages going thru all Sidewinder tracks to get some drift scores. Great fun.

Dodgy centre of gravity if u get on two wheels sometimes...

Thats some awesome drifting, that is my weakest part. I have no problem hot lapping but I'm rubbish at drifting.

What was th PI on that Golf and what mods had you done to it?

[roughtfish]

Two from the same online race. Had to dive onto the grass at the first corner to avoid an accident and then had to hunt everyone down..

Was expecting sticky grass to kick in but was being squeezed out;

And then loved the fake duke to make the leader run wide;

Cheers mate, Yeah im decent at it.lol. Not quite so good in RWD takes moe tweaking to get it right.
if u wanna see more hit the drift leaderboards in AWD Sidewinder tracks.
Was a S 700 with R36/AWD and about 603bhp maxed handling etc. Spent a few hours going thru all of em

Good vids roughtfish, will add u as friend on youtube to keep an eye out.

Nice Driving

[oasismark]

Check out the A.I. getting revenge and taking me out cos i acidentally rammed him.

YouTube - Movie

[Yemeth]

You may notice me hitting the high revs a little too much. 3rd gear needs tuning, which I hadnt done in the video.

[reddevil63]

How are you getting to drift like that? I only get half way round a corner before I either drift out too far and whack something or end up spinning out. I am not going too fast approaching corners. Its trying to maintain the drift and even try feathering the throttle but can't get it right.

Things to consider when drifting:

1) steering intensity

2) throttle requirement (mid-drift)

3) initiation (handbrake or power over).

Ive tried to put a 'how to' in words, but it never comes out right. What you need to do is keep practicing a good corner, the rewind feature is a godsend for practice.

Know your car. Once you find a car you're good with, its yours. Dont expect to be good in any car. Find out which revs in which gears give you the right amount of traction loss. Then you can know when the car is going to give way and lose traction before you drift.

Things to note in my vid:

Notice at the beginning how much im having to do to keep the car in check. My front wheels are constantly twitching from steering. Listen to my engine, the revs are irregular and im not always flooring the gas peddle. There is no system to throttling, its just act and react.

You can glimpse a handbrake initiation to the final bit of the video on the first hair pin. For a brief moment, my rear wheels lock up while im starting the turn.

Practice is perfect where drifting is concerned. I use the cockpit view btw. RWD is much harder than 4WD, but more realistic and rewarding, and just how its meant to be done.

[Yemeth]

Really liked the camera angle in this clip from the benchmark layout A.

Suprised this thread had died off, anyway...

Not had forza on in a while and had an urge to drive my fave car, Top Secret Supra. So recorded first few laps suprised i could keep it in check after not playing for ages. Couple of nice little drifts.

Love it.

YouTube - FM3 - Top Secret Supra @ Laguna Seca

EDIT

Just watched that again and the way it looks leaving the rubber down at approx 2:43 & 4:10 is outstanding. No car in any game/any format is so rewarding to drive. Feel thru the tyres is immense in this game.
As much as i love true sims like iracing this game still amazes me.

[les05]

Looking good. Not had this on for ages, might give it a go soon
