Livery Editor - Suggestion Thread
Allow for bigger and smaller sizes for the decals
The minimum size in particular is too big, if I want to place a decal on the side of this wing, for an example, I can’t because the minimum size is...

That. We need a mirror function in the livery editor. We also need text, custom logos/icons, and a share function for teams.
I completely agree, a mirror options is the number 1 thing this editor needs.

Hey there,
We have seen several threads about the Livery Editor functionality. I have merged all the threads into this one so all the feedback is in the same place. I hope this prevents the different suggestions from getting lost due to different threads about the same feature being created.
I will keep merging more threads here.
Thanks for your suggestions!

1) Please add an option to go to "overview" mode, so you can spin round the car and see what you have done at any point. This should be accessible from all menus within the livery editor.
2) Please set the 'livery pattern selection' menu to "preview" patterns before selecting them. At the moment, you have to select the pattern and the back out of another menu, which has a delay and is a pain in the backside.
3) Please add more patterns to the livery editor. Not everyone wants to faff about with the (really crude and clunky) decal editor, and would prefer to select some colours/patterns and get on with it. I'm sure the community would happily create some for you (me included).
4) Consider an auto-layout generator for sponsors, perhaps with a primary sponsor and sone secondary ones. This worked really well in Dirt 4, and meant you could just select the layout you wanted without spending hours placing every logo. It might also allow you to control how brands are displayed, meaning real sponsors could be happier with their inclusion...?
5) As a default, i suggest the bonnet, spoiler, wing etc take on the colours of the car set as part of the livery. If people really want to make them a different colour, I'm sure they will. But having to go through this extra step when applying 3 colours to a car is an absolute pain.
6) Please allow any created livery to be applied to any car.
7) Please consider allowing a personalised plate option, or a random plate generator. This should include a few different country plate options too, rather than just the default UK plate.
8) The sun strip within the livery editor seems excessively low. Please adjust upwards, or consider a setting to adjust its height before applying decals. This is difficult to do with decals alone, as the decals do not apply the perfect curved shape needed.
The following sponsors are "neutral", that is, they are from the WRC, not associated with any specific team: Pirelli, AsahiKasei, Wolf, Forum8, Fanatec, TW Steel, Impex, EA, ProGrade, TATA Comunications, Compact Dynamics and Clean Fuels For All. These sponsors would be great if they were added to the game. We have to be honest, the fake sponsors of the game are they are too simple. It would also be great to add the Rally.Tv logo and the logo of some of the brands to use on specific models.
Aside from the lack of official sponsor logos or even basic lettering and numerals, the livery editor needs a zoom in/out control cos there are times when you you want to place a small decal and the camera is too far away to see properly. We have really good freecam controls in the photomode so why not for decal placement
@EA_Groguet We need this thing to livery editor, that creating would be easier. Also we need possibility use numerals and letters, when we create new liveries to cars. In addition would be nice, if Codemaster / EA Sports could add some basic shapes to decal collection, one of them is star. It's strange, that in decal collection not be stars
this livery editor has going so well after some features added. maybe adding some more basic shapes make it even better like tribals, flames, or kind of liquid blob and some real life logos from sponsors it could be make it perfect.
