Design: Silk Cut McLaren custom ACC livery

Whilst creating liveries for the upcoming Lamborghini SuperTrofeo, one of our members asked if I could make him one based on the iconic “Silk Cut” Jaguar XJR9 LM. This car, driven by Jan Lammers, Johnny Dumfries and Andy Wallace, won the 1988 Le Mans 24hrs. Its sister car came in a respectable fourth place. Having made the “Silk Cut” Lamborghini Huracan ST based on the template I created for the SuperTrofeo, he (and I) loved the result. He even asked me how much it would cost for me to make...

ACC Playercount Round-up: February 2021

It’s March 1st, and for me that means one thing: time to reflect on ACC’s player statistics over February. Last month, I predicted a new peak concurrent player record due to the (at the time of writing) rumoured release of the British GT DLC. I also predicted it would shatter January’s numbers. Lets see if I was overly optimistic, or absolutely right! A short TL;DR in advance: British GT DLC sets new peak concurrent record (6239); February 2021 is, once again, the biggest in terms of player activity (+8.13%) March...

How to: full custom liveries for ACC

This tutorial was long overdue. I’ve been making full custom liveries since the option to do so emerged last year, but figured there were enough resources available. However, in the year that has passed I never came across a full written tutorial to do so. Furthermore, I keep getting questions on how to make full custom liveries like this one, these ones or this one (or get a full list of downloads here). This made me decide to write a ‘definitive’ guide on full custom liveries in ACC to help...

A look back on the Ginetta Cup – in numbers!

With the Ginetta Cup done and dusted, it is time (for me, at least) to look back on it and reflect. The racing has generated a lot of data. Some useful, some less so. I have sent out surveys to all our participants to enhance this data so I can write an in-depth analysis of the championship. To start of with some numbers on participation: 23 drivers registered for the Ginetta Cup; 20 drivers participated in at least one race; 9 people participated in all five of the races; 15...

This amounts to twelve different custom liveries for the precious Ginetta G55! Check the showcase video below for all variants; >> You can download the pack from...

This post collects some of the best edits I made which, imho, are fit to adorn your desktops (i.e., totally free wallpapers)! Below, I’ll not only show the original screenshot and its edit, but I’ll also explain what I did to the picture so you know what to look for if that’s of...
