Editing decals in Gran Turismo Sport Gran Turismo Sport Guide, Tips
Last update: 11 July 2018
While painting a car, you will spend most of the time editing stickers, because they allow you to create various abstract designs or add graphical motifs or sponsors' names. The game offers a set of basic shapes, letters and logos of real and fictional companies, and this set can be enlarged by a huge collection of designs added by players. In the editor, you'll find them in the "Library" section, while those uploaded by you are in the "User's decals" tab.
Most of the stickers can be modified by changing / stretching their shape and color. Complicated patterns will be obtained by overlapping many stickers in the same color, sometimes only by adding a very small fragment. The limit is 300 stickers on the car which allows for really great creativity. At the bottom of the screen you can find the tip bar that describes the controls. Do not be afraid to try and experiment!
Remember to use the layer option "copy and rotate" very often, which allows you to quickly move the sticker to the other side of the car or the other side of the mask or roof. After that, you will obtain a perfectly even and symmetrical pattern on both sides.
If the sticker looks strange, part of it occurs on unwanted elements, or the body has troublesome curvatures, it can then be slightly corrected with the "Projection Area" option. Then try to reduce the "depth limit" or "angle limit".
At the end, you just save your work, load it in a garage and optionally share it with your friends or the whole community. All of these options will be found in the "save" menu.
The end result depends only on your imagination!
