Trading paints idea.

Post by raindogmutt »

Okay, this is just a suggestion so try not to tear it apart like a pack of velociraptors!

At the moment you have to download a ridiculousness amount of shiz to see everyone's lovely colourful gear and bikes ingame. So my idea has the same concept as a program called trading paints which stores Iracing (if you don't know what iracing is google it) skin in a database. Once you get ingame the program will automatically download the skins ingame that you need for your game to look pretty. Once the game is over and you exit out of the session you have the option for trading paints to delete all the skins you installed while racing. This means you pc won't get clogged up with skins. All the skins are stored on a database system, you would have your own account with your uid to store your lovely shiz.

All I need is a brainiac to code and make this a reality.
Tell me what you think
-stupid
-greatest idea ever!
Sorry if I didn't explain it very we'll, I'm using my phone so my hands start to fall apart.

It has been suggested before, however I would love to see this happen. I am tired of seeing only a few skins (Even after having a 60gb personal folder.)

That would take a ton of bandwidth. If you think about it every single person in every server would be downloading skins, bikes, helmets, gear, wheels, for every single match. once everyone is going in a lobby it wouldn't be bad but if a big rush happens (cough 03) it could bring speeds to a crawl.

not sure how much it would be to handle that though.
Also it would depend on if the "hub" that you download from is central or server specific.

I really like this idea, but if you can turn it off when you want, for example for an organized event where there are 40 riders, i don't want my pc to run all skins and download then meanwhile i am on the grid.
Other than that, it would be an amazing add to the game, and will make the game looks a lot more beautiful.
