Mine successfully copied via USB, you might be OK.

You can import your save and get some cars depending on what you have and you also get some for your driver level. The details are in the first post.

Im not sure mate, all i did was move my gamertag onto the usb stick then moved all saves i wanted on to it, dropped it all of fon the new xbox then did a xbox.com/drm and it seems to be working. All my cars stats money etc are there when i booted up forza 3.

i was considering waiting for the new dashboard and cloud saves, in fear of losing data..

Well, I can safely say this is the link I was missing.

Damn, so stupid yet so logical.

This is the answer, you have to probably move a gamertag to USB.

Stupid, stupid me. Thanx Madmeckem, congratulations on successful surgery :D

Good luck mate i hope it works for you like it seems to for me. I also think i clicked move rather than copy.

It was over a year ago, so I could be wrong. However, I'm fairly sure I did not copy my tag over at the same time as my saves, yet I never had a problem.

Right there with you, broseph! Woo!

I laughed [spoiler]then cried[/spoiler] at this ad in that car list thread on GTPlanet:

I've gone through that list of FM4 unicorns and there are actually a lot of those in FM3 already that can be bought offline. Sucks that they'll now be hard to come by once FM4 is out.

Really sucks.
 
I'm no racing car expert but judging from the screens and the look of the physics.

Holy crap at the screens.

Well I guess Grand-o Toileto 5 has no chance against now....
 
One thing i don't think Forza 3 got enough love for and is a big help in Forza 4 is the ability to follow/favourite people.

With a full friends list, favourites plus the car club make me a happy bunny for the leaderboards.
 
How are you supposed to get Unicorn cars? Do you just randomly get gifted them during career or something? Or are they the ones that cost 15m+ to buy?

If it just a matter of grinding, that doesn't really bother me, but kind of sucks if they're a random thing.

I think you can only buy them in the auction house. At least that's how it used to work.

wow, you mean Gamestop clerk was *GASP* right ?? :D

when i bought the slim i told him i needed a transfer cable.
He said
"no man, you don't "
"oh yes, i need one, desperately "
"dude, a regular usb key will do, that's all you need"
"no man, you don't get it, i heard of lost saves and horror tales, i need one"
"man, trust me, i also had problems with mass effect, but you just have to move your profile to usb first, then move saves. It works, don't worry"
"wtf dude, just give me the damn cable, i don't believe you "
"well, we're out of those"

i'm shocked. has to be the first gamestop clerk who knows what he's talking about

GameStop clerks in to gamers. Gamers in to GameStop clerks.
 
Anyone know how many credits we can transfer from our Forza 3 save? I take it there will be some sort of cap. Keen to transfer as many credits as I can to have a shot at buying a unicorn car.

I think it's capped at a cool '0'..

I thought Just cars/vinyl groups get transferred.. I could be wrong :)

Pretty much, though I believe that depending on your level in FM3 you'll get credited with a certain amount of cash at the start of 4.
 
Just re-read Under the Hood Part 2. You are all correct - the game gives you a certain amount of credits based on your level in Forza 3. I think that is it. For some reason, I thought that there was also an import of credits.

I also received an email from Microsoft today advertising Forza 4 where they invite me to take a test to see which Forza 4 car suits my personality. Curiously, they state the following:

"With the Forza Motorsport 4 Profiler, you can discover which of the 800 plus Forza Motorsport 4 cars best suits your personality (and have a lot of fun along the way). To unveil your perfectly tuned motoring monster, simply race on over to the Xbox Australia and New Zealand Facebook page and answer our Forza Motorsport 4 Profiler questions."

Any idea where they are getting the 800 car figure from? The game only has 500 cars. 300 DLC cars to come perhaps? :-)

Look at your numpad.

It's a typo.
