On the normal Xbox One, at least on FM6, there's also a high poly model ingame, but just if you're driving solo.

Oh, cool. Thanks.

 

[Momentary]

GTS might have less cars than the other racers released in the past few weeks, but they got the most interesting cars and the most cars that I want to drive. I know some of them are fantasy cars, but damn I don't care.

Damn it sucks not owning a console. I'm holding out knowing that the next console will probably play this game at higher graphical fidelity.

 

[Head.spawn]

Oh is it an effect one can add in photo mode?

Yep. You can make it super intense.

I like the way it looks in the second shot.

GTS ingame

WOW ... I am impressed to finally see in-game shots like these for a racer...these look amazing for being in-game. Usually photomode are just too good compared to in-game and then playing the game, you get a shock as to how poor IQ/lighting usually is comparatively. But here the difference is not too big.

This is straight up authentic.

 

[Fess]

God is in the details...

Love the way the high quaility models of FM7 look from the ingame external view.

Woah those are some nice little animations!

I think some of the exterior vibrations can be too exaggerated though, like the windscreen wipers at high speed. Still better than before when everything was all static.

Great shots. PC2 can really be a looker!!

I don't think I've ever seen a car seat look like that..

Gorgeous!

 

[Terbinator]

The toned down car lights coming from FH3 > FM7 is an absolute killer in both aesthetics and gameplay. Some of thr night tracks you literally can't see shit.

Can any lurkers from turn 10 address this here , please? It sticks out like a sore thumb.

 

[aaaaa0]

You know, if five years ago, you told me this was a pre-render from the box of some racing game I would have believed you.

I'm amazed how great the games today look.

 

[Tomeru]

What do you mean? You never seen the inside of that car?

 

[TBiddy]

What do you mean? You never seen the inside of that car?

No, I mean it doens't look very real. It's obvious that it's from gameplay, and not from photomode.

Looks pretty good to me. Let us carry on!

Great comparison shots. Two beautiful games exchanging punches!

Nalis it pretty well, beautiful.

 

[EarsOfASnake]

I wish they would update the 'claw grip' that the hands have, it looks awful. Probably not worth the effort to give each wheel a proper grip position when you have hundreds of cars.

At a quick glance it's pretty much just the awkward camera movement that gives it away for me.

After reading the Red Bull impressions I cannot wait to play this in PSVR, just a shame it's going to be 1 v 1

The conditions aren't nearly the same though. Hence why the lighting looks so different.

 

[dc89]

Not saying Forza 5 holds a candle to GTS, 7 or FH3 but to think the game is 4 years old soon is a bit mad!
We've had some great looking racing games this gen.

Please stop, photomode and gameplay are the same thing in GTS and was already proven in this topic.

Hah, that reminds me of that video where the driver just flicks the other guy's rear view mirror!

I can't choose which is worse: the ugly leather
or fake baked lighting like this

GTs pit stop

Very nice indeed. That communicates the frenzy of a pit stop exceedingly well. pCARS 2 should use cuts and pans like this to hide the ponderous robotic jankiness of it's own stops.

Fake baked lighting, so you know that it's baked or you're assuming based on nothing?

This is new to me. Where do you consider this "proven"?

 

[Sini]

Is this baked selfshadowing?

Makes it clear some of the lighting is baked in.

Did you miss the comparison made in this topic? Because the only difference when you use the game camera during replay is the fact that you aren't driving.

Wow, lighting wise, the gap is quite obvious ! You can mistake GTS ingame shots with reality, not the case with F7.

and it achieves that by clevery hiding all the tricky sequences that would need to be tweaked for all cars individually.
You never see the guys actually removing a tire and putting the new one in place, it's simply hinted at, It's basically a cutscene and it wouldn't be hard at all to implement something like that in other games.

 

[potatohead]

Gts is out of control for real

It's not even a comparison the other games look toy like in so many lighting conditions and the materials aren't even close either

 

[carsar]

There are shadows on the top, light area an the bottom in my screenshot. What is it if not baked lighting\shading? You can see comparison(pre page)between normal wheel position and turned wheel.

Makes it clear some of the lighting is baked in.

I guess all interiors are baked. It's not so bad, however can be flat like 2D in some moments

Exactly. Smoke and mirrors, but incredibly effective. I always thought SMS were making a rod for their own backs with real-time pitstop animations. Their jankiness breaks immersion rather than adding to it.

Impressive, hard to believe this in ingame !

Aren't replays running at 30 FPS with extra effects added?

 

[potatohead]

Can't believe how many people are so salty at how good gt looks 😂 then again not really surprised at all so many haters

Aren't replays running at 30 FPS with extra effects added?

No not from gameplay camera angles

 

[dr guildo]

Perhaps if you have vaseline rubbed in your eyes.

Or a good TV.

 

[GeordieMark]

Or a good TV.

A good TV also shines a light on the flaws, like the aliasing and flat textures. A gif would serve the purpose better.

 

[Anarion07]

I cringe so hard every time people use vaseline, vaseline filter etc. when talking about graphics.

 

[carsar]

Is this baked selfshadowing?

So, Not all cockpits are baked. Some have realtime shadowing)))
You can see right position of shadows when wheel is turned
