[GhostPulse0]

Step 1: Access the Livery Editor：To start customizing:

1. Visit any Player House or Festival Site.
   
2. Go to the Garage tab.
   
3. Choose Designs & Paints, then Paint Car.
   
4. To create a custom design from scratch, select Apply Decals & Shapes.
   

Step 2: Set Your Base Paint
Your base color sets the tone for the whole car:

• Body Colors: Pick from standard manufacturer colors or “Special Colors” like Carbon Fiber, Matte, or Chrome.
  
• New Favorites: You can now save your favorite colors and quickly select vinyl finishes like semi-gloss, satin, or matte for each layer.
  
• Advanced Parts: Paint window decals, rear wing struts, or even tow hooks for extra detail.
  

Step 3: Creating and Placing Vinyls
Vinyl layers are the heart of your livery:

• Add Layer: Pick a shape (circle, square, or a curated “Vinyl Group”).
  
• Transform: Use your thumbsticks to move, scale, or rotate your shape.
  
• Pro Tip: Press Y to stamp a layer and immediately move to the next.
  
• Materials: Apply different finishes like glossy or matte to individual layers to create depth.
  
• Mirroring: Copy one side of the car to the other using the Insert from Other Side function. Small tweaks might be needed for asymmetrical designs.
  

Step 4: Importing Existing Work
Bring old designs into FH6:

• From Previous Games: Check My Vinyl Groups and scroll through designs from Forza Horizon 5, FH4, or even Forza Motorsport.
  
• External Tools: Some PC players use unofficial tools like “Forza Painter” to convert images into vinyl layers. Make sure to optimize for FH6.
  

Step 5: Finishing and Sharing
Once your car looks perfect:

• Save: Choose Current Car or New Design.
  
• Share: Add a description and tags like “Replica” or “Drift.”
  
• Earn Kudos & Credits: Other players can download your livery, which gives you in-game rewards and recognition.
