zerobandwidth submitted a new resource:

Universal Number Plate Template (GIMP) - A single GIMP .xcf file that includes templates for number plates in several race series.

This isn't a full skin, but a resource for creating skins — yet another template for number plates. This is a single, editable GIMP image that includes templates for several sports car racing series. It is organized as several layer groups for various sanctioning bodies (WEC, ELMS, IMSA, etc.), further subdivided by series, class, etc. To make a number plate, just show the appropriate layers, edit the car number, and (optionally) export to a flat PNG or other image. These exported images may...

Universal Number Plate Template (GIMP) Fantasy Update

While the original template pack included plates for real race series, this update is primarily focused on some recently-popular fantasy leagues.

WHAT YOU GET

New number plates for the following:

• VLN Endurance (sort-of)
  • Author's Note: This is not quite accurate to the actual VLN plates, but it's pretty close, and they seem to change drastically every year anyway.
• Ginetta GT4
  • Author's Note: This is an adaptation of...

I have only GIMP available, as I just can't justify the cost of Photoshop. I will tinker with it and see if I can export a .psd that preserves the layer information. However, GIMP is free, so... if all else fails, you can just install GIMP to open it.

"File > Save As" in GIMP is reserved for saving native GIMP XCF files. GIMP has limited support for PSD images because the PSD format is a proprietary format owned by Adobe. However, exporting is usually fine and layers are preserved. However import of PSDs created in Photoshop can be problematic.

Tagging @PawelP since you asked specifically about Pirelli World Challenge. I didn't get around to the pre-2019 look, but SRO Pirelli TC America (2019) plates are now included.

Added the SRS Jean vs. Zerobandwidth Challenge series.

As part of the upcoming Jean vs. zerobandwidth series on SimRacingSystem, the number template has been updated with the plate design from its custom livery pack. Anyone designing their own custom livery for this series is encouraged to use the black-on-white format; the dark-background ones are for the series hosts.

UPDATE: New series and better organization.

This update brings a couple of nice IMSA-related improvements.

UPDATED: IMSA WeatherTech Series Templates

The IMSA WeatherTech series plates have been completely reorganized so that they can support creation of plates simulating any year from 2015-2019, in any of the various classes that have existed since the merger. Since this is complicated there's a set of instructions included with the file; just open the included instructions-IMSA-WTSCC.html in any browser.

ADDED: IMSA...

Update: Added SRO/Blancpain SILVER class.

Just a minor update this time.
While browsing online I found that SRO Blancpain has a "SILVER" class. So I added it to the 2019 Blancpain GT3 template.

While I'm not actually using this resource and hate to be rude, can i point out that in 2019 the Blancpain series have white backed plates with black numbering across all classes. It would be appreciated if you do make the change, to keep the black and red backed versions of AM and PRO-AM that you've already made because I honestly believe to be nicer and more practical. But for the sake of authenticity, they are all the same apart from the small coloured box at the bottom.

Thanks and sorry for the bother!

Not rude at all! I hadn't noticed that they'd made that change. Thanks for the tip!

Just for kicks, and since the Kyalami track mod was just released, I am going to try to get some Kyalami 9-hour plates done this evening.

UPDATE: SRO Kyalami 9-Hour 2019!

Well, that was shockingly easy, given that it was based on the current Blancpain plates, the race logos were easy to find, and GT World had an awesome-quality live stream of the race that provided excellent reference screenshots.

Now you can have commemorative Kyalami 9-Hour plates to go with the brand-new Kyalami track for Assetto Corsa... or whatever other game you make liveries for...

do you also have the british gt numberplate?

Not yet, but I can throw it in the queue of series to be investigated.
If you know of any good sources of reference photos, I'll take a look.
Thanks!
