THE CARS COCKPIT IS UGLY

[Guilherme]

Why do some cars have PS1 graphics on their interiors? The dashboard is extremely poorly made, the seats are full of burrs, and the appearance is not sharp. An example is the Aston Martin...

"the Aston Martin" - well, which one?
But yeah, cockpits look better in FH5, especially the digital cockpits. In TCM (and also TC2) you can tell which parts of the dashboard are from the actual car and which are TCM's speedometer.
In return though, the cockpit camera in itself is the best of any recent open world racer.

The current Aston Martin from Summit. But I don't know if this is a bug, because when I change the color of the car's seats, the original interior is terribly ugly, but when I change the color, it looks more polished... maybe some bug in the game, I don't know.

You mean when driving/playing, or while viewing the interior?
Because the latter is actually a bug. For some reason when you're in the interior customisation, it loads a low-res model of it which doesn't even properly display the changes, nor all paint styles.

Yes, I was referring to the customization part. This bug is strange... but during the gameplay I could also see the interior of some derby cars, without any kind of detail, and I believe it is not a design choice, but a lack of attention.

The derby cars generally don't have much detail. I mean, they're taken straight from a junkyard (or that's at least how they are supposed to look).

I don't believe that this was a criterion that the team considered in relation to the design. It's simply a lack of attention to detail.

But the topic is simple: the interior of some cars is terrible.

Overall I would say the interiors look good enough, considering that most of the time you're driving anyway and won't really be looking too deeply into the interior (at least that's what I think). But the implementation of the speedometer in cars with digital dashboards is just bad. Kind of looks like some animated numbers were laid over the dashboard's texture.

Okay, I respect your opinion. I still think they could make some things look sharper. I hope this game improves a lot in the future.

Curious: why though? I mean if we had the ability to go into the cockpit during photomode (like in The Crew 1), then yeah, I'd totally understand the need for interiors looking as sharp as possible, but as it is now I see no need for it.

I understand that it is fine for you and there is no need to change. This is my point of view, I would like the design team to pay attention to this point.

Yeah but why? Like, what could be gained from it?
I am just trying to understand your point of view really.

Nothing could be gained in fact. Just like the wheels cannot be painted with matte paint, only chrome, and in fact this does not change anything in the game... however I would like this option. Observing your comments in the forums I see that for you the game is simply good as it is, but I want many things to improve over time...

Woah woah woah, hold up.
For one, being able to paint the rims in matte is something I would welcome a lot. Like, a whole freaking lot.
For the other, there is a gain as it would allow for more customisation, which is good.

Things improving over time is a good thing, but more work being put into interiors to make them more high-res (and more ressource heavy) for details you will barely ever notice is just something I see as a waste of worktime (and in the long run, waste of money). Time that's better spent elsewhere (again, just my view on this matter).

Forza have the worst cockpit view ever even TDU it better, motorfest is the best in terms of cockpit camera.

This discussion is not about the camera though, but about thde details in the interior itself.
