Marty's Land of License Plates

What the hell is this?

This is where I'll be posting progress on an umm... texture mod of mine for Bigg Boss 93's brilliant license plate mod. I think license plates an important part for a car, otherwise you wouldn't be allowed on the roads!

So what exactly will you be doing?

For version 1.0 of my little texture mod, I'll be making textures for license plates of all countries of the European continent. Each country will have one license plate of it's own, currently only wide ones, I might do square versions wherever possible in a future version 2.0. After I finish with this continent, I'll probably move on with another, but that will be with time.

And what's the current list of license plates?

This is the current list of license plates to be done, whichever ones are finished will be striked through.

How exactly do you make them?

I "construct" them in Photoshop. All the license plates I make are unique combinations that most probably won't be found on the internet. I won't simply slap on a license plate I've taken from a picture.

And that's about it. If you've got any suggestions, comments or anything just reply below. I might do license plate requests in the future, where you tell me what you want and I construct it, but not now.

At least make for them a PSD like BB did and use good quality, also dont forget about the day/night lights

There's always day/night textures. I've already made 10 of them. However I haven't really done .psd's, but that should be easy enough to do.

This sounds promising. also, upload some pictures along the road.

MartyTheGamer

Ofcourse I will. Just finished Romanian license plates today.

Nice work!

Hey, now that you've planned to cover most of Europe, maybe I'll have to finish most of the US, and maybe some from Canada and Mexico and Australia. (The Arizona 1980, Michigan, Florida, New York (? - dunno if that's publicly available), Dubai, Qatar plates; the Victoria, Australia Euro-style plate; and the NSW AU plate are all by me.)

MartyTheGamer

Turkish plates finished.

Thanks and no thanks, I'm already having enough resolution problems with the license plates. xD
I take the different letters and numbers from pictures of license plates of various resolutions, so sometimes I have to do extra editing to make it look good. I haven't found a way to get the fonts of these license plates so it can be done faster.

Added 17 minutes later:

@Bigg Boss93 How did you find the fonts for your plates? That would make creating this much much faster and easier.

Simply googled for "font nationality license plate", some of the fonts are not available so i basically just use UK, Germany, Italy and US fonts for every plate(it doesnt really matter that much except for custom characters as german ones).. didnt i upload all the fonts with the pack tho?

Well yes you did upload the fonts but it's a bit hard to find fonts for not so popular countries. Like Kazahstan. Or Albania. Or Macedonia.

Bigg_Boss93

Just check which of those i shared is the most similar to that one, and use it.. really nobody(except picky fucks) will ever notice or care about the font. Proof made by people who uses the "SER 200" plate i made on every car, when it was actually made for the Sentra SE-R 🙂)

MartyTheGamer

Well I'll stick to my way to keep the plates as authentic as possible.

PXRZ

Are those addon mods?

MartyTheGamer

What do you mean? I'm just making textures for BB93's plates basically...

Albanian plates now done.

Robustock

Shouldnt be a number in that little circle, I mean it's not a must but sometimes happens that there is the year of the registration in there

Ey_papa

What about one for Quebec?

cate

Make something for macedonia 😃

MartyTheGamer

@[deleted] Dunno, none of the pictures I've seen on the internet had anything actually in that circle.

@Ey papa since when is Quebec in the European continent?

@Starsky If you checked the list you'd see Macedonia has already been done, just the picture is somewhere amongst the Showoff thread because I did it a while ago.
