AFAIK, the corrupted save issue still shows up occasionally, but there's a way to just delete the corrupted file without wiping out all of your Forza 4 progress.

I ran into the corrupted save bug, and the method posted below let me delete only the file causing the problem.

the internet posted:

If you receive the message above when trying to save a file please follow these directions:

Go to the Xbox Dashboard.
Move to My Xbox then scroll to the right and select “System Settings”.
From inside System Settings select “Memory” then select the location where your game saves are located (for most people this will be on the hard drive).
Scroll down the list until you find Forza Motorsport 4.
From inside the Forza Motorsport 4 memory saves, you want to select the file that was corrupted. In most cases the file you are looking for will say “Corrupted” and have “!” next to it.


NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT DELETE your Game Save, If you do, you will lose all your game progress. Here is a list of the naming structure of your Forza Motorsport 4 saves:

(Your Gamertag) Saved Game – DO NOT DELTE THIS FILE. This is your main game save file and should only be deleted as a last resort.

(Your Gamertag) Car Setup Files Saved Game - These are your Tune Files.

(Your Gamertag ) PHOTOS Saved Game – This is all of your saved photos.

(Your Gamertag) LAYER GROUPS Saved Game – These are all of your created and purchased layer group files.

(Your Gamertag) Design Catalog Saved Game – These are all of your created and purchased car designs.

(Your Gamertag) Replays Saved Game – This save contains all our your saved replay info.

(Your Gamertag) WMV MOVIES Saved Game – This save contains all our your saved movies.

GHOSTS Saved Game – This is where your best time ghost files are saved locally.

(Your Gamertag) Game Options Saved Game – These are your saved game options.

Well, you've got two options. You can have 2 of 82 (Alpine Alt) or you can hold out for another design (next available slot is 25 of 82, but I can slap a #21 on either car). Oh, there's also "Dirty Drifters", but only if you reeeeealy want it.

Of course, that can backfire... some men like their bitches crazy.
So I'm... racing with pubbies. And its going well? Everyone is letting each other pass and the one guy being a jerk was kicked.

Then a guy was like, opening a million cans of tuna or something? Then his dad came and shouted at him.

Then a guy joined who played mario noises throughout, including the mario death sound whenever someone span.

Its the most surreal thing...

Try the drift games sometime, most of them are full of people with their headsets stuffed in their bong chambers or something. It's like a contest to see who can pull off the mad-tytest-sickest-fully-retarded drift with the most absurd looking slammed car while documenting every bong rip as loudly as possible. And it is hilarious because they all sound like they are 15-year-old white kids. And they get very angry with you when you're not part of their synchronized drifting.

And when a parent comes home unexpectedly, comedy gold. Don't even race. Just join and listen while you eat dinner or something.

It seems unable to view any car without getting stuck on the manufacturer logo or just going black and crashing. Tried clearing my cache and deleting the image on the hdd. :(

That stretch of track is a lot narrower than it looks, and of course 99% of pubbies will just try to rush past anyone in front of them immediately without considering the track ahead, so... welp.

Is there any way to assign more than one custom category per car in your garage? I'd love to have both "Favorites" as a kind of virtual Dream Garage and then "Best of Class" for grouping the cars I'll use for actual game progression, but it's looking like I can't because of the overlap.

Sadly no. Considering how much the game is supposed to be about owning cars the whole area of "garage functionalities" is still, after 4 iterations of the game, really really poor. Organizing, sorting, watching, it's all pretty bad. Especially tons of little and unexplainable stuff like: why is the PI not visible if I'm in grid mode?

To be honest, I think all the garage issues could be forgiven if they'd just let us make Test Drive 2 style virtual garages where we could put our favorite cars in different garage settings (rich mansion garage with furniture and water fountain, white-walled track side garage with a crew in the background and tools on the walls, crowded oil-stained hobbyist workshop with a lift, etc) and able to just walk around them in 1st person, oogling everything.

How many of you like Skittles? I know I do. Sometimes it feels like cheating a little bit, but when you find that one design that just works really really well for a myriad of colors, you just gotta go for it.

So, without further ado, here are the next 13 cars.

"Goodyear Rally"; this is a paint job off of a 1965 Ford Mustang rally car (yes). Well, best I could off of one smallish picture. The actual car is orange, I did yellow and two types of green that work really well (I experimented with two other greens based on Ford & Lotus colors, but they were of the eye-bleeding kind). The two greens here ar Ford's "Gotta-Have-It-Green" and Lotus' "Lotus Racing Green" according to some website somewhere. Red, Blue, and Purple/Violet really don't work with this layout, though.




"BASF"; based on a photo I believe was posted in this thread before I started this project (I think it was a BMW M1). Anyways, original car was red, but I did the other colors because it works really well (although yellow...)




"Seibon"; another car design based (loosely) on the same photo of a bunch of Porshces the includes Stella, Falken, and the Irwin cars. This one has a 'sister' car, so I did them both:




"Aeroflot"; not actually based on a race car, so I've left it fairly clean.


This will work the same way as last time, except the following people are now up to choose their cars:

Qres
projecthalaxy
Puddin23
iHaak
KibaStryker

The following have had their cars sent out:
biglads
Scatterfold

This puts me at 33 of 82 completed.
