You mean customed plates? If yes, in Europe are very rare, I mean it's possible to have different fonts for numbers and letters but not something like in the USA, only the UK allowed something similar. :)
I don't think other fonts are allowed, there are automated license plate readers that depend on the font, kerning and size of the lettering to validate a license plate. They are standard for a reason you know...

That license plate may have European dimensions, but everything else is NOT European.

Well, not in IRL Europe. In this Game Alternate Reality, the one with beaches in Paris, who's to say what is what... MoonBox that's who...

So, Boss MoonBox:

1- Where in the world is Carmen SanDiego... oops... sorry... is the game located at? Inquiring minds are asking.
2- Deserts on the US East coast? Yes or No?
3- License Plates are European or not?

Thank you.

Peace :)

Well that depends on where you are in general it's not possible like you said, in some german states it's possible to have a different fonts as long as you don't alter dimensions and other infos, as well as in Austria but it's limited severely.
WICKEDp4th warned me about my wrong knwoledge so I'm editing this since I stand corrected.

Yeah that was I was saying the license MB used is an official NY state plates, just spreaded on an european plate, but that probably because the model was already with it, and he just modified it on Photoshop. :giggle:

What do you mean by some german states? In germany is only one Font allowed and it is called forgery-proof font it is standardized for the whole german country.
That's what I read, but since you're telling me it was surely a false info, so I will correct my post sorry and thanks for correcting me. :)

Alright but first I gotta say, I fucking love this thread. ❤
Some other devs be out there trying to avoid a straight up holy war and y'all in here politely discussing geography and license plates. :ROFLMAO:

1. The game takes place in Gilford, which is a fictional town about an hours drive from LA. There's no traffic in the GH universe otherwise it'd be like a 6 hour drive.
2. No idea, I failed geography.
3. The license plate is just the one that came with the asset and I added a couple of lines to explain it. That's how most of the writing happens tbh :LOL:
Looks to me like the layout of a NY place on the shape of a European one.

Thanks Boss. I was completely mistaken about the Coast. Goes to show how much I know about the US, maybe about the same as most of you know about Portugal I bet. LOL

Peace :)

That's why this is one of my most fav threads, at least we can still discuss things without yelling or being at each other throat. :) (y)
