car painting templates

have downloaded the templates, but once they have been painted, how do you get them into the game, I don`t see any vehicle dds files anywhere to save to ? well only the rTrainer.

 

I have the same problem, where do you put the dds files.

Please expand to the folder location - rfactor2/....where???

 

there is no where to put them currently unless you package a new mod together ...but the package system is currently bugged so dont bother with that idea...

the other thing you could do is make the mod of your choice work in devmode but that would just be for personal use and unless you know what your doing is beyond the average user

 

o.k thanks for the reply, hopefully it will be as easy as RFactor 1, eventually.

 

Why would they give us templates if you can't paint and use them in game?
Other people were saying to make the same SKINS\MISC folders but didn't say where?

Maybe Tim can comment,

 

you can do that if you do the devmode option i posted above...

 

Personally I hope its even easier than rF1

I woudl LOVE to see teams/skins added as a component, so leagues can easily incorporate skins WIHTOUT the need of repackaging a mod.

I would also LOVE to see the "skin" mismatch REMOVED completely. So if I join with a skin that isnt ont eh server I dont get kicked for it....just give me a "default white" skin.

THAT would get rid of 99.9% of the mismatches out there.....personally....

 

+1 Slothman, It seems like Simbin's customskin, and IMO it's well done !

 

where are the templates now??

 

Top of page, rFactor2/Downloads scroll down.

 

and where have i put the skins in???
