    Hi

    working on one of my first RF2 skins and i have prepared my window file Porsche_991GT3R_2018_windows
    and saved it as per the file name with parts added to the Alpha channel, yet it does not get applied to the car?

    saving as DXT5 ARGB 8bpp

    what am i doing wrong... yes im reloading the car

    File name correct? Should be your file name then "window" with no space
    Example:
    altPorsche123.dds
    altPorsche123window.dds

    I disagree. In this example it should be altwindow (no underscore and no trailing S) and for OP, please name it something not just "alt" or you will get confused with other people and base skins.
