    Hello all,

    I am fairly new to rFactor 2 modding, in fact, I'm quite new to modding in general.
    Only thing I've succesfully done so far is change a front wing model.

    I am trying to convert an Automobilista mod (Mazda DPi) to rFactor 2, but I get this error message when trying to load up the car:

    The car does show up in the showroom, but the windows are not right, while I'm here, does anyone know a fix for that?

    Here is a log file when I try to load the car: https://www.mediafire.com/file/r42lpflpo9b3npt/trace_2019_05_06_19_56_29-12.txt/file

    I really want this car to work but dont know what to do next, thanks in advance.

    Have you already asked the original author for permission to convert his work? Because that should be your very first step.

    I have asked him, just no reply yet, and I'm not going to release anything before I get permission to do so.

    Also fixed the loading problem: Some DDS files weren't there (found in log), it worked fine once I added them.
    Window issue still not fixed though.

    Regarding the window issue i would say that the alpha channel of the window.dds is not setup right to make it transparent. You have to make it either white or black or something inbetween
