    Hello

    I am fairly new to this game and just recently started to play online. Just now when I was playing on a server the other persons car looked like this.

    Am I missing the skin? Do I need to enable something that those get downloaded?

    Thanks

    That's the temp car which gets pre-loaded into memory so that when a new player joins, it doesn't have to load the meshes and textures (and result in a big stutter).

    The correct car will be loaded when
    • you Escape out
    • you press the 'Load Vehicles' button, which can be assigned in Controls > Misc > Load Vehicles
    Be aware that pressing Load Vehicles will induce that stutter, so it's best to park your car at the side or when you're on a straight.
