    Was wondering if someone can tell me if there is a simple reason why a car doesn't load, just shows up as a yellow box? I'm sure it's missing some file. This is a GT mod I've installed that includes

    Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, and McLaren. All the cars load properly except the Z4. Not sure if this is the right place to ask for help with a mod either. Any help would be greatly appreciated>

    It's when you are on track while a new player joined. When you exit to pits their cars will load. There is a button you can map to load them while on track.

    It does it to save you lagging out or losing bandwidth Dow loading their custom skins, etc. On your return to the pits, they load in. And yes, there is a button for forcing a load while driving.

    Then mod is propably broken. Maybe a broken download,- try to download new.
    Otherwise it´s not a good mod.

    It would help a lot if you would post the link from where you download the mod. ;)

    The problem is, that the cars body and other parts -meshes entries in the GEN file are all tagged with <max>, so if you set the Vehicles graphics to max, the car should be visible.
    But with a lower setting you get the TEMP car shown (your "yellow box) instead.
    But to be honest, the whole mod is not well done, i would suggest to use other GT cars.

    Thank you for that info redapg!!! I have a couple other GT3 mods installed. Was just wanting to try this one out, but it got a little annoying with the yellow cars lol. I also have the AM GT3 mod but haven't been all that impressed with the graphics with it either.
