Skin Issues 9 years 11 months ago #63384

I got three skins on another thread I stared a while back. I cant seem to figure out how to get them downlaoded to the game. If anybody can help me I would greatly appreciate it. I would also prefer them to be in a zip format

What problem are you having? Downloading or installing? Any error messages about the track when you start the game or is it not listed?

I made a thread a little back about trying to get certain driver skins. I got the ones I was looking for but they didnt put them in a format for me to download or "unzip". They are just pics of the skins, I have no idea how to get them unzipped to the proper files they need to go to. I am somewhat new to skins but I know how to unzip them and get them to the porper files but I cant figure these out.

There is a lot that goes into a skin, it's not simply copying and pasting a jpg file. It has to be a .tga file, it has to have correct name (512texture) and the accompanying text file has to match. I'm currently trying to figure out how to take a jpg and get it too work by no luck so far. I know there are guys who know how to do it, i plan on working in it some tonight. If I figure it out I'll let you know.

And under the save options, change it to uncompressed. That's what I was doing wrong.

I noticed robot said "and the accompanying text file has to match", idk if you are doing this, but it has to be a .str, not a .txt. The game will probably give an eror if there sin;t an str, but just be sure it is str and not txt.
