that has to do with your settings, try to put your car texture thingy in GP4 graphics options to 'high', that will 99% sure fix it

it is already set to high,in fact if i select the car i can see the textures fine,but if i select another car,i see the macca completly white

Are you using other lower lods? and are you selecting "Force best carshapes" in Team Editor?

Thanks, carshapes are quite good but sadly textures are not..however they are good enough until better ones are been made

from the lod0 i've made the other 3 lod's named lod_1,lod_2 and so on,i don't use team editor because i'm using a csm mod.

The textures disappear, do you feel the same?

yes, the shape rimaning,but the textatures disapper and the car become white

guys, the problem that you see white textures when you are viewing the car from other cars, is because i didn´t created lower lods.

You mean?
I think it is by assigning textures to make the conversion from rFactor to GP4.
Isaint known to correct the problem.

so there is nothing to do for now?Isant if you read this please can you help us please??

there is. you can use the tutorial from Excalibur to create the lower lods.

I think we have answered a hundred of times about this problem....

The textures aren't shown correctly in game if the mapping isn't assigned correctly on the texture for the lod_0. No problem if you force lod_0 in game but if you duplicate lod_0 to get the other lods with a bad mapping, you'll see white cars in game.

Here is your mapping of the Team Lotus car:



So, you have to replace the mapping correctly on the texture:
1- Once you have assigned UV mapping and that it is out of the texture but some mapping is inside the texture, click on modify/move
2- click on the "Edges" button on the menu bar, click-right on the mapping
3- use the easy selector rectangle tool to select only the mapping to replace inside the texture.
4- move your mapping inside the texture.
5- click on the "object" button on the menu bar

It is done.

Next time, check the mapping.
There are other bugs on your car (I suppose it is the same on the other cars released). You have to map the mirrors so that they appear side by side vertically on the texture, then to create a copy of the mirrors and to attach them with the cockpit (mirrors shapes) otherwise, you will see the track through the mirrors shapes in game.
Don't make a copy of the lod_0 to get the lower lods but create lower lods from lod_0 (eventually, look at the tutorial I made to create lower lods)

The other problem on these cars are the normals: the shapes should look smoother and cleaner (no black spots on the shape without textures)

These cars have been converted too quickly, I think. And the textures are not good. You should repaint them and make new alpha layers.

Anyway,I gave you the solution to replace the mapping correctly on the textures. Now, it is up to you...

Hi,
Fix textures.

I have fixed the problem of missing textures, renamed the textures, including the driver and modified rear shaft.

@Excalibur

That is what I thought so and praise you for the detailed instructions

To any one converting cars into GP4,

It is a very known issue while converting, so I would like to advise you to read Excalibur's instructions which is very detailed and very helpful
