But did you unziped texture files also? And all shape files? Are they all in your cars.wad? Cars folder in car.wad file? You didn't unzip it directly into cars.wad when you have 3 more folders in it? It has to go in cars folder.

Don't confuse it with cars folder located in your GP4 directory, there you install helmets 9,10 and 21.

Stay tuned For screens!!

Now....Im getting alot further...I have both custom helmets in the carshapes are Perfect for both slot 11 cars..but white cars..no textures..I have renamed them bd_1.tex , bd_2.tex and bd_3.tex and I have added these new names in the 3d editor for all lods....i comiled everything to a wad but no textures...is there anyway of finding out witch textures the game is trying to load..i have all the correct refrences in 3d editor...



Thanks for your help!

Well i got the whole car, helmets shape textures everythinh working and i must say it looks great....

The reason the car was white before was because I entered hi_team11_1 etc in 3d editor NOT team11_1 etc so it would use all 3 resolutions (lo_,hi_ and just team11_01.


Ill post some pics l8er...its still WIP as were making the pitcrew and atrwork...

Expect some shots later!!
