Putting car textures into the game

I am having trouble getting my car texture into the game, I have got the targa converted into a texture file and it works in game but the car just looks how the template looks, any ideas what I am doing wrong, I am only replacing Hi_Jordan_1 if that helps.

flip the texture vertically

So that will make sure all the pieces go on the car in the correct place instead of in random places. I am on about in game btw, where you?

you usually have to flip the textures vertically to make them work in game,so yes i was lol..

Well that didn't work :S I will post a screen shot of what is happening, maybe then you will be able to see what I mean.

When they upload that is

Is this the original Jordan shape, or you have putted the .gp4 file also in the wad?

That's an original gp4 car. Templates are mapped to certain shapes, so the template you painted would have come with the carshape it was meant for. You can't just put any texture on any car, each template is made specifically for the shape it is meant to be used with. That's why is is appearing weirdly in game, as your putting your texture on an original carshape. You need to put the carshape that was with the template in the slot you want and make sure you have the textures named correctly.

yeah using the correct carshape that came with the template usually helps lol

I knew that Tried that with the textures but no luck, do I need to save the lods with the design on them?

It was a case of flipping the design
