I have searched the fourms and could not find this...

Maybe it is just me but I can not for the life of me figuar out how to install Vechicle Textures when I go into SkarkIV and go to the vehicles.img and go to say police.wtd and click edit. This is what I see

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I do not see a place to load the png file... Am I missing somthing?

PLEASE HELP!!

Thanks

The button your looking for is in that picture. Its "IMPORT texture" but you need a car that supports liveries. 99% of the cars out there do so download one and install it then you can change the skins. If your trying to install a car.wtd thats one step back from the screen you captured.

So this would not work? Do I need to import a .wtd and .wtf file that contans a police_sign_1.png and such? and then I can change the png file?

Exactly, when you download a car it will have the two necessary files, the model(WFT) and the textures(WTD) you will replace the default car with these files and the WTD will contain police_sign_1/2/3/4. Then you would import the different skins you want in these places.

How do you make something turn purple like that image btw?

That's called normal mapping. It's used to make a teture look 3d-ish without wasting polygons (like plates are made).

I've always wondered the very same question nutronic asked!

Is there a tutorial about it as I would like to change some things and they never get skinned cus of the purple thing.

I have asked around but no one ever tells me where.

Cheers

There was a tutorial on here 'bout skinning, try checking that 1.
