Okay, so, we probably all know that .4 causes texture loss and unless you shittify your textures you can't play it, does anyone have a fix that works the one on the wiki does nothing and removing modded vehicles really un-immerses you. Please if you know anything about it post it here.

Unfortunately, the only solutions right now are to turn pre-loaded models to off, and to change the texture sizes inside the vehicle files (I would extend this beyond just the vehicle's skin, but also to the little items in the interior that you really don't look at for more then a glance.

 

The alternative is to disable features introduced by 0.4, such as the ambient spawning system.

 

Realistically, the difference for most skins between a 2k and a 4k skin *ingame* is quite minimal, as you are extremely rarely looking at the vehicle with an eye for detail. Usually, your camera will be pulled well back, and you will only be glancing at the overall picture rather then the minute details (Even when approaching to get in, or placing a suspect in the vehicle, you will be looking at it from further away, and from odd angles compared to when you are inspecting the changed skin in openiv).

 

Furthermore, you certainly won't be staring at certain objects, such as a patrol carbine, or the rear of the interior, and they really don't need significantly sized textures.
