What is it that you are trying to do?

If you're making custom wheel textures I'll warn you it took me hours to figure out how to line the textures up

Yes, I'm trying to change the DDS file, but everytime I change the colour, the wheels turn black ?!

Spend a lot of time figuring it out, but I gave up, can't do it....

So I'm making moarrr stickers for now....

About to change the engine:

Added side skirts:

How she looks without paint and stickers (all stock parts, wheels are configured)

Here you can see how small the car is:

Use Paint.net (Google it) ... import the edited texture into Paint.net and export in .dds as DXT5

That should put you on the right track

I am using Paint.net

I'll try the DXT5 swap, that sounds new to me, I'll let you know if it worked.

Thanks.

I wish I could use your camo mod on the small solar panels, they make great spoilers for cars.

EDIT: Nope, I still get the black wheels.

What I don't understand is that the wheel itself isn't even in the image ?

I have no clue...

Enough for today, I'm going to a drive in and watch a movie.

Edit; I see I need to move the radio (that measures temperature aswell...)...

The car is done, but I'm not finished with it yet.

I want to give the wheels moarrr power en tune them for drifting.

[Triop]

KOONIGAN DRIFT TEST

It still needs more tuning for 4x4 drive, frontwheeldrive is the best way to drive and steer this car, but then it won't drift...

I think I'll park this for now and start on a new project.

[Triop]

Looking at some of my old cars, and I think I found a car that could need a fix-up:

First, lower the roof and replace those side panels.

Get rid of the headlights and tire change.

First test drive:

Ik going to make a small ramp and do some jumps.

Thanks, I didn't post any stuff today cause the forum seemed uninterested...

I miss the likes, not for the likes itself, but to let me know people like to see what I do in KSP.

I mean, if no one watches my post, then what is the point of posting.

Do you know if it will be fixed @Gargamel ?

I'm still doing loads of work though...#DAKAR2020

We hope so, due to a technical problem, likes have been (hopefully) temporarily disabled for most users.    But I fully agree, the likes are nice just to see people are reading what you wrote.

You mean disabled for everyone except the moderators? Don't think we can't see you guys stealthily liking each other's posts! ;D
