Ok...been painting cars for all sorts of racing games and have been used to converting to DDS files but I am having no luck with rFactor. I keep getting a corrupted file that will not display in the game. I have searched for tutorials but found none detailed enough. I created my own car folder, I just need help with what layers must be on when flattening the image and what the setting are in the DDS converter.

Thanks for any help. (Klr?)

tomb, just get with me when you get the chance when you see me on and ill help you in any way that I can, but just make sure you flatten your image, convert to dds, make your text file for your car and you should be good , you can look at the file I sent you on my car, copy the text file and replace the text with what you need in there, when you look at it it will be easy to figure out. Catch me and ill help you out.

Thanks, the problem is the saving as DDS file. I must be picking the wrong type, the wrong alpha, or something cuz my DDS file does not look like yours. I will try and catch you on later...thanks again.
