    I want to create something for the game, and since i don't know blender, and have yet to learn the world editor, i decided that making a decent pack for all vehicles, they all have diffrent colors! :)
    However, when i started, i found out that the .pc files are a bit confusing, hard to explain, but something i tried was to copy the "fullsize_c.dds" file and rename the new file "fullsize_c_red.dds", and inside the red.pc file, i tried to change fullsize_decals="none" into fullsize_decals="fullsize_c_red" . However, when i test the new configuration ingame, the car is still grey.

    Please any help? Or you can take my idea and do it yourself... Which would make me sad as i want to make something...
    Thanks for reading :)

    You are making way too much work for yourself. Open the materials.cs file in notepad, find "diffuseColor[2]" in the main vehicle material (in this case "fullsize") and change the value to whatever you like (it's "Red Green Blue Alpha"). Keep alpha at 1.

    I dont think you understood what i was trying to do, i was trying to create a pack where you have multiple car colors at once, and not 1 color, it's more fancy if you had like a red, and then a blue car racing for example...
    Anyways, i find it awesome that gabester himself replied to my post :D

    Oh and how did you join, BEFORE you even were born?
