    I'm currently trying to import the Cherrier Vivace into an older version of BeamNG because I really like the car and would love to use it, and I currently am *almost* finished. Can anyone tell me where to find the file that holds the textures for all the cars so I can finnish it up and use it properly.

    first of all, since the vivace relies on many systems and files such as sounds, driving dynamics, models, etc. that were added later to the game, this option is not going to work well, if at all

    also, depending on the version you're trying to add it to, you may have to convert all the materials to use the .cs format to use them properly since json materials are relatively new

    overall, not recommended
    also btw, straight up reuploading game files are against the rules iirc

    Thank you. I was unaware that uploading game files is again is not allowed.

    I've got everything working fine and I'm actually using it right now. the only thing I need now is the textures. Thanks for the heads up on the format used today being relatively new.

    I'm determined to get it working since I really like the Cherrier Vivace and Tograc.

    also I would like to know where the texture file is because the only thing left is the texture and then I'll be out of everyone's hair

    Also not to be rude but telling modders what to do isn't kind. If I want to do this then (albeit for personal use) I can. No offense.

    You should be able to access the Vivace in the latest release of the game. The car itself wont work completely unless you have these updates, back porting the car to an earlier version is kinda fishy. If you bought the game on Humble Bundle you should be able to grab updates from that site. If you haven't bought the game you can do so from Steam, which has auto updates or Humble Bundle, which doesn't have auto updates but does not need a program like steam.

    Like I said, it's all done already (I did buy BeamNG). The ONLY thing I have left is the textures, I just want someone to tell me where the file is so I can finish this. That's it.

    Versions older than 0.17 only use .cs for textures, and 0.17 up uses .json in all official cars, vivace is no exception

    You do realize that I am only doing this because I can't use the latest version of the game, right?

    Plus I thought it would be a cool project

    you won't be able to use the textures since they were using .cs for textures back in the day but now they use .json

    it's not compatible

    it won't work

    hope it'll be clear

    it's literally impossible because both versions use different texture file types.

    It's impossible to get the Vivace on older versions of the game.

    You don't have to go through all this work so you can use the Vivace!
    The forums have a support section where you can find a lot of helpful threads that may help you use the latest version of the game, and if you can't find one relating to your specific problem you can always make a thread with the details of your problems. Also if you are interested in modding the game it's recommended to use the latest version in order to keep compatibility.

    probably because of their computer not supporting DX11.

    this reminds me of the ground deformation thread.
    Do it, but it won't work.
    Listen to us.
