    Hey guys, got a car I'm working on.

    I've set the material file up correctly, the same as vanilla ones are, but every material on the car appears grey or white. This includes some vanilla textures I borrowed.

    The interior of the car is supposed to have a carpeted texture, the dash is from the pessima so should work as well. Any ideas? Is it something to do with the export from blender?

    Cheers

    Oh right, so it's the diffuse map thats not showing...

    I'll take another look at mine and see if I can shed some light

    acc another thing, I've noticed that even if I delete the "main.materials.json" it still shows the same grey/white texture instead of the orange "no material" texture...

    hmm, I've jsut tried putting just one material into the c# format and it's the exact same again, it's almost as if the games defaulting everything to a generic material?
