This was super helpful thanks! Does take a bit of trial and error like you said, thankfully I put everything into layers so I can easily adjust later. Just throwing a couple of other free photo editors you can use. I use a combination of Krita and GIMP, both free Open Source software if you're like me and do editing for a hobby and dont want to pay photoshop prices. I use those two for pretty much all my mods for other games.

Most likely when You flattened your layers into the final export file some layers may have been left in the project unpainted or changed. I had the same issue. Unfinished parts of the truck made it into my mod. It's all about the layers and making sure each one is colored exactly the way you want it and flattening down nice and organized. Either that or maybe you didn't edit a selectable template in your game like you thought. I also did that today so I'd start with those. Hope that helps. Just double check your work if you haven't already. It happened to me.

I don’t know if there is a way to paint the glass. I haven’t seen that before. As for the fenders. If you want the fenders to be a specific color. Just paint that section of the template the color you want them to be. If you are not sure where the fenders are at in the template you might have to play around with it till you figure it out. I plan on putting a video out about the different portions of the template and identifying the fenders, bumper, grill etc. Check out my other videos that talks about doing metallic skins.

@subshooter34 жыл бұрын
You kind of can edit skins that are already formatted for the game. You can extract the .dds image of the skin and open it in whatever editor you want (i use paint.net). It should open as a "Background Layer". Once you have it opened all that you can do is add layers to it but you cannot actually edit the background layer. (If it had text or something that you wanted to change, what you can do is add a layer above the mod skin with whatever text you want and then just merge. I hope that helps.
