I'm pretty sure blender is just not seeing we're your textures are.. Try creating a folder in the same directory as your fbx named texture... And copy your textures into there...

3dsimed creates that folder and places the textures in it, also where Blender looks for them. the issue I am having is for example sanity check, i grab a kn5 (one i previously compiled and runs in AC, see all the textures in 3dsimed, when i export i get (ex) 50 textures, but, some missing, road, maybe grass etc.. so, delete content of textures folders, and export again, this time 45 textures only, but the road one is in with them, repeat next time maybe 55 textures.. etc etc.. so my workflow now, is export-export-export-export, at least 4 times seems to be the trick to get all the textures together, even then sometimes an errant one is missing and I CBF'd so i just replace it manually with a texture from some other track.
for AMS tracks I can work around it by manually copying the textures from the ams export into said textures folder, which is ok for rfactordec.exe type stuff, but when you opening a KN5 you dont have access to those textures to do that.
maybe the version of 3dsimed is buggy, ill reach back the the dev and see if its something flaky about my setup or version. Id reinstall, except 3dsim never installs..

This car has a great look but I've been unable to do a complete lap on the Nordschleife. The suspension are way too soft IMHO, then I tried to increase the spring rate but it doesn't really help. >:-/ Also when braking hard, the car wants to rotate and it sends you to mow the lawn of the Eifel mountains. It looks like a great car though, so I hope it will be improved.

3D Studio Max and Blender Tutorials -- ARIMUS 3D on Youtube
If anyone wants to learn more about 3DSMax or Blender, Arrimus 3D on Youtube probably offers the best tutorials you can find. He's very good and thorough. Of course, there's a lot of tutorials, and you'll need to commit some time, but if you want to push your mod-work to a higher level, it'll be worth it.
I watched many of his 3Ds Max tutorials a few years ago, and it changed the way I created models for animation, architectural, and Unreal Studio projects. He started introducing Blender tutorials the beginning of this year.
Now that he offers Blender tutorials, it gives me more of an incentive to consider using it as an alternative to 3Ds Max. Hopefully I can adapt as AutoDesk/3Ds Max does just about everything their own way--very clunky interface with little thought to make it more intuitive, inefficient procedures, etc. While it's still considered the "industry standard," Blender has come into its' own the past few years and Unreal Studio "supports" it. Also, it's free (but don't forget to donate if you can), not $700+ for a 3Ds Max "subscription" that can hold your projects at "ransom" if you can't renew it each year.

I am also getting this error when trying to drive the Diablo JGTC, loads up but when I press the the steering wheel to start I get a crash with that error. Works fine as an ai car, shame as that's my favourite car of the bunch, anyone have any ideas for the fix?

@Jimlloyd -- It almost goes without saying, I think your work and the tracks you produce are some of the best we have for AC. Everyone knows this, and I'm excited to read any new posts about your work, and of course, new releases. For you, doing all the additional work to make your tracks so stellar in quality is probably "easy" for you (though it's still a lot of work). It's obvious you've gained the experience and know what you're doing.
@__EASY__ -- I've been "following" your work as, a few months ago, you released quick updates with VAO patches, grassFX, and other modifications to several existing tracks. Then recently you started converting tracks from older sims. To me, you're skill to produce mods has progressed and improved, and I, and many others appreciate this. Any other work that anyone takes the time to do, no matter what the level of quality should be appreciated. What you're producing now is pretty good, and I expect with time, you'll learn how to "perfect" them, and your conversions and mods will get better and better.
If I were to criticize anything about your mods, the first thing I'd mention is that the low-poly edges of the visible track, specifically around corners, needs to be updated. This is carried over from tracks from older sims where you had to keep the poly-count lower. They aren't smooth and rounded, as newer tracks should be for AC. Updating this would require doing some more advanced modeling work to smooth those corners. The easiest approach would be using a smoothing modifier to exponentially increase the polygon count. For example 3D Studio Max has MeshSmooth, TurboSmooth and other modifiers. They're very powerful if you learn how to use them, and I'm sure Blender has something similar (haven't really used it yet myself).
Of course, once you do this, the road textures/materials would need to be re-mapped, and while doing so, you should model the white track side-lines and other markings separate from the track itself, as this improves how they render in AC's engine, especially in VR. With that then, you'll need to learn how to conform these to the track surface (it's really not that difficult, but there's still a learning curve).
Overall, I greatly appreciate your work, and I notice when it's obvious you've learned something and it starts showing up in your new mod releases.

I've run into this with car models - never noticed it with tracks. The issue seems to be that 3DsimED doesn't save all the texture files from an initial conversion. Easy solution is to use the missing texture search in tools, and add all the missing ones to the texture folder in use just prior to saving. Drives me nuts when I forget to do that and lose all the pretty colours...

right image is significantly sharperThe only difference from my BAD eye can tell is that the front dark blue Lambo light reflections looks odd for left hand side.

You do have a valid point and that is true, sorry. Here are 2 pictures from before and after directly from the CM Showroom, so that the comparison is in the same terms:

Yes! I can see you can read that only AI works! but I found the model with which it makes the skin. I'm seeing if I can attach it!

Thank you for adding the '(rear)' to the picture, we could get confused with the front.
I'm joaking, please don't get me wrong.

If you don´t enable FXAA in AC the CSP´s PP in CM won´t work. First point. So keep it enabled:
Second point: TAA enabled with extra sharpness disabled, together with CMAA 2.0 and FidelityFX Cas byAMD enabled gives the best image in AC.
Third point: disable AF in AC but enable it in NVIDIA CPL (16x). Set MSAA to 4x or even 8x in AC and set MFAA enabled in NVIDIA, too.

Has anyone the mods for these REMARKABLE cars below?
REAR ENGINE FWD!!!
Ignore the last one though... it was never built but the ones above...
It would be REAL FUN to drive one of those in AC...

Does anybody here know how to crack Car Data Encryption? I'm racing in a league using the Apex Indy cars and they burn 8 liters of fuel a lap at Laguna Seca, have a 70 Liter tank and take about two and a half minutes to refuel. We want to change the fuel fill timing and burn but I opened the car up and it's been encrypted.
