HEy, could someone please tell me how to load a custom skin?
I made the MX5 skin in Photoshop. What is this .TGA business? I did not now so i just renamed the PSD file (CustomerID).TGA. then i placed it inside the docs>iracing>paint>car>mx5 folder. .... Opened the game with the Mx5 and didnt get the livery to showup. It had the standard one you paint online

from what I can tell you are doing it right EXCEPT you DO NOT want to "rename" the file extension. If you just rename it, Windows does not know you renamed it so the file extension stays the same. You should "SAVE AS" a (CustomerID).tga (TARGA) also save it as a 24bit with RLE(optimization) checked.

also what Jav said above. Don't hide the file extension.
 
I love Rob's skin that he did for me re the MX5, I still use the car but I am also driving the Skip now, couldn't see any good Skip liveries in this thread - no Skippy love? :(
 
No skippy love from me. The OTM really gave me a bad taste in my mouth with that car. I spent many, many hours and research trying to keep that car on the track, and still was not really enjoying the car. Maybe the NTM will change my view once again.

But I'm feeling creative today, so what colors/scheme would you want?
 
Here's the Star Mazda livery my team uses:

We use a similar one for the Skippy, I'll post pics some other time.

I wouldn't mind the red bull F1 look, but if its too complicated, any classic F1 car style would be great like the Senna Lotus but perhaps that will be a bit hard. I am a F1 fan, both modern and classic if that helps.

On trading paints there is already the marlboro and benetton livery so none of those please :)
 
Yeah painters dont often give away skins for Skippy, SRF, etc which is a bit odd for such a popular car. I gave up and just made my own too and posted the pic in this thread awhile ago (netflix skippy)


That vette looks amazing

So I got tired of trying to find a free Skippy skin. Whipped this up right quick. might add details later cause its a bit too plain atm

New Trans Tasman Racing V8 Supercars for 2012. Thanks to Andrew Osier (KustomImage Concepts) for the liveries.

They all look sick in my opinion!
 
Damn! Those look pretty badass Mad! Love them! Specially the Speedhunters one awesome work!
 
Jav
Well sir, you've done an excellent job! They look awesome!

Yeah the Speedhunters one was by Bigfish and the TT-R designs and the Coles car at the bottom were done by another friend of mine. Nonetheless, they are all absolutely amazing liveries. 👍

Version 0.5 of an Evangelion itasha skin I'm making. It's not quite professional looking enough for me yet, but it's getting there.

First paint in which I feel its pretty finished. Is it possible to paint the roll cage in the mustangs?

Ok, so I started working on a skin for the Skippy, based on the Classic Alitalia paint scheme. It is still a WIP, so it doesn't have a lot of details and I'd like to hear what you think about it.
