HOW TO ADD SKINS TO DTRSC
1.YOU NEED TO KNOW WHERE TO ADD THEM.
THE DEFAULT LOCATION IS,
C:\PROGRAM FILES\RATBAG\DIRT TRACK RACING - SPRINT CARS\
DATA\SKINS
2.FILES NEEDED TO ADD A SKIN,
TEXTURE.TGA
SKIN.STR
3.GO INTO THE DATA FOLDER AND CREATE A NEW FOLDER CALLED
skins
4. GO INTO THE skins FOLDER AND CREATE A NEW FOLDER
AND NAME IT ANYTHING YOU WANT,I USE THIS FOLDER NAME
TO LET ME KNOW WHO THE SKIN IS, LETS SAY THIS IS A KINSER
SKIN,NAME THE FOLDER kinser
5.GET THE FILES texture.tga,skin.str AND ADD THEM INSIDE
THE kinser FOLDER.
6.OPEN UP THE kinser FOLDER AND YOU SHOULD SEE
texture.tga
skin.str
CREATE A NEW FOLDER CALLED textures
7.ADD THE texture.tga TO THE textures FOLDER
8.OPEN THE skin.str WITH NOTEPAD
9. THIS IS WHAT YOU SHOULD SEE
car = Sprintcar Mopar
specular = 0.250000
number font = babyelpur
car = IS THE IMPORTANT LINE
VALID INPUTS FOR car =
Sprintcar Mopar
sprintcar furr
sprintcar green
sprintcar swindell
NOW GO DOWN A LITTLE AND YOU SHOULD SEE THIS,
[display names]
english = Green Reaper
french = Green Reaper
german = Green Reaper
italian = Green Reaper
spanish = Green Reaper
YOU CAN CHANGE THE english = LINE TO ANYTHING YOU WANT
THIS FOR DISPLAY ONLY NOT VITAL.
IF YOU FOLLOWED THIS GUIDE YOUR SKIN SHOULD NOW WORK.
THE REST IS NOT FOR NEWBIES
10. LOOK DOWN A LITTLE MORE AND YOU SHOULD SEE THIS,
[shop]
num cars = 2
OR THIS
[shop]
num cars = 1
IF YOU HAVE A skin.str FILE THAT HAS num cars = 1
THE ONLY PLACE IT WILL SHOW UP IS IN QUICK RACE.
11.A LITTLE CHEAT FOR num cars = 2
GO DOWN AND FIND THIS LINE
[shop car 1]
cost = 54000
CHANGE THE cost = 5400 to 1
cost = 1
AFTER CHANGEING THIS LINE WHEN YOU GO TO BUY THIS CAR
IT WILL ONLY COST YOU 1 DOLLAR.
12.IF YOU HAVE A skin.str FILE WITH num cars = 2
LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TWO
EXAMPLE
[shop car 0]
compound available = {1,1,1,1,1}
THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN
[shop car 1]
compound available = {0,0,1,0,0}
IF YOU CHANGE
[shop car 1]
compound available = {1,1,1,1,1}
YOU WILL NOT HAVE BUY ANY TIRES FOR THIS SKIN.
YOU CAN CHANGE THE OTHER LINES TOO,
13.MAKE A FEW CHANGES THEN CHECK YOUR WORK,
DONT MAKE A HUNDRED CHANGES THEN CHECK YOUR WORK,
YOUR GOING TO GET ERROR MESSAGES AND IF YOU MAKE A COUPLE OF CHANGES AND GET AN ERROR MESSAGE YOULL KNOW RIGHT WHERE TO GO TO FIX IT.
