Custom Liveries Tool - Livery Manager and Livery Package Export

[McKiernan]

Seems to be all cars. I've tried Formula A with downloaded skins and your test skins. Main car i'm wanting to change is the Ford Falcon FG. Have tried Stock Car and Ford Escort too. All have same issue. Whenever i use the tool with a custom skin (or even a vanilla skin and nothing else), it happens. If i disable everything the problem goes away. If i use the single custom livery method built into the game with vanilla AI cars, it works fine. Got me all confused. This is my first post ever in the forums - i can usually figure this stuff out myself but nah, not this time Download was quick and seemed fine. I extract with 7-Zip and run everything as admin. Everything seems to be fine and plays fine except these missing/invisible visuals...

Just a thought, but is it possible that the resolution of your custom liveries is set too high? For example many of my custom livery .dds files are at 4096x4096 which my PC runs fine, although the recommended resolution is 2048x2048. Just trying to eliminate possible issues here.

Not sure. I haven't made any skins myself, just downloaded them and they all work as a single custom livery and crowtrobot's demo skins have the same issue..... and they all appear fine on AI cars. Seems strange that i'm the only one with this problem. Give me a white textures problem that i can fix lol. They work, they load, but only once. Second session or replay and BAM, invisible parts

Just to be clear. All skins load in the menu. I pick a car and start a practice or qualifying. Skins load fine. i can do 40 laps and return to pits - still fine. Only when i watch a replay or start the next session, do car parts go invisible. Skin is still there on the rest of the car and on all AI cars, just a missing bumper or bonnet on my car - it's never the doors, windows, lights, roof or wheels, only ever front or rear bumper and bonnet or boot - sometimes one, sometimes all of them

Damnit I'm outta guesses then, hope you can get it sorted.

@doctor drift:

Have you tried Reset All and adding again? It's really odd that it works fine for one session but not another. Sounds like parts are getting unloaded from memory somehow. I may have an idea, will PM you with a file.

Hello guys ! this tool is great i've made my personal gt3 grid for all gt3 in game and it works ! but when i want to race with the custom grid all ai cars are white :/ how can i make this work because i follow every steps and liveries works for my car and custom grid tool is before custom liveries in jsgme don't really understand :/

I think Mediafire hates me. I suspect I'm getting a corrupted download again as when I use the tool everything is fine until I load a custom livery folder. Once I click on a folder to load (e.g. aston_martin_vantage_gt3) the tool closes. I have not done anything differently to the previous version which worked perfectly.

Yes, i've tried resetting each livery set and resetting all to no avail Will check my PM

Your paktest didn't have any apparent effect, crowtrobot Same issue is present

Also, i greatly appreciate any help you've given and will give me, crow, thank you.

I take it back, Mediafire might hate me, but the download wasn't the problem, just loading the Aston Martin GT3 liveries seems to be the issue, the other cars worked fine. Puzzled.

Hey,
I dont downloaded the new version, 'cuz everything worked fine for me with the old version.
I love both of your tool's, this weekend I drove 24h Nordschleife (GT3, GT4, Clio Cup) just with real liveries (VLN & 24H) and it was AWESOME. I'm in the Z4 (Marc VDS) won, Rowe (SLS) went second and third place was the R8 (WRT). In GT4 BMW won aswell, then too Aston Martin GT4's. Next 24h race: Spa =3

I've just tested with Stockcar 90 and the included FA liveries - worked.

Order was:
- Make Livery modifications using the Custom Livery Tool.
- Activate Custom Livery Tool via JSGME.
- Run Custom Grid Tool. Click Activate, leave running.

I take it back, Mediafire might hate me, but the download wasn't the problem, just loading the Aston Martin GT3 liveries seems to be the issue, the other cars worked fine. Puzzled.

Double check that the Aston GT3 directory doesn't have any files with funny characters, trailing spaces, or any additional material like -copy files or .jpgs or something. I had to tighten up control on the file naming in the last version, but I clearly didn't do a good enough job handling unexpected inputs. Will be making this more robust in the future.
