WIP Beta released 98-11 Ford Crown Victoria v2.9.5 (28/01/2025)

Well this video: , did use notepad++ for the .dds file

 

Maybe try to watch the video you’re linking.
smh

 

What would the lore friendly badges help with?

 

Hey do u use paint.net if so how do u use it for skins?
or do i need to download notepad++?

 

Well... Paint.net is the software you create the "picture" or texture and notepad++ is used for the files necessary

 

but u need a .dds file so i think u need to type (wateveruwant.dds)

 

i use Paint.net alone, because i just copy from a file.

 

But for me the (.dds) is weird

 

Yeah where's the problem Paint.net does .dds

 

going off of what what he was saying, some people would rather have lore branding (gavril/bruckell) as it would fit in the lore and not break the immersion, personally I like lore brands more as well but again it is completely up to you if you decide to do it or not.

 

Paint.net. It's free.
You can use .PNG with Beam, but .DDS is preferred because it compresses better "saves spaced when in a .zip"
If you use .PNG, BeamNG converts it to .DDS anyway as a temp file, so .DDS can save load time.
When you "save as" in paint.net, you can choose to save it as .DDS.

 

I LOVE THIS MOD ANYWAY! THE CROWNVIC IS THE W THE GOAT MY CHILDHOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

heres a file, just unzip and it should be self explanatory

 

crownvic is in the pic spot it?

 

remember to unzip it so you can edet the skinUV

 

Well then you won't be able to access the contents of the zip folder properly

 

Back on topic bros

 

look, all you do is put it in the mod folder go to the mod page in the game go to your mod manager and unpack it. it will show up in the unpacked file in the mod folder, from there all you do is make the skin, edit the "Skin Exmp" to what the skin name is and you're good.

 

and thats now i make my own?
