    thats actually a pretty nice skin, also i just installed 2 different liveries and both of them were also invisible. i was trying to make the whole thing for you but i think theres a bug maybe?

    Oh also i looked up beamng skin tutorials and literally ALL of the new comments say that it doesnt work, so you did nothing wrong probably

    https://www.beamng.com/resources/skin-helper.15037/ (there might be something wrong with the files)

    idk how i got it to work but yeah, could have been the line ("globalSkin" : "skinname",) in the racetruck.jbeam file im not sure but i changed some things there.
    I tried to zip it but it breaks it if i do,
    i made alot of thing sure that i didnt do anything wrong. anyway heres the mod should unzip it and put it in unpacked.

    Edit: i packed it ingame and it still works but it doesnt put it into the repo folder. weird.
