    are you asking for help or for people to do the work for you? you make it sound like the latter.

    regardless, i took a look.

    it looks like the materials are written, as i'm getting "no texture" and not "no material." by the looks of it, your file paths and names aren't correct. ("vehicles/pickup/sqr/textures/sqr" does not exist, yet seems to be referenced every time)

    if you want to map certain meshes to pickup textures and materials, it'd be a case of creating the uv maps to match up and matching up the materials in blender. not a very difficult job, and no materials writing required. this is my personal go to for something quick and slapped together, since the uv map can be simple as a dot mapped in a body coloured or chrome part depending on the piece. if you really wanted to get fancy, the squarebody is probably close enough to the point where you could make it compatible with skins by utilizing the second uv layer.

    it looks like your textures *are* there
    try running a replace in notepad for "vehicles/pickup/sqr/textures/sqr" to "vehicles/pickup/sqr/" in your materials.json file
