    Since a few updates the thumbnail generator does not work anymore. It says nothing about this problem in the 0.15 discussion thread, and someone said it works fine for him. I did a reinstall with no mods and everything.
    When i use the app and click on generate thumbnail, it goes into the photo room and does not keep the car i selected, instead it goes back to default car and nothing happens. it should cycle through the configs in small windowed mode, but nope!

    It does work fine here too.


    Had ETK800 spawned, and it started cycling through all the configurations taking screenshots.

    Can confirm it works for me, too.

    Custom thumbnails for the Piccolina don't match the vanilla ones for this vehicle (POV seems to be lower, see pic), but works fine otherwise.

    I choose a car i want to make thumbnails of (no mods this time so no conflicts)
    and click on the orange field
    screenshot_2019-05-03_10-31-44.jpg

    it goes into the studio and thats it, nothing happens, and it gets back to default car
    screenshot_2019-05-03_10-31-59.jpg
    And the same thing happens when i click on the orange field in the studio again.


    i did a fresh reinstall yesterday, no mods are in currently

    Might be related to the 'Stay on Map' not being selected, so it's loading a new level and loading your default. We will check.

    A workaround is to make the vehicle you want your default, it should work.

    But what if i want a photo studio background on my pics like the stock configs have.

    -side question-
    The studio is currently dark and i have a white version in my mods and made a thread about how to make it white, but why did you guys didn't gave us a white studio in the first place, so every thumbnail for modders looks like the stock configs?
    old example:

    When `Stay on current map` is not selected it will load another map and them your default vehicle instead of the one you currently had.
    For now load manually the showroom and activate `Stay`

    I will try to see if we can release that map and fix those bugs as i merge both maps (white bg is better for vehicle selector, but you need dark bg for garage as the windows will look weird)

    maybe release some documentation on how to setup the camera in the settings files ...

    I'm not sure it's possible as of now, although it would certainly be a nice feature to have :)
