    im been trying to make textures for my mod and it works but every time I look in console and I see a error that says unable to load compressed texture with non pow2 size its a DDS file when I tried a PNG it also worked and had no errors and I use paint.net to convert the PNG to DDS if that had anything to do with it I put the png in so maybe someone can figure it out and same with the json

    The size of the texture should be the same as all the other texture sizes on all the cars. It might end up becoming huge with a lot of unused space, that's why it makes sense to put textures for multiple parts in 1 image.

    Like 100x100, in this case it will probably be something like 1024x1024 or 2048x2048

    thank you so much now i don't have errors and while I'm here what is the difference between .json and .cs only difference I see is the .cs has better error decoding and has simpler coding and what's going to be the standard or recommended type?

    CS doesn't have PBR support so it's useless now, use Json.
