It is suprisingly easy to make. TG themed custom skin for the Cooper S, complete with carbon fibre parts! LOL!

Nice stuff Rocket. Beat me to it. I've got TG skins on my to-do list, but it looks like you got a solid start on it. Would love to see more.

How did you make these? When I used to play GP2 there was a tool called GP2 Paint, which basically took the skin file as a single sheet and you could just alter colours on it - very easy but very cool for leagues.

Does this work for multiplayer (ie if you had customised your car but I had not would I see your customisation?)

This is the guide I used for skin making:
http://forum.rscnet.org/archive/index.php?t-229800.html

Personally I use Paint Shop Pro so the nvidia DDS plug-in doesn't work for me, so I downloaded this program to convert PSD to DDS:

You will also need the templates for the cars and you can download here(you need to registed for the forum):
TC-65: http://www.no-grip.net/index.php?cat...d=2&filenr=876
GTC-65: http://www.no-grip.net/index.php?cat...d=2&filenr=877
GTC-TC-76: http://www.no-grip.net/index.php?cat...d=2&filenr=878

....and a program that can read/write PSD files like Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro.

I think, In order for this to work on multiplayer. We will all need to have the custom skin assign to the same car. This skin I made was really just a test to see if it actually works.

Yes, the skin would need to be loaded onto every client computer. I'm not sure what other players would/wouldn't see if they haven't DL'd the skin(s).

They will see the default skin config for that particular car.
