When opening a dds file make sure you open without displaying mipmaps.

You will have to edit both dds files, the vinyl and the mask.
The mask is always 2 colored, black background and some white area. The black area appears transparent on the car, whereas the white area will be used by the vinyl. In case of one colored and manufacturer vinyls, the mask and the vinyl must be the same.

There are various techniques available in editing vinyls, depends on the program you use. You must be careful only about this: Only use the colors that were in the dds file before you edited it. If you use any other colors, the game will crash when you load the vinyl.

When you finish editing, save it back to dds using ARGB 8bit pallete.



4. Importing back to the game
Go to BinTex again, select the vinyl you exported before, click on Texutres - Import. Do the same for mask vinyl. Then click on save. The vinyl should be ready in the game.
Note that the names of vinyls are not the same as in game. So be sure to check all vinyls in the game from the group you edited.

If you experience a crash of the game when you select your vinyl in game, go back to step 3 and try to fix the dds images.

u need dds plugins, adobe photoshop, bintex!
