I was about to save, and the error message came up. I follow the directions, but did I miss anything? I selected the color format and and 'genereate ...' and still get that error. Any suggestions? How did you save yours?

thx guys, once i get the time........i got some really good ideas for unique vinyls 
@pacodog.........that's the only bit i got slightly confused at. you need to save it in P8 format as shown below.

HMM.... wierd. I did save it that way. I load the game and nothing changes... Say I was modifying a Wilwood vinyl - so I did, saved it under that name FOCUS_WILLWOOD and FOCUS_WILLWOD_MASK. Load the game - nothing. Does this work only with certain types of vinyls?... I am lost, this sucks, since I had a bunch of ideas... Now i am stuck!

each car has it's own vinyls.bin.............if you change the vinyl.bin in the skyline folder, it will only change for the skyline.

no probs.............i thought i should looks into the program incase anyone posted any questions about it anyway. nice car.

guys, this is interesting. I've been browsing through all the vinyls for one car (ford), and I found already included FORD LOGO vinyl, hood and sides. Very interesting, since I don't think anyone managed to unlock those. Looks like they kept some stuff out or something. I bet there's a manufacturer's vinyl for all the car makes. EA!
ok, after some more searching it appears there's about 38 types of uniquie vinils, and bunch of other great stuff we don't see. Man!

Not to be stupid ... But will everybody see your new VINYL if you are playing ONLINE ??? ... or its just for yourself?
Posted: 11 Jan 2004, 11:06

.... well, you only need 3 colors for editing the vinyls (RED, Green and Blue)... And it recognizes a small deviation from that. So it should be fine... on the unique ones -... I don't think there is a paletter from that, but if you open one of them - Photoshop imports it's pallete and anything u'll be further importing into that file will automatically convert into the right palette...

I dont have the save option: Palette RBG (8 bit)???
I use adobe photoshop, with the nvidia plugin.

Same problem here... Do you guys use Adobe Photoshop?The Gamer wrote:viper_gts wrote:thx guys, once i get the time........i got some really good ideas for unique vinyls

BinTex says:
"Texture has a format error! (Make sure P8 textures are in ?8R8B8G8 format.)"
When I select "8:8:8:8 ARGB (32 bit)" while saving in Photoshop, the error is gone, but he doesn't import the vinyl.
What's wrong and what can I do about it? =/
