    Like @Racinglegend1234 said my Previews where done by Reiza. But there is still another way but that is a bit more difficult.

    Just take a screenshot from that angle, rebuild that car in Photoshop with Alpha Masks as a blank/white car with shading and lighting and redo the livery for that so it perfectly aligns with the one you created. That was my old way of doing Previews before I got the opportunity by Reiza. This is just a short explanation of how it's done. The process is a bit more complex but it's doable.
    This way you can also add tire brandings. I also do this so my skinpack has soft and medium runners in the Previews.

    Does anybody has done a custom livery for the Lambo GT3 Evo2 yet?
    My livery is not showing, the car is only in full carbon.

    in theory, for the tires issue, you could snap a screenshot of a car without skin and, on photoshop, apply the tires with logo over all the other cars.
    Obviously this is another trouble to add to a process that is already difficult, cause the limitation of the showroom camera :mad:;)
    Luckily seems that the tires issue is near to be solved.:hurrayreiza:

    I'll get another UV exported and make a new template, see if that helps with alignment. As far as resizing goes though, even when we work on a template that is 4096x6144 we always resize down to 4096x4096 when we've finished a design just for the sake of saving some graphical resources.

    @Rob Thompson

    Is there a template available for the Ultima GTR street car? I just see the template for the Ultima race spec.

    Quick little follow up to this 992 override post. The template dl has been updated further to include a new lightglass_drl_glow texture. "GLASS" override line has been added and waiting for release.

    I've never had a template sent to me for that car tbh. It uses just paint materials rather than standalone designs. Race version template should suffice though.

    Yeah, it should do. It came direct from the artist who did those liveries, i wasn't tasked with painting that car this time around.

    EDIT: I've just been sent a freshly exported UV. Comparing it to the other, there is a slight drift down by a few pixels, nothing too major but i'll get the template dl updated regardless.

    You mean that the template of the race version should match the one for the street spec? Because I can deny that, the template doesn't match. Unfortunately I can't create skins for the street spec this way, is there no way to get the open psd with uv map for the Ultima Street spec?

    Hi @Rob Thompson, sorry to tag you again but I've got another question if you don't mind: What should the folder for the Convertible version of the 1973 Corvette be called under Vehicles > Textures > CustomLiveries > Overrides so that I can select textures? The folder for the tintop Corvette is called “chevrolet_corvette_c3_rc”.

    SuperV8 - NASCAR Liveries
    Helmets and Suits update !
    All 34 helmets and suits for the SuperV8 - Nascar Liveries are now released !

    P.S. unfortunately there is a limitation with how the suits work and the sponsors on the left arm are mirrored. Unless Reiza makes it so that each arm is a separate item there is nothing that can be done about this.
    Base pack liveries:

    Days of Thunder Addon:

    I also re-worked the Richard Petty STP livery, by default it is now the 1982. The 1973 livery is still within the "overrides" folder as optional.

    FWIW I was able to get the template to match when I copied it into a blank 4096x6144 and stretched the UV from 4073 or something like that to 6118 so it was 4070ishx6118. Fit perfectly after that.

    Good call on that one, i don't think proper override folders have been set up for that. It will be chevrolet_corvette_c3_rcc once it goes live though as opposed to chevrolet_corvette_c3_rc

    If the template comes in 4096x4096 from the get go, it doesn't need resizing up.

    Hmm weird I'll show the difference I saw between the two with the UV when I get back to my PC tonight or tomorrow.
