    Yeah of course the rest of the cars other than the 26 will have random stuff. Set as many cars as you have in the xml file. The game has to select liveries for the 48 cars you have put in the race (you can't have cars with no livery). So, it starts choosing from the AI file - and so the first 26 will be whatever you put in there. After that it will just fill out the class cars randomly. That's why you're getting other cars/skins. It doesn't just re-use the same ones.

    If that was how it worked, if you only put one name in the list it would just be a 48-car grid of one car and one name, which is obviously silly.

    Then you have an error in your XML somewhere. Trust me as someone who has literally said "I quadruple checked and there isn't any errors" I eventually found an error where I was missing a single symbol.

    Are you using multiclass? When I tried to do an N24 myself, I mixed it up a bit by adding Ligiers, GT4s, GT5s and Minis, and ended up realizing that, to make the GT3 Custom AI work properly and only choose the cars I wanted, I also needed to have a Custom AI file for every single class in the race. If any one of them didn't have a file, the GT3 one would choose random cars, some that I did want and some that I didn't.

    Also, the Valkyrie LMH override file doesn’t include a number plate override psd file for me

    On this car, the exterior banner is the same as the cockpit banner. By replacing the interior banner, you will also have the exterior one

    Re-download the template that is on the first page. The banner psd has been corrected today to make it simpler. Paint your banner as you like according to the template and at the end delete the wireframe layer, flatten everything and save as DXT5 + alpha. Then in the xml, replace the "BANNER" entry with your texture, it should appear in both exterior and cockpit view.

    Hi everyone, im having an issue with the GT3 aston. This is a shot of the livery. the areas with the Walkenhorst lettering dont show in game. Instead they are all carbon fiber. Same goes for the sides of the spoiler with the AMR. What am I doing wrong?

    I'm guessing those parts will have a different material assigned to them which is the carbon, I have come across this problem before and the only way to fix is to replace the materials, to do that you have to have access to the .rcf file

    Thanks I get what you mean I think (one of my first liveries). The vanilla liveries do cover these areas when i look at the DDS file. For now i guess ill work around these areas. Thanks again
