AMS2 - User Livery Overrides

com“n @Renato Simioni let this one drop to your sim.
@Rob Thompson hold your hands

 

Well here I am also testing the issue of chrome and others.


What is not clear to me is if this is only informative or influences the final view and if so, the possible combinations that exist.

• BASELIVERY="Chrome">
• BASELIVERY="Default">
• BASELIVERY="Matte">
• BASELIVERY="GoldWheelsChromePaint">
• BASELIVERY="BlackWheelsMattePaint">

 

Copa Classic B Mini Custom livery override folder

I see the livery override folder for the Vintage Touring Car Mini and the Mini JCW but can someone direct me the the location of the custom livery override folder for the Copa Classic B Mini.

 

It isn't there natively, but you can make it work
add the subfolder;
mini_coopers_1965b
in the overrides folder and add a file called;
mini_coopers_1965b.xml

<LIVERY_OVERRIDE LIVERY="51" NAME="MINI Cooper S #99" BASELIVERY="Default">
<LIVERY_OVERRIDE LIVERY="52" NAME="MINI Cooper S #122" BASELIVERY="Default">

 

Here the CART-1998 Liveries update for F-USA Gen2 + Oval-Versions 0.9.9
Since only one template is used for the liveries it is a compromise between the different car track versions!!!

 

issue of „Chrome“ ?
To me there isn t a issue atm. I can support you so we generate more nice new-shader skins.
Yes the
BASELIVERY="Chrome">
BASELIVERY="Matte"
is important.

BASELIVERY="GoldWheelsChromePaint">
BASELIVERY="BlackWheelsMattePaint">
means shader + wheelcover e.g. BMW M1

If you familar with dds, DXT and alpha-channel PM me for support

 

For the life of me I can’t get formula Vee skins to work -downloaded off raceroom

not interested in Ai files
On YouTube one vid said I have to change a file so ams2 selects the new inserted liveries but I couldn’t find this file

is there up to date simple instructions ?

I thought it would be just drags & drop

thanks in advance

 

Thank you very much Xela1.
I will have to try the shader + wheelcover in this same car, in others it didn't work or I didn't do it well.

The truth is that I have no knowledge of dds, DXT and alpha channel. The only thing I use for the skins is photoshop, DTX I only accept by default to save in DDS.

Sorry, I'd like to help.

Sorry my English but that's google.​

Thanks again

 

try this one...
Formula Vee - Vodafone

unzip the vehicles folder into this folder location
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Automobilista 2

 

brill ok I try thanls
Your instructions is how I imagine it should be done
Fingers crossed

 

Thanks - very helpful

 

Hi @Rob Thompson there is a Mini Cooper (2020 Version) with a very beautiful green shining in the game. Can you tell me how you did the color and shader shema of that shimmering green effect? That is the one I mean with “metallic” what is currently missing as a shader-access - isn t it? Thx i a

 

Also wondering this, having a hard time getting my head around the settings needed.

I can get chrome, and ican get matte, how do I get metallic or a satin look, I haven't been able to stumble upon those setting just yet... the reflections always appear to be very sharp and shiny...

to feed the wonderful AMS2 with chrome
to tease the talent skinners out there - a mere metallic-shader-access is still missing ….

This "Ford" just does not look right...

 

Cos it aint a ford

 

Been playing around with the chrome shaders...

 

I see you lost the gameplay- no chrome in sight.

switch BASELIVERY to „Chrome“
Try this: Grey RGB 107 107 107 on your painted dds. Grey RGB 209 209 209 on your specular-dds and there DXT5 and alpha-channel white.

Fresnel-dds full black on the parts u wanna „chrome“. Other white, save DXT1

 

Danke, I've been looking for the right grey settings and will give that a go, otherwise my settings are the same...

I've been struggling to get matte black to work as well... Matte and chrome colours no issues though...
