My Textures + Tips on making your own

Tracks need to start looking better. So I'm gonna try and help.

First off, here are the textures I have used for my tracks. Try to modify the colour of the dirt so every track doesn't look the same. Also, have a good look at the images to see what you could do to your own textures. Just remember, a lil' cred wouldn't go astray when releasing your track (if you use my textures that is) :wink:

Download Textures Here

Size, aspect ratio recommended, also recommended orientation setting:

grass: 35.0, 1.0, Random (I actually replaced JLV's grass in the blank track with this)
sand: 30.0, 1.0, Random
dirt-darkbrown: 40.0, 1.0, Random
dirt-darkbrown_lines: 40.0, 1.0, Flow
dirt-darkbrown_shortlines: 10.0, 2.0, Flow
dirt-redbrown: 32.0, 1.0, Random
dirt-readbrown_lines: 32.0, 0.5, Flow (change directions with every second decal to avoid noticable tiling) [yes, I accidentally spelt red wrong, you can change it]
dirt-redbrown_offtrack: 32.0, 1.0, Random
rockcliff1: 80.0, 1.0, Flow2
rockcliff2: 80.0, 1.0, Flow2


*Tips will be added later on*



One final thing:

I apologize for the ignorance, but where do you put the .PNG's once you DL them?

Put them in your track folder.

To get decals into the game, you need to put lines like this into a file called 'decals'

[x z] angle size aspectratio @trackfoldername/texturename.png

eg.

[52 692] 0 35.0 1 @mytrack/grass.png
