Installing Bikes

Post by BiGnOsE »

Hi,

First of all, I'd like to say that I hate having to ask for help because I usually get things done all by myself. :oops:

I just purchased the full game and installed the 1.6 version.
I downloaded the "2010 YZ250F+YZ125+WR250F" package from the "Necessary Models" section.
Wheter I unzip the "2010yz250f - by DJ.saf" file in my personal folder, or directly in the game folder, the bike does not adds to the bike selection menu.

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks for helping,

nothing. the bikes wont show up in the bike selections. it is simply a model. does not change the game menu. if you goto the yz250 in game and go to your bike graphics you will see it in there.

OK, Thanks.

It now works, but i'm a little bit confused. My first tought was that a model is a "new bike" and a Skin was graphic.

How can I apply a donloaded skin to the model ?
Same thing, my skin is in the folder, cannot find it in game.

Thanks again,

Sorry for being noob at this.

Hi MX PRODIGY 17,

Thanks for the post, however I understand very well where to copy the files, what I don't understand, is how to find the added content in the game.

I added model, the 2010 YZ250F, and now that you told me the it's only a graphic for the YZ's... I can see/use it.
I downloaded the Skin for the 2011 SE YZ250F to apply on the 2010 model (Since it's the same bike), and I cannot find it in game... There is no graphic showing the 2011 skin i just installed.

How can I choose the skin for the model from the game itself, since the files are already in my personal folder.

Thanks for your answers,

a skin is basically a model. say in game it is called crf2502012-Geico Honda

the crf2502012 part is the model. so you need to have that model downloaded in order to see the bike.
the second part (geico honda) is the skin. you need to have the model in your personal folder to see the graphics.

hope i explained it well enough,
