Cutouts are only for graphics. You can put a cutout in game but you should put it on a diffuse first

What he means is put it on a model, just saying this i case you don't know the terminology, a diffuse map is a texture map for a 3D object, not the model itself

No...

What he means is that cutouts only have bike graphics not the other components and no shading or any other detail. You need to merge your cutout with the rest of the template to make a diffuse map of your graphics.

I'm not replying after this because I'm not going to have a argument with u over this haha, but all I was trying to do was explain what Nick meant by a diffuse map, because if he didn't know that you need to put graphics on a model before putting them in game then I doubt he would know what a diffuse map is, I wasn't trying to be a dick...
