You will need to open the shading file and change the dimensions of the shading file to the displacement map. It will most probably be 1025x1025 or 2049x2049huntermx4 wrote:hey DJ when i went into the game and selected the track it says "bad shading demensions (1025x1025).any suggestions?

You're going to have to use a paint program that outputs PPM files. If you use notepad for image editing you truly have mad skillz.
