Post by crader224 »

So im new at making tracks and I have been working on one just as kind of a learn how to do it kind of thing nothing special and it is in the game as "Blank" how can I name the track my own name?? because I cant even make more tracks without naming this one because any time I try to download the blank track to make a new track it just is the same track. How can I name the track??? any information would be appreciated :)

You can just have the track folders name what you want it to be in game, but it's not good convention to have capital letters or spaces in the folder name. If you make a file that's named "desc" with no file extension, you can put in it whatever you want the track to show as in game.

Why would you want the files renamed? If you change the track folder name you will have to change the statues, decals, billboards etc. files to reflect the directory change.
