Bike skinning/naming help

Post by beans319 »

I named my files as the following:
crf250v2018_fork_lower-T319.jm
crf250v2018_fork_upper-T319.jm
crf250v2018_frame-T319.jm
crf250v2018_swingarm-T319.jm
crf250v2018-T319.png
crf250v2018-T319_norm.png
crf250v2018-T319_spec.png

I used saf creater to turn these files into a saf and then put it in my mx sim folder. The skin will show under the crf2018 however when playing it shows as the stock crf2018 (not the graphic I photoshopped). I tried renaming the file without the 'v2018' and the skin would show up on the crf2009 although I had the same problem of not seeing my graphic but just the stock graphic. I tried using a few jm's (2016 yz Cycra, 2015CR) I also tried a two stroke jm and had the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this. thx

crf250v2018-T319.png on your actual png, you are missing the name of the skin, for example, it should read, crf250v2018-T319-NameOfSkin.png
