Track Decals

Post by ShowtimeMx »

Ok so i have spent forever trying to figure out the whole decal thing and i have searched the forums but i cant figure it out.
i was wondering if someone would write up a step by step tutorial of how to use the decals in the editor?

-Make sure your track folder name has no spaces in it
-Put all of your decals into the track folder
-Make a new file in something like Notepad++, and put in lines like the following
[x-coord z-coord] angle size aspectratio @trackname/decalname.png
eg [1000 1000] 0 40 1 @oldgoldberry/dirtbase.png
-Save file as decals
-Put 'decals' in track folder
-In game, they should appear in the coordinates you had written.
-Click on the decals function in the menu thing of the editor
-There will be 4 different subfunctions available. Flow, Flow2, Copy, Random. Choose which one you like.
-With a decal selected, drag the mouse, and decals will follow where you move.

Simple

When you are hovering your mouse over the ground in the editor it should come up with the coordinates down the bottom.

First on is x axis
2nd on is height
3rd is y

Well im pretty sure of those. Anyway when you get the x and y at 1000 each thats the point (if you are using a scale like 0.5.... 1000 1000 will be off the map
