Making a car use car colors

[ravenmorpheus]

Hi

How do I make a car use car colors. I have the line in the car colors file correct but the car I've downloaded still spawns with the "design" it's been painted with in the .txd file.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

If you've already tried making changes in the carcols.dat file and didn't notice any changes, it's likely because the creator of the 3D-model didn't set it up to use the game's primary/secondary/etc. color schemes. In a case like this, your choices are to live with it, find another or manually change the 'design' in the .txd file to another color if you really want something else.

If all else fails, you could try contacting the maker of that vehicle...
