So... apparently TDU2 can't update to the most current build with DLC2 anymore? I get the "Error 01" crap.

Maybe the original gang of @Nobby or @fo0k could help me out?

and.. its no longer flagged.

the thread regarding the tducam tweak was the reason. and the rar file with the tducam.exe
It flagging as malware.. its not.. but Ive deleted it so we should be good now.

why is this site flagged again as an 'unwanted software site'?

Is this trolls.. or is there some crap on the site I am not aware of..

@ Hangya Hiya! welcome to the mad house

@Six-Shooter. Well the site is about 8 years old now and the game has been dead for at least two of those. You can hardly expect to ge tthe same amount of sign-ups as we did say 4 years ago..

Did a quick test of this.. covered entire texture in green for a cinque to see if it would fill in the gaps..

turns out you can paint the whole thing

without hacks.. just a local texmod swap.

Oh god awesome, I might have to put my F livery into a Cinque, and add the spoiler decal.

I would have to guess that the whole F, Roadster F, and Tricolor are paintable too...

Are these car paintable/stickable from beginning? Can't remember lol..

And about the Bugatti, I can't figure out a way of how it shuold work to use whole-vinyl on them. Because when you load the new texture into the game you have to restart the game to be able to see them, am I wrong? And when you restart the game, the Bugatti won't be stickable again (you need to get into the stickershop and put a sticker on somewhere, you know..)

Cinque is stickable but only the side panels normally..

You put the texture onto a golf...(for example)
it will look messed up.. But when you turn it to bugatti it will fit perfectly (and won't need texmod running..)

very easy solution but also had me thinking for a while heheh!

also..

dont get hopes up for transfer of F livery to cinque just yet.
these unpaintable areas of cars seem to just use a tiny square (if not a single pixel) of colour on the texture to determine the general colour of multiple areas of the car.

I made a simple spectrum of colour texture to place on any car like this to help find out where on the main texture these 'common' colours were placed. (useful for finding hidden things! try it.
You can see on the cinque that the main body, lights, wing etc etc all use the same shade of purple.. so it would be somewhere in the bottom corner of my spectrum texture.

all of this would be much easier to find/work out from within 3Dmax.. but that requires ripping all the models ect from the game and although it's possible/I'm able to do that, I simply dont have any time at the moment. and its more fun this way heheh

Yeah bummer @ that model texturing that way. At least the color is changeable but yeah, bummer sort of.

Well, I applied a (big) sticker on Zonda Cinque, via TexMod, but I encountered a problem. Any idea/s ?

take a look here: [Clickety Click]

probably worth you looking at the whole thread.. but you will see a post from me on that second page with a big 'do not use this template' image.. it explains why you cant really use individual colours on that main body section..

looks nice though AJ to start with

I had a similar idea heheh
