People Cant See My Custom Cars On Live/systemlink
« on: November 01, 2005, 04:24:00 PM »

dont know what im doing wrong here but....

copied the save file for the car i have covered with decals across via ftp from my modded box.
ran texturetool1.1 to unpack it.
edited the dds files using photoshop and the nvidia dds plugin saving using the dxt5 and no mipmap options.
used texture tool to repack it then ftp'd the new files back to my xbox overwriting the old one

it shows up fine in the garage except the icon at the bottom shows the car with the plain decals on it, if i buy it from another profile on my box then the icon will show fine in that profile.

i can see it fine ingame both damaged and undamaged.

but when i take it online people cant even see the plain decals streched across it letalone the custom paintjob i did.

i know im probably missing something simple but i dont know what.

its a pal copy of the game btw if that makes a difference btw

people have to download ur paintjob before they can see it.  when ur in the lobby, look at ur car class.  when people join it will fill up black and will slowely dissapear.  when its all gone, the others in the room have downloaded ur paint job.  u can then start the race.
