DonatDrifter submitted a new resource:

Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Gulf 12h pack (Oman Racing with TF Sport + Beechdean AMR) - Gulf 12h Aston Martin Vantage GT3 livery pack.

Liveries/skins are replicas of real life liveries entered to Gulf 12 hours 2018.

The liveries are made in a new way provided by Studio397, taking advantage of the new material system to add different reflections to different parts of the livery.

By Donat Prodan (me). Feel free to use them and take screenshots of them.

Just a heads up - Oman Racing; Jonny Adam #97 works. The other, Beechdean: Andrew Howard #98 does NOT.

Very nice skins btw.

Are you sure you installed everything correctly? I honestly don't know what could be the reason for that. The only thing I can say is: try reinstalling them. Sorry for that.

Could likely be a duplicated driver name. Just replace the driver name and it should be loaded

Does it work for you?

Sven Hielscher · Feb 13, 2019

Had to rename the driver to get it working, yes.
I tried "AMV98" as a dummy name first, then "Howard Andrew", then "Andre Howard", and all three worked for me. I also renamed him back again to "Andrew Howard" and lost that poor guy again

But don't ask me why it is what it is! Didn't found anything in the trace or any obvious error. Must be that the name is in use already (in whatever mod) because this seems to be the main reason why this happens. Anyhow, renaming the driver seems to solve the issue

I can´t chosse the 98. It doesent show´s ingame ;( The 97 works perfect.

DonatDrifter · Feb 13, 2019

Thing with Howard is that he is a British GT regular (and it's his own team), so he is likely to appear in other skins

An alternative to this would be renaming it to Howard's co-drivers in the race (source) - you could choose Humaid al Masaood (likely to be less frequent), Chris Dyson or Ross Gunn (a WEC works driver)

I had the same problem with the Walkenhorst Playstation BMW M6 GT3 skin, because he only drove for N24 and not VLN according to web research, I changed "M Sandritter" to "Jonathan Hirschi" and still won't show up

---
It will show up on the UI but both reverts to it's default skin in the showroom

People who have problems probably have Enduracers mod installed too. I'm pretty sure there is a Beechdean Vantage GTE. I don't have Enduracers mod, because I don't like vehicle mods (mostly because physics aren't accurate) and everything works perfect for me.

DonatDrifter updated Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Gulf 12h pack (Oman Racing with TF Sport + Beechdean AMR) with a new update entry:

Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Gulf 12h pack (Oman Racing with TF Sport + Beechdean AMR) 1.1 (#98)

Update 1.1: #98 driver name changed, now it shouldn't conflict with other skins.

rfactor2/UserData/player/Settings

- then within respective vehicle folder.

Hope that helps.

I only have track folders there. So do i have to find somewhere what the vehicle folders have to be named or can i name the folders anything and just drop these files in?

Yes, just create/name the vehicle folder, for example ; AstonMartin_Vantage_GT3_2019 (which this particular skin is).
