Enduracers 3DS Max Render

[Menos]

Hey everyone,

After much searching and trying I am stuck.

Using the 3DS Max files provided by Enduracers I am trying to view my skin onto the render so I can avoid loading up the game for every tiny detail I change. Yet I can't seem to figure out how to add the texture onto the car as it is just showing a black car.

I have no experience at all with 3DS Max. Can anyone help me?

- Launche rF2 in Windowed mode in a "small" resolution"
- Go to the tuning menu and choose your car and load the "alt-skin" you already have.
- Go make changes in photoshop and save the alt-skin.
- go the rf2 and click reload.

you can do this for the rims, windows, whatever the car has as paintable.

Really simple.

You don't need 3ds Max to preview any rF2 skin.

Yes I just run RF2 in a window and alt-tab between Photoshop and RF2.

I then just click reload to update the skin file each time.

I've noticed in the DX11 version you can't alt-tab anymore from a full screen copy, has to be in a window.

Since the DX11 update this is probably a slightly better option anyway. Only because with the post processing filters and so on, in 3DS it might look amazing but can end up looking poor in-game.

Anyway, have fun with your painting!
