Hate to disappoint you, but the pre-rebuild spec "S1" version uses a different texture mapping to the post-rebuild spec, complete with a different name.
The pre-rebuild AO map is called "9precrash BODY AO - Copy.dds" and so when renaming your post-rebuild files to the pre-rebuild name...

I know it's a pain, but you'll have to rework the mapping of the skins again for the pre-rebuild spec. The post-rebuild skins are fine so leave them up while you edit the skins again.

Issues here too. Every new skin shows up as plain grey.

The new skins show up fine on the post-rebuild spec; it's the pre-rebuild spec that's the problem. As I stated above, the pre-rebuild version has a different texture mapping and a different AO file name;

"9precrash BODY AO - Copy.dds" - Pre-Rebuild (S1) spec
"BODY_AO_201804.dds" Post-Rebuild (base) spec

Thanks for informing. I was still on v0.99. Now I found out there has been an update to v1.0 (other site) and also a rework v2.0 (here on RD).
So, the reworked skins will (now) not work on the S1 (that I suspect to be the "Pre-Rebuild", right ?

Edit: indeed, I see now.

Which XJ13 is this for? I have this one:

The name in the folder is simply "jaguar_xj13"

The skins work for this one allright

That is the post-rebuild. It might also be the older version of the model; go to assettocorsamods.net and download the car there; then download the physics update by @aphidgod before applying the skins.

I got the v2.0 change in the ui after the physics update, so my guess is that @JTRaceFan17 has the same version as mine, and the skins worked OK.

I had trouble getting any of the skins to work, FWIW. I assumed I had some mismatched 'dev copy' locally so I redownloaded Mantas' file over at assettocorsamods. No luck...

The problem is that the filenames for the AO mapping is so awkward; thankfully, clicking the body shell of the XJ13 in the Content Manager showroom will show what the skin has to be named for it to be applied; as listed in the tx_diffuse property of the element of the car in question

 

[aphidgod]

Nice. =)

I lose interest pretty quickly and go back to physics when I run into 3d hurdles.

Hahaha oh dear. This simply can't go right now can it?
I haven't looked yet myself, but does S1 use a different mapping than what I first had? And is different to what the regular body now uses? I just assumed they were the same..

I'll see what I can do short term. For now, just don't use the s1

Ironically the old versions of the post-rebuild skins actually mapped better on the pre-rebuild version. Just fill in the black spaces on the old map with the colour of the base metal using the paint bucket tool and save for the lack of any baked-in shadows on the underside of the S1's wheel arches and front bumper you're almost good to go.

 

[NightEye87]

Hmm. I'll have a look. The old files should still be in the recycle bin

 

[aphidgod]

Well, keep me updated. I can always update the files here with new stuff if you guys get it sorted out. At some point I'll have another tire update to make, we continue to learn things.

NightEye87 updated Jaguar XJ-13 historically inspired skins with a new update entry:

Pre-rebuild version skins updated

I updated the pre-rebuild version (s1) skins so they match again.
