Plonk me down please Stu, link to my skin http://forum.racedepartment.com/downloads/rfactor-skins/8/marmite-caterham-skin-2037/

Stuart Thomson · Dec 14, 2009

If you have already downloaded the skins, you can just copy them across from the "classic\skins" directory to the "academy\skins" directory.

Also, the GPL style Cat skins are now available: link

They fit all the Caterham models, you just need to drop them in the correct "skins" folder.

Sam J Simpson · Dec 14, 2009

Great track and car Stuart!

Is it normal, if I have no chance to use the 5th gear? And do I have to install your custom skins?

Stuart Thomson · Dec 18, 2009

Yep - needs to go in the folder Peter mentions. My fault there - I've always used it from my GP79 install, and it puts them there by default. Apologies, Lenno.

Peter - these Cats have fixed gearboxes, and I haven't really been able to use 5th either, so yes, it's normal.

The way the skins work in rF is less strict than GTL.

You don't have to if you don't want to, but if you do they go in the "skins" subfolder of the class (in this case "Academy") and you select them from the skins tab on the vehicle screen.
