Skins SKIN PACK Addon for GT3 Pack 2.54 Part-1

Paco572 · Jan 15, 2018

I was proud that I was able to contribute to the pack. I wanted to also thank you for trying to help get the ICON thing sorted out. I used the methods you described but even though I followed the directions, it did make the files for me but the icons wouldn't show up. Ya I'm pulling out my hair. what's left of it anyways. Thanks for your hard work.

Ace King updated SKIN PACK Addon for GT3 Pack with a new update entry:

SKIN PACK Addon for GT3 Pack 1.998

Update v1.998 was necessary because of the recent S397 Radical update which disabled using any Radical third-party skins. Also, includes 18 additional new skins bringing the total to 69.

All new icons/thumbnails for the dx11 "Exhibition Hangar" showroom!

Hi I just checked out the skin mod and it's great with one exception, my Merc is the wrong color, complied before they fixed the problem. I have the 2 .DDS files to correct this. The cars should be green, one with a carbon hood and the other without. How would you like to handle this to get my cars looking the way they should be?

Hi Paco, i was hoping that after you saw your car skins so incorrectly displayed that you would be contacting me with your corrected DDS files.

Either do a corrected skin update in this skin section and i'll download them from there or upload the files to MediaFire or wherever you prefer then add the download link here so i can include them in my next update coming at the end of this month, thanks!

Paco572 · Feb 17, 2018

Hi and thanks for taking the time to respond to me Ace. I'll have a link to the 2 files in the coming days and will post them here.

Paco.....i come to believe that Race Dept rules don't allow a 3rd party download link so just include the files in an email attachment or the download link to: acesbrew@hotmail.com

Thank you very much! Now the GT3 Pack experience is so much better because ATM I drive offline most of the time.

Your very welcome, enjoy!

Thanks for everybodys hard work. But how do I race with just community skins and not the default ones in the mix?

Ace King · Feb 25, 2018

I create a V-Mod which allows you to choose Car makes and Car numbers plus Tracks you want in your Race Event Series.

In the rFactor launcher click on the "MAS Utility" which is the second Icon from the bottom. In the Mas Utility which pops up choose "Create the Package file" then select "Create New Mod Package". Type in the Mod name then click Next and add the Tracks you want. Click Next to now add the Vehicles and be sure to select "Only" the Vehicles using the 3rd party Skin Pack version "1.998" or latest version. (The game won't allow you to use both the default skins and 3rd party skins together when creating your V-Mod).

NOTE: To add multiple Tracks and Cars press your "Ctrl" key while making your selections! Now click Next to "Add Other Components" which you can usually ignore, then choose "Done"

This next step is necessary if you only want certain Car numbers from each Car manufacturer to race in your Event: Highlight a Car manufacturer and uncheck any Car numbers that you don't want in your Race Event. Now click "Package", then click "Install", now click "Done".

Now startup a Single Player game and after game loads up choose "Series" - (All Cars & Tracks)
Un-tick "All Tracks & Cars" (GREY) then select your Race Event, now click "ACCEPT". Now only your Tracks and Cars that you selected when making your V-Mod package will be shown and available for your Race Event.

This appears to be alot of info but it's really quite easy after you do it a few times! Good Luck!!!

I wanted to add this skin pack but when i unzip the files they are empty. I have downloaded it 3 times and i get nothing. Any ideas?

Ace King · Jun 15, 2018

It might be your unzip program can't unzip a 7-Zip file so download and install either the 7-Zip 32 bit or 64 bit EXE installer depending on your system specs (top of page). I believe this is your problem so hope this helps! Here is their website > https://www.7-zip.org/download.html

NOTE: The 7-Zip file contains 5 RFCMP files after you unzip it. Now place those files into your rFactor 2/Packages directory, then proceed to install them from your rFactor launcher.
