Hey friends !

I'm about to release a new car but the carimage does not work.
The car is named : Autobahn_polizei.
I don't undestand : the name is OK, my folders are ok
Data->INTRFACE->Carimage->Autobahn_polizeiCI->PIX16 : which contains
autobahn_polizeia.pix
~b.PIX
~c.PIX
~d.PIX
~e.PIX
~f.PIX
daz64.pix (name of the driver, the image works)

Some cars have a bigger name, so it should not be a problem.
Did I choose a reserved name or something like that ?

thanks by advance !
:grin:

Is your car's .txt file named Autobahn_polizei.TXT and defined in your OPPONENTS.TXT as follows:
AUTOBAHN POLIZEI
DAZ
AUTOBAHN POLIZEI
1 // Strength rating (1-5)
72000 // Cost to buy it
all // Network availability ('eagle', or 'all')

Autobahn_polizei.TXT // vehicle filename
//vehicle description
TOP SPEED: 140MPH
KERB WEIGHT: 1.15 TONS
0-60MPH: 5.4 SECONDS
THIS NIPPY LITTLE ALL-TERRAIN BUGGY SUITS THE OFF-ROAD RACES, BUT AVOID TAKING ON THOSE TRUCKS...


Make sure your tiffs for your CarImage have a solid white alpha channel (easy to do if you're using photoshop,) sometimes C2 will fuck up when generating the pix, adding the alpha channel usually fixes this.

Maybe I'm missing the point and the issue is indeed the length of the name? I can't clarify that, however.

Yes, that's the problem.
