Trying to edit Swamp Rat

Post by WadeSullivan »

Hey there

My problem is, o downloaded the Swamp Rat from DeepBlue, and i was trying to make a new mug (face) and a mug2 (face and the car in the garage) but the Swamp only have 1 FLI file witch is the mug2 photo.

How do i make a mugshot (face) and a mug2 (car and driver)?

Just copy car and mug FLI files from another addon car (most of mine are a single frame, easy to edit), rename the copies then fill in their filenames in OPPONENT.TXT in the Swamp Rat entry. And ofcourse use CarmagEdit to edit them (Aseprite should work too).

I'm not sure I understand. Basically the game doesn't save?
If you're using the Steam release, have you tried running it from another Steam folder? (located on another drive, or at least out of the Program Files folder)

Else, what version of C1 are you running?

Does this happen with the Meldpack? Can you doublecheck that the savefiles aren't set as read-only (right-clic > properties) or that you installed the whole pack in a folder where there's no permission issue (as implied, program files is often problematic).
Besides that, nothing comes to mind as a possible source of that problem :sdead:
