I know how to download vinyls (with a mouse) I Know how to open bin-tex and work the program yet again with the mouse and not much of my brain. But none of my brain works when it comes to selecting those vinyls with my gamepad and seeing them on the car. Can somebody please help me on this...whether it be the naming part of the file im replacing, which one that anybody knows that knows the bin-tex name and what vinyl it is on the game( just a couple)...if certain vinyls HAVE to be replaced with certain ones in bin-tex....i have beaten the game and some other challenges so should have everything unlocked...please can somebody breifly explain...ive checked topics and cant find anything to help me other than how to import them and not how to find them in the game to actually see them

it should work fine? what file are you replacing? just make a note of what file u are replacing and make sure you replace both normal and mask files.

do u use anything as a sort of guide to no where everything goes? or do u jsut gestimate??

i no i cant see what its gonna look like until you have put it in the game, do u no of an easier way of finding out where things will show up on the car?

maybe i should get more involved with vynle making and i would ask such stupid questions???

I dont download vinyls. Some of them are wonderful (I love a special lightning white backlights for 350z) but when I install them, the game usually crash so I had to reinstall.

I have learnt the lesson: not to install "strange" things over my ORIGINAL and clean game.

Not a stupid question , I use body vinyl # 3 as my guide , I put it on my
workspace to help me line things up like this .

Your welcome , hot sauce . I haven't been doing this for that long
so I don't know what layers are , I guess I'm going to have to read
the manual that came with my Paint Shop Pro software . All I know
about layers is that when I put a new graphic on my vinyl I am
working on I usually pick : Paste As New Selection . I am noticing
also that some cars are easier to work with than others .
