Replacing Textures for Mod Vehicles

Summary

This guide will teach you how to replace textures on a modded vehicle.

Prerequisites

Changing the texture

1. Finding the file in the mod

Switch the Asset Browser to the Mod Browser:

Now, use the Wolvenkit Search to find the texture that you want to replace.
&#xNAN;(I'm going to replace the Livery texture on my Miura)

  • Textures have the file extension .xbm
  • You can filter the list on the left by file name, or browse the list on the left until you have found the right mod. \

2. Adding the required files

{% hint style="info" %} The files you need are different from mod to mod. However, you need at least the .xbm with the actual texture. {% endhint %}

In the example, I will also add the .mi (material instance). This file holds the texture's properties (like its path). By adding the .mi file, you can customize the decal even further.

Add the files to your mod by double-clicking them.


3. Exporting the texture

After adding the texture, you can now export it to .png.

The resulting texture will show up in your project's raw folder (use the source tab to see all project files)

4. Overwriting the texture

Click the yellow folder shape next to the .png file to open the Windows Explorer.\

Now replace the .png with the picture that you want:

{% hint style="warning" %} The file name must be the same {% endhint %}

5. Importing the texture

Now import your texture back into the .xbm.



\

{% hint style="success" %} You can see in the project explorer that your texture has been replaced {% endhint %}

6. Testing your mod

Install your mod and launch the game.

{% hint style="info" %} You can use the Install and Launch button to do both at once! {% endhint %}

If you spawn the car, you will now see that the texture has changed!

{% hint style="info" %} If you want to share your texture edit, you can do so by sharing the installed .archive. {% endhint %}
