You need to follow a naming convention to get everything to show up ingame even though you put it into the .mas file. The name of the .mas must reflect the names of the skins.

My .mas file for this car is called 52alt.mas, so my texture files must be named 52alt[TYPE].dds, or else rf2 will not see them

So my body is 52alt.dds, my spoiler is 52altEXTRA5.dds, wheels 52altEXTRA8.dds, and windows 52altWINDOW.dds

So as long as XXaltTYPE is followed and in the same order as your .mas filename, you can get it in the game

To get the skin on a server, you simply go on the serve and wait in the pitbox for your skin to upload, then everyone else can get it from the server. Your skin needs to be a .mas and seperate from the other skins (you need to click in the TUNING screen on ...NEW CAR/DRIVER FROM CURRENT and input your info), if it's just an alternative for an existing car, it doesnt work every time

In the NEW CAR/DRIVER box, you input as follows (example from RBDKs Stock Car) Driver name: RBDK Team name: Ford Racing Team MAERSK Car description: #52 MAERSK RBDK Car number: 52

NAMING URD EGT SKIN FILES

For URD skins the structure is a little different. It is important that you name your skins exactly as follows (example with #52 Corvette C7R)

Body file: 52_ALT.dds, Rear Window: 52_ALTrwin.dds, Wing: 52_ALTwing.dds, Banner: 52_ALTban.dds

Saved into a .mas file name 52_ALT

For a Porsche 911 it would be

Body: 52_ALT.dds, Banner: 52_ALTbaner.dds (YES ONLY ONE 'N', VERY IMPORTANT!!!!), Wing: 52_ALTrwing.dds, Windows: 52_ALTwindows.dds

FAQ

How do I make my own mods /host my own server?

Here's a handy document that should hopefully help you understand the process of creating mods from existing content and setting up a server.

How do I change my in-game name?

Go to %appdata%, open the .rFactor folder and open the file 'rFactor.name' with a text editor. The first line is what your first name is in-game, the second line is what your last name is in-game, and the third line is your nickname in-game. These can be changed to anything you want.

If you downloaded the cracked version, you may not have a .rFactor folder. If so, create it and the rFactor.name file inside it, then fill in your details yourself.

If this still doesn't work, try changing "Player Nick":"your nickname" in your player.json in Userdata\player. Also try changing the name in Bin64\steam_emu.ini and Launcher\steam_emu.ini files.

My computer runs rFactor 1 fine, why does this run so poorly?

rFactor 2 is a big step up from rFactor 1, both graphically and technically, rFactor 2 features an advance tyre model, weather effects, improved lighting, and much, much more! Thus that GeForce 7900 you bought 10 years ago doesn't cut it anymore. Stop being poor and upgrade your computer.

I downloaded the cracked version 1111, where do I install .rfcmp's(mods)?

Create a folder named 'Packages' inside the rFactor 2 folder, and when you are in the launcher make sure it is looking in that folder for the .rfcmp files.

I downloaded and installed the cars/tracks, but I still can't join the server.

Though the game should do this automatically, try downloading the .rfmod (of the current round) located in the mega link on the Google doc, placing it in the 'Packages' folder, and installing it. If it isn't on the Google doc try complaining in the thread/Mumble/Discord and it'll probably be uploaded for you.
