This step-by-step guide on how to make a skin in BeamNG is a masterpiece! All worked,earlier I tried older tutorials, but none of them were working. Thank you for helping me out with making a car skin in BeamNG. It still does works in 2024
glad someone finally shows step by step how to get the skins open! i use photoshop to edit iRacing skins, and it's almost the exact same process once you get the UV image imported. im really excited to make some fancy liveries
Is there a chance that somethings changed with the .30 update? I followed the instructions and it shows the skin name in the parts area, but nothing loads in. just stays blank. Thanks in advance for the tutorial, but I might have missed something. Just checking if this still works on the latest BeamNG build...
i did everything in the tutorial, even triple checked everything. but when i select it ingame it just shows me a yellow "No Texture" Livery im going insane idk what im doing wrong
I had the same problem but after using a png image instead of a dds image and checking the skinmaterialsjson multiple times and editing the parameters for name, mapTo and baseColorMap in it I got it to work Hopefully this Info helps a bit
Hello BNGFPlus, Hope you're doing good! I saw all your videos including this one on this channel and they were really helpful. Can you make a tutorial video on how to convert non-PBR terrain textures to PBR ones required for map-making. I have seen many videos on UA-cam but they were confusing or too complicated to walkthrough. Please consider making a video on this request 🙏🏼
once you create the second layer, you can both put images and font as well as just filling in the whole layer with color. or you can add another layer between the pictures layer and the UV layer with the lines on it.
this video's almost a year old. But I have an issue I can't seem to fix. I got everything down, and its in the parts selector. But when I select it, it immediately goes back to the "empty" choice. Any way I can fix that?
I'm trying to do this with the Bolide, but the only PNGs the Bolide has is one for color grade and the Volitalia rally skin. Do all vehicles have skin UVs?
Why after update is Display Path not working in the Script AI manager window??? I even deleted the game and reinstalled it to fix the problem, but the trajectory of the movement of transports after recording is not visible even with or without a check mark on the Display Path.
really thank you i finally made my own skin i never could before. If you do exactly as in the video everything will work, you have to be careful with the names. I misnamed one folder and it didn't work but I fixed it. It would be nice to see how to make skins with the ability to change the color in the game or multicolored. I am interested in one thing, I made a skin but it is very metallic, how to make it look more matte?
the skin doesnt transfer into the the game. i did this 2 times to make sure i did it right but when i got to select my paint scheme, it says "YOUR SKIN NAME" and i changed this to "Todd Gilliland Grillos Pickles" in the files. im using the dryvan for this btw. the scheme isnt correct either, its just the UV
I NEED help. I understand this video came out a year ago. But every time I load the skin into beamng its black, I cannot change the color, The text is red like it should be but the rest of the vehicle is black. I've done everything I can possibly think of. Honestly I think I'll just give up, if I can't get a response. I've spent countless hours over the last 2 days. This tutorial has been very helpful I'm just struggling and don't know what to do :(
Im not sure if something is outdated, but when i tried making a skin for the etk800 sedan, only the rear of the car had the skin, the rest had the normal car color
I tried to make a skin I put it into DDS I made in the background solid. I put some little squiggles on it just as a test and it doesn’t seem to be working. I’m running the current version of BeamNG Drive. Could that be the problem?
I tried to add a skin to a T-Series cargo box box and it didn't work. The slot under livery is there, but the skin didn't show up. Is there anything I have to do differently from the tutorial?
I'm trying to change the Gavril H45 Ambulance from fire services to just ambulance. The cab and box are separate skins in different folders. Is there a way to identify all the files that need editing for this one vehicle? Currently I can't figure out where the .DDS file is for the box. And... excellent videos.
if i were to make a skin for the cargo box version of the d-series, where would i find the uv for it? all it shows is the uv for the regular pickup version
How can I make one part of the skin with variable colors ingame. I want to make a racing skin and want to keep the colors of the numbers and advertising but want to make one part of the car color variable so I can tune better ingame the main color I want
hey man its been a long time and im trying to make a skin for the UTV and im really struggling so some help would be sick. i think my problems are with the saving process
i've been trying to make a custom skin for the SP Dunekicker for a while now, but no matter how closely i follow this tutorial i can never manage to get the custom skin to display anything. i tried doing it with the d-series and it worked, but the dunekicker is always a no-go is there something different about the dunekicker that causes it to not work with this formula?
would love some help on this cuz i cant find anything about it on forums anywhere, matter of fact it seems nobody has really made any dunekicker skins for some reason
How do you make a police skin non-paintable ingame? Checked the .PC files and am lost. Tired of AI traffic repainting the vehicle so, why not just make the skin an entire image. EDIT: figured it out. open materials cs and find "instanceDiffuse" change the value to "false;" Now, modded police skins are unpaintable and most importantly: AI traffic emergency vehicles cannot alternate in color each spawn. Just make sure the livery skin colors are set to your liking and bam. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this anywhere for Beamng.. was infuriating. EDIT2: Discovered this trick only worked on a single vehicle. Other vehicles still change colors.. God damnit.
Hey, beamng fun, i have a problem whit testing the skin in game, it dont apears on the paint desing list, and i have done all the steps, can you please help me? and its a police vehicle
@@09RadBoy O that's sad I wanted to recreate the car/caravan from a Dutch show called "Bassie en Adriaan" and I already have made the car skin so that's pretty unfortunate
hey does anybody know how to make/ where to find a good rust mod i noticed the "old skin" isnt that good because im trying to make a pickup truck that looks similiar to the pickup truck in Jurassic Park: Trespasser which is completely rusted because of a hurricane so i just want to make a good rust skin on my truck
Sadly I cannot help you with that, but I am surprised that someone else here is making a Jurassic Park skin! I am currently making my JP 22 Honda Accord since I am trying to remake my real life car in game!

Bro please make more tutorial like this. useful video beamng-fun
Amazing tutorial, very helpful!!
Thanks mate ! I finally succeed ! Thanks ! I wish you a good year !
Hello. How do you make the skin colorable?
once you create the second layer, you can both put images and font as well as just filling in the whole layer with color. or you can add another layer between the pictures layer and the UV layer with the lines on it.
please make a tutorial on how you do camera cuts in your main channel videos!!!
didnt work, i put the files correctly, but when i go into vehicle config to select the livery its not there. please help!
Amazing! Thank you
this video's almost a year old. But I have an issue I can't seem to fix.

How do you use the gas station or get it could you make a video on that it would be very helpful

I think the 200bx is out of date with the skin helper mod sense it recently got revamped.
Can you please do a video were you explain how you can do realistic traffic? :)
By just using the AI traffic using the radial menu
Or for more complicated scenes the Script AI manager probably
