There's a single image i've been wanting to put on the Intamin Rocket Coaster trains for a while now, for the TMI contest. Unfortunately, I can't find a tutorial on how i'm supposed to custom cartexture. So, if anyone wants to enlighten me on how to Custom Cartexture and package a cartexture into an NL2 file I would be really happy!
Mind Bender at SFOG is pretty great Check out my WIP thread Currently working on Thunderbolt, a second generation Schwarzkoph.
1) If you have a design or texture ready to go then make a copy as a JPG file . I use a 512X512 Dimension which worked for me
2) go to your Documents folder and open up your No limits coaster / NoLimits2.com folder and find the folder of the design you are working on.
3) When you find your designs folder, paste the copy of the texture or design you have made in that folder. Then close everything up.
4) Go and open up your Nolimits2 program and open your coasters design.
5) When your design opens, go to the coaster tab and click on coaster properties. When it opens, click on the trains tab.
6) When the train tab opens, You will see two color setup tabs. Choose the one below train 1. There you will see car texture 1 or 2.
7) click on the far right buttons with the (.....) on them and you will be able to go to the Documents folder you made your texture copy at and select it.
8) when you select your folder, click ok and freeze your coaster. And there you have it.
*** if it dont look right or not aligned the way you wish, then just use Photoshop, or maybe Paint to make your alterations and then repeat the process I listed above.
