Ambulance/Firetruck Skin

[Noble]

EDIT:

Ambulance and Firetruck isn't skinable, it is not UV mapped, so you'd have to recompile the model and more. Worthless really.

Myfloodify unintentionally answered this question on a different thread, nevermind.

Spoiler :

I hope this is in the right section, I apologize if it is not. Recently I've begun making custom textures for vehicles (mainly police cars at this point) because editing the current skins is fairly straight forward to do.

However, when I took a look at the ambulance, firetruck, and taxi I can't seem to find specific decals (such as the sides of the ambulance saying 'San Andreas' or 'Emergency Unit'). This is the folder I've been looking through trying to find it: http://puu.sh/5KvXo.png and as far as I can see it is not contained within any of them unless I missed something.

If anyone knows what file contains the skin for one of these vehicles I'd appreciate it, I feel that a new skin on these vehicles could do wonders.

Thanks in advance!

We have for long tried to create new skins for the firetrucks and the ambulance, even I tried to do it. I even contacted the creator of the vehicle, Sgt.Sickness, and he said that you'd need to recompile the model. To my understanding it's like remodel it, not too sure, but it's not easy. It isn't UV mapped as the other skins, it uses a single color and the logo and such is imported (I think) for GTA SA directly.

Try to google some, I don't think there is someone really capable of doing it here (yet), I mean, if there were then we would have a new skin already...

P.S. Killjoy (or someone else..) announced some time ago that Termin is working on a new Taxi!

The 2 vehiclegrunge texture files seem to have the colors used on the vehicle as the ambulance/firetruck's are white and red and the taxi's is yellow. The UV mapping wouldn't be too hard to do but I wouldn't be able to start with what is currently there.

I did find this however on the Steam Workshop:

It's the exact same model and texture, only difference is that Evocity has been placed at the top instead of San Andreas. I tried downloading the dupe to get a better look at the files but for whatever reason Garry's Mod seems to skip downloading it at start up. This could be a start though.

Tried to install that too, no luck

I talked to the guy who had posted it, apparently it was part of the old Sickness SVN pack which now has been replaced with GTA 4 models so I'd have to contact the guy who made it and hope he still had the old files and remembered how he made it.

I also found this: http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/594699...8179F114E/

Seems like someone else had a custom texture for it as well? The side back and door have different words/symbols.

[Floodify]

Yeah, I talked with Sgt.Sickness about the old and the new one. I tried to contact him regarding the so called badges that were in the file, no answer though.

I wonder how they made that texture..

Great news! GRiiM actually found the file it's located in, turns out if you enable the mask layer the decals appear. So I won't be able to reskin the entire model, but I can do a few edits. Also the quality is really low, I'm looking into finding a way to work around it.

[Noble]

Getting somewhere now!

Got it working! http://www.fearlessrp.net/showthread.php?tid=39902

And the UV mapping doesn't really matter as a lot of the vehicles are not fully UV mapped.

Well done, may I ask how you found the appropriate files etc?

GRiiM was looking at the decal files and selected View>Mask
