Did you try the solution I gave you in the other thread? If so and it isn't working, I'll look more into this tonight when I get home and my kid's in bed (as I'm at work now and can't access TM2...)

What program are you using to edit your cars?

[Sinister]

3 cars were uploaded from carpark 3d and 2d, no further editing was done on those 2 cars. 3rd one which is my vett i d/l from carpark then was painted and added stickers, stickers were from website, then used paint.net to reduce size.. painting was done from within the tmu game... but nothing works

That's the problem, then...if you're using old models from carpark, there's a whole other host of hoops you have to jump through to get them to work with TM2, and unfortunately, I can't help you withat, sorry...

I had a similar problem.

I put my tmnf stadium car in CarCommon folder and did the pack thing.
Alls that happend was it used the colors of the skin and put them on a canyon car which looked pure crap.

And it charged me for the privilege.
So im a bit gutted to loose, 200 coppers or what ever they are now.

I also followed the guide in another post and it failed miserably.

Try putting the skin in the Canyon car folder, not CarCommon.

Then pack it. And don't put a price, I think.
