[2013-05-22] Default skins are not stickied

Post by eyebo »

I'm comparing it to a forum topic that gets stickied on the forums. It's always there at the top. In my opinion, the default Nadeo/Ubisoft cars should always be the first ones in the selection.

In the past, the default skins were always on the first page when selecting a car skin. Now they are usually on the last page or sometimes somewhere in the middle.

This applies to MediaTracker, as well as the Models selection menu in your Profile.

Please find a way to sticky the default Nadeo/Ubisoft cars again. Thanks.

By the way,

I use Skins\Models\CanyonCar\
for skins of the Canyon car.

I use Skins\Models\CarCommon\
for skins of other 3D models by the community

I use Skins\Models\StadiumCar\
for skins of the Stadium car

And I have subfolders inside each of those to further organize the cars. For instance:
Skins\Models\CarCommon\RallyCars\

This works well for organizing my car skins, and it groups the skins together when browsing them in-game.
I don't know if it's important for testing purposes, but I wanted to tell how I organize those folders.

I'm not using the "Skins\Vehicles\" folder anymore at all.
And it seems to be deleted anyway, or maybe not created when I did a clean install recently.

I noticed that as well after a recent clean install. The map vehicles is not created anymore in a fresh install, but still probably used by many who didnt do a fresh re-install. That also means both maps (vehicles and models) still can be used ?

+2 :thumbsup:
I removed the vehicles folder myself and I use the same subfolder structure you do.

@Haagse: I guess vehicles can still be used but the default cars arn't stored there anyways.

Yeah, you can use both at the same time. I did before my fresh install of MP.

But yeah, this issue probably isn't related to that at all anyway, since the default cars are stored in the PacksCache, I think.

Good idea!
It'd also be cool to stick the signs in the Editor back again as well :)
