Great video Dan! I managed to get my K100 sorted out a couple of weeks ago with colour changing skin, thanks to you, Mark B and the MS2 Discord community. The next thing on my list of things to work out is masking over competing colours, such as truck stickers (IFTA stickers etc) and text (USDOT, company names etc). Would be excellent to see a final video in the series that touches on this.....hint hint lol.
Speaking of multicolor painting...how would I paint some parts (fenders), (roof) a different color than the base color?? Want a base color of YELLOW, and the fenders and roof BLACK. Once I learn how to do that, I can then add my graphics\text. And thanks for all the work you do. Its much appreciated.
How's it going mountain man , hey I got rhe mods in order thanks once again. And what I meant by you helping me out thru steam I meant as in I would've sent you pictures of my set up but it's ok I understand I got it tho. Now the thing that really confuses me is when there's mods that have other, models, prefabs, things like that I don't know where to place them at. Example I have this mod ATS New Road Texture and its under other where should I place that at? And the other one a skin for my garage it's under other where should I place that one at. Never knew that these mods had to be placed in a curtain way😂😂.
Glad you got it working! The textures can be placed below the sounds and above any physics mods. I know people really harp about the specifics of the mod order, but adding the chrome SCS Box Trailer Frame from Steam, I consider a physical change just like the road texture is a physical thing. even though it's called graphics. To me they go together. When I place those items in my mod folder I put one sub group, say, mod steering wheels and trailer frames below the visual graphics things. These are all under sounds. Chase cameras and pivot cam work fine anywhere in between these items but if I'm using them, they would pop in under sounds. As for skins, I put them under the Map Overlay if I'm using one. The Map Overlay goes right at the top unless you are using JBX which would be at the top. Because I do a lot of skins, having them at the top of an 80 mod load order save me a lot of time and poses no problem for the game. Hope I didn't just muddy the water a lot more!
@@danmcnarryI don't use jbx, to be honest I haven't paid for a single mod to this game I use the ones from steam and no sir no mud on my boots there're dry 🤣 thank you once again sir you are a gem. I truly appreciate your help
I followed this tutorial to the last minute detail. Instead of having 3 color masks, I only have one. Just a simple Hood Color Change. Whenever I load into game, the base color always comes out Matte, instead of how they normally are. I want the base color to be changeable, along with the hood. Any way on how to fix the base color being Matte?

Great video Dan, thats gonna help a lot of people, and I really appreciated the extra step you went through, I always wondered about that. 👍👍👍
Thanks Dan. It's so simple yet something that is pretty hard to find information on. It's like a trick that folks don't want to share.

I would really love to figure that out. It would be so cool. A whole new level of cool in fact.

He's actually done a video about mod order.
@@Weltschmerz1523 I know I seen it, I'm just confused on some mods that have others and models etc. Do you know where they go?

It sounds like you are missing the black layer under the red, green and blue. Make sure base colour is not l8cked in the Basic tab.
Hi guys, how to make a matte skin?
You could try putting a layer of black over the skin with reduced opacity.
