Title: 3rd Generation Prius Texture Replacement. Help Needed.
Post by: Menaceman on 2011 August 20, 21:12:58
God I hope I'm submitting this in the right place.

I want to replace the texture of the 3rd generation Prius that EA made available as I strongly dislike the fact that it has no number plate on the rear.
I have extracted the textures from the relevant dcdb file, made my edits and then imported them into a new .package file.
The result is that the replacement only works in the catalogue preview. The little rotating image shows the changes but when the car is placed the textures are as they have always been.
Yes, I have been deleting the cache files before testing my files. Still nothing.
I've attached the file if anyone wants to take a look and see what I'm doing wrong. Or just so you can have a good giggle to yourselves.

This works as intended for me.  And also removed the number plate after removing the file and deleting my compositorCache.  Positive your deleting the right cache package?  And are you rebuying the car, or are you looking at one already purchased on a lot?

Works for me too. The sims3pac is compressed, entpacked with Delphys Multiinstaller, package in Mods Folder. Your´s replacement in Overides Folder in Mods with higher priority.

How odd. I have been checking with an already purchased car AND on a newly purchased one. The only cache I have not deleted is the SimCompositor one.

I'll give it another try in a different world.

ETA; Very odd. Purchasing the car in a different world loaded the replacement textures no problem. Oh well. Thanks.
