G'day André! This could be due to your CSP version. I recommend running any of my skins on the latest CSP release (Either public or preview). This could solve the issue. If that doesn't fix the issue, could you elaborate on the details more? Such as, do the skins show up in CM as usable, can you open them in the showrooms, etc?

Everytime I install I get no skins showing up the car is all white any idea why?

Hi, thank you for your prompt response and clear explanation. It must be a nightmare trying to please everybody and accomodate all the different ways people work/play. For me, the showroom is a big deal but I've now learnt how to make that work for me so I'm very happy! Again, thank you for this set of skins and for the obvious effort you've put in: they are truly fantastic.

Thank you! Yeah, as I said in the post, some use BC7 because I found they render black the best, for both file size and quality. I used BC3 for the majority of skins because the quality drop wasn't massive, but for the Merc and Mclaren, I found the darker spots turned purple and green with banding issues. If I had used DXT5 or a higher quality equivalent, the total file size for the whole grid wouldn't be quite friendly for lower end PC's or leagues Though I also didn't really think people would want to look at them in the showroom, guess I was wrong 😅

This is fantastic work, thank you. One thing I have noticed is that a number of .dds files, particularly for the McLaren and Mercedes skins are saved with BC7 compression. Personally, I found that this prevented me from rendering preview images in Content Manager, for example, until I re-saved those files using DXT5 compression.
