Looking for guide on how to change/add paintjobs (textures)

Hi,

does anyone know how this works? I found that the textures are in assets\textures\patterns\ as .gz files. Upon extracting them i found they are files without a file extension, but IrfanView thinks they are .dds files. I was then able to download the NVIDIA Texture Tools for Adobe Photoshop and import them into photoshop, but I can't make sense of them. They appear as black/white images like this:



Thanks for your feedback.

The game is able to read other file formats such as .tga or .png (like for the player logos).
Try these before you dive into the .dds creation, maybe they are working in these formats already.

Thanks for the tip. I will try and experiment some.
