to install a 3do file into the track
Post subject: How
Hi people, I'm new to this board. I have a question for whoever would be willing to
help. I'm trying to do some track updating but have hit these two major walls:
1. The sunoco sign- how do I install it? I have never touched the 3d stuff before. Also
I have permission from Kevin at PWF to use the sign model, but will need to make
the actual sign itself, which I will do later. But for now I was just using TRG's to see
how to do it before I bother making my own.
2. Pink. I will go to open a mip file with WinMip, such as the billboards or Victory
lane, and the areas that are supposed to be invisible are pink. So now I have a Texas
which has a pink wall between the trees that go around the victory lane, and
billboards which have a pink outline. Anyone know how to fix this? I'm fairly new to
mip's to.
Thank you much in advance for any help

.mip file, do the following. Open the image you want to work with. Change the "File"
option to mip. Hold down the "Shift" key and click on the pink color (this will flag it as
transparent). Then save the mip file.

Place the new object in either the track folder or shared folder, and the appropriate
mip files.
