ICR2 - Invalid car set

2 posts by 2 people · 17 Mar 1997 - 17 Mar 1997

Howdy, I wanted to create a car set so I ran "paintkit joe", I then got an error something like "Can not copy a file". So I copied cars/car95.dat to joe/joe.dat, then brought it in to paintlit, painted my car, saved it. When I try to read it in to ICR2 I get an error "Invalid car set". Does anyone have any suggestions or has anyone ran into this before? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Please send me email directly, I don't frequent this group too often. Joe Ledva

When you run paintkit the command line needs to include the "directory" name of a valid *.dat file. The *.dat file in the directory must have the same name as the directory and must reside under the cars directory. However, this directory must also contain a valid drivers2.txt file. For added measure also copy the drivers.txt file to this directory. Adding these 2 files should solve the "invalid car set" error. For more information on using paintkit see the help file at http://www.teleport.com/~mcarver/autosim.htm, the direct URL for this file is http://www.teleport.com/~mcarver/icrptkit.htm -- **************************** Michael E.
