I have at last sussed out how to import new riders and bikes into the
game ,but my problem now is simple i hope , I want to put Yanagawas
Kawasaki into the game to use myself i have the skins already to use and
i know how to edit the extra participants file except the colour part ,
where you have to type in the colour for the bike its is confusing me
because the colours are numbers something to do with RGB can someone
please help me as this is all that is holding me back.
Cheers Andy.
Andy,
My real riding-buddy's/computer-buds and I have figured out how to paint
not only our real streetbikes into the game, but out real helmets/riding
gear etc also! I can't tell you how cool it is to be "in" the game. We
modeled what we did off of the skins that other people painted as well as
the generic Adobe PhotoShop files that the game came with.
There is a ton of little things that need to be done to get every little
detail right, but if you enjoy fiddling with it, it will be very rewarding.
As far as those numbers for the bike color.....they are the RGB color codes
that represent the color you want the tank painted when you are racing from
the Rider's perspective. One you paint your bike skin you can use any paint
program (Adobe is the best) to pull the color off the gas tank that you
painted on your bike skin. If your paint program is any good it will give
you the RGB equivalent numbers that make up that color. Your best bet is to
look on the screen with the color palette or color wheel to find them. Once
you know what numbers represent the color you want the tank to be, just edit
the Extra-participants file to match and away you go!
Hope that answers your question,
Chris
i think i'm right in saying the colour part only refers to the colour of the
tank shown in the on bike view......
to get the correct colours check the colours on the bike in something like
paint shop pro to get the details.....
kawasaki green should be R: 31 G: 209 B: 31.....
hope this helps.......

Hi Andy,
Check out this site for Hex colour codes:-

Also this site http://www.lne.com/rgb.html converts the RGB value to it's
equivalent Hex value. Found them both quite useful for sorting out the
colours.
