Now, in order for your car know how to show your custom liveries, you normally need to create two. Make sure the name of the folder is exactly the same as the name you put in the text file before, otherwise the car can’t find its livery location.

1-210224-144406 doesn’t really stick out, so I renamed it ‘Skin Tutorial’.

For structuring purposes, rename it to something that sticks out more than the generated numbers it currently has. There, you’ll find the car you just saved. Make sure you sort by ‘date modified’, so the most recent file sits on top. C:\Users\\Documents\Assetto Corsa Competizione\Customs\Cars.Now go to your documents folder and follow the path below: Give the car a name and a number and hit ‘SAVE’ (bottom left). You just have to put in some work to get it to look right. The Lamborghini Huracan ST is a beautiful beast. For the purpose of this tutorial, I chose the Lamborghini Huracan ST. Click on ‘ADD’ (bottom left) and select the car you want to customize. Your first step is to boot up the game and to go to the car selection menu. In order to create a custom design, first you need to create the in-game entity which you’ll later be able to customize. Now all you need to get started is a good idea of what you want your livery to look like! You will need to change the “texDDS” from 1 to 0 like I did in the image below Scroll down all the way to the bottom, and then up a bit. Go to the Config folder and open menuSettings.json with wordpad. You need to go into your ACC folder in your Documents directory. One more thing you need to do before you start. If you’ve got the software installed, you need the templates to start your design process. In Illustrator you draw shapes that can easily be changed in shape or color, making it not only easier to change your design but also to index your work. Personally, I prefer using Illustrator over Photoshop. However, since these are quite heavily priced, there are some decent free alternatives, like Inkscape and Gimp but I can’t attest to their usefulness since I don’t use these programs myself. What do you need to make custom liveries? Well, you need image manipulation or drawing software like Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop.
