The Tyre.dds file that has all of the textures for the tyre is only the one file, which contains all the textures for all the tyres.

Recently I've found a problem where I like the road-super from one tyre pack, and the road-normal from another, and the hybrid from that one and knobbly from that one.

So I add one kind, hoping to keep the others, but then I find they're replaced with the standard textures.

So, I simply suggest, instead of the one .dds, it has TYRERoadS, TYRERoadN, TYREHyb, TYREKnb etc to allow mix-matching of treads without having to re-texture in Photoshop (with mixed results)

Excuse the general incoherent post, I'm too tired to care. I'm sure you understand what I mean anyway

sounds good. I use knobs for drifting and it annoys me that they are covered in mud.

Let me get this right...

You're having trouble figuring out how to correctly mod the textures in Photoshop. It wont work right so you want the dev's to rearrange how they made the game read from textures ?

You have two options :

1) Learn how to use photoshop and apply alpha channels, copy/paste etc.

2) Post the 4 textures as the original dds textures and ask someone to compile them the way you want. Offer cash.

Actually it would a lot of sense to have them seperate. Not just for modders, but to enable some kind of visual wear once that gets added.

After all, there's no point having all tyre textures loaded if nobody is using most of the models. Would make more sense to only load the ones you're using

You have two options :

1) Learn to not assume; I can skin and, as you put it, "copy/paste"
2) Hahah no.

And yes, it makes sense to have seperate files for seperate textures.

Dajmin, good point, probbably won't happen till S3 though

I would prefer to keep them in one file, makes it much simpler to find the right textures and share textures, if anything I think some files could still be merged together to make it simpler.
