This is my first ever edited file, so it might seem Okish to you, But I LOVE IT I got tired of the old plastic grille so I upgraded to some shiny aluminum looking stuff. Please leave feedback, and if you have any suggestions to better my work, please feel free to leave them

P.S. This will overwrite yours, so back up your original file. Also if you have any custom interior, i think it overwrites that too. But feel free to use my grille thing in any projects, just give me credit

It's a good start, however I would advise you to first make the file at least 1024x1024 resolution (2048x2048 is even better) before starting to make any modifications to it. That way the texture will look much much better in the game. The default 512x512 just won't cut it.

Ok, But how do I do that? Just double the size before starting?

Yup. Just open up any default texture and increase it's size. After that just add new layers on top of it, using the original as a guide. It's that easy. Just so you get a taste of it, here's what level of detail a 2048x2048 texture will give you:

very nice!

Just a little note though: 2048x2048 is for extreme situations, and if you use it in a server with a lot of players it will eat up a lot of your video card's memory, and LFS may not have enough memory space for other textures. I'm not saying this will happen ofter, but it's a definite possibility. 1024x1024 should be enough in most cases, and that's the one I reccomend.

nice adrenaline, downloaded and using.

Are those high res lights?

If so where did you get em from?

Yea, it took a while to find on the net, but they were very high res BMW headlights. Unfortunately it was a while ago and I don't remember where I found them. I think they look awsome on the XFG, because it has the front end of a BMW.
