Can any1 tell me what to do now
here is the top 10 things you should do (assuming you REALLY want to race in this league)

1. stop posting so much. try to limit yourself to like 1 or 2 posts per day

2. don't put any energy into painting at this point. just open the game and pick one that is already there

3. stop posting so much

4. practice by yourself when nobody else is around. race the track not the other drivers. you can practice that all by yourself

5. stop posting so damn much. if you haven't noticed, its turning people against you

6. try being humble and open to learning something instead of a loud mouth know it all while in the server

7. stop posting so damn much. even a guy like me who wants to help will turn a deaf ear to you very soon

8. stop posting so darn much. not one person i know of in the nhrl even thinks you are serious because of your clown like postings every 2 minutes

9. stop worrying about painting. nobody will even bother to download your paint anyway at this point. i know i wont. spend that time more wisely, practicing

10. last but not least. stop posting so damn much.

EF's right on target.. RE-READ what he's says about 10 times, so that it sinks in to what he is telling YOU!!!!

What makes you think you are going to be able to participate in the next CTS series, if there is one?

He posted a template in a thread. (psp7 version) so people could download. I belive the thread was called PSP7/PSd templates or something.
I took the blank template and painted it.

Did you save that psp file?

You need to open it, turn off the help, and mask layers, then save it as a .tga file.

Then you need to download WinResTools Wizard from the Mod Squad.

You open winrestools wizard and convert the .tga to a .tex file. it should be numbered with a 3 digit number that isn't already taken. (I believe that Pparaday has the #24 claimed already in the NHRL so if you plan on racing here, you'll have to change your number also)

That .tex file goes into your mod folder. (if it's the NHRL cup mod, it goes into the nhrlcup folder. If it's a CTS truck it goes into the CTS folder. etc)

If you are in an online racing league, you share that .tex file with others so they can put it in their mod folder and see your car.

That's how it's done.
