NASCAR PAINTKIT

"How To Use Customized Individual Cars In NASCAR Racing"

The PaintKit included with NASCAR by Papyrus
allows you to change the decals, colors, and
even the Pit Crew's uniform, of each team's
car.  This outline was made to assist users
in bringing downloaded cars into their NASCAR
game.

1.	Go into the NASCAR PaintKit.

2.	Find the car you want to get rid of.

3.	Click the EXPORT button at the bottom.
	(remember the sponsor and car number.)

4.	Exit PaintKit and look in the directory
	C:\NASCAR.  You should see a .PCX file 
	in the form "sponsor+number.PCX"  For
	this example, I'll call this file
	NASC94.PCX (which is your car in the
	game.)
	
	(Extra)  If you want to save the original
	car for later, COPY, not move, the file
	to C:\NASCAR\CARS\ORIGINAL

5.	IMPORTANT:  PaintKit will only import 
	a car with the same name to the same 
	location.  What this means is that you
	must copy CHEER.PCX as NASC94.PCX 
	and put it in the C:\NASCAR directory.
	Now the file NASC94.PCX is really the
	Cheer Car.

6.	Enter PaintKit, go to the old car you
	are trying to get rid of, and click
	IMPORT.  You should see the new Cheer
	car.

7.	Remember that you are only importing
	decals.  Now you must go to "Paint
	Shop" and "Paint Suit" to match colors
	with the decals you just imported.

8.	Click Save.

9.	To see the results, enter NASCAR, select
	Driver Info, Opponents, and find your new
	car.  Pretty slick eh?

If this seems like a lot of work, it's really not
that bad once you do it a few times.  I think the
results are by far worth the effort.  There are
a few bad cars in the game that need replaced
and there are a lot of cool cars you can download
in the Sports Simulations Forum on CompuServe.
