6) Custom Decal Textures
This HD Vehicle supports the ability to set your own decal textures.
The way this system works is by changing the side textures of the cab, instead of using just a single decal overlay.
You can utilize this system by activating the 'Customize' mode (Noted in 2.3) then bring up the Theme Menu of the vehicle and select 'Setup'
- Base Theme allows you to choose which theme you want to base your custom decal textures on
- UUID Recall gives you a list of the currently applied decal textures
- Install allows you to install a complete custom theme through a special HD Theme Box (Noted in 7)
While in the customize mode click on any of the doors of the cab to enter a different UUID for each door.
You can click on the decals on the rear box of the vehicle to apply your own lettering.
If at any point you'd like to reset a texture you've entered, you can do so by entering anything that does not represent a valid UUID into the text field.
The truck will automatically activate 'Custom' as active theme whenever you add a new texture UUID.
You can also manually activate use of the custom decal textures by selecting 'Custom' in the Theme menu.
You can use the supplied texture templates as a starting point.
NOTE: You are only allowed to use those when you accept the conditions that are laid out in the disclaimer notecard within the texture templates box.
