- 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 either side of the cab to enter a different UUID for each side.
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.
