You need:
- Ikarus 280
- car ID for Ikarus 280
- sample textures
- MM2CSC
- MM2VV for tests, you don't need it, but it can help you
- graphic program (Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Gimp, etc)
Please read also tutorial and user manual.

First you have to download sample textures and unpack it somewhere. Then edit them in your graphic program.
When you finish or you'd like to test how it looks on the bus, you have two options:
1. you can install them to the bus and check in the game - read instructions
2. you can use MM2VV to check how your textures looks on bus (you don't need to start the game) - it's fastest the method and it's recommended for tests.

Here is instructions how to use MM2VV:

Code: Select all

-----------------------------------
        How to use MM2VV
-----------------------------------
1. Unpack samples textures (to e.g. C:\s4_sample)
2. Run MM2VV
3. Click "Open..." and select car (e.g C:\MM2\!s4.ar)
4. Click "Select textures directory" and browse to directory contains sample
   textures (e.g. C:\s4_sample)
5. You will see car with new textures
6. Run your graphic program and change sample textures (e.g. repaint them)
7. In MM2VV click "Reload textures" and check for changes
When you finish your color, you should test it in game, because in MM2VV textures don't look exactly the same as in the game. So use instructions and check it in the game.

If your colors is ready for release, you should create color pack. How to do it ?? Please check section "Create your own color pack" in user manual.

That's all, I hope I helped :)

Hey, it´s me again. I´ll do my colours, if it´s impossible. Right now, it´s hard to understand, what and where :P
And how to edit other colours, which are in game (like Blaupunkt etc.) ?

You cannot, you can only try to replace them with your own.
