Custom decals for your tanks and museum.

1, Introduction, And Other.

This guide is aimed to help you in making custom decals/pictures.

The rest of the guide is quite old school for the older build.

The newer build comes shipped with Custom assets PDF to also help you,

located in. \steamapps\common\TankMechanicSimulator\ModdingTools\PDF Instructions\TMS Custom Assets.pdf

2, File Systems Used In Game.

File systems used in game.

Camo (TGA)

Decals (TGA)

Posters (TGA)

Flags (PNG)

Museum stands (PNG)

3, Software.

First we will need editing software that can make files in .TGA format

I like to use Paint . net you can get it here Website link [www.getpaint.net] completely free and easy to use,

IMPORTANT! Do not compress the pictures.

Note: More software could possibly do this job (must have .TGA format)

4, Finding The Game Files For Adding Or Replacing Pictures.

Now we find the files location, which would be here.

Common location, This is for when the game is on the same drive as Steam.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\TankMechanicSimulator\TankMechanicSimulator_Data\StreamingAssets\Textures

Uncommon location, This is when the game is on the separate drive to Steam.

D:\SteamLibary\steamapps\common\TankMechanicSimulator\TankMechanicSimulator_Data\StreamingAssets\Textures

5, Now To Get Started.

Now we open up our editing software comrade and make pictures for our museum to our liking.

End, Extra Saying.

Thank you for using my guide, it would be nice to hear feedback from you.

From here its pretty much easy as i'v said most of the things needed, if you encounter any problems please let me know so i can re-edit the guide.
