It says "Yes i am english" :)

 

It looks even better on my black merculago

Hee,

Im a new guy here. My english is not so good by the way. I saw some nice plates. But is there someone who can make a dutch license plate? I want to have a plate of the new series like 9-JLS-11.

 

It would mean a lot to me.

 

 

 

edit: like this but than smaller.

Yes I like the 9-JLS-11 ( Ja de 9-JLS-11 is goed, en ietsjes kleiner dat er niet zo'n groot vlak geel aan de zijkant zit waar niks op staat)

And a little bit smaller.

Ok, well, about the spacing: you're stuck to 256x128px. You could work with a smaller plate by "cutting away" a part with an alpha layer, but I don't think that looks nice.

 

Anyway, I'll try to complete the plate tonight and add them to filefront.

I'll let you know when it's done.

Fed up of personalised plates? Can't think of anything witty? Would rather an option to remove plates altogether? Well, this isn't it, but might make you happier...

The plain plates set

In black, white, grey and lighter grey. If you don't like WS models you can always have this for a flat one.

 

[Andreas¹]

Hm, what would happen if you made a transparent plate?

[Andreas¹]

LOL

Transparent plate anyone? :D

Remember to rename to Common_Car.bnk (please note, the a in 'car' is missing in the file you download, don't know why)

Hey Jorn,

 

I finally finished your plates, sorry that it took a little longer, I got caught-up in a movie :-D! (that's also why I just took a quick screenshot, and noticed afterwards, that the plate isn't as clear in the picture as ai thought it was)

 

Hope you like 'em!

Hi all,

 

I tried to create a custom plate per. my sibling's request, but it didn't work - I just wound up with a black blob/box when I finished. I checked all the settings and everything seemed correct; what am I doing wrong?

[Andreas¹]

Probably compressing it wrong me thinks, try it again, and always double check the settings :)

[bookworm]

x.x I did... and I recompressed three, maybe four times (trying the whole thing each time from the beginning) each time checking the pictures posted with the tut.

 

I'm also getting a 'the network connection was lost' error/game crash every 10-15 minutes, even though I haven't used GameSpy's network yet...

[Andreas¹]

Wierd, it all works for me...
