Hey I think it's because in the series.str file the Skin has to have the exact same name as the FOLDER name of the skin...and make sure it's for the chassis in your series.

Joey,

Shock was not lying when he said you have to have the EXACT folder name on the "car =" line. Also make sure that the EXACT folder for the skin is followed by a "\\0" You have to have backslashes. Beyond that, follow Shock's advice and make sure that all of your skins match the chassis. If you check that for all 60 cars and still have problems, check to make sure that the numbers in brackets are in sequence (the line of code that reads "[driver 1]" and so on). Most of the time when a non-existent car error occurs, it's because of a simple typo.

Let us know if you try to troubleshoot and still can't get the series to work.

Just wanted to say thanks i got it 2 work it was the \\0 that i didnt have. Thanks Shock and chzbrgr

I just uploaded a text document I had on offline series making to the editing corner section. It has some good tips in it if you are interested.
