Post Making Advert Entity
I want to make some adverts to place along the rail of a track I'm working on. 1. I make a png image of the advert. 2. I seem to recall you have to use a utility in the game files to create the other files associated with it. Can someone please refresh me on what to do? Thanks.

There are two things you could do:

1) If you want the ad to be the 3D ad entity (the one that has it on both sides and stands up in a triangle fashion) you need to overwrite one of the images (numbered 1 - 20) in the folder 3D>entities>misc. It need to be a PNG.

2) If you want the image to be a flat 2D entity, place the PNG in the folder 3D>entities>photos and click & run the program "CreateModelsFromPNG" that is in that same folder. Give it a second and then you are all good to use it in the editor. Be warned, the image entity will have no blank back - from behind it will look like the mirror image of whatever your image is.
