Maybe we should just wait for the full version before we start making sign packs for mx.
So far only picture files seem to work (jpg and what else?), maybe it'll change with the full version.

hmm are you saying that a sign might possibly show something other than a picture? that would be cool if you could set it so that it showed what was on your screen so you could watch yourself race similar to a big screen at a stadium, or sports arena.

I think he was talking more about .gif files and stuff like that
would be a cool idea if it could be done though..

Yeah well lol.. I guess my word choice was not the clearest. ^^

I was only able to use jpg so far. gif don't work, bik don't work, zip don't work. all the file types that worked in tmu.
So I'm hoping they will after the release of the final version.

but remember if you have made these custom signs, you will have to host them somewhere and make loc files for
them, so other people can see them !

In TM2 it's way easier.
In the editor when you choose a sign (Advert 1, Advert 2, Sign left, etc.) there is also a button 'Load from url' or something similar.
Just click that button, enter the url of your custom sign, and that's it.

but that was in TMU/F as well was it...i am for sure it was...

Well ff, if i would know how to do that, i will for sure do it!

Does the same signs works also in canyon?
does they requires different sizes?
If no, how i have to extract/put them?

I have a few signs (fake and unofficial ads, mainly) that I used to use in TMUF, and they work in TM2.

I recommend just linking to them so that they will be visible online.
