Assetto Corsa also has the very open mod friendly mindset. Not sure if it's CM themselves or the engine that doesn't allow it.
Both to an extent, but in the end it's all down to Codies.
Codies made the engine to be fairly secure in a lot of areas, but it's the lack of tools or SDK's publicly available that is the limiting factor and its up to developers/publishers to provide those.
Or for communities to reverse engineer things, which is obviously harder.
Basically, no one has figured out a way to compile a 3D model in the compatible format, which would typically be done either by a plugin to 3D modelling software or as a separate program which converts one 3D model format + possibly other elements into the games format.
That's how we can add models from other EGO games that are already in a compatible format, but not add new ones.

An engine can always accept new things, you just need the correct tools to do it.

They also use there own in house file formats as well. Not sure what AC uses.
Well... yeah, that's pretty normal. I feel like you missed the point.
It's not about the file formats as such, most games use their own formats.
It's about having the tools that let you modify and create those file formats.
Bethesda RPG's like The Elder Scrolls and Fallout still use proprietary formats like .esp (ElderScrollsPlugin) or .bsa (Bethesda's equivalent of Codies PSSG. A compressed archive) but are some of the most moddable games out there, because the full SDK's are officially released, meaning modders have essentially the same tools as the developers themselves.

I've updated the Alitalia Stratos with the historic Monte Carlo 1977 version. Download link is here.
I decided to not have new updates or projects for a while. The game is 1.0 and there are plenty of skins to play with so you can't really complain :)
Happy rallying and modding and posting to everyone and thanks for the support.

If you don't mind paying a subscription, then Imageshack is great. Up to 25MB in file size, no storage and bandwidth limits even on the cheapest option, and no compression of your files. I've been using it for years and everything else just doesn't work as well.

Anyone going to do the Hyundaii with only the N logo on the hood? I really like that logo and it would be nicely looking on a bonnet cam ;)

I think you can tell Imgur to not compress. Look under "Settings -> Account" and bottom of the page says "Upload images in high quality" Maybe that works, haven't had a need to use PNG intentionally.

Mesa, that's a good looking skin, any chance you can put it on RaceDepartment? 
Already uploaded to RD, however i don't prefer that site.

hey guys i want to redo the polo livery in 8k with the various rally plates like i did for the i20, so i would like to ask for some help before i start, if anyone knows the exact driver roster and numbers (and any other variable on the livery) of the teams Volkswagen Motorsport and Volkswagen Motorsport II for Germany, Finland, Monte-Carlo, Sweden and Wales, please post it here or PM me, thanks in advance

also decided to post the numberplates i used to make the 8k liveries, if anyone wants fell free to use them as long as you post credits (YorAlcoholicDad here on the Codies Forum and #UD# On RaceDepartment)

Resolution is big enough to make liveries even bigger than 8k
(All Plates with the exception of the Dirt Rally ones needs to be color corrected to look good on the game, use -15 Saturation and -20 Lightness(Photoshop Hue/Saturation Adjustment) to get the right colors for the game render)

                                                                                                                       Jari-Matti Latvala/
Miikaa Antilla Car NR 2
                                                                              Volkswagen Motorsport II: Andreas Mikkelsen/Ola Floene Car NR 9

And on the back of the carOgier: #RIP Jules 
Latvala: #SISU

Here is favourite livery of mine. I know it is for 16v Integrales, not for the Evos, but the fact that DR doesn't contains them i made it for fun.
Didier Auriol - Bernard Occelli - Lancia Delt HF Integrale 16v 1990 Monte winner livery


The skin resolution is 4K - i don't think 8K skins should be fine with re-scaled templates. So the stripes looks a bit weird, it is by the distortions of the model, not depends on the quality of the skin.
