Thanks. I like the pic too
Is it possible to add this fix in the download database ? Because i do not really know in which category it could be classified

Only the "cars" section has an upload button.

Whoops, looks like I screwed up on the permissions. My bad, thanks for pointing that out. You can upload it now.

I've looked at the permissions and everything seems to be in order...where are you trying to upload it? Is it an external file link or an upload?

In the miscellaneous section. And this is an upload directly from my computer.
Whatsoever i choose "miscellaneous" or "texture mods", i still can not upload the file

Alright, just upload it to another section such as Cars and I'll move it for you. I also hope it's inside of a .ZIP/.RAR/.7Z file and that you're not trying to upload a .LEV file (because you can't upload those).

Is there a mirror for this fix. It looks like it was removed from the downloads section.

The majority or even all of the downloads have disappeared for a long time following the "redesign" of the site

Ah damn, is there nowhere that this and other old resources were backed up? It's a shame that content like this will be lost to time.

Well sorry I looked into my hard drives, it looks like I don't have the texture fix anymore (it's been a long time since I created it). Even a research with the Wayback machine gave nothing.

Thanks for checking!
As it appears the original file may be gone, I decided to see if I can remake it using the Driver Texture Editor, and after a bunch of messing around I have! Unzip and replace the files in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\GT Interactive\Driver\Levels' directory. Now those strange pink pixels on the wheels in the SF area are gone. Not sure why they were there in the first place!!
I've uploaded it to Mega for posterity. Link here.
