How to put the addons of HQTM Team?
Hello, I want to know how to put the add-ons to HQTM Team? I try to download an add-on, unzip and put in the file MM2, but it does not work.

[Franch88]

What add-on do you mean? Are they the BoosterMM add-ons included with the Classic Madness or are they the older HQTM-Team's add-ons?
If they're the firsts, you have to put they once a time; if they are the seconds, is better to use they once a time, but some other can be used with other add-ons, like the Hummfred's Traffic Mod, the Skidsmark Mod and the Chinese + Sheep and Wolf Mod.

No, add-ons (cars)

[Franch88]

Damn, I've confused add-ons for mods.
However for the HQTM-Team's add-on cars are like the others; unzip the .ar file from the .7z file and put it in your main MM2 folder. It'll will always work, but if you've too .ar files in your MM2 game folder, the game will crash while loading or when you're choosing a vehicle in the Vehicle Showcase menu.
To solve this simply problem remove some older .ar file from the game, especially the one that you aren't using, and the game sure won't crash.

LOL! Explain better yourself next time! You were talking about cars as add-ons.

They are the add-on colors to the HQTM-Team's cars which are used with their program MM2 Car Skin Changer. They must be used this this original and very good program.
So, it's very easy: Download the archive of the program MM2 Car Skin Changer here, extract its files in a new folder, start the program through the .exe file (it'll create two folders), choose English language and click on the upper button Download add-ons from Internet. For first, choose the HQTM-Team website, and select the color add-ons that you want to download; you can also download them all. After the download, the folder carsColors will be filled with the car colors files and the folder carsAddons will be filled with the few add-ons available for their cars.
The folder carsID is already filled of the cars ID files, that needs to recognize a loaded car into the program.
Now, open a car (the program will choose automatically its car ID file) and you'll see its colors; now choose some colors from the downloaded ones and click in the button Add at the end (you can add until 10 colors for car). Finally click Save. Start the game, choose the edited car and enjoy the new colors!

It's compatible with Vista?

It's compatible with Vista?

Yes, it's compatible with Windows Vista, but you have to run the .exe file with the administrator rights: right click on the program .exe file and choose Run as administrator. You have to do this because the program will connect to the Internet to download the files.
The first time you have to click in the Unlock button of the Windows firewall, if active, while connecting.

I get an error on CSC: I load a !62.AR but there is an error message ''There is no car ID files for car you selected''.

I get an error on CSC: I load a !62.AR but there is an error message ''There is no car ID files for car you selected''.

The car ID file of the Mayback 62 comes with the program in the carsID folder. Try to replace it with the one available from the HQTM-Team website here.

[quickstyl92]

Always the same message.

[Franch88]

This happens only with the Maybach 62? For me work all fine, and it's the same car ID file.
Does the !62.ar file have the .ar extension in capital letters? But this isn't the cause.

[quickstyl92]

my file is !62.ar no extensions.

[Franch88]

Do you have read my post about the Vista compatibility? You have to run MM2CSC with the administrator rights. Maybe this problem is given by this, and this is why I've asked to you if also other HQTM-Team's cars gives this error in program.

How does MM2CSC cause "unauthorized changes" to your pc? It doesn't even affect the Program Files.
