What shaders change

Shaders are custom paint jobs. They change how vehicles or skins look, not the model.

Shader use

A custom car shader changes how your vehicle looks.

Shaders stay linked to your account, so you can reapply them later.

Vehicle shaders are managed with:

• /vehskin

Skin shaders are separate and use:

• /customskin
