Creation
1) Subscribe for Original textures here:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2907722068
2) Launch the game. Original texture files will be now downloaded into game installation folder (usually it is: Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Bus World).
3) Inside the game installation folder open: Bus World_Data\StreamingAssets\OriginalTextures.
4) To create new paintjob, you need to copy folder corresponding to the needed bus (OSB-3101) and give it new name after an underscore (OSB-3101_RedBus). This game must be unique.
5) Inside thouse foulders are texture graphic files. Main color, "mask" and normal map. Change them as you wish with graphic redactor of your choice. Textures that is not present in folder will be taken from default paintjob.

  • Texture without suffix - main color
  • Texture _normal - used to change appeared surface curvature. You can use it to add small details but i advice to not touch it if you dont know what you are doing.
  • Texture _mask - used for metallicity, ambient occlusion and smoothness.


_mask chanels breakdown:
  • Red channel - metallicity
  • Blue channel - ambient occlusion
  • Green channel - not used
  • Alpha channel - smoothness

Is it also possible to make a texture for the KM Urban's seats?

The original "bodypaint.png" texture for it doesn't include the seats, and there are no separate seat texture files for it either (like most of the soviet buses have)
