How to Use the Decal Pack
-------------------------
If you are using Trading Paints, you will need to disable file cleanup on exit and when downloading new paints. See "Configure Trading Paints" below.
If you are not using trading paints you can skip ahead and go straight to "Installing the Decals". You do not need to use Trading Paints for the decals to work.

Configure Trading Paints
------------------------
1) Open Trading Paints Preferences (right-click on the Trading Paints icon on your task bar or close and re-launch the app).
2) Expand the Advanced Options and uncheck the boxes for "Clean up downloaded files when I exit iRacing" and "Clean up drivers’ existing paint files before fetching new paints".
3) Save your changes

Installing the Decals
---------------------
1) Download the decal pack from the link provided
2) Extract the decal pack to your preferred location on your PC
Right click on the downloaded zip file and select 'Extract All'
The decal pack contain 2 folders with decals for the cars used in the 2026 TRS:
porsche963gtp
porsche992rgt3
The folders correspond to the iRacing paint folders for the Porsche 963 GTP and Porsche 911 GT3R (992) usually found in 
C:\Users\<your user name>\Documents\iRacing\paint\

3) Copy both folders to the iRacing paint folder C:\Users\<your user name>\Documents\iRacing\paint\
Windows will ask if you want to merge the folders, select yes. Windows may also ask if you want to replace any existing files with the new ones, select yes.

When you start a new iRacing team session the decals should appear on your team's car as well as any other team's car in the session.
If you are already in a session when you copy the files, you can refresh paints using ctrl+r on the keyboard.

For help using the decals or configuring Trading Paints please ask for help in the pixelated-paint-booth channel under Virtual World in the PCA Sim Racing Discord.

Good luck in the TRS,
