Re: Black vinyls are incorrectly rendered

Product: Need for Speed: Unbound
Platform:PC
Summarize your bug The wrap design of the car on the right side of the car disappears, moment to moment, in story mode.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? The bug occurs when the vehicle is being chosen in the garage or changing cars during meet ups.
What happens when the bug occurs? Only the silhouette of the wrap appears but not the actual wrap.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the proper wrap being displayed.

‌

I love this game, hopefully it keeps receiving patches.

@thedst11 I'm having the exact same issue and I found another topic where another person also had this issue; they got a very generic response as to how to fix the issue (basically "check for file corruption"), but considering how this is happening to multiple people in the exact same side of the car, this is probably an actual bug, not a "corrupted file".

This has happened to me a few times, usually just restarting and then opening the wrap editor fixes it for me.
The game tries to bake the decals onto the car's texture and just fails for some reason. It's only saving the metalness/specular map, but not the diffuse or color map. Editing the wrap will force it to regenerate.
