Sure....

Find the models (.gmt) and textures used by the showroom you prefer and point each/all cars to use those models and textures.

To make it simple now and for future updates to the showroom, you can make a showroom.GTR file.

Place the wanted .gmts and textures inside this archive package and then inside the CAS of each car/group, at the top of the CAS include this showroom.gtr like we do for all .GTR files that a CAS references.

i.e 
[color=#ff99ff]MASFile=Showroom.GTR[/color]
- or whatever you have named your mod's showroom.gtr file.


Put the Showroom.GTR at the top of the MASFILE= list to make sure no SAME named .gmts and texture files used by the 'other showrooms' get pulled from the other .gtr files as they will still exist in the mod unless you hunt them down and delete them.

Also make sure you then reference the showroom gmt file you wish to use in the CAS files. Maybe they are named differently for each car in their CAS so make sure you designate the one you want to use.

.ie
 [color=#ff99ff]<EXPO> MeshFile=[/color][b][color=#00ff00]Showroom.gmt [/color][/b][color=#ff99ff]CollTarget=False HATTarget=False ShadowReceiver=True LODIn=(0.0) LODOut=(80.0) Reflect=True[/color]
([i]Assuming that you named the showroom object as showroom.gmt of course[/i]).

If the showroom has more than one model then add in a similar fashion.
Of course these other models would also be in your showroom.gtr file.

This should give you a showroom that is used by all cars in your mod.

Good luck :)[/quote]
