Overview
This guide explains step by step how to add your own vehicle to the Brick Rigs main menu, where only Fluppi’s original vehicles can be seen.
Step 1
Attention! A small preface. If you do not trust the handling of files, or have never copied, moved, deleted or whatever in the “My Documents”, please be careful or let someone help you with Windows.
I wrote this guide as easily as possible and supported it with screenshots. I can not do any more, I can neither look at your computer nor know what Windows knowledge you have. So in case of doubt, I’d rather ask for help, or, I’m sorry, just let it be. Thank you!
Please be fair and do not give directly Dislikes just because your own vehicle can not be seen directly on the first try in the main menu. Due to the game updates of the last months, there is only a 1: 9 chance that your own vehicle can be seen in the main menu with each call of the main menu !!!! I can not change that, complain to Fluppi. 😀

In the editor, we create a savegame with one or more vehicles we would like to see on the main menu. How to combine several vehicles into one savegame, I probably do not have to explain to anyone, right? : D
For this guide I have used my ugly east zone vehicles, here of course everyone should make their own selection.
As you can see on the screenshots, it is important to orient yourself at the arrow in the editor and position the vehicles on the same level.
You need to try something out of alignment. You can see the approximate direction by the arrow on the screenshot.
In this example, I simply called the savegame “Titelscreen”. Here you can of course choose a savegame name as you wish, my “Titelscreen” is just one example!
But note: if you choose your own name, you must of course use it in step 2 !!!
Step 2
Exit Brick Rigs and now we open the folder with the Brick Rigs savegames.
For example on Windows7 PC’s you will find your savegames here: C:UsersUsernameAppDataLocalBrickRigsSavedVehicles
Now open the “Titelscreen” (Or as you called your savegame!!!) folder. Here you will find a file called “vehicle.brv”.
Step 3
Now open the folder in which Brick Rigs respectively the original main menu files are stored.
In my case, this is: D:ProgrammeSteamsteamappscommonBrickrigsBrickRigsContentBrickRigsVehicles
Attention! Steam can of course be installed on another drive or in another folder on your PC! This is just an example where my Steam folder is located!!! I cannot know where your Steam Library is located!
Now copy the “vehicle.brv” we found in step 2 in your own savegame folder to the “Vehicles” folder opened in step 3.
Step 4
That’s it! To make sure you have your own creation at the start of the game, you can move the original vehicles by Fluppi (the other .brv files) to another folder and play back in an emergency case. Or you make a backup copy of the entire Brick Rigs folder before …;)
Have fun with the new main menu.
