Firstly, check out the Custom-Cars/Original Cars folder. Cars are sorted into their applicable folders and then are credited in the README.md
Want to add a Custom Car to the repo?

  1. In order to add your own cars to this repo, you first must make a github account and contact either Tribow or Omega on the Distance Discord so we can allow you to edit the repo. (dont contact omega yet)
  2. Go to your desired folder you want to add a car to.
  3. Select the Add File dropdown and select Upload Files
  4. You will now be able add your custom car file to that folder. Once you're done select the green Commit Changes button
  5. Your car is added! One more thing. The folder will have a README.md that you can edit by selecting the pencil shaped button.
  6. Just add your credits within the that file and select the green Commit Changes button. (if the crediting format is confusing to you just put your credits somewhere. One of us will fix the formatting later).

Don't want to edit the repo directly yourself? (note that this is slower and you still need a github account)

  1. Go to the Issues tab and select the New Issues button.
  2. Select the Get Started button for the Submit Car template
  3. Fill out the form as directed. Those who are able to edit the repo will then be able to add a car themselves

Don't want to edit the repo directly OR fill out an Issue form?
Here is another alternative method to add your own car to the repo:

  1. Download and install git if you don't already have it.
  2. Log in to Github and Fork the repo by clicking the Fork button in the top right corner.
  3. Click the green Clone or download button, and copy the link.
  4. Clone the new repo.
    • Windows:
      1. Open any folder in explorer.
      2. Hold shift and right-click any empty part of the folder.
      3. Hit either "Open PowerShell window here" or "Open command window here" depending on your version of Windows.
      4. Type in git clone and paste the link (ctrl+v) and hit enter (full command should look something like git clone https://github.com/YourName/Custom-Cars.git).
      5. Don't close the window, you'll need it again later.
  5. When the repo is done being cloned, place your custom car inside your desired directory.
  6. Go back to the console window and type cd Custom-Cars and hit enter.
  7. Type git add . and hit enter.
  8. Type git commit -m "Adding my own custom car" and hit enter (or use whatever message you want after the -m).
  9. Type git push origin master and hit enter.
    • At this point, you will likely be asked to login to Github.
  10. Once the push has finished, create a Pull Request (PR) and click on compare across forks.
  11. In the head repository drop-down, select YourName/Custom-Cars.
  12. Hit the green Create pull request button, and then on the next page, the green Create pull request button again.
  13. Question your life decisions for choosing the hardest and most time consuming method.
