Moving the car files is helpful when you want to sort your cars or move them to another career.

Here are some basics you need to know before you start:


The game is located at:

To find your steam library folder go to
Steam > Settings > Downloads >STEAM LIBRARY FOLDERS

To get to the game directory quickly
in your steam library right-click on "Street Legal Racing: Redline 2.3.1",
then "Properties",
then "LOCAL FILES" tab,
then "BROWSE LOCAL FILES" button


If not done already set your Windows to show file extensions, so that you clearly see what files you are dealing with in the game folder and beyond. Also it's better for your security, read the linked article explaining why and how do to it:
https://www.howtogeek.com/205086/beginner-how-to-make-windows-show-file-extensions/

The careers are here:
In there you'll find the folders like these:
-[number] at the end represents the club.
If you are at the first club only "your_career_name-1" will be there.


In your career folder there will be files named "PlayerCar[n]", for example:

The number right behind "PlayerCar" is the car lot number starting at 0.
So car lot position is equal to n+1

Sometimes there will be files with a dot and a number after the car lot number, for example: PlayerCar0.1
These are extra files belonging to PlayerCar0 and should be moved/copied/renamed together.
(These files are paintjob of the car parts. If there aren't any, the car hasn't been painted or scratched)

So looking again at the example you'll see that:

Another example

Just copy or move the files from one career to another. If there already are some cars in there, you will probably need to rename the files first, or use "Save car" in main menu to name them properly.


Load career with cars you want to move

1. select a car
   
2. go back to main menu
   
3. click "Save car"
   
4. name the car "PlayerCar[n]" where [n] is the desired number
   Attention! If you have other keyboard than QWERTY some chars may be swithed up
   
5. click save

Repeat the steps for other cars.
You will find the files here:
Then just move these files to your other career.

Note: By default there is no possibility to remove these files in game.
You can use "Classic Main Menu" for this.







You can do this manually but it takes a while and can get confusing, so use a tool like "Ant Renamer" to rename many files quickly.

Click "Add Files..." and select the files or drag and drop them to the window.



Go to "Actions" and select string replacement. Set it up like below, set search and replace as you need. You can see a preview at the bottom. When ready click "Go" to rename the files.

For example you have this:
and want to switch places of the car 1 and car 3 in the car lot.

1. rename "PlayerCar2" to "PlayerCarX"
   
2. rename all "PlayerCar0" files to "PlayerCar2"
   
3. rename "PlayerCarX" files to "PlayerCar0"
