Installation
Requires ReSkate. LokiGarage approved the installed Test03 build in gameplay using ReSkate 1.1.6.
Launcher: after publication, install LokiGarage VANS Skatepark from the ReSkate Launcher's map list.
Manual:
- Close skate.
- Move older VANS test versions outside the game's Mods folder and keep them as backups. Enable one VANS version at a time; this release retains Test03's native asset identity.
- Extract this ZIP into /Mods/LokiGarage-VANS-Skatepark.
- Ensure reskate-levels.json, layout.toc and Win32 sit directly inside that folder.
- Start ReSkate and select LokiGarage VANS Skatepark.
Release notes and known limitations
Version 1.0.0 preserves the gameplay-approved Test03 compiled payload byte-for-byte. Public packaging changes the displayed map name and adds documentation and a thumbnail. Geometry, collision, textures, grind paths, spawn and scale are unchanged.
Some original layered materials, procedural decal effects, foliage wind and distance-dependent shading remain approximate. Repeat-texture resampling smooths some source normal-map detail. This conversion does not claim complete shader parity. Gameplay acceptance is not an exhaustive test of every grind or sound. Rain/weather integration is not included.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
