NVFD520 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 It must be exactly the same as before Example: If it was a DDS before it has to be a DDS when you reskin it and use DDS converter to convert it to DDS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goog Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 go into your model files,lets say you want the chp charger (for example):1.find dodge_charger_chp.dds change it to dodge_charger_chp1.V3O(watch spelling spaces and all) when it asks you too change file say yes.2.open editor choose mod and navigate to dodge_charger_chp1.V3O click unpack3.go back to your main mod folder and re-name dodge_charger_chp1.V3O back to dodge_charger_chp.dds confirm name change.4.use dds converter to find and convert (dodge_charger_chp.dds) to a PNG5.open with gimp2 or paint whatever you use.this is as simple as it gets hope it helps you....make sure the model file is named the same as the texture file ex..dds/.dds or .png/.png.

goog Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 ok then, if your models are white it means they are not linked to the image files...check if they have dds or png what ever your image file is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
