Guest Utrechtterror Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Hey hax, in order to change a skin you need to follow these steps:1. Hi.2. Search the .dds file of the model.3. convert it with the DDS converter to BMP and open it in paint.. If you have Photoshop, use the Nvidia plugin to open it(so no need to convert then!).4. edit it.5. save it as .bmp and convert it with the dds converter, if you have photoshop with the nvidia plugin you can just save it as .dds6. the file has to have the original name7. drag and drop it into it's original map and when it asks if you want to replace it, press yes.8. play the game and see if it worked good luck, if you encounter any problems please let us know!

Guest Bruce563 Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 If you go to lamod.emergency-planet.comthere is a link at the top if the page saying "Downloads" if you click on that then under the em4 section click on "Misc" and then you can see the download on that list, if you download it and copy all files to the mod folder then you can add the commands to the vehicles using the editor.

Hoppah Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Well, you also need to edit a script for the siren command when you've made new prototype files for your vehicles. I've planned to make some tutorials after I have released v1.5 of the LA mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
