erfd Posted February 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Have you unlocked the .dds files? How do you unlock them? I think thats the problem. The error was in the dds convertor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCERT1 Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Hoppah locks his skins.To Unlock:1. rename the .dds to a .v3o (you'll also have to change the name more too since the body protoype has the same name.2. Go into the editor, and unpack the renamed .v3o file. (You'll also have to do this with the other model files in order to change the skin on the model)3.After Unpacking it, rename if back to a .dds It will then be unlocked.
