Create your own skins?

How can you make your own skins for your U boat? What do I download?

Hi, welcome to Subsim.:up:

Have a look here - http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=100366

I wrote this awhile ago and it may help you. The only thing I would add to this tutorial is that you don't need to repack and *.DAT files (if using GWX), just add them to the textures folder.

There are links to programs needed within the PDF/DOC. You will also need a graphics program/suite that can handle *.TGA file.

You can find all of Timtravellers tools here - http://files.filefront.com/TimeTravellersToolszip/;9373071;/fileinfo.html

See how you go, however, I can give you a head start with JSGME arranged blank/default TGA files. Just create copies and work on them in their current locations. Type 7 & 9 files are available here:

VII - http://files.filefront.com/VII+Textures7z/;7587495;/fileinfo.html

Always looking for new skins, so please share anything you feel we would like to see.
