Thanks for your reply Mittelwaechter.
Another quick question:
When editing or rather skinning Subs for example, how do i know what i'm changing in respect to what part of the ship.
Specifically these files: UFlak_High, mask_type, conning_stuff, Turm7c_1_deck for instance.
I understand the hull, deck files of course, pretty self-explanatory, just wondering about the above-mentioned.
What part of the ship are they?
I'm starting to get used to Gimp, and the different tools available within the program, but get a little stuck on some of those file names, and where they are on the ship. I've started experimenting skinning my own sub, albeit the outcome is still very simplistic

I'm still learning.
As for install directory, i assume, after inspecting other skin mods submitted by users in the past that the install directory is ALWAYS Data/Textures/TNormal/tex?
Thanks in advance
