help with skinning

[kenijaru]

Hello,

I've tried to do some skins but I'am doing something wrong... aparently.

I copied the file named "NSS_Uboat7c_hull.tga on my desktop
(from: C:\Archivos de programa\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Textures\TLo wRes\tex)
I edited it and saved it on the same folder, with the same name, overwriting the old skin.
But when i play the game (both with the VIIC and VIIB), I still see the old skin.

please help me (if I make it work i might post some screens of my pathetic work )

Ken.

Not knowing if you are running stock or GWX 1.03 hard to tell, my advice is to ask bigboywooly or Seth so you can down load the templates and use them.

Good Luck.

You must replace old file with new file in: C:\Archivos de programa\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Textures\Tno rmal\tex directory.
Any effect?

the "tnormal/tex" directory is empty, should i still place it there?

i have the JSGME, but still you need to create a dummy directory to place the .tga's or whatever you intend on modding.

Also, I actually tried to put my skin via the JSGME, but didn't work.

QSL (if it is spelt that way... and if it is also an international "thingy")
if it isn't:
Roger that.




EDIT:
I placed the .tga on the TNormal directory (using JSGME) but (*sigh* still) i see the old skin (I use the naval academy navigation mission for testing

I put the grafics on "high" by leaving the "X" or by removeing it? (in the options > video part of the game menu)
common cense says "X means allowed" but trying on missions says otherwise :S

Yes!

In your game options, the setting for graphics should be set to high, and putting the tga there will make your game pick it up!
