First you have to get the .dds plugin. then put hat in ur plgunis folder then go to dothalo, and go into the bitmap tag ( [bitm] ) then extract what you want to skin. go back into your Program and open it and jsut skin it how ever you want. ( note, it will be a 2d image and you will have to know were everything is.) once done save it as a .dds and after you click save a box will come up and ask you which kind you want to save it as check back in the raw editor in dothalo to see what it is.. so then after that, you haev to use the bitmap internaziler to internalize it, then jsut clear your cache, ( xyz drives). have fun. :D

oh, and instead of skinning the sky, jsut swap it with what you want ( just a thought ) :lol:

You go back to the bitmap tag and find the bitmap you skinned and click Inject.
