Tools Needed
DXTBmp-you can find DXTBmp here :http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/pr ... dxtbmp.htm
Paint(lol)

1) open desired skin (i chose Marine helmet HUD)

2)Double click the Alpha pic (Top Right)

3)Edit what u like out of it ( i made it broken)

4)save it to your Desktop(or an easy place to find it)
and load it up in DXTBmp.

5)then save it , then inject it into a Map


The finished product should be a marine with a broken HUD piece,
u can apply this method to other skins and make some really captivating skins

ok heres an ingame pic, not very clear but it shows

as u can see its transparent , and u can see the eye (not very clearly though

[H3X]

do i inject it in DXT 1,3, or 5? and how do you color it transparent? thx for the tut!

[sgtbotley]

to be honest it could be DXT 1. coz if you really wanna test this, get the moon outta bloodgulch and you will see theres a blue square around it, well if you reskin the moon, and add the alpha of a black circle you will see the moon on its own.
