Made skins, injected them an they don't show up

Post by reas11 »

This has been bugging me for hours i've read clear the cache in the x y z drives but when i ftp in i have no x y z drives

any help i already cleared the cache on the E drive.

I used this tut to make my skin http://forums.halodev.org/index.php?sho ... &show=&st=&

i used the standard_warthog.dds file and the above method i then saved it and injected it onto the standard_warthog file on my map the picture in the raw data window changes to my skin i save changes fix signitures and the warthog looks exactly the same.

make sure you've internalized the bitmap, and as far as clearing caches use Evox to FTP, some ftp severs do serve those files

use Internalize Bitmap to internalize your bitmap, iternalizing means that the bitmap is part of the map not in the shared or manimenu.

Yep, Just make your skin, save to the correct format and reinject to your map and internalize.
