OK, I'm just getting started with modding, and I've figured out some of the basic stuff, namely projectile swaps, shader swaps, etc. I'm using Insolence, and I've got a few questions:
1. How can I change the damage of a projectile?
2. How come my swapped shaders don't remain on the weapons when you get too close to them?
3. What are some good reskinning programs? I know Photoshop is one, but I don't have it. I tried doing some reskins in MS Paint, but when I try to load the bitmaps I extract from Insolence, it's in .dds format, and Paint won't load it.
4. How do I apply new skins, for say, a Warthog, in Insolence? Can I just replace the bitmap in Insolence with the one I download, or do I have to do something special?
