OK since your the n00b i saw post how to skin yesterday i will tell you!


Open hmt open a .map file (bloodgulch.map, etc.) go to the vehicle you want to skin save to desktop. then open it from desktop then you skin it. after you skin it open hmt back up (if you closed it) open the same .map file you chose go to the vehicle you just skinned and press inject texture. then it will open a box and choose the file on your desktop that you skinned and SAVED and choose to inject that.. and when you open halo find the vehicle you skinned and it should be the way ya put it :wink:

Everything from making the skin and applying is in the tutorial. Is anyone interested in other beginning skins for other vehicles?

Hey. I'm completely new to modding, but am sorta kinda getting the hang of it. My really big project that I've started is a yellow banshee mod, but I dunno how to change the skins/do anything else, lol.

A banshee skin would be nice.

Great idea, btw

Ok a beginning banshee skin...I will try to have it done by the end of this week probably sooner. It takes time to separate the banshee's bitmap section by section but i will get it done as soon as possible.

First off what are you talking about? Are you suggesting that I crack paint shop pro and get a longer trial? Hell no.

That is against the law and besides I allready bought the full version. So please dont talk about such things on my topic.

For your problem, be sure that you but the dds. plugin into your plugins folder.

Ok the folder your looking for is with the Paint Shop Pro files. Go to where ever you installed it to and its in there. Just but the plugin in the plugin folder thats where you installed paint shop pro.
