It's pretty self explanatory. What are you doing?

Since you mentioned Bloodgultch in your skin section, does that mean that you can only skin weapons, vehicles and the MC in multiplayer? How would I go about adding skins to the campaign, or is it the same process?

It's the same process, and skins are automatically applied to all maps, so if you inject a new warthog skin in Bloodgulch, for example, it will show up in every other level with a warthog in.
For anybody still wondering where FTD has gone, here it is.

Thank you very much. I'll let y'all know how it works out whether ya care or not. :D I'm a bit of a photoshop guru and I've done some work on some other peoples' skins. If I decide to post em, they'll be in downloads and I won;t take credit where credit's not due. Thanks for the help.

Ok guys n gals, so far so good on the skinning with one exception. How do I get the cyborg skins into campaign mode? I've replaced the cyborg dff and it looks right on the HMT editor, but in game, he's still green. Anything anyone?

Pepsi wrote a skinning tutorial which covered this, so I'll be brief. You need to edit the cheif's [soso] tag in HMT and set the colour change to 'NONE'.

dude what ddid you meant by this?
"double click on the file; it should open in Winrar. Simply find the "extract all" (or whatever it's called) button, and why not check the "open in explorer" button in the bottom left corner to save us the trouble of finding the decompressed folder by ourselves?"

man this is so confusing if at least we had pictures

Rars are like zip files, excpet that the compression is somewhat better. You can get Winrar for free here: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
