Character Skins

Unless you're editing the text within .cal3d file as well In which case assigning it back and forth from a text editor to viewmesh may be less effective. I consider using the command prompt faster, personally.

Only problem I have had is making a dds file on the mac.

You don't have to. The image may be any format you want. Well, "any"

Well, in that case I will just have to find a nice quick dds converter and the photoshop-foo will fly. Thanks for the heads up Nikodemus. I shall return soon™ with some new skins.

Thanks ThomPhoenix for the heads up but I am using GraphicConverter X 5.9.5 to do some char. changes. Although, it all seems for not as of yet. I have changed the dds to jpg did some work on them; using that to replace the old files first as jpg then as dds. Had problems even know I zipped the folder back. Making all the names and everything look the same as it was before. Then upon loading the game to get a quick look it stopped at the char. screen. Then prompted me to run an update due to the server sending an invalid file name. Meaning I suppose it did not like the changes I made and required an update to fix it. I am not quite sure how to remedy this problem yet. Anyone else have a similar problem with skinning on a Mac?

::Edit:: Smacks head,"I could of had a V8!". Thanks Karyuu, I was totally oblivious to the obvious once again. Capn' Obvious to the rescue!

If you use another format, you just have to edit the .cal3d or .spr file of the model to reflect this.
