Hi just me again.....

Im trying now to paint my own skins using GIMP. can anyone tellme why i don't have any skins in my LFS/DATA/SKINS folder???? im very confused. Thanks!

Hi, I'm pretty the lfs/data/skins is empty at first. When you finally make a skin, you should save it in data/skins. It'll be converted by LFS into a .dds file which will show up in the game...

This should help you out a bit:

Try the CMX Viewer as well:

The default skins can be found in .jpg format in one of the Viewer's folders.

Good luck with skinning
