TXT or tex files?
i hope this is the correct answer

Well not really, The psd, files that show up the templates are all good, And I do have DDS, file plugin in my photoshop. So i can turn a psd file into a dds file but if I stick that into the texture folder will it show up?

I see in the texture folder it has file names which is the base and the turrett but they are all tex, files.. So not sure if the new dds file that i make for the new skin will show up?

I suppose the only way is to try.

Ok. here is the othe question, say it does work like that, were do I pick the skin in game? or will it show up on my tank automaticly ?

Cheers guys

Gonna get this game happening even if it kills me.
