You can try Gimp..it's a free paint program, just google it.

It's hard to explain how to do skins..so just go here Simmers Paintshop

..and search the Skins Forums here for help. There was some old step to step message posted a while back.

Hammer, question regarding the Lancaster skin by Kev367th. The download is a .res file, which I have no problem with that. I figured you might've just had the actual skin placed into the terrain and all I would have to do is enter the hangar, select the skin, and press, "Save Default Skin". That's exactly what I tried, however when I attempted to enter offline mode the terrain would not load.

So perhaps you uploaded the wrong file or re-punctuated the extension? Is it possible to update that download or can you just send me the file via email? Thanks in advance.

That link is to HTC's skin downloads. That's how they download.

Save Default Skin saves the default as .bmp that you can use to make a template if you're making skins. It won't save other skins.

Regards,
