Thanks for the positive comments ;)

To use a skin, it seems necessary that it be built into the map itself.  When you make a map, you'll have a folder like this:

AH Editor/terrains/yourmap

Create a sub-folder AH Editor/terrains/yourmap/texsrc and put the .bmp files for the skin in the new texsrc sub-folder.  Get the skin files from the link in my post above.  Then open the map in the editor and select File/Build.  This incorporates the skin into the yourmap.res file so it's there when you use that map.

It doesn't appear that you can just reskin planes yourself on existing maps, and have them only visible to you.  The only way I know is the above, which makes the skins visible to all players.  I guess this is a cheat control, so you can't make the nme planes all day-glo orange or whatever, so you can see them easier.

Hello Bullethead!!

At one point you said that you need encouragement!!!??
I think you're way beyond that, the skin you made is very beautiful and doesn't look like you're a begginer. However all thumbs up!!!

Myself I'm not even a beginner and just opened the editor today... and I'm trouble, cannot figure things out... I think I am the one that would need encouragement LOL :) .

Keep it up!!!
