Title: Saving default skin
Post by: Larry on June 20, 2018, 07:50:46 PM

I've trying going in game and in the skin viewer to save the default skin but nothing is saved. I go to the skins folder and a new folder for that skin is there but it is empty. Did something change since AHII or am I doing something wrong?

Same process as always, so...

Launch the game in DX9. For some reason the folder is empty with Dx11.

Yes, to save the default skin, you have to launch the DX9 version of the game.

The skin viewer got migrated to DX11 a couple of patches ago.

By the way, if you have a new account and would like to get all your old skins back, let me know.  Right now they are all 'orphans' available for anyone to adopt.

Speaking of that, is there a way to see the orphans while I have one under adoption?   I like doing research for my next skin adoption idea while working on one, but once a skin is adopted the list becomes hidden.

Larry, I think I caught all your old skins and got them signed back to you.  When you log into the skin admin page, it should show them now.

That did the job. Thank you.
