: Skins? I understand that a lot of people out there grasp the concept. After all, there are a slew of skin patches available for download. However, I just don't know where to begin. Lookit it this way... if it's so easy to do, then it should be real easy to make a tutorial for it, hey? ;o)

I'll work on it - I'm not a skinner myself - BUT if you look at Darkjedi.com you will find a document on manually texturing 3do's. I THINK this is also used for skins, as all a skin is are textures on a 3do. So, you will have to get a program that will let you view textured 3do's (does one exist specifically? I don't know - but JED does it nowadays) and then work through the document. I hope it helps.

Just to give you a head's up - you will be modifying a text file (that's all a 3do is) to assign and align textures to faces on the model - it's a bit complicated I've heard, but as you said, a lot of people out there do it, so it can't be too hard -- also I think there is a faq at the Skinners site --- on their sidebar. To access skinners, go to my host, jedinights.com, and under hosted sites, skinners will be one of them.

Good luck.

Brian
