I messed up Skins in ODS

Post by Tomcat » 2002-09-28 06:42:00

When I installed ODS today I left a skin installed that I was using in the Nevada Theater. It was a 3 tone brown agressor skin. Now my F-16 in all ODS missions is a Hill aircraft with a 3 tone brown body. I have tried using the skin editor to uninstall and reinstall the F-16 skin but the ODS just keeps the screwed up skin as my a/c for all missions. Is there an easy fix or has the skin become curruped at installation and do I now need to uninstal ODS?

Help

There should be a program called TexInstaller in some folder of ODS. I used it, and I managed to change my F-16 skins with this method:

1. Place the skin which you want to replace to the same folder with TexInstaller. The skin-file must be *.bmp and named with number, which is the number of the skin which you want to replace.

2. Start TexInstaller.

I'm not sure about this method, but it worked in my F4.

I've had problems while installing 10.bmp with that tool, and told it to the Baldeagle.

Not that i used a different skin, but i noticed the 10.bmp hadn't been imported.

Had to use F4Skin2 (Julian Onions' can do it too) to manually apply that 10.bmp.

Hi SHINOBI,

Well, different skin editors are one way to change those skins.
It's weird that your TexInstaller didn't work.
