Viewing the Skin Problem

When I go to view my custom skin it is invisible and all you see is parts of the unit like the robe and the sword. The entire body part that I edited is invisible. I tried playing the map but then it just reverts back to the normal units skin. Can you please help?:(

Huh? Could you post a screenshot of it?

this is the problem in this pic if it doesnt show up tell me

Ah that's easy. Did you use wich program to edit and wich one to convert the skin? That's clearly a no alpha-channel problem.

i used techmpq, but i thought it might be that so i dled winmpq,but that comes up with this error saying it needs some VB40031.DLL file or something like that

Humm I mean to convert from BLP to TGA and such.

humm looks like a filter problem. with all team color

maybe the skin cant fit the model, so it doesnt show the skin.

i found this out by trying a grom skin on a BM because i dont know the string...

PS. what is the string for grom hell scream???? i tryied

textures\hellscream.blp

I used the wc3 image extractor 2 from your site. I changed it to a .blp from a .tga but that didnt work so I tried changing it to .blp.blp because I was readng a tutorial that said it should look like this and he had .blp.blp in the name so I tired that and it still doesnt work please help. If you cant there will be no point in skinning for me except to keep from getting bored.

Could you send it to this email [email protected] so I can take a look at it (don't be afraid, I won't rob you skin or anything)?

It is just a skin I downloaded from here and updated and changed some. I was gonna give credit to those who gave me the ideas. When I changed it I didnt change anything out of the bounds of the skin so it should work.

Both you guys are having the same problem. I've put some possible solutions there.

Hey KDEwolf that link links back to this post. So can you change it to go to the other post.

Sorry here's the right link. http://www.wc3campaigns.com/forums/s...threadid=20040

:ggani: Hey I found out what the problem was. It was the picture editor I was using for some reason it kept on making the files corupt or something like that.
