Skins

Im making a RPG map and I am new to skinning so if someone can tell me what it is about and what it does i'd really appreciate it.

skinning is when u can change stuff in a unit. u have to have warcraft 3 viewer, and adobe photoshop or paintshop pro (photo is better)

ok i found that out but how do i use it because it sounds helpful im kinda new at map makin so please tell me

Find the unit's skin that you want to change in WinMPQ. Extract it. Use either the Warcraft 3 Viewr or any other file converter to change the .blp file to a .bmp file. Open it with paintshop pro or photoshop, and skin away

thanx for clearing it up i sux at paint and photoshop n stuff but a think i might give this ago and i just want to ask can anyone make me a couple of spaceship and space looking things for my rpg?

i cant edit my post so im posting again (BIG SORRY!!!!) where do you extract the files?

if you need hi-tech skins and stuff go to my site. http://www.samods.com/~wcwarehouse Open up some blps it will help you as a skinner to see how it's done.

You can also check the skin and model galleries. they have some space things.
