I'm not offended, AK, but as Animalover said, coding is NOT easy, especially for animals. If it was, Penguinman and Gibbon Fanatic wouldn't have started this site. If you have the gift of grasping it, good for YOU! I envy you - I really DO! Me, I have the gift of skinning quite well, but absolutely NO gift for coding. None AT ALL! It's a rare person who can sucessfully do both. Since you apparently have that gift - treasure it. |

Okay, the whiteness is a problem with the coding, not the skins. I think it has to do with the name of the .dds files and what they are called in your .nif files. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. I don't know how I do it, I just do. |

Well, if you're talking about the icon being white, or the item being white when placed, that's most likely with the ai or zoopedia files. Try checking those to make sure the NAMES are correct. They have to match the name of your file, not necessarily what's in the nif, because remember, the names inside the nif may be longer or shorter than the actual file name. |

@ WLBH, i dont mind if you ask me to make you some skins, but i might not be able to make good reptiles unless they are the exact same colour as the croc or komodo, so i have something to copy the scales off of. @ bobosmonkey, alpha koala has offered to help, but maybe we could work together on some future projects |

No, Radar, MOST re-color-ers do not 'copy' fur. We re-color (generally pixel by pixel) to make the variations needs for true shading and realistic looking skins. I believe she meant she needed the texture to see how to do it. Penguinman and I both use textures in our PSP program to simulate 'real' fur/skin. |

im a he, & i acctually do sometimes copy the skins of animals sometimes, coz i only have paint & i dont have much time to do pixle by pixle, although i usually like to do a entire skin by my self (like i did with lizard man & the bunyip) if there is an animal with the same colour & patern i might copy & paste parts off of it (like with the skunk ape) |

No offense to csleesburg, but you DO seem to call people girls or ladies or "she" and are often mistaken. |

I really DO apologize for that! I think it's kind of like always calling dogs 'boy' and ships 'she'. Just a habit. I'm pre-apologizing for all my future mistakes! :lol: |
