Help with implementing custom spieces (new skins) in Single player character creation

[Antonis]

Hello,

this is my first topic here, so I am sorry if I did a mistake.

As I mention in the title, I need some help with adding custom skins to Single player character creation.

 

So, I downloaded some files(specifically the Chagrian spieces, a Ventress and a KIt Fisto) and I want to include them is SP Character Creation. The Ventress pack installs just fine by default. But I have problems with the other two. All the necessary fiels are there, in the models folder. .skin files, tga and jpeg, icons and a playerchoice(made by me, just the default *white entry). Even added the MENU entry, although it is optional. Am I missing something here?

 

Any help offered will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

Antonis

 

EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention that the models don't work when 'called' with the console code for playermodel skins,too.

See the following tread for some ideas how it works in SP Character Selection menu.

It seems the models don't include NPC files if they don't work when you use the playermodel command. See https://jkhub.org/tutorials/article/146-the-basics-of-npc-files/ how to add NPC support

Cool. That is a simple way to do it. If a model has multiple skin versions, you can do the same for each version, just increment the number of file names (a2, a3, etc.).

I tried it, works equally good. Thanks, man, I really appreciate it.
