k describe in detail the steps you did

[bleek]

I'm not really sure but you may need to open the model_default.skin with notepad. When you do...every time you see the name of the skin...change it to what you want yours to be called. Then use Pakscape or something and make it into a pk3. This will make it your own skin....I dunno how to replace current ones.

k

1. i downloaded a file called padme.zip

2. in this file there was the file pad.pk3

3. i extracted the file pad.pk3 and only cachnged some *.jpg files in padme/models/players/padme

i didn change the name or something else

4.then i made the "padme" directory with winzip (normal compress)

back to padme.pk3 and copyed it to C:\Games\Jedi Outcast\GameData\base

5. i start the game and try to use the skin but there is no icon of it

padme/models/players/padme... ???

 

if you open that pk3 in winzip is there some

stuff in that kind of folder ???

 

if there are then tree is wrong

 

there can't be anything before that models...

( models/players/padme... )

plus,

did the one you donwloaded work? before you changed it?

also the icon that shows up in the player list is called

icon_default.jpg

make sure after you changed it that the name remains the same.

and finally pak all those files into a new pk3, don't add the ones you changed back to the original, it won't replace it, rather it will save it as a different file. Just put the original padme.pk3 in a temp or old folder, and put your newly paked one in the base folder and see if it works.

 

oh and if you are going to use your version publicly in any way please ask the author for permission.

hope this helps
