Ok so I've never made a skin before today, but I got the urge to try. So I dl'd the UH-1 template and got to work.
Now I have my uh1(filename).dds and the uh1tail dds. I've edited (to the best of my knowledge) the description.lua to reflect my file names but when I open the game and select my skin I get the orange missing texture skin...
Now I've seen skins where you can just drop the folder in the Liveries/UH-1 and be done and then I've seen ones where you have to edit Textures/UH-1.
I guess my question is, how can I make my skin a straight drop in to the Liveries folder... any help is appreciated.
