skin browser?

[markbond]

Just downloaded DCS max to allow me to change skins. Was just wondering if there was an easy was to browse the skins to see what they look like before selecting them? Are the seperate graphics saved in a folder somewhere?

 

Thanks

Afraid not. If you installed the skins separately through ModMan (for user created skins) you might have illustrative pictures in modman. Otherwise you can see the skins through selecting them in the mission editor and running the mission that way.

 

To see the skins as they look in the game requires that the game engine be run so that the model can be seen with the skin wrapped onto it. This requires that dcs.exe be started, which means a mission must be started. If you want to keep books on how they look I guess you could go through them with missions made yourself in the mission editor (or through selecting them in DcsMAX) and make a couple screenshots.
