Jimmytime Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 I've found a skin tutorial By Paul (Snoopy) Kempton1 Virtual Fighter Wing25th, but I'm having trouble with The Compressonator program. If I try to open a converted bmp file it has an error "There was a problem sending the command to the program." Within the progam it doesn't do anything to the file, won't open so I can't create MIPS or save the file as a DDS. Any other suggestions or instructions for creating skins?

CHSubZero Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Use Paint.NET (freeware) for editing skins and saving in DDS... I have no problems with it. 1 Aviation Livery - Explore Military Aircraft Liveries My Mods: DCS User Files
