How to port skin?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have a CVPI skin that I like very much. I want to be able to use it on my Dodge Charger, which is in the "police2" slot. Since the CVPI and the Charger are not the same shape, how would I do this? I am pretty sure it involves making a new skin for the charger, and adding in the decals and stuff, but I am not 100% sure if that is the best way.

Thanks.

You could try pasting the design onto the dodge charger template and then resize and rotate it.

Although it's likely it won't fit, you'd have to select and cut each part of the design and then paste it onto the charger. Or even remake the entire thing.

Okay,

I found a template for the Charger, and I have the CVPI skin. I will try to play around with it in Photoshop.

---------UPDATE----------

It did not go so well. There does not appear to be an easy way of doing this.

Here is the skin and the template by the way:

There is a pack of black and white skins on GPM. Get that, pick the base, and then copy text.

I can't seem to find the pack you are talking about, they only seem to have 2 different pre-marked up Charger skins. Do you have a link? Thanks for the help though.

It worked great! I ended up having to recreate the skin in Photoshop, and by the time I was done making it, it came out looking the way I like it, but not really like the original. I will upload the skin so others can use it. It looks gorgeous!

Finishing your first skin is a great feeling of achievement. Awaiting for the communities response keeps you on the edge of your seat, it effectively decides whether or not you should continue creating textures or not.

Hope it goes well, I look forward to seeing it.

You are completely right, it feels great to have made something, and I look forward to seeing what people think.
