Hey turkana !
Welcome to the forums 

I can't see details, but seems to be nice work, maybe you want to share your modifications ?!

btw., you can attach future screenshots here in the forum.

Greetinx.

Nice, and it gave me an idea: why swat (civillian team) can't help fighting aliens on their turn? It would be much easier to play, don't you think?

Use search before you want to write your «best and never thinking about» ideas, there was thousand of proposals like that one.

I suppose that it is not the correct place for make this question, but i don't know where is, so here it is:

How can i add more skins for the human team in campaign or multiplayer? The game have 4 skins (urban, jungle, desert and arctic) and 2 multiplayer (yellow and cccp) but i want to add 4 more (mountain, forest, savanna and elite). I have changed the cl_team.c and cl_team.h files in src\client directory but there is no changes displayed in game.

(Changes in red)
cl_team.c
{      
   switch(id) {   
   case 0:   
      return _("Urban");
   case 1:   
      return _("Jungle");

      return _("Desert");
   case 3:

   case 7:   
      return _("Elite");
   case 8:   
      return _("Yellow");
   case 9:   
      return _("CCCP");
   }   
   Com_Error(ERR_DROP, "CL_GetTeamSkinName: Unknown skin id %i - max is %i", id, NUM_TEAMSKINS - 1);   
}      
...

   /* create singleplayer skins */         
   if (MN_GetOption(OPTION_SINGLEPLAYER_SKINS) == NULL) {         
      menuOption_t *skins = NULL;

Anybody could help me, please?

while we are here, what about moving this content (skin definition) into a script? is there any problem with it? i mean problem with MP game or thing like that.

Anyway i think we an some changes for 2.4, but not for 2.3 (i say it cause the code you show is a little old).

[bayo]

then i think i will work on that this weekend, i dont think it is a big task

[bayo]

I add ./base/ufos/skins.ufo on the trunk. You  easily can add your skins here. Not sure it will stay like that, but i dont think too much thing will change.

[Sersanara]

when and where can i take this file? I'm very interesting. Do i have to download the beta 2.4 version or can i apply in 2.3?

[H-Hour]

You would need to download the "dev 2.4", what's called the "trunk", and compile it yourself. Instructions for getting and compiling the source can be found in the wiki.

Hi, i just commit another patch to allow to add your own custom skin more easily.

Can you send your custom skin somewhere? i can create to you a pk3 file with a
very small script. Then i can see if it work well or not with a real content.

I hope it will became very easy to use and to share.

Hi:

I uploaded the skins in filefront:

http://www.filefront.com/17298100/soldiers-by-Turkana.rar/

I only made this skins for female/male, femalelight/malelight and femalelightadv/malelightadv. But i also modified the md2 files of femalepower/malepower for this 9 skins. I use the femalelightadv/malelightadv like femalemedium/malemedium too, because on campaign i cannot use femalelightadv/malelightadv. Sorry for not include medium armors (i don't like they). Every md2 file have 9 skins modified by strawberryperl. The skins are urban(default), jungle, desert, arctic, mountain, forest, savanna, tundra, elite(swat).

I also added more heads for female. 1c 1d and 5a 5b. if you want to use them you have to edit the team_humans.ufo

Thanks a lot to share this content. It is a derivative work from our "GPL2 or later" content, then we can reuse it on the game without problem under "GPL2 or later". If there is any problem with it, feel free to reply. I ask mattn to check your content.

I use your Elite skin to create a custom actor skin pk3 file for multiplayer. But we only can use it with the 2.4-dev version. And unfortunatly 2.4-dev use more armours and models, then some skin are missing, and some UV map looks wrong. Anyway here the example:
http://mattn.ninex.info/files/eliteskin_turkana.pk3
A pk3 is a zip file, u can move it on the "base" directory. Creating a new actor skin only need some skins and a small script (no need model edition). Then it is very easy to create more skin like that.

Then if you want to create more actor skins, or update the content, it is welcome. I hope we can soon download the 2.4-dev version for Windows.
Here more documentation http://ufoai.ninex.info/wiki/index.php/UFO-Scripts/skins.ufo

Hello, there is no problem with that. Feel free to use this skins as you want. Is an honour for me that all or some of my skins appears in 2.4 dev or any other version. I'll wait the 2.4 windows version with impatience.
