I can't seem to get the icons/skins I downloaded to work

I'm still getting around using the World Editor, but I can't seem to get the icons/skins I'm downloading to work. The main problem is that the pathing isn't working. I'm using the pathing the maker of the file wrote, but it says the pathing is incorrect. I go into the import manager, click on "import file" under file, I type in (or paste) the pathing under "File Name", says pathing is incorrect. I have these icons placed on the desktop, does that matter?

You have to import the files first before you select the custom path. When it's imported you can see the file, click it and check the "Use Custom Path" box. Now you paste the path you copied in the field that just became white.

Yeah, find the files and simply click them, no need to type anything in. Then, in the import manager, double click the file, check the 'use custom path box', and change the path. BTN icons use ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons, and DSBTN uses ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled for paths.

As for skins, simply set the path to the unit the skin applies to. If the path isn't listed in the author's post, find the unit it applies to in the object editor, click model file, and it will show you the required path.

Live long and make maps.
