Skin Importing Issue

[WNxCryptic]

I'm working with WE 1.20c and WE Helper (no idea on the version).

The Problem: Importing models goes fine, renaming the custom field is also fine, but the models never appear correctly (or even differently) in game.

For instance: I imported the Fear Giant (http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/852/) and renamed its custom field to:

Textures\MountainGiant.blp

When I get in game, the mountain giant is nearly completely black...so...maybe that's a bad skin?

Moving on!

I imported the Dark Castle (http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/597/) and renamed its custom field to:

Human\TownHall\TownHallCastleKeep.blp

And the town hall model is STILL the exact same, both in game and in WE (Yes, I've closed my map and reopened it).

Any idea why? Have I just got two retarted skins or am I failing to do something properly on my own end?

What possessed you to put a skin importing issue in the modeling section?

Moved.

(I couldn't find the skinning forums, sorry mate)

Your alpha channels are messed up, try opening a new image and copying the skin into that and resave and convert, and then try to import it.
