Okai.
You made a SKIN or a MODEL?
A model, won't replace it. A skin will.

Try read the 'How to make multiple models, use the same skin' Tutorial.

 

[DorgenFlare]

Well, I Explain Bad...

-I Create A Model Editing Paladin
-I Edit Paladin Skin To Use It In My Model
-I Try To Use That Skin
-But That Skin Owerwrites Paladin Skin
-And My Model Only Reads The Path Of That Skin

-How Can I Use Other Path For That Skin On My Model?

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Ohh!
Change the skin path on your model to 'Sith' or such.

But i recommend you to use in-game-textures.

Also, try not to use capitalized Letters In The Start Of Each Word. It Is Quite Annoying To Look At.

 

[DorgenFlare]

But... How Can I Change The Path?

 

[KalamMekhar]

I believe that all you have to do is import the model under a name that you want, for example replace the "paladin" part of the plaldin model name with sith, then do the same thing for the skin.

Argh. Please stop using capitals all the time. Only at the start of every sentence, not every word.

Open the model (in .mdl) in notepad and scroll down to "Units\Human\Paladin\Paladin.blp" (or whatever the current path is) and change it to "NewPaladin.blp" (or something of the sort). Change the path to that in the Import Manager in the World Editor.

i need to see that by myself!!!!! 11111
EDIT: NOPE, ALL THE CAPS ARE NOW NORMAL, THERE ARE NO CAPS LEFT AT ALL!1111
EDIT: AND NOW MY EDIT ISN'T CHANGED WEIRD!111
anyhoo, ontopic again ^^
the reason that all the paladins change is that you override a texture that they all use.
Do as hawkwing said and i'll be just fine ;D

 

[LiOneSS]

If you write the whole post without any lowercaps letters it changes into that crap

 

[DorgenFlare]

Er... Well I Write With Capitals At The Start Of All The Words, But Not All.

I Don't Not Why, But I Can't Change That, That's How I Write And I Do It In The Real World Not Only Here...

Only A Correction, Obi-Wan Is A JEDI Not A SITH...

Is your question answered? Hawkwing gave you the right answer, but it doesn't look like you absorbed it.

If you have an MDX file for the Obi-Wan that you are importing, there is a pretty easy way to change which texture path it uses. Open it in this program and just type in a different path where it currently lists the Paladin's texture. The new path can be just about whatever you want, like ObiWan.blp. Just be sure to import your texture to whatever path you type there.
