I have tried at least 6 different methods on getting my skins ingame, and none of them have worked for me. Suggestions are welcome.
Oh joy, I'm a fodder scooper.

Just read the topic on the link above, and it'll all be clear to you.

Well maybe you could be a little more specific then "i cant get skins in game". Then we can figure out the problem.

Is there something you dont understand about the tutorial? Or did you do everything it said and it didn't work?
Like Syth said, be more specific and I'm sure we can solve the problem

This is the tutorial i use:
1. Create a new map.
2. Copy the race you want to edit (example: republic = rep) into the sides folder of the new map.
3. Now Copy the “Common” folder from within the mod-tool “assets/sides” directory and place it in the sides folder of your new map.
4. Now go to assets/shell and copy all of the folders in it, but not the .req, then paste it in the _Build/shell folder in the new map you created.
5. Now, go into common > script > newmapname and open the LUA file named newmapnamec_con.lua (for me that was BS1c_con.lua ).
6. Now if you look down the LUA file you will see ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl", change this to ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\rep.lvl.
7. then copy 2 .bat files in the side you got, these are: clean.bat and munge.bat , these can be aquired from the _BUILD > Sides > ALL in the newmap you created, then copy the 2 .bat files into the side in the mod tools you are modifying.
8. Edit the texture.
9. Finally we munge the new map (see Jedi Creation doc for more info) we select the new race in the drop down menu on the left, and select the race you edited (mine was rep) you also have to tick the "common" check box, then munge!
P.S: You can get the race from the assets > sides folder !
P. P.S: The textures are in the msh of your copied side folder.
On another note, to get the skins working in all maps, not just the map you made, you simply need to follow my tutorial, then go in data_ABC\_LVL_PC\SIDE and copy the 2 .lvl files (for me these were rep.lvl and repshell.lvl) into the side of your SWBF II game.

The only problem with that is that the side folder will be HUGE in the map's folder in Addon. But I have to admit, I do the same thing, and it works perfectly.

I'll try that, since I had to redownload the mod tools to get the assets/sides/common folder.
