Hello, I'm looking at creating a few custom skins for IGN ships and was wondering is there an easier way to make a skin than the way that I'm currently using. At the moment I'm using the original DDS texture files and editing them in Photoshop via the nvidia DDS plugin. Is there a program were I can import the DDS file and have a live preview of the ship rather than opening and closing the game every time I want to test the skin? Thanks

Hi guys, Later on in the week i'll be posting the photoshop files of the ship textures so you can easily create your own skins as I will have cut it out into layers of the areas on the texture which you can change/paint etc to make a cool skin for your ship. You will need the nvidia DDS plugin for photoshop to enable you to save it as DDS so you can use it in game. For now i've just done the Fuso 1919 model just to show you what it will look like! http://rg.to/file/9f308e7d25a7d33e6a0c60939c3d9851/JSB020_Fuso_1919_a.psd.html I'll be doing to IGN BB line first however if you want a specific ship doing before i get to it send me a pm and when i get some time ill do it first!

never mind totaly confused myself there I had the newer hull on!!! lol

Isizuchi and Kongo have the same portrait in the tech tree. If you compare the to the actual model Kongo's is wrong.

wasn't sure if it would crash the game Thanks!
