Does anyone here by chance know how to get asylum skins into eden editor?

I tried doing that, the sqm file that is inside of the mission file doesnt load the skins.

Like I open it up and it only opens the map data. Doesnt load skins or anything like that.

Gonna assume they just used asylums mission file. I feel like that could be reletively easy as I was even able to do it but never hooked the server up to a database. But I need to get a custom texture into eden editor which i dont see how.

Go to your Arma 3 profiles folder > YourProfileName > missions > create a folder "Asylum.Altis" and put Asylum's mission.sqm in there. Also, make sure to copy the skins you wanna load and throw them into the same folder (where you put mission.sqm in).

Go to Eden Editor and load "Asylum.Altis".

You know what to do from that point forward, right, @Boomerman?

Depends on what skin you need the only reason your not getting skins is because you need to add the skin to the vehicle or unit. If you want any on a certain vehicle msg me and I'll gladly give you the line of code you need in init box on the entity.

I got it all figured out, Had to do some simple lines of code in the init screen with a pathing to the folder with the skins.

_this setObjectTextureGlobal [1,"images\skin_layer_2.jpg"]; (if applicable)

_this setObjectTextureGlobal [2,"images\skin_layer_3.jpg"]; (if applicable)

Exactly.

Yeah, I figured it out and didnt do the global part as im only using it on a local instance with myself. Even though there is probably no harm in having it. Also only did this instead of _this.
