friendly-fire's gore ultimate soldier skin placement mini tutorial ,etc ;

a way to see any new skins from wherever is here:


(this is old info to many gore players)
get a new skin(the picture file that the game uses to display what stuff looks
like)
if one has a new assassin skin,then go to c:\program
files\gore\models\players\assassin.
(each of the gore player models will be listed in the players folder.)
there is a file for his head called assassin_head.dmt.
this is basically a bitmap image file.
i use a free photo viewer program called xnview to see the .dmt files.
it works also to simply rename the assassin_head.dmt, to assassin_head.bmp.
skins look weird.it is the 2d colors that the game puts on the 3d model of
assassin.it kind of wraps around the 3d player model like the skin on a
grapefruit. for gore,the skins look a couple of shades too dark,and perhaps too
color saturated,however,when the game uses them they will look fine.so,any new
skins made,should be made to look darker than normal. otherwise you will hve
overly bright,bland skins.make a folder to save a copy of your stock skins.
it doesnt matter too much,since only you can see these new skin files.your
character,and all similar characters will now look the new way to anyone playing
gore on your computer,but other players elsewhere will see the same stock skins
when they look at you from their computer.
after you put the new skin in the assassin main folder,it must be the exact same
name the stock skin had,or the game will not see it. for assassin;
assassin_head.dmt for his head.assassin_body.dmt for his body.
if a skin for a body or whatever is named hjvidfhgidv.bmp, and was obtained from a
folder called assassin heads,
then simply rename hjvidfhgidv.bmp to assassin_head.dmt.
a dozen different skins for the same target file all have to have a different name
to be in the same folder.
an organized person might have assassin_head1.dmt,assassin_head2.dmt,or whatever.
i personally prefer to have the skins as a bitmap .bmp file so they are easier to
see what i want to pick.
there are a light skin color version,and a dark,for many custom skins you will
see.
i got the idea a while back from a different game.
skins can be made using photoshop,the gimp, corel ,etc. gimp is free.

so,anyway,you now have your new skins in their proper player folder.
start gore demo or full,
choose a player,or the observe eye thing.
to see your work; hit escape key,click where the advanced server settings are,
enable remote administration.
i assign a different password for developer password, and admin password.
start a lan game off the internet,if you just want to see if a new skin is
suitable.or go play as usual.
to see a skin on a different player,hit the ` tilde key, just above the left side
tab key.this is the game console.
type in login developer , or login and the password you chose. be sure to have
the space after the word login.
the game will say login successful,hopefully.
now type addbot "assassin" exactly that way. must have the space,and the quotes.
hit the tab key.there should be 2 players now.you and the bot.if using observe
mode,you can fly over to wherever the bot spawned,and see if the skin you made,or
found ,is suitable.hit the f6 key and the game will make a screenshot,
called gore1.bmp and put it in your c:\program files\gore folder.you can go see if
it is there after you close the game.
the gore1.bmp file may be too dark to see good.i open them in xnview and brighten
them and save as a .jpg file.
i believe that if you leave your bitmap screen captures in the c:\program
files\gore folder,then a new game will cause
any old screenshots to be overwritten.
the above general procedure, will work with any player skins.
alternately, if one were satisfied with their game skins,they could put them into
a self extracting zip file to have them install kind of automatically. i prefer
one at a time.
having different skins is somewhat moot in reality,since a good gore player will
be getting armor and your new game skin should be covered up with green or red mob
or umc armor.unless you get or make new armor skins to change their color also.
weapons skins, player skins,new maps. gore is an awesome game to modify,though
there is some resistance to mods of any kind in some the gore ultimate soldier
community. if someone wanted to think it is sacrilege for me to upgrade the
carburetor on my engine,then that is their problem.
i can waste time and fuel if i wish.personalizing things should not to be
shunned.skin mods are common in other games.if some mod were to disturb gameplay
in some bad way,then it should be avoided by anyone with integrity.
game skins on your pc should have no adverse affect on any other gamer,as they are
only seen on your pc by you.
you can change the skins back to stock by restoring your backup stock skin where
it was.i usually have a backup of my stock files,and a backup of new files.
in reality,i have not been playing much, but with the decision of the gore founder
to provide a free download of the game in early 2007, there may soon be hundreds
of servers to play gore on all around the world.the game works on older computers
and even on dial up connections acceptably. noobs love new maps and skins, just
like i did. i made these skins my hackwork way to see if i could,and got carried
away. some people make picture puzzles,or fill out crossword puzzles .if one other
person gets a kick out of them,then my efforts,for what they are worth, were not
completely in vain.

here is the syntax, or the way the stock models are named.
each model must be named exactly these ways,or a player will show up with blank
white body color.;

assassin_head.dmt
assassin_body.dmt

bartender_head.dmt
bartender_body.dmt

hplayer_head.dmt
hplayer_body.dmt

lplayer_head.dmt
lplayer_body.dmt

mplayer_head.dmt
mplayer_body.dmt

player_head.dmt
player_body.dmt

scout_head.dmt
scout_body.dmt

umc_vip_beret.dmt
umc_vip_body.dmt
umc_vip_head.dmt

one can copy and paste these names during the mod skin rename process that is done
to put a changed skin where a stock one was. like i said,first i would put the
stock skin in a different folder, or rename it mildly. there are other player
names,but these are most of the ones i made mods for.
someone had made a mod to allow the umc-vip and the other vip to be used any
time,so that is why skins were made for him.
also,many of the parts and skins are interchangeable with other player models.

one may wonder why i have made such an effort to share these.
i can either delete all this frivolous work,or try to share it freely with the
small number of folks that still play this game,and like to tinker with stuff.i
realize many of these skins are lame,and many are unfinished.many are an older
version that i did not delete,as i was trying to figure out how to do these 3d
model skins,using 2d tools.the tepid and sometimes negative response of some of
the people on the game forum to this work means it is not worth the effort to
package or sort these better.
here is a giant pile.my server,my work,my rules.i will check to see no copyrited
work is here.if some stock skins are here,they are there for template purposes,and
should be labeled as stock skins.i paid for the game,and aint trying to resell
anything.perhaps i could say i put my backup skin digital copy here for the stock
skin.if needed whatever must be removed will be.my email address is here.as i
said,the game may make a big comeback soon.imagine;a stock skin gore ultimate
soldier action figure set at the toy stores and department stores.the game is
unique among all i have played.
