Howdy everyone.
Does anybody know how to put custom skins in custommaps?
I have this little black beauty and want to use it in my map:

NAVY replaced with this one:

In bf42 it was easy but not so in bf2.
I tried to add this line to my init.con:
run /levels/my_mapname/skins/USTHE_UH60_c.dds
But no success.

Any ideas? :confused:

Cheers,

Place a blackhawk in the editor and then replace that blackhawks code with yours.

What code? Its only the skin.
It was so easy in the old engine..
textureManager.alternativePath mods/mymod/archives/bf1942/levels/mymap/skins

This doesnt work.
Has anyone got a link to the "official" editor forums?
