Hello, I hope Im posting this in the right place... I came here through a link I ran across while trying to find a tut on doing a model reskin. What Im trying to do, is change the symbols on the front of the resupply lockers. Is this possible? What would I need? Thanks in advance for any info you guys can provide.

Im assuming I will have to clone the model and rename it or something if i want this to show up in my map?

Wait, this will be harder than I thought.

You have to decompile the model. And then to recompile it with the right texture name.

I currently have much time to describe it, I'm sorry.

Skip the Hex part and use this updated version:
