[XXunknownsniperXX951]

worked perfectly but for some reason every time i do this white lines go through the camo

[v0HaVoK0v]

@XXunknownsniperXX951 I'm guessing you edited a skin, or specular not a camo?

[XXunknownsniperXX951]

@v0HaVoK0v I actually made sure it was the same thing you did D:

[DANNYonPCin720p]

For legal gamers (with steam)

C> Program files > Steam > Steamapps > Common > Game name (MW2/Mw3) > MAIN > IW_06 or IW_07 (depends wich game you are modding)

Thumbs up so everyone can see this :)

[DANNYonPCin720p]

For everyone who wants to import thier work in MW3,

You need to take the IW06 folder

[11NikoBellic]

it say when i start it: ERROR LOADING IMAGE: weapon_camo_desert, i did everything okay!

[PureDesignsAU]

[NUTTASBOY]

[ManiacModz]

@NUTTASBOY no u can use paint.NET

[v0HaVoK0v]

@NUTTASBOY Yes, you can use paint.NET but I'd highly recommend photoshop.

[NUTTASBOY]

[xSwizyz]

[Thatonefuckingguy]

To anyone that this sint working for Make sure your following the steps right, and if your gonna do a menu preview make sure its saved in DXT5. But Weapon camos are saved in DXT1 No Alpha.

[widomz]

[zacharyc1996]

lol up how do i put the plugin onto photoshop??

[MisterEclipse96]

Someone answer me quick, what is the server list thing about when he goes into mw2?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MisterEclipse96 Its alteriwnet

[MisterEclipse96]

@v0HaVoK0v Isn't that the free version of MW2?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MisterEclipse96 Yes, but its not like a smaller version or anything, I prefer it with the updates they day, and great amount of servers on it, you should get it :)

[MisterEclipse96]

@v0HaVoK0v Can you send me a pm with a link on a good tutorial on how to download it?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MisterEclipse96 Ok

[Thatonefuckingguy]

@v0HaVoK0v Dude im entered in the ccccc and everything was working fine i made 2 camos and menu preview, today im getting and error saying cant load weapon_menu_desert or how ever it goes. Please help

[v0HaVoK0v]

@Thatonefuckingguy You either made it wrong, or the file has gone corrupt, sometimes they do go corrupt, if you still have the dds file, the just re-convert it and the rest over again.

[Thatonefuckingguy]

@v0HaVoK0v i did that i even re downloaded all the tools again.

[Thatonefuckingguy]

@v0HaVoK0v nvm i got it

[CoDxBOps]

is this visible to everyone in the lobby?

[xGroWzEe]

it says couldnt load weapon_cheytac_new_col

[xXFriendlycreeperXx]

dude the camo only displays on the gun for me, but not on the menu.

[xKnusperflocken]

@xXFriendlycreeperXx because the menu file isnt the same as the ingame display.

[anssaful]

[3ch0er]

[3ch0er]

[GozieX]

would this work for ps3?

[ImmaR4peYoAszz]

does it work for mw3?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@ImmaR4peYoAszz yes

[ImmaR4peYoAszz]

@v0HaVoK0v bro please can you make a vid to show how on mw3 please

[ImmaR4peYoAszz]

@v0HaVoK0v make a tut on mw3

[v0HaVoK0v]

@ImmaR4peYoAszz I have to buy it first, but still this tut would almost be the exact same, except with different files, but I will make when I get it.

[ImmaR4peYoAszz]

@v0HaVoK0v kk mail me when you done the vid thanks dude

[MrOromdubel]

Can I also use DXT-1 non-transparent/1-Bit Alpha?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MrOromdubel It depends on what your editing. Not for the camos it can't be used though.

[MrOromdubel]

@v0HaVoK0v Alright, thanks dude! (:

[bradrayp]

Worked like a charm. Thanks!

[martintokio7]

why when i modifiy the cammo say error the mw2?:(

[v0HaVoK0v]

@martintokio7 Either the CRC fixing or Hex editing, which camo was it that you were editing?

[JOELNOCH]

This this only works for desert. I think the coding is different for other camos cos it didn't work for me in other camos

[v0HaVoK0v]

@JOELNOCH Its works for them all, I make camos all the time, as you can see by my other videos.

I still use the same method all the time.

[JOELNOCH]

@v0HaVoK0v Yeah my bad, I made a mistake by sellecting the menu camos.

[martintokio7]

@v0HaVoK0v modifing the weapon_cheytac_new_col <- intervention :S

[v0HaVoK0v]

@martintokio7 That's a skin your editing, not a camo, so only difference is when saving it in photoshop, save it as DXT5

[MrDubWorld]

This might not work anymore, says image file corrupt.

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MrDubWorld When does it say this? When opening in photoshop, or when converting?

[MrDubWorld]

@v0HaVoK0v thank god a reply. it says it when I try to load up the game.

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MrDubWorld It seems like your either hex editing it wrong, or you didn't crc fix it.

Sometimes it can go corrupt, the best way to check is, convert it back to .dds and look a the preview the converter gives you, does it look like it went corrupt?

[MrDubWorld]

@v0HaVoK0v ah, i see what i did wrong. at the hex part i didnt highlight the two lines like you did, i just pasted them. works now thanks :)

[xtracentral]

how do you get the new background on 6:05 ?

[TheZoneOfCoD]

can i get this in my xbox ??????

[transformersking3]

Do you know how to make guns chrome? I see alot of those on Youtube yet I can't figure out how to add the effect when I mod.

[v0HaVoK0v]

@transformersking3 Yes, look at my camo pack 3 vid, I have nice chrome in it.

[xMiGjEn921x]

[DaniDragon97]

[rapmaster125]

and btw, i cant open it in adobe photoshop CS5.1? its not working i get a meassage: could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document. please help me, i have done everything in ur video

[v0HaVoK0v]

@rapmaster125 Its CS5.1. Have you installed the plugins to open that format?

If you have, have you restarted your computer since installing? Its been a while since this video, But I remember I had a problem like that at first, and I think it worked after a restart.

[rapmaster125]

[PwNaRulf]

[v0HaVoK0v]

[ImSimplyCuban]

[sawinferno]

when installed and replaced it tells me I can not start the game that the file it replaced as I do. help

[v0HaVoK0v]

@sawinferno are you sure you're replacing it? Did you use CRCFixer? check to see if there file size is the same as the original and let me know.

[JTobaco]

THANK YOU SO MUCH I FIXED MY PROBLEM AND NOW I HAVE CUSTOM CAMOS! THANX!!!!!!! ::D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D::D:D:D

[JTobaco]

when i try to open hxd it say something about the path!

[25colt]

how do i install in the plugin plz answer

[TheWowrecorder]

do others se this?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@TheWowrecorder Nope, but toi your screen others have it, which is better that way, because if others could see this, they would presume your a hacker.

[ShaKiiiie]

if i want to paint the mag too ? how can i see the coulors out of the game and where it sit ?

[v0HaVoK0v]

@ShaKiiiie If you want to paint the mag then you have of edit the gun "Skin" and not the "Camo".

The guns skins are in the IW_07 aswell and usually go by the name Weapon_(GunName)_col.iwi

You will know where the mag is in it, because editing skins shows a picture and gun peices, then you just paint on top.

The rest is all the same as in this video.

[MRappelsapFTW]

omfg i just made my own spongebob skin :DDD

[EnvyLightGear]

What is the length and width of the .dds file? I can't open .dds files but I can save as them.

[v0HaVoK0v]

@EnvyLightGear Length and Width is 128 X 128 for the camo files, its bigger for skins, but size shouldn't matter.

What is the error its giving you when you open it?

[EnvyLightGear]

@v0HaVoK0v I'm sorry, but someone was on my account. Thanks anyway. Peace!



[MRappelsapFTW]

Best tut ever!!

Thx man!

[MarcoDHProductions]

how can I make them work online?

it says ''files differ from server''

other people's files that i dload work online, but mine don't :(

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MarcoDHProductions If you hex edited them, the way I show, then they will work on all servers

[MarcoDHProductions]

@v0HaVoK0v

I found out what was wrong, apparently I had dragged a file out of iw_07 rather than copying it, all my camos work now, I uploaded a video of 8 camos and I'm working on ''flaming'' secondaries (and riot)

tell me what you think :)

[v0HaVoK0v]

@MarcoDHProductions I like them especially Red-Black.

Have you ever check out all of mine :)

I'm thinking on making a video of them.

[mawbym8]

hbow do i put it in to the iwi conerter i have a dds converter but not a iwi

[v0HaVoK0v]

@mawbym8 if you downloaded what I have in the description you would have it.

[mawbym8]

help evry time i drop my new camo in to the converter it comes up with a preview and does not convert back to a IWI type

[v0HaVoK0v]

@mawbym8 You are putting the .DDS file in the IWI to DDS converter, put in the DDS to IWI converter.
