How Do You Replace Sprites/skins?

Darkwolf

<div class="IPBDescription">Out with the old and In with the new</div> When I try to replace weapon skins, (like lmg) they never change.

Im sorry if the answer is posted somewhere already, If thats the case, would someone give me the link, or just explain how to replace weapon skins?

I guess im just a noob in this area.

Check the customization forum - there are loads of tutorials on how to do it.

Can you give me a link, ive look in every page and in every topic, and the only thing in the topics are "Good job" "It looks very cool"

Even the readmes just say, "Copy into /hl/ns/sprites/ folder to use them" but that doesnt work, so it would be very appreached if someone could give me a link to a tutorial.

I was looking for how to REPLACE (as in instead of using the normal hmg, i want to use someone elses.) That topic was entirely about how to "Make Models, Skins, Or Sprites" If someone could just quickly tell me how to make .mdl's into the game sprite or prove how blind and stupid i am. I would be a very happy camper

Most model replacements have a self extractor, or a directory sturcture so you can just point it to your nsp directory and let it do all the hard work. If it doesn't, you need to find the file in your nsp/model directory(/ies) and replace it manually. Doing a search for the model filename will turn it up, then rename it (to something like [modelname]_backup.mdl, incase you want to go back to it) and put the new one in its place.
