randomperson139 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 New files added to the download section have to be approved by an admin, so you won't be able to see or download them until they get approved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePoliceGuy Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Rettungstier, I know about image editing etc, I meant getting them ready and putting them back in the game RandomPerson,All the tutorials I have seen do not tell me what to do properly. I've been re-skinning the original EM4 and when I replace the .dds files with my edited one, the skins are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHawk504 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hey rettungstier!I've got a question about ur next tutorial. Its about Automated Gates tutorial? Because i want to know if i will follow the steps written into your next tutorial and apply it to a door of a fire station and there will come a fire truck near it, it will open and close automaticly?

Marshall8946 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 What about a tutorial on map making? I noticed some people and myself would really like to make a new map for our modifications and such. You could show how to texture a map, how to add spawns and exits, VOs(w/out scripts), etc. Just an idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
