As i like Camouflage,I tried getting the German forrest Camouflage on a GDI Medium Tank

http://img473.imageshack.us/img473/3144/tankskinmc1.png

Using a grey Channel of the med, then Using A Camouflage pattern i created ( with some help Very Happy ) so i overlay it on the Grey Channel layer of the med.

Only my Problem is, using a overlay also changes the barrel,lights etc, how could i get the Camouflage Skin on the med without giving the barrel + Lights the skin ( Just a different skin for the Yellow Metal texture ) and not the barrel? As u can see on a lot of skins --> so using the Ren skin for the barrel and lights etc

Copy and past pieces of the original texture over your new one.

You need to find the barrel segment and light segment and not put the texture over them. Apart from that, looks good. (just don't make it glow in the dark or people here will accuse you of cheating) Look Round

Gonna try it with that, but its so hard to see what parts are from the barrel, lights and what's not ( even at Pixel Size )

I mean this on the default Medium tank .dds skin btw, that 1 in always.dat, just cause the med Metal itself also has some black spots

Take this as refrence. All circled in red is the barrel and/or lights so don't throw your texture over them.

Now all you would have to do is go into Microsoft pain and past the barrel pieces over you textured barrels.

I don't believe MSPaint allows you to use the .dds format though. ;p

For decreasing the noise, you can just hit up top where it says Filter, then find Noise , then click on despeckle and thats all there is to it.
