This probably has been addressed already, but i was trying to do some skining, and for some reason when i convert the skin is all black. I am folowing the correct steps to do it, and I have used the process before in the past, however i have ocasionally found this problem I figure it is due to too much different color detail, or something could someone help me out with this Smile

This happened to me, not sure exactly but someone told me it's the alpha channel, or alpha layer, not sure which. Paint.net isn't really helpful there.

Or it's the wrong DXT.

You should export the texture in the same DXT format as the texture you are replacing. Generally textures with alpha are exported as DXT5, whilst textures without alpha are exported as DXT1.

Also make sure to delete your .thu files when modifying textures.
