Default this skin effect would almost be cool if i was trying to do it
My skins messing up. It's black with blue marks instead of what it's supposed to be and I don't have a clue why.

Did you enable mipmaps when you saved the textures?

Your mipmaps are there, but they're really messed up. How did you generate them?

I fixed it by exporting the texture, saving it with mipmaps, and replacing it.

I think an old version of Skininator had a bug that might have caused this but I'm not sure. Anyway, you can save the DDS with mipmaps again and replace the texture, or you can save it as a PNG and let Skininator make the mipmaps when you import it.

Okay I saved it as a .png, and now it's working in-game and in the CAS but not in the icons. I'm pulling my hair out a little over what I'm doing wrong.

Maybe the icon needs to regenerate. Try switching to another skin and back again. And/or try deleting your local thumbnails package.
