Disappearing Skin problem

Hey gents,

I recently created a series of skins but the AI won't wear them. Aside from whatever pun you might throw at me b/c the AI might be too self-conscious to come out wearing them, I can't figure out why the program won't accept the 8 bit 256 color .bmp files.

What are the specific requirements for an IL2 skin beside the 8 bit 256 color .bmp and the 1024 x 1024 dimensions?

IL-2 can have problems with the filename.
So, try a simple filename with no special characters and see if that works.

Serval, you're a lifesaver! Thanks very much! I had a '#' in the name that didn't belong.
