    • Choose the skin you want and copy (.dff + .txd) files (example I took id: 234) from [ C:\Program Files (x86)\MTA San Andreas 1.5\mods\deathmatch\resources\CITskinMods\plrmods ]
    • Soo I took (s234.txd + s234.dff) from there [C:\Program Files (x86)\MTA San Andreas 1.5\mods\deathmatch\resources\CITskinMods\plrmods]
      Show content
    • Then I changed the name of them to (234.txd + 234.dff)
      Show content
    • Then open TXD workshop.
      Show content
    • Then press Open TXD.
    • And I choosed 234.txd .
      Show content
    • Then I choosed (skin) as Brian said
      Show content
      Skin ID: 234 -
      Show content
      Filename: s234.txd - Shader name: "skin" -- Magician Girl
      Show content
      (Shader name: skin) .
      Show content
    • Then I pressed Export to get the texture and i'll be able to edit it. (As PNG)
      Show content
    • Then I opend photoshop then I opend the texture on photoshop (skin.png)
      Show content
      .
    • I changed the size for it to 1024x1024 (By clicking Left Ctrl + Alt + I ) soo you'll make the skin HD-In photoshop
      Show content

      Note:
      Maximum resolution of the jpg image you can send is 1024x1024 or 1024x512 depending on skin you'll submit, this means you can turn any skin into high definition texturised skin.
      .
    • I did I quick edit on the texture, (use your imagination and create an awsome skin)
      Show content
      .
    • I saved it as .png (Soo I replaced the orginal one) [Press Save AS]
      Show content
      then

    • Then I replaced the orginial skin (By clicking Import then I choosed the new texture).
      Show content
    • Then click SAVE TXD
      Show content
    • I got a mod will make easy for you soo all you need is the change the numbers on the mod to your skin id.(i choosed skin id: 234 soo you can see here alot of 234 that's mean when I enter the game and choose skin number 234 my new skin will appear) in (Skin.lua) and (meta.xml)
    • Soo if you want for example skin 237 change the numbers from 234 to 237 in (Skin.lua) and (meta.xml)
      https://i.imgur.com/xkyJ45L.png (you can see here 234.dff and 234.txd just change the numbers to 237.txd and 237.dff.
      That's picture for (meta.xml) and it's the same for (Skin.lua)
      It's easy just change the numbers in the 2 files (Skin.lua) and (meta.xml)
      [Change the numbers there to any skin id you choosed
      Show content
      -

    If you want a skin from GTA SA original (NOT CIT SKIN MOD), then follow these steps:-

    • Enter that website and find your skin name
      Example: I want id 147, Soo press CTRL + F and type on the search box 147 and copy the Model name which will be under the skin id, ( I took 147 and my Model name is: wmybu )
    • Now download Spark IMG Editor
    • Open Spark.exe
    • Press CTRL + O or Click on File > Open
    • Then go to (C:\Program Files (x86)\Rockstar Games\GTA San Andreas\models) or what ever your GTA SA files.
    • Choose gta3.img then press Open.
    • Now search for your skin Model name.
      Example: I took skin id 147 which my model name is: wmybu
      So I type on the search box wmybu
    • Now click on that search icon .
    • Now Drag your .dff to any empty folder (Just click on it and move it)
    • Also Drag your .txd to the same folder (Just click on it and move it)
    • Now rename them to your skin id
      Example: I took id 147, Soo I need to rename them to ( 147.dff + 147.txd )

    • Now download the mod file from Here or Here
    • Drag the 2 files ( meta.xml + Skin.lua )
    • Open meta.xml
    • Change the numbers to your skin id
      Example: I took skin id: 147 , So I need to change the numbers 234 to 147
    • Then Save.
    • Open Skin.lua
    • Change the numbers to your skin id
      Example: I took skin id: 147 , So I need to change the numbers 234 to 147
    • Then Save
    And that's how you get a GTA SA original ( .txd + .dff ) skin files.



    That's all I have for now and I hope you learned how to make a modded skin and it's the same way if you want to make orginial gta skin.
    You can ask any question related to this guide. And I will answer asap.

    I can't find acl.xml file on deathmatch what can I do?
    The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination. The best intelligence test is what we do with our leisure. The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.

    Can you show or give a video for that tutorial? I got confused from the first until the third step in choosing the files. Thank you
