Now folow the steps:-
* 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

(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:
--- Quote from: Brian on 10 02, 2014, 12:29:28 pm ---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 Show content then I replaced the orginal one Show content then press Save and then press OK, then I choosed the quilty Show content
* Then I opend TXD workshop again.
* 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 - Show content I mean that numbers 234 change it to your skin that you choosed]After finishing all of that folow the next steps:-
* Now download the mod file from Here or Here
* Copy the edited mod.
* Then paste it in [ C:\Program Files (x86)\MTA San Andreas 1.5\server\mods\deathmatch\resources ].Show content
* Then edit the acl.xml (You will find it there [ C:\Program Files (x86)\MTA San Andreas 1.5\server\mods\deathmatch ].
* Added that line under Console (To be Admin and you can start the mod)

--- Quote ---        <object name="user.ABO-KBOS"></object>

Example: Show content just replace (ABO-KBOS) with your account
If your (acl.xml) bugged, Download mine from Here or Here and just change my account name to your account name. Press on that icon to download the file Show contentAfter finishing all of that folow the next steps:-

For example mine is id: 234 . Show content
* So as you can see my modded skin added and my shader added too. Show content - 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 SaveAnd that's how you get a GTA SA original ( .txd + .dff ) skin files.
