little tip, you can pretty much apply any texture.
you just gotta remove some of the last letters/symbles and turn them into a * and then you’ll be able to apply them.

for example,

you’ll find something like:

mercedes_benz_lg3000_overlay_tex_d$hq*
mercedes_benz_lg3000_tent_overlay_tex_d$hq*
mercedes_benz_lg3000_tent_tex_n$hq*
mercedes_benz_lg3000_tex_mask$hq*
( this last one is invented for sake of examples )

the parts that you want to see and be carefull, are the one highlighted.
all you have to do, is delete the " $hq "
you will be left with

tex_d*
tex_n*
tex_mask*
and
tex_ao*

to save you some time,

the _tex AO no matter what, will always be white.

tex_n it’s majority of the time some weird color green or yellow.

and the tex_mask will be 100% of the time red.

the one you want to look for, it’s usually the _tex_d*

this camouflage changed within the last update:
( and looks way worse… but whatever )

ger_camo_winter_grey*

reviewing the others to see if anything else changed too.

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

@ErikaKalkbrenner

us_camo_dark_green_light_olive

this camo has been changed to a more refined one ( i think )

There are so many many many skins for vehicles. Even just looking up online shows so much potential. It’s a shame that we only ever get 1 new skin as a Gold order every few months. If only they added new skins to the customization section every once in a while or even rewards for events or battle pass

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

artificial scarsity of a certain item ( in this case camo paints ) to increase the rarity and create fomo / limited items as ““unique””.
and fomo/rare items, = $$$

( i want the tricolor so bad…( you know, this one that doesn’t look like it’s " puked on " unlike the ones we have ) but that’s highly unlikely to be ever obtainable outside mods )

in other instances, makes no sense having no gray/tan paint camo for most of the vehicles etc.

it is what it is.

[iso_seppo123]

I really want to use the Hinterhalt_man camo for my tiger

[coldestwinter]

I have trying to use this guide to change vehicle skins with mixed success.
I successfully changed the skin of the lvt(a)(1) using this method with an american tank skin. However when I have tried to customize german APCs and vehicles with german skins it hasn’t worked. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

either i got it wrong the first time, or the method as changed.

now, you’ll need to insert the camo that the vehicle has/comes with
not all german vehicles uses ger_camo_dunkelgelb*

for example, apcs and the flak bus only uses ger_camo_grey*

[coldestwinter]

@ErikaKalkbrenner

for example, apcs and the flak bus only uses ger_camo_grey*

Worked! Thank you!
