I dont get it, i changed it to a v3o, went into editor, unlocked it, renamed it to a .dds file and its still not unlocked?

I'm not sure what the problem is. :gruebel:

When you first change the file name, do you get a warning that pops up saying that it could make the file unstable?

Yes "doing this could make the file unuseable" or something. Just about ready to give up. :machkaputt:

The LAPD Chevy Impala included in the Additonal Units Submod by Hoppah has no markings on its texture but the black and white. If I make my changes, will it still show up still?

Instead of using DDS Converter, download and use Paint.NET. It is free and it can open .dds files so you won't need to convert them.

Hey newfoundking, Pretty sure I did not positive though, I went back into the editor and tried the files again and it comes up with this file is already unpacked, I've tried 2 coverter programs the one from the download center and one other one and also tried opening the files with paint.net and got nothing so far.

NHFD,

I suggest trying the exact same process with another skin that was locked before, jsut to see if you get the same results or if it works... Also, post here, step by step what you did, just incase youmade a little mistake, becuase even I screw up little things like that sometimes, never notice, but it doesn't work because of one tiny step, that's the problem with this stuff, one mistake and it won't work :P

2 went to the editor loaded the la map under mods la 2.0 then under the same menu unpack file model/ vehicles/ LA Ambulance/ abulance011.v30

3 quit the editor when back into my computer files and changed the name back to the original and back to a .dds file

4 went to DDS converter 2.1 and tried to convert the file and I got could not load ambulance01.dds
