Running Modifications
Skins
Skins can be installed simply by following these steps:
- Create a new directory in your MM8BDM folder called "skins".
- Extract the wad/pk3 from the skin zip file into the new skins directory.
- Launch the game. You should now be able to select your skin from the player setup menu! (NOT the in game selector)
You can use skins online but only those who have the same skin installed will be able to see them.
