How to download war thunder skins to the ps4

Instead I just get a single file with no extension simply named P38 or B17 or whatever. I am at work right now so cant check, but one example I can remember off the top of my head is the DHL skin for the B For that there was a single "B17" file with no extension and when I placed it into the template folder for the corresponding plane , it doesn't work.

I see comments from other people on the skins download page saying "looks great" or whatever, so assume it works for them? I use firefox, and on some of the skins all that downloads is an unusable file with no extension. I can't find the directory or main folder you are talking about. Where is it.

I see nothing about user skins in the menu, or anything about customization in any of the game options or controls sections or anywhere for that matter. Help me! I have downloaded some lovely skins in TGA format but don't know how to apply them.

Just as an fyi, if you don't want to get rid of the default skin, simply create another folder with the same naming convention as the default user skin but have the name of the skin on the end. For example:. Doing it this way will let you switch between skins and will allow you to have multiple skins per plane. Keep in mind that any decals are applied over every skin and not just the default skin. So if you want your new skin to be clean you will need to remove the decals.

I do have a map on the pc with the name warthunder, and i do have a map in there with the name saves, but nothing more. Click on file explorer icon in the taskbar. Click on 'Program Files x86 ' folder. When opened, scroll down and click on 'War Thunder' folder. Once open, scroll down until you locate the 'User Skins' folder. Then you unpack the zips into that folder.

Well i did what you all told meh to and it didn't work. It won't let me look at the photo file of the aircraft when you download it and its really annoying meh. Thanks :lol:. When I download the user skins the folder only has dds, dds, and blk file in it. I used firefox, chrome and explorer and it always downloads only these 3 files.

Kocrew XHawk16 Posted April 8, edited. CyberDeath80 psn You can always try and login to PC with your psn account and try it that way not sure if it will work but worth a try I guess.

It won't work. User skins are disabled on PS4. Posted April 10, edited. Edited April 10, by antiks Posted April 10, Well you used to be able to essentially make your own with decals but then they had to go and severely limit the size Posted April 11, Well, if we can't get custom skins, sure wish Gaijin would at least offer more than just the fugly forest skin for the Russian tanks, and the miserable few the German tanks have.

American tanks don't have a single one!!! I did in the other game, and I would here too, IF!!!! Posted May 25, Then you would take the files out and put them into the uppermost folder - noting that the ingame name of the skin is taken from the folder name. That might be the most complex way of saying "put it in the next folder up in hierachy" ever, but hey I hope it helps.

I also don't see any option to create a template for a plane in the customisation screen in game. I don't have the CDK and still have the user missions folder, but i don't have the user skins folder even when i had the CDK, I uninstalled it because it messed up my computer I still didn't have the user skins folder.

All the War Thunder add-ons are messed up. Quite a few of the skins I have downloaded dont seem to have the. Instead I just get a single file with no extension simply named P38 or B17 or whatever.

You pay GE for them and the owners will receive something from your purchase. Which I think is great!. So it looks like user created skins CAN be transferred to the console version. Those user skins you can buy have been incorporated into the game and been through Sony quality assurance as an integral part of the game.

It's a security issue. Sony wont allow any code on their consoles unless it has been QA'd first. Most of us are aware of the Sony QA problem. But, if done properly through Gaijin's own system of making a user created item incorporated into the game as an official item, not only do we win by getting extra skins camo to use.

But the person who created them, will get some cash royalties for them, a sure inspiration to create them. User generated content is available on many different games for ps4. Though it is not available here. Move along. Nothing to see here. Im okay with the fact that they cant put in usermade skins, all though, I hope in the future that Gaijin will add more usermade skins that possible too buy ingame, and the they can pay the creators for them, just like the usermade planes.
