Sudden Attack Skinning Tutorials

Sudden Attack Gloves and Sleeves Skins
* ONLY WORK FOR SANA FOR NOW *
Instruction listed below is the same for skinning any kind of weapons, maps, or interface.

Why use this skin?
With these skins, you are able to use character skins that requires a very high ranking. Also just for the heck of it
Can other players see it too?
only YOU can see your skins, since this is NOT a hack.
Will I get banned for skinning?
No. Even though skinning is against the rule, skinnings can't be detected nor patched.
How long does this skinning process take?
Around 10 minutes if you have done it before. Maybe 15 minutes for first timers.
Who made this thread and *revised* the skins below?
Me, Mistasparkle or in some forum you can find me as Kuldurath.
Why does this only work for SANA and not other servers?
With this process, it should work with ALL servers. However, giv for each server is a little different. there is a universal one but it takes forever, maybe up to an hour to load. The gvi I uploaded is superfast, only for all you busy gamers out there.

This package provides :

W-Scout



Squad-Ranger



Commander Red



Commander Blue

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Download all the files attached to this thread
2. Go to your Sudden Attack folder, which mine is "C:\Program Files\GameHi_USA\SuddenAttackNA"
A fast shortcut would be just right click on the Sudden Attack icon -> properties -> find target.
3. Replace the Gvi.dat files in the SA folder with the newly modified gvi.dat file you just downloaded. Make sure you *replaced* the old gvi file.
4. Close all your SA stuff, and start Sudden Attack
5. SA should be starting to patch itself. it'll go from downloading to updating. this is normal, so just wait.
6. When the laucher says "updating" and the loading bar is at 80%, click start->run and enter %temp%.
7. A folder should open with bunch of random files. You now have to find a folder with a name of 8 random letters. When you find it, make sure the folder was just created.
8. Once you are in the folder, go to game->sa_weapon->skins->pv
9. Now replace the glove and sleeve file attached to this thread. Make sure you *replaced*
10. Wait for the SA launcher to finish loading. And then click start game.
