Packaging skins.. by SmokingCookie on 03-03-2008 at 04:13 PM
Hi,
I'm wondering if there's some special program (like ScriptPackager for scripts) to pack skins..
I'm wondering this, because when I pack my skin using WinRAR and change the ".ZIP" into ".PLSK", Plus! shows a warning that the skin package is damaged..
Any ideas?
Tnx in advance.

No. Try downloading WinZip. It is easier with this and the method is the same. From Skin.zip to Skin.plsk.

did you include a skininfo file?
RE: Packaging skins.. by SmokingCookie on 03-03-2008 at 04:29 PM
Same error..
EDIT:: Yes I did

if you're using WinRAR, are you sure you're making a ZIP archive, and not a RAR?

Yep..
EDIT::
I got the mistake.. Very syupid 
As I pack the skin in a ZIP file, I add the root folder to the file..
This is an easier description:
%Path%\Skin.zip/Skin/SkinInfo.xml
Should be:
%Path%\Skin.zip/SkinInfo.xml
I'm sorry for bothering you guys..

something else that has happened to me before with scripts. I zipped the folder for the script and renamed it to plsc for a script, but this caused the same error because the files were put in a folder instead the root directory in the zip.
Make sure you zip the files, and not the folder for the skin.
