DonG Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 In the skin download section there are several skins emphasize that they are from/for SB version 2.546,..Why is that,does it mean that skins from older versions dont work anymore,or has it to do with something else... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueSnake79 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 New models have been added to the game. For instance, M1A1, Bradley, T-72, Leo2A4. These vehicles have been completely redone. And skins created before 546 are for their older models, and no longer work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbus Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Are there Leo2A4 skins for version 2.640? This one for example says "...works with version 2.460 or higher" but wasn't the model changed in 2.5?I'm looking for Finnish camo and roundels in particular. Winter camo would be nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 "2.460 or higher"? That's a little misleading. If the model is changed in the future (don't think the exterior of the 2A4 was included this go-round, just a new interior) it will not work anymore. Until then it will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbus Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 What about the first payware, 2.5? Didn't the exterior model change then? Post #2 says so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacbat Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Well, the easiest way to find out is just try them. If they don't work for you, then I would suggest that you post a comment below the file saying that it's not compatible with version 2.xxx. That way you're at least helping out the next guy if he has the same question (and maybe the author will update them if you send him a PM). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) I can't find anything in the 2.538 release notes (the first update after 2.4) that says the 2A4 was updated. The two subsequent releases were minor patches to correct some bugs, IIRC. So, bottom line: the skin should still work. You can always just download and try it. If it doesn't show up when others will, it's probably outdated.Edit: Tacbat...fastest typist in the West.Re-edit: Found it: Only the armor file was updated.

congo Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 You can also look at the naming structure of the dds file as in the case of the leopard2A4.dds and the leo2A4.dds. When the models were upgraded the skin file was upgraded hence the new name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted December 19, 2011 Members Share Posted December 19, 2011 I can't find anything in the 2.538 release notes (the first update after 2.4) that says the 2A4 was updated.I try to be complete in the RNs. If the notes say that something has changed, there is a very high likelihood that this is true. If it doesn't list a change, there's still a much larger than 50% chance that it didn't change, but it's still "somewhat less certain" than a statement about a change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
