If you play GTA: San Andreas, the raciness and interest of the protagonist will not give you a reason to think about replacing his appearance. However, if you started playing “SAMP” and want to play a role on the RP server, then you should definitely think about choosing a unique appearance for your character. It turns out that this can be done extremely simply, since there are special programs for replacing skins in SAMP. Without them, replacing skins will be possible, but extremely difficult, and you may experience certain problems with the further launch and functioning of the game. Therefore, it is recommended that you still use special programs to replace skins in "SAMP".
Program download
So, if you are interested in replacing skins in "SAMP", then you should pay attention to special software that facilitates and automates this process. For example, there is a Crazy IMG Editor program that allows you to edit any skin that exists in the game GTA: San Andreas. Using this program is very easy, and you will understand this when you read the article and deal with how the skins are replaced in SAMP. At first glance, everything may seem rather complicated, but if you practice, you can change skins not only for the main character, but for any character and object in the game in seconds. Well, it's time to figure out how to give your virtual protégé a unique look so that it stands out from other players on the server.
Download skins
Some gamers can make their own skins, but this will require you to understand the essence of the skins, as well as good skills in graphic editors. If you are not confident in your skills or simply do not want to spend a lot of time on such tasks, then you just need to go to one of the many sites devoted to various modifications of "SAMP", where you will find everything you need to implement replacement of skins in GTA: SAMP. Choose the ones you like, and then download the archives that will be offered to you on the site. On some pages there is even a distribution of skins for those objects to which you can apply them in the game so that you can more easily navigate.
Skin installation
Suppose you downloaded a military skin for yourself. Replacing the skin in "SAMP" is as follows: first of all, you need to find the source file containing the original skin that you plan to replace. You can find them in the Models folder, and there you can already choose which object you want to change. If we are talking about the main character, then you should look for a file with the name gta3 and the extension img. You need to open this file using the editor described above.
After that, you will need to select the editing mode, after which you can change the skin yourself. But you can also choose the option that you downloaded from the Internet. Please note that you will be required to provide two files: in the dff and txd extensions. Make sure that you first replace the file with the dff extension, and only then txd, because otherwise the replacement may not work correctly.
That's all, you got a new skin for your character, so now you can shine on each of the servers you have chosen.
Automatic installation of skins
The program described above allows you to flexibly change any skins that can be found within the framework of this game. However, far from always you can set yourself the goal of deep editing, so you should know about another way that will allow you to act as quickly as possible, but at the same time no less efficiently. The fact is that if you have the necessary software, you will be able to replace skins in "SAMP" with automatic installation. All you need to do is select the source object, the desired skin and start the process. The program will perform all other actions on its own. This does not give you such flexibility in actions, but significantly speeds up and facilitates the process.
What kind of approach to choose, each gamer must decide for himself. However, the fact is that you can change the appearance of your main character, as well as how each object or character in the game looks, absolutely without problems and efforts.
