Thanks for the ultra constructive reply. Feel myself guilty for spending your time. I will try this right away. Just correcting if someone else reads this: 'mercs ' folder is in 'SA' folder of 'pers' tab. That's funny. material1 actually has something like Characters\Skins\Humans\USSR\Soldier\Face, but changing this 'face' to 'face_nessie' or to 'race/african' actually gives you black skin color. I will try to find playergen character, but can you tell me where the pregenerated characters are? It looks like there are multiple entries for them, I'm not sure which one to choose.

Will do. I will most likely reply here, but can I use your PM box just in case of something? Edit: got the editor to work. Will try to do something now... Edit mk. 2: OK, I have some report on progress. Console command UnitSetBody( ouc, 4116, 6442 ) gives my character Nessie's body, which means black skin, but completely messed up uniform. Besides, everytime i change uniform, my skin turns white again. I can do stuff in editor, but I can't really find how to change the skin of character. Maybe I just look at the wrong place? Besides, it is look like editor autosaves everything I've done, it makes me a bit nervous. And I don't understand which entry is responsible for the character that will be created by player. In fact, so far I just want to change skin color of any character, for the start.

Well, I'm aware of the editor, but I've never used it and hoped it can be fixed via console... I will have to deal with several technical difficulties first then, thanks (I do not have some MSQL service installed).

First, thanks for answer, and pretty quick answer, I must say. Can you be more specific, please? Character parameters in console or some kind of save editor? Or is it something obvious and right under my nose?

Hello and good time of the day to everyone. I hope, someone of experienced guys is still around here... So, I've installed Silent Storm Sentinels and created a black character to play with. Unfortunately, there's some bug in the game, and all his skin, except the one on the head, eventually turns white. Does anyone know how to fix this? My best suggestion was to use UnitSetBody function in the console. It works like this: UnitSetBody( unit, nModelID ). The problem is: I do not know model IDs. When I try random numbers, nothing changes. Maybe I use this function in a wrong way? Can someone provide model IDs and/or a step-by-step instruction of using UnitSetBody?
