Can't find the other soldiers in the Soldier Art Pack

Hello, I purchased the soldier art pack. I am a newbie here. Please bear with me. Today I learned how to switch the main character. I added the .CS file for the pack to the project via adding to the art folder that I think was in folder called game. The choice to switch to the soldier was available via F11 World Editor. How do I get the other soldiers? Should I me adding the Materials.cs file somewhere also?

I love this engine, the community and the great documentation. When I first got my license I shyed away for several months and played with A8. I am finding now that I need to play in the console and the editors in between the Game Programming All in One book I have been reading. I enjoy playing with this engine

Thanks,

Robert

    once you have added all the files to your game directory you just need to swap the materials. the steps on how to do this are at the bottom of the included instructions for the pack.

    You should be able to copy the pack directly into the soldier directory and then change the materials inside the of material editor. The pack includes the .dds UV maps for the soldier. You just need to change the textures for the soldier. It's not actually swapping out the soldier model. We included the Max model in case you needed it, but you don't actually need to work with it to make the skins work.

    Thanks for the quick responses everybody. I will try that when I get off work today. Also, thanks becasue I did not know that .dds are UV mapps.

    I hope to one day have a question like "I have all these models flying around and the game is almost done but I need to make cut scenes. LOL I do hope get that far some day(-:

    I have make a regular C app for box and product scanning at work. I might try to do it in Torque just for the fun of it. LOL
