yes...but just to be sure! by third u mean that in the skin window it is #3 from 3 (shown on the bottom rim of the window.)
does it matter what file type the other two skins are? what do you usually use for them?
also, do i need any textrues on the third (alpha mapped one) besides the alpha map? (right now i have it black all black in rbg mode, but the alpha channel still has its black and white)
would you happen to have a sample hmp that actually works that i can play with?
