Opening the Editor

Press K while in-game to open the Skincraft menu. Select the option to create a new blank skin canvas. You'll see both a flat grid view and a live 3D model of your character.

Painting Your Design

Use the color picker to select your palette. The eyedropper tool lets you grab colors from existing skins or reference images. Paint directly onto the flat grid for precision, or switch to the 3D model view to see how your design looks in real-time as you work.

Use the undo button if you make mistakes—you can step back through your changes without losing progress. Work section by section: start with the head, then move to the body, arms, and legs.

Saving Your Creation

Once satisfied with your design, click the save button. Your custom skin is automatically applied to your character and stored in your local outfit folder. You can now wear it immediately in-game, or upload it to the community library so other players can discover and use your creation.
