In past versions, we could put custom skins on the corresponding vehicles in advance on the main interface of the game, and here are the steps to achieve it
Step 1 In customization, select userskins to attach the custom skin
The second step is to select “Replays” in the main interface of the game to select one of the game replays, click the player before loading out, then the player will load out because the main interface has been set with custom skin, so the player vehicle will display the custom skin set in the game replays
This is a mechanic application that has been used by game and film creators in the past
This use allows viewers to use their own local custom skin to put on any player in the game replays, which has a richer choice for game promoters and film creators.
The most classic example, such as when we need to shoot a fan creation movie of “Ace Combat”, War Thunder itself cannot provide the corresponding official skin, and we need to choose custom skins to show these skins for shooting in the video replays
However, the original mechanism also has its corresponding shortcomings, such as the same vehicle model can only be put on one custom skin in the video at a time, if we need two F15s with different custom skins, then we can only put different custom skins on two different F15s, which if there are more vehicles need more custom skins. This is clearly not enough to meet this demand
In addition, with version 2.43.0.77, it is no longer possible to add custom skins for players other than the video provider in game replay, this is the case in both land and air combat vehicles
We therefore make the following recommendations
First, add a new UI to allow players to add custom skins to any player vehicle in video replays, including land, sea and air vehicles.
Second, it is allowed to add more than one custom skin to the vehicle on the same model in the game playback, such as F15J(M) in the game video playback, two players use the vehicle in the same game, but can still put different custom skins on them
Third, allow the player to add custom skins to vehicles that the player does not own in the game playback
If the players viewing this suggestion post have more suggestions
You are welcome to comment here
Game video playback is definitely an infinite platform created by players, creating infinite possibilities for players to produce beautiful photos, beautiful videos. We’d like you to add a ui to make it easier for players to add custom skins for each player in the playback. Let game video creators promote more excellent works for War Thunder
Best wishes to all War Thunder team members! Thank you!
