		           Shamal Skins Pack

	About this Mod

  This mod contains a set of 3 different colored skins for the Shamal
jet. I created them because I was tired of looking at the drab, dirty
looking one created by Rockstar. I tried a number of different types
of graphics but decided to go for the clean look instead. Those who
want something different can add their own. A picture is included for
previewing. The choices are a blue, black or brass tint.

	Installation

  After unpacking these skins somewhere, make your choice of which one
you want to use. Rename it to 'shamal.txd'. Next, load an IMG editor
(like Img Tool or Spark) and open the 'gta3.img' file located in the
models folder of the game directories. Now you can either scroll about
90% of the way down the list of names until you find the 'shamal.txd'
entry or use the Find commmand to jump to it. Select it and then pick
the 'Export' command to save a backup of the original somewhere safe
(it's always a good idea!). Then choose the 'Replace' command, go to
the folder where you unpacked this archive and load the new skin. If
using Spark or similar, select the Save option to save the changes.
If using Img Tool, you shouldn't need to use the 'Rebuild Archive'
option as the original and new skins are the same size. All done!

  Enjoy the new look!
