I have no idea how to extract textures from the game for editing. But I am pretty good with photoshop. I want to take all Marine Corps Infantry units and make the desert marpat. If someone can give me image files for these units, I will be happy to skin them.

I cant really help but Desert Marpat would be awesome!! Especially with the release of CAA1. It'd fit right in with Sahrani and Porto.
Good luck! I hope you can get what you need and make so kickass Desert Marpat Marines!
GND Tech! Check it out!

Plugin settings are OK...you might want to try the default of Filter Alpha enabled. The stock -unaltered- Alpha 1 is still present in Channels, correct?
