So, is Riot okay with these custom skins? I'm guessing they don't care since only you are going to be able to see them?

It is legal.
And with custom particle effects, do I have to label them to character folders as well? Or do I just shove them all into the "Particles" folder?

EDIT:
Found out you just have to put the specified particle .dds files into the folder. You do not need to separate them. If two skins share the same .dds file name, just pick the one you want most because I do not believe both will work at the same time.

So open up the downloaded particles folder, and put those files into the Characters folder? or put the custom Particles folder in the characters folder? Or put the custom particles files in the Particles folder?

Hey guys,

Nevan from EU here. I just had a short question, I've been messing around with renaming existing skins from the heropak_client zip file and changing them to default skins. (and rename the default to match the replacing one) This all works fine, except for Jax, which I haven't been able to fix yet. I would want to have the midnight Jax skin, and am able to get the right loadscreen, but the skin itself is doing something weird, it either displays as normal Jax with midnight Jax's club, or as an orange Jax, with an orange club. The files I have changed were named armsmaster_midnight .dds/wgt/skn/skl/sco . Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Should I change Armsmaster_Concept.dds or _Diffuse_Cmask.dds to?

Nevan

Just curious. Are you going to add the new hero names to the list? Or are they just the same as the actual champion name?
