Hello, for those who don't understand the tutorials, I can tell you the steps to follow ;p... (this is for weapon skins, but if you get that, you'll figure out the others ;) ) note: if a folder isn't there in the open explorer window, create it!
-First, download it, and if it's a zip file, unzip it and keep it handy.
-Then, in another window => open File Explorer, Local Disk, Valve, Steam, Steamapps, your Steam account name, Counter Strike Source, CS Strike. Keep this window handy.
-Look at your unzipped skin folder, you'll see several folders: materials, models, sound, scripts...

For the skins in the materials folder, go to materials (the explorer window), you'll see several folders, but we don't care about those xD, the one that interests us is "models"! Go there, you will see "players", "weapons", "shells" (for the shell bullets^^). Enter "weapons". Then in the unzipped window do the same! You will see in both cases v_models or w_models.
If there is a v_models in the unzipped folder, take it and put it in the other v_models (File Explorer...), do the same for w_models.

For the model skins, it's simple, in the explorer window... go back to see the materials folder... below or in the corner you'll see "models", go to your unzipped folder, copy what's in models (not the one from materials ;-), if you see v_models or w_models, follow the previous procedure!) and put it in the models of File Explorer (you'll recognize it because it has no subfolders!)

For sound skins, open sound in File Explorer and in your unzipped folder, copy it into the unzipped, and put it in sounds (File Explorer, etc., etc.)

For script skins, I had to create it with a subfolder, so if in your unzipped file there is "sounds", create it next to materials, and if in this "sounds" there’s a subfolder, create it in "sounds"! And put the "sounds" skin in the created subfolder!

Hoping that I have been clear, if not, I might come back to re-explain, or give my email... but still, take lessons from someone my age xD!

Hello everyone

So to install skins, it's very simple, you just need to have WinRAR to get started. Then you go to:
program files/steam/steamapps/your account/cstrike/materials/ and inside you create a folder called models, and inside the folder you created, you name it weapons. Then inside that, you create 2 folders, one called v_models and the other w_models.
You go to program files/steam/steamapps/your account/cstrike/models (if you haven't created it) and in this folder, create a new folder called weapons.
Then open your downloaded skin inside, normally you should have 2 files, sometimes there will only be 1 file, and the models file will have lots of small files, you put them in the folder program files/steam/steamapps/your account/cstrike/models/weapons.
Then there will always be in your skin materials/models/v_models or w_models, those 2 files you will put in the 2 folders you have already created. Here is the path:
program files/steam/steamapps/your account/cstrike/materials/models/weapons/v_models and w_models. If you still don't understand, let me know where so I can help you. Have a great day everyone!

Hello,
I'm not a pro at games.
However, a hint:
>First, check the subfolders of your installed game on your PC to see if there is a "skins" folder or a folder related to weapons and characters (there should probably be 2 folders); one for characters (I don't know the English term); the other for weapons (guns).
>If your skins are downloaded compressed folders: Extract them into those folders.

goodbye,

Pour décompresser un dossier, vous pouvez utiliser des logiciels comme WinRAR, 7-Zip ou le gestionnaire de fichiers de votre système d'exploitation. Voici les étapes générales : 1. **Téléchargez et installez un logiciel de décompression** si vous ne l'avez pas déjà. 2. **Localisez le dossier compressé** sur votre ordinateur (souvent au format .zip, .rar, etc.). 3. **Faites un clic droit** sur le fichier compressé. 4. Sélectionnez **"Extraire ici"** ou **"Décompresser"** (selon le logiciel installé). 5. Le dossier sera alors décompressé dans le même emplacement ou dans un nouveau dossier. Si vous avez besoin d'instructions spécifiques pour un logiciel particulier, faites-le moi savoir !

Je n'ai toujours rien compris sur comment installer les skins. J'ai téléchargé un skin et quand je le décompresse, il y a deux fichiers, mais après, je les copie où ? Car vos explications ne sont pas très compréhensibles, désolé... Une fois que j'aurai compris, je pourrai le faire pour tous, mais il faut que je comprenne ^^ S'il vous plaît, aidez-moi.

Hi everyone, I'm going to try to explain it more simply. So you start the computer and then you download a skin. Once downloaded, go to "This PC," then to "Local Disk" (or "Hard Drive," it depends on the computer), then to "Program Files," then to "Steam," then to "Steamapps." Click on your account name, then click on "Counter Strike Source," and finally click on "C Strike." Keep this window open and open your skins. In there, you have folders (materials, models, sound, script). Now, go back to the C Strike window and move the skin folders into C Strike (while holding down on them). Once these folders are moved, you can play with your skin. I hope I was clear. P.S. In your skins, you might have 4 folders, but you can also have just one folder, and whether there are one, two, three, four, or five files, it's the same method. That's it, goodbye.

I can't install CS:S skins because I don't have the weapon or shells folders. I have material, models, player, and then it says bin... in any case, none of the folders I need. Can someone help me? Thank you in advance! :(

Désolé, Noufel, mais tes indications, je ne peux pas les faire. J'ai tout suivi, mais moi, j'ai Windows Vista, donc c'est mort. Merci quand même.

Hi Thomas, I think you're going to install weapon skins for your player.

First, go to a site like www.fpsbanana.com to choose the skin you want.

Then, here’s a link to the forum of my host www.serveur-counter.com where you’ll find a pretty detailed tutorial to install your skin: http://forum.serveur-counter.com/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=96

Hello, I just read the topic, but the installation of weapon skins, especially for myself.

I'm looking to install weapon skins on my CSS server (I know how to set up character skins).

If someone could enlighten me on this subject, thank you in advance.

If you tap on a folder, you create it ;-)
"nota bene: if a folder is not there in the open desktop window, create it!"

Salut tout le monde, je ne sais pas vraiment télécharger des skins, mais si tu fais une recherche sur Google, tu devrais trouver de l'aide. Moi, je veux bien télécharger des maps pour CSS. J'en ai téléchargé quelques-unes, mais j'ai oublié comment faire. Si vous pouvez me dire comment s'il vous plaît. À plus !
