I think you may need to convert the mesh frrom FF1 to FFv3R. There is a converter at Freedom Fortress...

http://www.alexff.com/index.php

... under Mods and Goodies. If you haven't been there before, you might as well just dowload EVERYTHING. You won't be sorry.

Oops, lest I forget: ALWAYS save an unconverted copy. You can convert from FF1 to FFv3R, but you can't go back (unless Johnny Patches has figured out something)

That wasn't it. See i had copyed the folder and renamed it not sure if that could do anything. I heard some talk about pink skins perhaps
my problem is the same.

Maybe if you save your skin files as a dds file, instead of a tga file?

Make sure you also have all the _glow and _refl files in order.

I am pretty sure that problem comes from not having the right glow and refl files (like LP said)

Hmm, I know this problem has come up a number of times and after looking through a number of the archived tech help pages it looks like the problem is that it is MISSING glow or/and refl.TGA files.

Maybe a silly question, but have you actually gone into the game proper rather than just the character creation screen?
And is it the same in-game?

If so, make a copy of your skin, and in the copy, add files from a working skin till you find which file is causing it to appear wonky. then fix whatever is missing/broken.

Does this problem happen when the skin is saved wrong (either format or size).

figures after i post i found a way to fix that work for me, what i did was i removed the ult_Merlyn fold from the charters started the game when to charters screen went to my custom green arrow character now meshless pressed okay backed out exited the game put the folder back in the characters folder and now it seems to work.
