Does anyone know the step by step procedure for how to Re-skin and/or Re-paint locomotives/rail cars for Trainz 12 for Mac. I use the Trainz and ask questions there but 98% of the users are PC users. Don't get me wrong, they try to help as best as they can with the reskinning advice. So I thank them for their efforts. But I thought I would ask an Apple user (since I have a Mac obviously) if they know how to reskin on a Mac computer with Trainz Simulator. If nobody has Trainz 12 but knows how to do reskinning in general, whether it be planes, trucks, boats, etc then please let me know. I use Gimp because Paint.net is for PC. If you have a suggestion on a better or easier paint program for Mac than Gimp, let me know - - the paint program has to have the option to save files to TGA format. Anyhow, if anybody knows the step by step procedures in how to do reskinning, I could sure use the help. Thank you.

A warm welcome to Mac-Forums.
Your topic, totally unknown to me, stimulated my interest and I did a bit of research.

Look at the latest entry where the author comments on the Mac-equivalent terms for reskinning as compared to Windows' terms.
It is an old Forum, but....

Even if these don't help and you have to wait for expert help from colleagues here, you will at least know that you are welcome;D

I'm sure no expert but sure did enjoy my model train days, but there are some hits for the interesting question about modifying the Trainz skins here:
