Introduction
This guide is made to help you import your own skins to the Minecraft Playermodels. First you'll need VTFEdit: https://nemstools.github.io/pages/VTFLib-Download.html
File Structure
First, right-click Garry's Mod in your steam library and under Manage select "Browse local files"

Next, go into garrysmod/addons/ and create a new folder

Then, inside your new folder, create one of the following directories depending on your skin's model type:
materials/models/galunga/skinalex/
materials/models/galunga/skinsteve/
Importing a Skin
Once you've finished creating the folders for your skin, open VTFEdit, and Import your skin with the following settings:

Now that your skin is imported, enable the Point Sample Flag and save it as one of these files inside your previously created directory

Now that you've saved the file, you should be able to select your custom skin in game!

Ded_Insult_2004 did you create a vmt file? If you did then delete it and leave the vtf file by itself.
