⚠️ Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. "No skin folders found in skins/!"

   • Create folders inside skins/
   • Ensure they contain skin files

2. "Failed to copy [filename]"

   • Close CS 1.6 before installing
   • Check write permissions
   • Verify the target path

3. Compilation errors

   • Ensure GCC is installed and in your PATH
   • Run build script from project root

Important

Always close CS 1.6 before installing skins to prevent file conflicts.
