Change colors on elite skins

Postby ~ Asurmen ~ » Tue 28 Apr, 2020 10:44 am

Hello, I saw while watching some replays on youtube that it's possible to change the colors of Ynnaris, exodites or Harlequins.

I tried but I can't on my version, any idea why ?

I use to play Harlequins but the colors are little bit to flashy xD help me mates !

Thx for your reply, but I'll need more help, I never did something like that and I tried but I can't find this :

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\dawn of war ii - retribution\ELITE\Data\config

Where should I search it ? In wich files ? On steam ? On my computer ?

Ok, I found, I did everything correctly, but didn't work :(

I didn't found the update.bat-file . it's only called updated on my files. Maybe it's the reason ?

If it didn't work you didn't follow the steps correctly.
Start over.

The file can only be called "update". The file type is "Windows Batch File".
