 PED LOADER
 Add new skins to GTA San Andreas without replacing any
=====================================================================

WHAT IT DOES
------------
Normally, to add a new skin you have to replace one of the game's
skins. GTA San Andreas has some free skin numbers (ids) that the game
never uses: Ped Loader prepares all 24 of them, so you can add up to
24 new skins and keep every original one.

The new skins have their own numbers, so you can use them anywhere
skins are chosen by number, for example as actors in DYOM.

You do not need to edit any file: just rename your skin and copy it.


REQUIREMENTS
------------
- GTA San Andreas v1.0
- Mod Loader


INSTALLATION
------------
Copy the whole Ped Loader folder into your modloader folder:

 GTA San Andreas\modloader\Ped Loader\
 readme.txt
 Ped Data\peds.ide
 Ped Model\skin001.dff, skin001.txd ... skin289.dff, skin289.txd


HOW TO ADD A SKIN
-----------------
1. Choose a free slot from the list below (male or female).
2. Rename your skin's files to that slot's name, for example:
 myskin.dff -> skin074.dff
 myskin.txd -> skin074.txd
3. Copy them into Ped Loader\Ped Model\ and replace the files that are
 already there.
4. Start the game: your skin is now number 74.

Every slot comes with a placeholder skin (a copy of an original
pedestrian), so nothing breaks if you use a slot that you have not
filled yet.


FREE SLOTS
----------
 Male slots (walk and talk like a man):
 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 42, 265, 266, 267, 268
 Female slots (walk and talk like a woman):
 65, 74, 86, 119, 149, 208, 269, 270, 271, 272, 273, 289

NOTE: The ped behaviours are defined in peds.ide. 
You can change them at the end of the file if you know how, 
allowing the skins to behave differently.

NOTES
-----
- DYOM missions: only available for DYOM 8.3.
- More of DYOM: if you make a mission that uses Ped Loader skins,
 the players also need Ped Loader AND the same skins in the same
 slots. Each player fills the slots with their own skins, so share
 your skin files together with your mission, or write in the mission
 description which skins it needs.
- Ped Loader includes a full peds.ide (the original one plus the 24
 new skins). Mod Loader uses it INSTEAD of the game's one, so other
 mods that also change peds.ide will not work together with Ped
 Loader.
- The placeholder skins are copies of two original pedestrians:
 "male01" (male slots) and "bfyst" (female slots).
- Advanced: the way each slot walks, talks and behaves is set in its
 line in Ped Data\peds.ide. You can change it there if you know how.
