I've done everything the guide asked me to in the beginning, yet It only shows a few of the actual champions from the game, a lot is missing in my "model" list. Do you know how I can fix this? I've tried updating and all.

Any chance you'd know if it is possible to customize the animations and/or models? Thanks for this tutorial, really helped.

I have a problem. I can't find Teemo anywhere in the Models list. He's just not there.

hi, uh, I was wondering if you might know a solution to my problem.

So when I downloaded SIU, I got a .zip file called SIU Lite-4.34.zip

When I unzipped it, I got a .zip file called SIU Lite-4.34.zip.cpgz

When I unzipped that, I got a file called SIU Lite-4.34(1).zip

This is an endless cycle. Would you happen to know why this is happening/how can I fix it? Thanks for your time!

damn, thanks, but there doesn't seem to be a way to use it on Mac, other than downloading other people's custom skins. Well, thanks anyway!

Uh, can I talk to you via PM or Steam on making a skin? I can't quite figure this out.
