How do i use skin mods in origins

[batknowitall]

are there any special things I need to do in the game to launch the skin mod? I use the tex mod to launch it but nothing happens?

You're probably running the game with your screen resolution needlessly high, and earlier TexMods were medium res models. Test 1280x720 res from inside the Graphic Options menu.

I tried it and it didn't really change anything. I even tried changing the dx11 and that didn't work

[JonoAMano]

DX11 is what I forgot to mention; early versions don't work with it. Did you restart your computer after both disabling DX11 and reducing screen resolution? If you disable DX11, do it from within the BmEngine.ini file, not from the Graphic Options panel:
1. Locate BmEngine.ini: Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Batman Arkham Origins \ SinglePlayer \ BMGame \ Config \ BmEngine.ini
2. Open BmEngine.ini with NotePad
3. Locate "AllowD3D10=False" and change False to True
4. Locate "AllowD3D11=True" and change True to False
5. Save file and restart computer

Which mod are you using, the clean BatSuit mod? Real Gotham mod?

[batknowitall]

a mod where he has a rainbow cape. It was made in 2017

A link would have been nice. I found a Rainbow Cape mod for Arkham City. As you know, that mod won't work on Arkham Origins since it's for a different game. You didn't use that mod, right?

Sorry for not posting the link. here it is https://www.nexusmods.com/batmanarkhamorigins/mods/59

No bug reports on that file yet, and it is for Origins. Did you install TexMod properly by renaming your "BatmanOrigins" .exe file to something like "BatmanOriginsOriginal" and naming the TexMod "BatmanOrigins" before you saved both files in the Binaries folder? Describe in full detail how you start the game in TexMod and select files, I'm checking to see if you missed something.

[batknowitall]

I didn't do that. I didn't know you had to do that with the exe file. When i did other mods for arkham city i just had to keep the detail graphics low and it worked.
