1.) Ok so first thing we have to do is get a camo.

2.) Open up 7Zip and go to the folder where you saved mw2 go into it until you reach Main>IW_07.iwd>Images> Then pick a camo
(All Camo's are named weapon_camo_X.iwi

3.) Drag it into the "OLD" folder in the tools . You can close 7Zip now

4. Now open the converter folder as well so have both open (Old and converter)

5.) Drag the camo ontop of IWI_X_DDS.exe it should create a .dds file in the OLD folder. Drag that into the NEW folder

6. Now to open it in photoshop you have to install a plugin go to .DDS plugin and run the .exe and follow the setup guide.

7. Open photoshop and open the .dds in the NEW folder you should see our camo Claps.

8. Edit it to your liking (Be creative)

9. Now save it as a .DDS file in the new folder and overwrite the original unedited one with it! When you close photoshop if it prompts you to save don't press NO

10. Now open up converters and New again and drag the NEW camo onto DDS2IWI

11. The iwi will be in the New folder and you can delete the .dds now

12. Open up HxD and open The new and old folder .iwi files REMEMBER WHICH ONE IS WHICH!

13. Go to the old one and copy the first 2 lines then go to the new one and highlite the top two lines and press CTRL + V
