The files are in west_german. Just be sure to use the right kill_type in the attributes for the german faction, as they are different from the west_german.

Sorry, by attributes I meant those in the skin_pack category. There is a kill_type there that you can change. Just be sure to use the correct ones for german instead of west_german.

You can also use the wizard and include the files from the other faction, then go into instances/skin_pack/ and edit the .xml files to remove the instance_reference line that has the name of the faction you don't want.

But for German skins I've just been including all the vehicles from both factions and leaving the .xml alone. The result is a cross-faction skin that you can equip on either faction, and if you use a mod or scripted may that lets you get vehicles from the other faction, everything will have the same skin.

When you say files for the tanks, do you mean the skin files (.tga)?

If you have other skins working, there's no difference, you just refer to the new race and kill_type.

Make sure your icons are .png, that they are referred to in Attribute Editor correctly (ModIcons_*), and that you do not have any .rgt files anywhere.
