Not to be confused with WiseSkins.

Many of the models in the Source SDK contain more than one skin.

If you aren’t familiar with skins think of them as clothing. A skin for a door for example can change the entire appearance and color of the door. You change the skin of a model in Hammer in the properties. Select the model and press Alt+↵ Enter or double-click on it in the 3D view port.

Here’s an example of a rock with multiple skins: models\props_wasteland\rockgranite01a.mdl. Changing the default “0” to “1” or “2” would result in the three rocks shown below.

Not all models have multiple skins. A lot do though.
