SKILL POINTS |
There are a total
of 6 SKILL POINTS that can be earned, and then assigned in
the game. For each skill point obtained you will also receive
a trophy. These trophies are then placed in the trophy room
and can be viewed there. The 6 earnable skill points are
as follows.
1. Reaching 10 hours of play time. 2. Reaching 100 points for the profile. (Reaching Master Hunter Rank) 3. Taking at least 1 Trophy Buck in each of the 5 Species. ( Mule Deer, White Tail, Black Tail, Axis, Roe) 4. Taking at least 1 RECORD BOOK Trophy Buck in each of the 5 Species. 5. Taking at least 1 WORLD RECORD Trophy Buck in each of the 5 Species. 6. Earning “GOLD SKINS” on ALL 14 Weapon types. A gold Skin is obtained by taking a certain number of bucks with that weapon type. The number of bucks seems to vary but is usually around 10 to 14 bucks. You will receive a message that you have obtained the Gold Skin for the weapon when you have taken the required number of bucks for that weapon type. This is perhaps the toughest, and least often obtained, of the 6 earnable skill points. The following information should help in understanding, and obtaining it. Gold Skins: First of all to find out what the 14 weapon types are, follow these steps. On the main DH2005 screen click on the GEAR button. Next, under WEAPONS click on CUSTOM. You should now have a window open that shows the “Weapons List”. On the left hand side of this window, about half way down, you will find a heading entitled “Type”. Under this heading are listed the 14 basic weapon types that you will need to earn “Gold Skins” for in order to obtain the Gold Skin Skill Point. If you would like to apply the Gold Skins to your weapons (Have them appear Gold in the game), open the ‘Weapons List” as described above. Select the Weapon you have earned the Gold Skin for on the list directly under the Weapons List heading. If you have set up Custom Weapons there may be more than one Weapon of that type available. Select the one you wish to apply the Gold Skin to. Now go to the bottom box under “Skins”, this will be the one that looks like a round ball. This is the skin selector for the metal parts of the weapon such as the barrel, receiver, etc. Click on the arrows under the ball until you get the one with the Gold coloring. This will only be available if you have earned the Gold Skin for the selected weapon type. You can now close the Weapons List and return to the game. The Weapon should now appear with Gold Skin on all metal areas. Note: You do not need to apply the Gold Skins in order to receive the Gold Skin Skill Point. You only need to earn all 14 of them. One final bit of information on the Gold Skins; Once you have earned all 14 Gold Skins for a profile, and the Gold Skin Skill Point, you generally need only earn 3 or 4 Gold Skins on additional profiles in order for them to all kick in and for the Skill Point to be received on the new profile. I have no idea how or why the game does this but I am glad it does, as it is indeed a hard one to earn.
