How do I install a custom Skate 3 map?

It depends on where you play. On the recomp, drop the map's .big DLC pack in through the Level Loader. On RPCS3, replace the files in the game folder. On the Rust engine, open the .skate file. skatemods offers each map in every format it can convert to.

Every map page on skatemods lists the formats available for that map.

Before you start

  • Back up any game files you replace. On PS3 and RPCS3 a map usually overwrites an existing district or DLC slot.
  • Credit the author. If you share a video, link the map page.
  • If a map crashes on one platform but not another, report it from its map page so the conversion can be checked.
