Downloaded a 3d skin for chems' website, but all the 3d aspects are red

Ok so i downlaoded the mountaneer skin for the UDES 03 from chems's website he put up to share his skins, i wanted some of them but i've never used tank exported so maybe i jsut did something wrong, but the rendered, jsut with all 3d aspects painted in a bright red, any clues on how i fix this?
To put it clear he's the comparison of how it should be (taken from the website itself).
So the red textures means the xml files either arent pulling the right textures, or the textures for the 3d skin aren't in actual mod file
they are fbx files, anything to do with that or any guesses on how to solve this? but thanks for addressing it
OK...
Grab the 3D and open it. the WOTMOD file.
In side you will see a vehiches folder. Drag and drop that in the the res_mods in the current game version folder.
This is the folder on my machine : C:\Games\World_of_Tanks_NA\res_mods\1.21.1.1
Run the game and see if it shows the skins correctly.
TE will load the tank if its found in the res_mods path.
This is what I loaded into TE after dragging vehicles to the res_mods folder.
Let me know if this works.
The reason this works is because there are skin paths in the visual file that are not in the normal model.
Also there is a folder with custom textures. With out these, WOT is going to show red because it can't find the textures.
