A quick tut to get modding in DBC

[aabretz]

you have to name the file as one of the existing files in the actual texture folder,

For ex: if its a bat sponsor,
name it as parmark_col.dds and place it in the sponsors folder in my games.As of now you can only replace existing ones not add.

LMFAO so thats where i been going wrong lol thank you.

I dont know what to put as my source? I tried the H:dbc textures thing but it says invalid file etc...

 

[grkrama]

the place where dbc texture folder you have extracted should be put as source.

You guys using photoshop cs6 or cc. My cc not working that great with opening the .dds files.

 

[grkrama]

have you installed the nvidia dds plugin

 

[Padda]

Yes but the textures looks very weird. As if it is distorted

 

[MattW]

I used the XnView shell extension, converted all the DDS files in the textures package to png, edited those PNGs and then converted them to DDS using the DDSConverter.

Is there any other photo editor recommended than Photoshop?

 

[grkrama]

photoshop alternatives paint.net does most of essential stuff that PS, GIMP if you can get around to working with it you can do quite a bit.
