I have a reskin I want to do but im not sure ow to do it, I want to reskin the reborn model with other in-game textures, its easy to do on lugor via the remap cmd. How would I go about doing this?

[Zabuza]

Easy. Say we have two arbitrary models rainbow_cat and inverse_rainbow_dog. We want rainbow_cat to look like inverse_rainbow_dog. Specifically, for the luls, we want rainbow_cat's torso to look like inverse_rainbow_dog's torso.

Here are the textures:

Code: Select all

textures/*/rainbow_cat_torso.jpeg

Code: Select all

textures/*/inverse_rainbow_dog_torso.jpeg

Simply rename

Code: Select all

textures/*/inverse_rainbow_dog_torso.jpeg

to

Code: Select all

textures/*/rainbow_cat_torso.jpeg

and replace it in rainbow_cat texture directory.

(On school PC atm, can't give a more direct example)

So your talking about using pakscape and opening the skin to edit the .skin file to retexture the skin to look how I want it to look.

why didnt I think of that...........

Thanks

No. Yes, you use can use pakscape. What I'm saying is taking the second texture, copying it to your desktop, renaming it to the first texture, then sticking it in the first textures directory. You do not need to edit the .skin .

I will extremely strongly suggest not editing the assets .pk3 files though. If you want to use Zab's crude method, then create a new pk3 (zip) with the files you want in it with the names you want. Even still, I would be doing it via the .skin file, its a cleaner approach with no possibility of causing unexpected problems (just because a texture is used in a skin doesn't mean it isn't used elsewhere) and this would also go in a new pk3.

[Alduin]

Yeah I was going to copy the reborn and _humanoid folders from the pk3 and pasting into a "base" folder on my desktop to later save it as a pk3 so i'm going the safer route not to mess anything up but my skin.

[Alduin]

ok, well, some how I managed to mess something up...... lol

i finnished the skin and was testing it out in-game and when i tried the JA+ moves it went all spread eagle on me :p not sure what i did wrong....

If you send me the pk3, I could look at it.
