Lorden Darkblade Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Ok, I created an armor for example and I want that the texture be a special one that I also created. How do I do that? I has to be a special item that does not erase or replace any original armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do I do that? I has to be a special item that does not erase or replace any original armor. In the item property file (.uti) there is a field labeled ModelVariation. Change this number to whatever number you assigned to the texture file (.tga), then copy and paste both files (plus any other applicable files such as mdl/mdx) into the Override folder. This should fix you right up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorden Darkblade Posted June 15, 2004 Author Share Posted June 15, 2004 Well I looked into the armor and didnt found that label. Any other place it would be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be TextureVariation (or Variable). I'm at work right now so I don't have KT or GFF Editor available for reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorden Darkblade Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 GFF Editor. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Originally posted by ReLoaD2K GFF Editor. Why? All you should have to do is click on the line to highlight it and then change the number in the text box on the right (in the Basic Field Data window). I can't imagine why it wouldn't work for you, but feel free to email the file to me if you are unable to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorden Darkblade Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 Well then PM me with your email. This is what I do, I highlight the thing then I put the name there but when I click somewhere else oto check the number is back! If you still have any ideas please or if you prefer to see the file just PM me with your email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorden Darkblade Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 What number? I thought I had to put the name of the tga there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Originally posted by ReLoaD2K What number? I thought I had to put the name of the tga there. The model (or texture) variation number. For instance the file name for blue lightsaber model is w_lghtsbr_001.mdl/mdx. If you were making a custom saber and renamed this file w_lghtsbr_099.mdl/mdx, you would need to change the modelvariation number (in the .uti) from 1 to 99. Similar concept with armor skins, except that the line is labeled TextureVar instead of modelvariation. So if you wanted create a new texture for the brown jedi robe (PMBI01), that does not replace the current file, you'd create your texture and assign it a unique number (texture variation). Then you would have to extract a .uti file for the robe, change the Tag and TemplateResRef (to make it a unique item), and then change the TexureVar to the unique number that you created for your new texture so that the game knows what skin to put on the model when used. I hope that all makes sense. Let me know if you need anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
