I've downloaded this mod from

And it looks awesome, but i'm having problems with the blade as shown below

Im no modder so I don't know how to change it to a blue blade as it should be, it -looks- like a file is missing but im not sure. I don't remember who made it and I can't seem to contact him but I know he has links to Holowan. Someone 'Elp me!

Greets Vy_Linvail! Welcome to the Forums! :)

 

Well.. it looks like it's missing a .txi file... that's why you're seeing the blade planes rather than a nice soft round blade...

 

you can easily create a .txi file by opening notepad (or other text editor) and typing this line:

 

blending additive

decal 1

 

Name the .txi the same as your blade color (just with the .txi extension instead of the .tga extension)... Make sure to save in ANSI (Save As...) rather than with a .txt suffix...

 

The only problem is I'm not sure what color the saber is using? Is it using a default game "blue".. or a custom color "blue"? Witout knowing which mod it is... I couldn't tell you for sure.

 

If you want to test it, name the .txi:

 

w_lsabreblue01.txi

 

and see if that helps. :)

I've never seen that one before bud. :confused: I've noticed some saber mods with really big blocky looking blades on them as well. Can that apply there as well? Just find their custom saber color names and make a like .txi file for em'?

 

I noticed several in Holowan Plugin were like that so would that help?

Well, generally all the .txi tends to do is soften and "round out" the blade planes (where they don't look like the rectangles).. if the color of the saber blades happen to be too big in diameter however, even with a .txi file... the blade will start to "edge"..

 

In those cases. you'll need to actually edit the color .tga itself and reduce it's diameter (or fiddle with the alpha channel) :)
