I Can Do This Now

 

But I'll Post How To Do It For GreyStone

 

*Open The .MDL File You Want To Edit In Your Hex Editor.

 

*Find The Texture Names In The File (This Is Easier If Your Editor Is In Text Mode)

 

*Change The Texture Name:

 

eg. If You Are Working With a Lightsaber And The Texture Already Used By The Model Is w_lsabrered01 and your custom texture is w_lsabreyelo02 Just Change The Texture Name n The File Already To The One you Need!

 

*Also Search The Whole Of he Fil For Texture Name As There Are Normally Multiple Instances Of Fil Names That Need To Be Changed.

 

Hope That Clears Things Up For You GreyStone!

You know you guys could also try to search for something first instead of just starting a new thread.

 

However DarthDingDong I am glad that you figured it out. but you might still want to search for what others have posted regarding hex editing models.

The Search Function Wasn't Working When I Posted The Thread

 

I Did Try Searching Myself But To No Avail

 

I Don't Normally Post a New thread If There Is An Alternative
