Lightsaber hilt texture?

[Toasty Fresh]

I've made a custom lightsaber using Achilles walkthrough, and I managed to get it working alright. I made a custom hilt texture for it (which is not very good) and now, I can apply this texture to every lightsaber in the game, but not my specific one.

These are the files for my lightsaber:

g_w_lghtsbr22.uti

g_w_sbrcrstl22.uti

iw_lghtsbr_022.tga (this is the icon)

iw_sbrcrstl_022.tga

w_lghtsbr_022.mdl

w_lsabreblue02.tga

w_lghtsbr_022.mdx

w_lsabreblue02.txi

w_Lghtsbr_002.tga (this is the hilt texture)

 

If I rename iw_lghtsbr_022.tga to iw_lghtsbr_001.tga, it changes the texture of every lightsaber in the game. If I change it to iw_lghtsbr_002.tga, nothing happens.

 

Thanks for the help in advance.

 

PS; This is my first post. If it should be posted elsewhere, please let me know.

You'll have to either Hex Edit your .mdl file, or use the MDLOps replacer function to make the saber model point to your new texture.

I'd rather hex edit it, so what would I need to change?

You could just apply your texture to it in Max, and then re-export it.
