Hi folks, I'm starting to work with the toolset now and I created my first items. But they don't look exactly good and as I have seen many texture mods around, I wanted to ask if anyone could give me a detailed description on how you make textures for your items and how to apply them. Thank you very much!

Alright, I found this one: http://social.biowar...kinning_an_Item

I'll tell you when I have more questions.

well, I cant help u out in a detailed way, anyhow an easy soultion would be getting the hand to the "UV MAP" and then  through layer add back some texture on the already existent "grid".

Everyone uses that link and frankly it does not tell you how to edit a skin, it wimps out after the file extraction and does a rename...kinda cheesy ending to it.

i'm interested in retexturing too. i've found a lot of guides on how to access the various texture files and how to export and import them, but nothing on how to actually edit them to achieve the result you want. can anyone help with this?

Cant you edit the Textures, like it were normal pictures? You need a grafic editing program to open the DDS files. Normal diffuse or picture maps have a "d" appendix.

Paint away, and save it to DDS.

?

There are various converters that will convert a DDS to more common formats. There are also plugins for Photoshop and the like that will let those apps handle DDS natively. The nVidia plugin for PS is probably the most commonly used route - http://developer.nvi...ds_plugins.html While there, grab the normal map filter as well, as you'll need that for making custom normal maps.

Arne't Bio's normal map a bit...different?



I'm no stranger to making normal maps, but I heard Bio uses some inverted format type. Haven't gotten that far yet, sime I'm just in the process of making the greyscale map for my sword (from which I generate normal map using CrazyBump)

[DarthParametric]

Yes. Create a regular normal map, copy the red channel to the alpha channel and then copy the green channel to the red and blue channels.
