Mostly I enjoy making textures for games, and don't really care to learn modelling or too much about the Toolset right now, so I have a few questions, and would love it anyone knowledgable could either answer them or point me to a relevant tutorial. Here's pretty much what I want to know:1) - Assuming I want to use my own textures on models that already exist in the game (as seperate items though; I don't want to change the texture of existing items but rather re-use the models for new items), what tools would I need?
2) - How do I take a model from the game and add my own texture to it?
3) - How do I add my copy of that model (with a new texture) back into the game, either to specific vendors/chests or through random placement all through the game?
4) - How are textures stored? i.e. What format are they? Are the diffuse/normal/etc maps stored as layers or seperate files?
5) - How would I then distribute my mod? I understand I upload it to a site like DAONexus, but I don't know anythig about the folder structure of Dragon Age yet.
Essentially I want be able to take any item I see in the game, change it's texture to something I like, and then add that as a seperate item back into the game so that both the original item and my new one exist in the game. I will be extremely grateful if anyone can help me reach this goal, and look forward to being a part of this modding community!
