[bugsyboy]

Does anybody know whats the right way to save the mask1.dds ,i try all my option and i just cant get the right size.i think i need to edit that file because the old logo is still showing under my new logo and its messing up my mod

[Miztah Raza]

No, you have to edit the normal.dds if you want to get rid of the logo. The mask1.dds is for superstar threads.

[IamCrazyPT]

so if i edit the mask1 i can go in-game and change the superstars threads?

Yea.

[IamCrazyPT]

Yea.

have you ever done that?

[Miztah Raza]

have you ever done that?

Yes, I've fucking done that. Why don't you go do it yourself and try it, instead of asking me these questions.

[IamCrazyPT]

Yes, I've fucking done that. Why don't you go do it yourself and try it, instead of asking me these questions.

You have to modify the alpha channel of the normal too sometimes.

isnt that just to get the same size

[Miztah Raza]

No! You edit the texture in the color.dds, and then, to remove any logos that are showing underneath, you edit the alpha channel of the normal.dds.

I believe the problem he may have, is using Paint.NET instead of Photoshop. I've noticed when trying Paint.NET to help with modifying textures in KOC2, that it is better for things like indexed color images, but sucks with other things, one of them being, you can't even see the channels in the program, like you can in Photoshop. I bet that's the problem, using Paint.NET instead of Photoshop. I've even gone to their forums and read around a bit, and the developers of Paint.NET won't even acknowledge the existence of an Alpha Channel, and treat it like it was Bigfoot. I can't remember their exact words, but they claim there is no such thing as an Alpha Channel, which is pretty funny, considering that colors are based on ARGB values in 32-bit images. Without an Alpha Channel, there wouldn't be any transparent textures or any sort of transparency, and every image would be in 24-bit color mode. So yeah, you can't even show the channels in an image in Paint.NET, and I think everybody having problems like this, must be using it, instead of Photoshop like they should be using. Just my two cents on the matter.

If he's using Paint.NET, then he needs to be introduced to something called ThePirateBay.
