nikethebike Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 1. Extract the DDS file you want to edit by using x-packer. 2. Open it in paint.NET 3. Make your changes. 4. Save as... DDS DXT1 Cluster fit Uniform 5. Make sure "Generate Mip Maps" has not been checked. 6. Press OK. 7. Open the original file in a hex editor. 8. Note down the size of the file or the offset at which the file ends. 9. Open your new file in a hex editor. 10. Pad the end of the new file with zeroes so that it has the exact same size (ends at same offset) as the original. 11. Inject the file using x-packer. 12. Done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathayus Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Thanks, I´ll give it a try. I did the zeroes part with freezing issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cparker33 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the tutorial! I have a quick question, I have edited some textures using paint.net but noticed during the game, the model looks more saturated. Basically it looks like the texture moves with the model causing a grainy look. Any solution to this? Is there a plugin I need to install or are there any other adjustments I need to make? I saved the dds file the way Nike mentioned in the first post. Thanks for your help Edited April 24, 2014 by cparker33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King87 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Is it a way to make renders in dds format without the blur effect i seem to get after saving it? It's like no transparency to be more clear. Just wondering. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Rooster Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Renders have to have an alpha layer. Make them with Photoshop and add an alpha channel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
