I'm no fan of tex-mod so far. so wanted to make the reskins direktly... I extracted the textures of the katana I swapped for the broadsword and edtited the .dds file in photoshop. so far so well known and all right .. but.. how do I get the 4 .dds's back into one .tex-file so I can recreate the broadsword.big-file that I have to include in the streamedassets.big to get the changed skin ingame? any help would be highly apreciated

Sadly we can't do it directly yet Cerberrus. The problem is we can't get them from DDS back into .BCTWhen you extract the .TEX after naming it to .BIG, then extract it with Gibbed's EXE, you'll see raw .BCT textures. Basically we need a script that can convert BCT - > DDS, and DDS -> BCT I'll see if I can get a few people I know interested in making this for us

thx wiz. that would be awesome.
@ dany25:
yeah I know about that but I'm afraid my knowledge about headers and getting them ends by the point that I know, that I need a header-file to convert dds's to other file-formats somehow..
could you possibly do another step-by-step about the process of getting the header into the modded dds-file?

1. extract your .tex file with quickbms dds 2. extract your .tex file with gibbed's tools 3. edit your dds file 4. copy the header from the original file (extracted with Gibbed's) 5. select the start of the header of your dds file 6. paste the header (Gibbed's) into your dds file and save 7. remove the .dds extension Attachments:

you can have strange bug with normals maps in game (i suppose this files (normal maps...) need to be edited too)
