Title: texture problem with shoulders
Post by: Serifaz on December 29, 2011, 09:59:08 pm

Hey all :) I am trying to setup a texture in the dbcs for custom shoulders...
I am using Vel's custom armor set, and for kicks I wanted to see if I could make a custom display id for the armor and weapons. I have done ok so far, but all I can get to work on the shoulders is the bag icon,
and the model, but the texture just shows up green...
I don't think this is a texture problem because vel had it working.
I do think its a dbc problem... but as far as I know I put in all the correct info.
just to be sure what fields am I suppose to put the texture in for the shoulders?

As far as I can remember for Shoulders need two textures (L and R) (90% of cases it is the same texture).

H green...

This means one of two:
wrong patch to BLP
wrong BLP format (see below)

It is necessary that the texture is located at:
... objectcomponents  shoulder  ...

Texture should be RGB (256 index will not work)
Texture should be a multiple of size
16
32
64
128
256
512
1024 e.t.c

I'm having trouble understanding... sorry,
what rows should I put the textures in for right and left?

yellow rows, first yellow row is for first model(it means that one displayid can use 2 different models wich use different textures)

Try MyDBCEdit from source section. It can clean handle all DBCs.

ok... I think this is getting more complicated than it needs to...
What rows in taliis should I put the texture / textures in?

I think you need put texture name to 4 and 5 rows if the first row not the #0
