Title: [TOOL] blp-png png-blp
Post by: akriso on January 05, 2013, 04:23:15 pm
it became necessary to repaint the BLP file. Using standard console converter BLP-png png-BLP in the game but ..... BLP file does not appear ... just green .... changed to test 3 of 4 BLP files and checked the result shows only the file that has not changed ...

I apologize for my English  :(

please give a normal program for converting ( 3.3.5а )

green texture means that the texture file is missing.

I would guess that the path to the blp file in the m2 file is wrong.

It only mans that the file is missing or corrupt. As in this case the file seems to have been replaced, most likely the conversion from png to blp failed and a different converter should be used.

Could you give a converter to use? I'm probably not the one used ...

The PNG one was usually my choice and I never had problems with it.

Which means you did something wrong within the steps;
Possibly wrong naming. Try a program like BLP Laboratory and see if it loads up. As a note (if you use BLPL), make sure that all the layers work properly.

It happend to me some time ago. Normal BLP files must be in RGB format, BUT character skins and clothes must be in indexed color format. If they are in RGB, they will appear in green. When you convert a BLP file with that program, it changes it to RGB.
How to change from RGB to Indexed color in photoshop:
Image-->Mode-->Indexed color.

Then, convert it to BLP and it will work :)

Note for other users,

not every converter can do Indexed Colors. I posted one somewhere on here - use search if your picture continues to break.
