Reskin/ Override Question?
« on: July 17, 2015, 02:56:25 pm »


               

I’m using Llyra- Optional Content which is an override/reskin of the standard tilesets.  It reskins the standard city so the buildings and walls have the TNO look. That said I would like to use Sen’s Seasonal Workshop for a few areas but the buildings are a lot darker than TNO. So what would I need to do to have Llyra – Optional Content override/reskin Sen’s Seasonal Workshop? They look to be the same textures just one is a lot darker color.I’m using Llyra- Optional Content which is an override/reskin of the standard tilesets.  It reskins the standard city so the buildings and walls have the TNO look.

Reskin/ Override Question?

overrides and patch HAKs can not reskin HAKs associated with a module.


 


For what it is worth, the city override that I used (in that Llyra patch hak) were put together by _six. So you can get the originals there if you want to go to the source.


 


 


what Sen probably did is renamed the textures and made them darker. if you extracted his textures, you would have the list of file names and a visual reference for which is which. This would help you assemble a new hak on top of which has textures to override Sen's. This would includes six's textures renamed to match sen's textures. You will also need to make sure that the textures in your HAK include DDS versions s that the override takes, and both TGA and DDS can be useful for some graphics cards. I probably have DDS versions in the patch HAK contents if _six didn't do this.

Thanks Henesua I did open up both haks and took a look at them but I can tell this is going to take some time to do. So I guess I will put this on the back burner for now since I can still build the areas and reskin it later.
