Harkonna Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 How 2? i don't make mods myself, and it is said 2 be inpossible, but i don't think what u call a mod is a mod when the unit's have no new skins... ofcours u can use some old skins, but not all... ::) This can NOT be inpossible... i created a mod for an other game nd i sucseeded. but 2 come back on what i just say, i have seen nema fakei's mod for tiberian sun to dune, and with just 3 words i can Explane it : IT JUST RULES New models, colors changed and more, only 2 bad the ground still is the same, but u can't have everything in a mod. i just want 2 say 3 things: Nema fakei, keep up the good work, find out how 2 get skins changed, and, tibsun and emperor have the same creators, if u can change units from tibsun, it must be possible 2 do the same to emperor... maybe the source codes are even the same! u never know...H A R K O N N A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 it's not that hard to change textures for emperor. You just can't change the shapes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 I know they're both WW.. but they use different graphics engines. The xbfs (models) are vertex-and-texture-based models, not voxel-based ones... a converter is very difficult. But there is an interesting file in 3ddata0001.rfh, called 'I_abar.tga' - it's the d2k atreides barracks!But the engine is completely new.I'll try to post up a retexturing tutorial this weekend...

nemafakei Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 There are already people working on changing these vertices and stuff. We can only wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 but harkonna there is a way. All you have to do is open them up in MGI PhotoSuite, Photoshop, PSP, MS Photo Editor, or Illustrator, then change the colors/skins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
