Texturing problems

[Apollyon]

I could do w/ some help (what a surprise ;)}

Im trying to make new bullet xbfs effectively. For instance I took the sonic wave xbf and replaced its texture w/ a custom one. I made sure all the filenames were the right size. Then three quarters of the way thru loading a skirmish it crashed and told me that my computer didnt have enuf memory (and it isnt nything to do w/ that btw). Can nyone help cos its really annoying. Is there a specific pallette to use or something? ???

Wow, retexturing the bullets, anyone else tried that?

Frodo, or nema, or someone might be able to help, so watch out for them.

Frodo, you remember my 255 0 255 texturing idea for units a while ago?

Ghosty_Square tried that, apparently it worked great, so we may see it in his mod.

[vidiware]

really cool...

Try to do it again..

maby u ADDED/REMOVED a byte in the xfb without knowing?

[Apollyon]

ok thx ill try it again but i still need some definite help.

Would that be the invisible units idea, Jacob?

BTW this will be for a completely new mod i am working on :)

[jacobdouds]

yea, I call it 255 0 255, as magnenta isn't exactly accurate.

aggghhhh

it refuses to work!

i can directly replace the texture of various bullets but when i try to create a new xaf/xbf then it crashes at startup >:(

any ideas?

The site in my sig might give you a fuller idea of what's going on, if you haven't already seen it. Note the formats of texture (and other) files.

[Apollyon]

yea nema i looked at that ages ago and it was a great help thx.

I think i might have got this problem sorted thx to help from frodo

[Frodo]
