In the original TSL appearance.2da file, the mandalorians did not have an entry for "envmaptexture". This means that anything transparent would just be see-through in-game. By putting "CM_Baremetal" in that "envmaptexture&quo...  [Read More]

By the way, you don't want to "erase" areas you want to glow (or be otherwise affected by environment maps), you need to set up an alpha channel that dictates transparency in the appropriate areas. You'll need to experiment to find the most...  [Read More]

erase texture? Yes, open up your .tga and literally erase the part that you want to glow. The higher the opacity, the brighter it will glow. Look at the screens here (http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=207546). The two glowy swords are al...  [Read More]

Lol :lol: Just erase the part that you want to glow on your skin. Then, make a file in notepad called "envmaptexture CM_Bright" and save it as "yourskinname.txi". See how that works for you....  [Read More]

:xp: Happens to the best of us! The problem is that kotor tool freaks out when you re-open a .utc that you placed a custom .2da line in for some reason. What happens is that you open it, it'll give you an error message and the "appearance"...  [Read More]

You can simply open the .utc using kotor tool. Go to open>gff file>yourfilename and BOOM. You can open your .utc for editing. Edit: The only problem with this is when your .utc is referencing a custom .2da line. If that's your problem I have a...  [Read More]

Yeah for some reason this never works. Try opening up the .utc in kotor tool and either: If it is an existing item, drag it onto the equipment slot from the dropdown menu on the left. Or, if it's a custom item, double click the equipment slot and ent...  [Read More]

Geez Nal hutta, do you want us all to die from the stink? Lol. But to be serious that might be hard to do as a reskin, so we would probally have to do a newly modeled area. I have no clue about that so you would have to find someone to do that. Doub...  [Read More]

You probably shouldn't bump a three year old thread to ask something that isn't really relevant to the thread at all. But yeah you can. I'm not sure why you can't tell what head you're using as it says which one it is in the window on the right. If...  [Read More]
