Drakous79 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Better would be to insert 15 missing textures from EU's to EW's CharTextures.tfc and rewrite data sizes and tfc file offsets in Soldier_Female(Armor)_SF.upk. I hope we can append textures in this fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakous79 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) It is something new for me too. I've been browsing through Soldier_FemaleKevlar_SF.upk and found an entry PR_ReproportionMale2Female :smile: To unlink textures from male, change names inside Soldier_FemaleKevlar_SF.upk (with HxD or PatcherGUI):CHH_Lv1MedMale_MOD to CHH_Lv1MedFeme_MODMInst_Lv1MedMale1 to MInst_Lv1MedFeme1You should be able to map different textures to female kevlar with Texmod after the change. My Texmod stopped working with the most helpful error message in the world of computers "S..t Happened ... D'OH". Turning of antivirus didn't help. So I had to test textures without Texmod. http://i.imgur.com/LejFZVe.jpg Weapon scaling is weird. Everything is ok on loadout screen, but here her left hand isn't holding the gun properly.

dubiousintent Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Files with "_SF" in their name come from EW. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wghost81 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) BTW, SF means "Seek Free",if I'm not mistaken. Less modding possibilities with those. Edited January 15, 2014 by wghost81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakous79 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 AlyAly EW upk :) In EU, females have their own textures. wghost why less possibilities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wghost81 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Drakous79, something about objects order for seek free package loading. Here, for example. I haven't looked at this closely, but keep in mind, that those packages can be potential sources of trouble. :smile: Edited January 15, 2014 by wghost81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakous79 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Thanks for the link. So SF is clever way to load less and faster? This part interested me:Textures usually don't have their payload / bulk data duplicated but rather only have the UObject data and the lowest miplevels be put into the seek free package and have the rest streamed in via the texture streaming code. For weapons and maybe all models, textures of 64x64 size and lower are embedded in upks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wghost81 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 So SF is clever way to load less and faster?As I understand, it's a way to load big files (like textures) faster from low-speed media, like DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
