Creating your own custom playing cards

Recommended Posts

I was messing around with a couple of the caravan/casino playing card mods this past weekend, and after not being to thrilled with what I got (the only two I really like both had the numbers/suits in one corner and it made it impossible to see how the opponents stack of played cards was set up for using the Jack or King to mess their stacks up) I decided I wanted to make my own custom replacements. However after much searching, I find I am no closer to understanding how to do this. It seems to me it would just be a simple image swap but I can't find where to do that in the geck or in any nice guides heheh. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Is it not worth the trouble? LOL

 

Lemme know!

it's pretty simple, yet at the same time it's time-consuming. It took me about to 2 hours to resize and convert some images into my playing cards for New Vegas. You need a program called paint.net it's a free program, google it. After you get the program I would suggest you use the playing cards mod that you already downloaded as an example to follow by. Basically you just convert images into .dds format and place them in the right folders in your game directory's data file in the Textures folder. You don't need the geck to do this. I know I'm pretty vague on telling you what to do, but you should get the hang of it once you start it's pretty easy.

OK got my deck finished and I have a question about the common decks (the cards with the plain red backs).

 

now in the casino's, the replacements I made all work flawlessly, however in the Caravan deck, only the A & Face-cards are loading all of the number cards and jokers are taking the card back from "deckb" ( the common deck) as its called but the card face from the tops deck (deckt). Anyone have any idea why? Is there any way I can fix it?
