FaR2sToNeD Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) Hello, I finally decided to try my hand at retexturing so I thought I should check with a friend to see how it looks. He took a steam screenshot for me (which he's removed now unfortunitly) and the whole harness (on his PC) is totally black with no detail, from what he can tell the mesh is still there though because it has the accents and ridges of the harness. The file itself is [link removed] if anyone wants to try it for me. Any ideas are greatly appreciated, I've spent quite a while on it already but don't really want to finish it until I know it works on other people's computers. The texture has been enlarged to 1024x1024 and saves with ARGB 8bpp | 256 colours + alpha palette. Here's what I've done so far, if anyone can test and compare (maybe post a screenie) there's a Kudos in it for you :) http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t133/BingoMorris/TESV2011-12-1723-33-28-37.jpghttp://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t133/BingoMorris/TESV2011-12-1723-33-20-84.jpghttp://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t133/BingoMorris/TESV2011-12-1723-33-14-35.jpghttp://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t133/BingoMorris/TESV2011-12-1723-33-04-69.jpg Edited December 18, 2011 by BingoMorris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthsloth74 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Okay I've just opened this in Photoshop what you've done is save it as indexed colour rather than RGB and as a result you've got a completely empty dds texture. I do hope you've kept the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
