Heinekn Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Hey... I know very little about modifying items in the game, other than being able to do some simple changes to some of the .dds files. What i would like to do is take a piece of armor, and "cut away" parts. I like some of the armor designs, but some are kinda over-done with wings, flaps, and metal. I would like to cut away some of the excesses. I can work with Photoshop well to do my .dds file work...but have no idea what software might be needed to do what I would like to do. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks... Heinekn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom7356 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Ask the creator of "Lore friendly armor pack", a mod full of armor that seems to be like what you are trying to do. Maybe he can point you in the right direction. Hope that helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaptTorbjorn Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) To edit it out so it's not seen? For that you need to go and open up that armor's texture file with something that can edit DDS files (I use Photoshop cs3 with the Nvidia DDS plugin, and then black out the alpha channel of the area you don't want to be textured.

huntsman2310 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Easy. You just edit the mesh. If you just delete the parts of the texture that cover that part, the actual mesh itself (the physical object itself.) would be shown. All you need to do is go into Blender or 3DS max, and delete the faces that make up that part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
