RealConanette Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I changed one DDS file as a test texture (on Cullen) and he's there but I cannot communicate with him. I ran around further and the Skyhold merchants, Dennet, and the mounts in stable were gone (so was Blackwall, but Solas is around). I was following a tutorial and haven't found any troubleshooting on how or why changing one DDS (it was the diffuse map of head, imported with the same compression as the original) would cause all this trouble. If I load the same save file without this test mod, everything is fine (so it's not a corrupt save). Clearly I should have taken a left at Albuquerque... but if anyone knows what I did wrong or how to amend this, I'd love the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealConanette Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 I can hex edit to my heart's content and they work just fine (I've made like 80 in the past 2 weeks). I even tried another hex edit after this issue, wondering if my cache was corrupt- but loading that mod does not cause any issues. I'm using modmaker 1.1 and editing in GIMP. I just can't fathom how a character-specific head tex would make horses and other people disappear lol. I've tried re-making the mod it several times, so it wasn't a one-off.I defer to real computer people on this one. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sapphim Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 If you've been using 1.1.0.19 then you should try using 1.1.0.16 or 17 to save texture mods (downloads are here). Texture mods saved with later versions tend to cause issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealConanette Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 I'll give it a go! I was able to test-replace Cass' tex with no issues, and the wep texs I was working on. I wasn't even planning on modding Cullen but now it's a matter of the "why." I'll try a different version of the modmaker as suggested and see if it fixes the issue-- it would be good to use anyway if I could run into the problem again. Thanks so much!
