Iwangor Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 This mornig I create this image...http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/9898/tsuguriprovahk0.jpg but I know that is a simple jpg... and that the image had to change color if I change options of Pipboy... so what type of file is this? How I can extract a file to modify? with a plugin is possible modify and save this type of file with photoshop? The idea is to replace the new weapons and similar things in Pipboy. Don't Think this is cool see a new sword and in pipboy's image the same shikebab image... this image is a sort of interpretation of Tsuguri sword... a sword that we can find in nexus archives... sorry for this image is random and the idea is cracy... however if someone give me a possibility to create this icons maybe we can update some cool mod withs new images for pipboy comments, ideas and help pls and sorry for my trash english :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you need to do is use FOMM or FO3Edit and change the item's ICON and MICO URLs to match your texture file. Basically, the URLs in the ICON and MICO properties are like so: Interface\Icons\PipboyImages\Weapons\weapons_shiskebab.ddsChange the path to point to your texture like this: CoolSword\Icons\CoolSword.dds Save the .ESP file and load it up when you start Fallout 3. Viola, your new icon is in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwangor Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 Oki is simple to change the texture... but I need to understand how find the original images from Fallout 3...For example... I need to modify the baseball bat texture to make the new cool weapon texture... I found a plugin that load and save files in dds... so I think is simple modify the file and add the new particulars but I need the original file to make the Tsuguri sword skin for Pipboy... the same is for laser sword, for example... I can modify the chinese sword image... but I always need the original dds... How can I take this file? Thanks for any answer and Thanks for the info to add the new texture :) P.S. If I can really modify this files... maybe I can collaborate to add these new images for pipboy if someone need for a lot of mods ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The image itself is pure white, yes, but you need to look at the alpha layer. That's the actual image you see in your PipBoy. Also, if you make an all-white alpha layer, then you can use the regular image layer to design something but it may not look right inside the PipBoy due to all the texture overlays and shaders that the designers used.

Iwangor Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 ah... and if I want to reproduce the alpha layer how I have to do with photoshop or another specific program?Make the New image for pipboy is easy... but If I can't create this image that I see as all white but in alpha is another image is a problem... :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
