Editing Meshes

hi... i have been looking on the .dds and .c3 file threads and am getting into it :) but there is 1 problem... BadBoy mentions being able to edit the meshes so you can make 120 tro armour look like 120 archer armour.. or warrior armour. I am a 120+ female trojan, please may people tell me how to make the 120 trojan armour look like 120 warrior armour, i heard it was with armour.ini but dont understand :ops:

Please any1? :( i really wanna be able do this

Well, I don't want to look into it, but heres an easy thing, go to the your Conquer directory then c3/texture
or c3/textures, and find your armor, or which ever looks MOST similar, it should be only 1, so make sure it's your colour and type. Then go to the armor.ini and search for the name of the DDS file that is your armor. (eg:9990215, but this isn't the one). And then change it to another DDS that you want from the texture folder, but should be something relativly the same, such as an armor only no other crap. Well gl, I didnt have much time to explain it to u im not suppose to be on the comp!

The easiest way to find the texture you're looking for is through ItemType.dat.
Every item in ItemType.dat has a unique ID, and the ID is used to find the texture. The ID is stored as a 32 bit int (low endian), before the item name, so It's easy to find if you search through the ItemType file with a hex editor.

The only thing you need to do to make the ItemID into a texture ID is make the least significant digit equal to zero. Add a preceding digit for your character type (1, 2, 3, 4. small female, large female, small male, large male respectively.)

Open 3dtexture.ini, and search for your ID to find the file and path of the texture.

lol, but what you just said seems pretty hard for a noob, and well me, im not a good follower of instructions usually... and maybe making out the Id from the name and the type of body might be hard.

For the lvl 120's its way easier I say to just find the texture if u have a DDS plugin so u can see them as thumbnails.

Anyon e know WTH is going on with CO servers? they they IP ban me or are they just down?

hey uhhh i know this sounds nooby but what do i need to open dds files? i could never figure that out >_>

Try and download DirectX SDK. Or Irfan View. Google them.

Thanks ^_^

Thanks for the help guys :) uhm... + karma

Sry for double post... but i dont get it! :(


[Armor002132900]

Texture=002135700

heres the armour i wanna edit... what do i do? i want the warrior armour 002136700, please tell me what i shud edit to make it show

Old
[Armor002132900]
Mesh=002135000
Texture=002135700

New
[Armor002132900]
Mesh=002136000
Texture=002136700

OR
[Armor002132900]
Mesh=002135000
Texture=002136700

Try both of those.

Here is a lvl 120 Robe, and as you see I only changed the MESH, resulting only in the way it's being controlled. If you also change the DDS, you will get colour also.

:ops: :ops: [img]text2schild.php?smilienummer=1&text=MEH' border='0' alt='MEH' />
does not work... btw does it not work if its an edited file cuz my 002132900 is edited... but no dont work. maybe you could send me armour.ini with it alredy done?

OK, well gonna go eat for about 5-10 mins and when I come back ill edit it and send it to you.
