Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Those renders of yours are most impressive and inspiring! Myself, I've been so obsessed with the matter of understanding SWTOR's materials system that I haven't tried building a proper scene yet and am just fighting the whole thing to get my player characters to look right. It doesn't help that I'm ...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Does anybody know of any forum/thread outside Xentax where actual usage of SWTOR's texture files in packages such as Blender is discussed? Out of this thread I've figured out most of what each type of texture (_d, _n, _m, etc.) and its channels do, but I still have holes in my knowledge (say, how to...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

…since BioWare has yet to release the music that was made for Ossus, I decided to just try and put one together myself. But, I could use some help/pointers, as I really don't want to just sit on Ossus or Dantooine and record only the music (I did that on Quesh and Ilum, and it was not fun). So, I a...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Sorry, I meant some way to extract only the new items in your latest file instead of just everything all over again. I'm guessing I could try finding some utility that shows the differences between your latest hash file and the one before it, and feed the result to EasyMyp. (It wouldn't be a problem...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Hashes file updated to PTS 6.0.0 #4 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VmoAOY9EM12BV5qeWkiAHaef6nDR0XBT?usp=sharing Thank you! A question if it isn't a bother: Could you point me to some guide about how to have EasyMyp extract only the difference between a new hash file and a previous one? I u...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Noesis to the rescue (but how?)! Using Noesis' SWTOR plugin's texture loading functionality (which I discovered a couple of weeks ago by watching RealymanLP's YouTube tutorial… in German, a language I don't understand. Luckily, the involved steps were quite clear in the video anyway) I tried preview...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

The Outbreak Response Lightsaber exists at TORCommunity's 3D model viewer as Lightsaber Style 40. You can check it here , too. It's fully textured in the viewer, so I assume the saber has to be listed somewhere in the game's XML files including model and texture references. Interesting: Searching th...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

I found it by looking at the models: It's the saber_high16_a02_v02 one. Finding the textures will be more difficult. They could be the saber_high04_a01_v01 ones: The normals map seems to have extra channel information that looks like corresponding to the glowy bits. Edit: nope, they don't match. I'l...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

A question of my own: Has anybody constructed an Outbreak Response Lightsaber (the one sold by the Rakghoul Event vendor)? Sadly, Jedipedia has no Model IDs for this one. I'm trying to see if this lightsaber is just like some other one with just some glowy textures added.

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Yeah :( . Some version of this tool and the scripts posted in that original thread work with the character selector and cutscenes, but only for the female characters. I don't know what the trick is to make it work with male ones yet.

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Fantastic! The shininess problem could be because of other texture files associated to every model. The ones ending with a "_d.dds" hold the colors of the model, but there are others: • The ones ending in "_s.dds" hold the way the parts of the models shine. • The ones ending in &...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

ZeroGravitas have you ever "played" with dds? i downloaded plugin for photoshop - edit dds, but dunno what option i need to choose when save. I'm afraid not :( I've found a couple of free apps that read and convert .dds, too. Perhaps, when previewing the original .dds, they might show inf...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

I'm as much of a noob myself, so no worries :) I see from your posts that this reference number comes from the XML block for Darth Scotia's chest. Sadly, those long Ids at the head of those blocks never seem to be useful for anything when searching for parts: At least I've never found matches for th...
