I changed the texture's size in gimp, that's because it's only 428 bite. And yes, I send soon my files, so you can see the changes in the files, to see if you have any ideas. I did it with our popular hex editor, Hxd .
Update: I added 2 new colors of the new Andalusians, that weren’t in the program before, and the GH46 (new andalusian) texture in my UV layouts folder work with them! So not my file editing in the hex editor is the problem luckily.. And here is my files, like I promised: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

I'm working on some other features that may get released later, but since many people appear to have problems getting the models, I figured that I should publish a preview version. It converts everything to Collada DAE files that can imported into Blender without issues. I will release the source code later, but there are a lot of crap to clean up first.

It can be downloaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

To run it, you first need to install the .NET 6 Desktop Runtime. from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/down ... .0/runtime

Looks like this:

I don't think so... in any case, what I know is that you have to use a hexadecimal editor and that simply replacing the game data does not work (the game crashes)
(sorry for my bad english, it's not my principal language lol)

I just need to know if you're aware of any problems like this, and if I can be certain that it's safe?

The files that I have shared are safe to run. What anti-virus program are you using? My tools reads and writes a large number of files and creates a lot of sub processes during the conversion, this could probably been seen as "suspicious" by some security programs.

Well, that depends on how good are your skills with game modding. If you can use quickbms and crunch
without issues then it should be easy.

Let's say you have already extracted DDS texture from the game using information from this topic.
Now you need to import file without crashing the game, so your steps should look
probably something like this:

1. Edit your DDS texture in GIMP
2. Convert DDS to CRN with crunch_unity
3. Convert CRN texture to TGA/PTE with my script (use reimport mode)
4. Pack data to CSA archive using script from aluigi (use reimport mode) https://aluigi.altervista.org/bms/star_ ... online.bms
5. Launch the game and test your changes

And in theory it should work now.

Reimport mode is just a functionality of quickbms to import files back to archives.
