Kayleighthorpe Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Hi there, Basically, I am trying to grasp how to create a custom character for myself. Basically what I have done is downloaded a custom character mod (the Clementine one), and I have converted the character's .tex file to a .png to add a scribble to her forehead. I then changed the .png back into a .tex file using the converter and put it back in the zip. so, theoretically Clementine should be running around my screen with a scribble on her head. This is not the case however, as she is instead completely invisible now. I am unsure what I am doing wrong here, I just wanted to edit an existing mod so I could see how it transfer into the game, then I was going to try my hand at starting to make a character from scratch. Attached is my editted Clementine .zip folder. If someone could point me in the right direction I would be very greatful.

Mobbstar Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Did you make sure to use the right settings when creating the TEX? 2D and DXT5?

Kayleighthorpe Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 I have been doing yes. Just tried it again with TexCreator. Same issue. I should mention I am working on a Mac. I have used Winery to get the TexTools working on the Mac computer. I am also trying to do this using the ktech converter in terminal. Both methods produce the same issue. I have tried changing the images from tex to png and vice versa to make sure nothing went corrupt and everything seems to be converting correctly. I'm really stumped.

Auth Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I dunno, a completely invisible character sounds pretty cool.

Kayleighthorpe Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Haha yeah look at her go (attached) I noticed that Ktech had more options, so I am definately using the correct type and compression now. The issue remains. I've tried it with a few different mods now and the result is always the same. Vanishing man!

Kayleighthorpe Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Okay so I worked out the issue this morning. For some reason if I used my Mac's built in unarchiver to .zip up the files, it didn't work. I did the exact same thing using 'Betterzip' and it worked like a charm! I'm going to write up a tutorial on how I did everything on the Mac, since it's a little different from most other users. Just in case it helps anyone. Thanks for the help offered here guys.
