Hey GooD-NTS, Great new version of OpenIV
I'm sure you fix the texture problem and go to add the models preview

I keep an eyes about you on MSN
bye !

[BeatFK]

Like everybody up, I succeed in replacing the texture by a PNG (same resolution, same name, same type of clothes), the DOS save command works, But I then can't open the file anymore, nor with OpenIV nor with Spark0.5, and I see a "Memory leak" window when quitting OpenIV.

In game, it doesn't work either. Changed textures just disappear.


But Great tool, I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

Did what they did, but my IV does not start anymore. Even after putting back original files. (The loadscreens finish, but when it comes to the "Loading - Mission Name" it just keep load without results.

Great job!

No change.


Still "Access violation"

To italians only: Italian translation for this version.
The archive will be updated every time a new version of OpenIV will came out.


GooD-NTS: I made the translation by editing xml files.

Ive managed to replace textures using the " EDIT " Function instead
of using " Replace " Function, once textures are imported i rebuilt the
.RPF which worked See HERE >> Texture Imported Successfully <<

Although once in game there are no changes..

Same as you I succeeded to replace Roman's face with Brucie's.


But in game, no change.

Hmm... my game don't start now since I modified some files with OpenIV

[R3verse]

Seem to have texture import working by following these steps

Backed up ""playerped.rpf""
Opened ""playerped.rpf""
Selected ""uppr_diff_009_a_uni.wtd""
Right Click "EDIT""
Imported Custom Texture ""uppr_diff_009_a_uni.png""
Rebuilt ""playerped.rpf""

Note to see Custom textures you must have your graphics ""Texture Settings"" set to ""High""
I tried ""Medium Texture Settings"" but this yields no results..

That's maybe because OpenIV doesnt generate the mipmaps for the new textures. Mipmaps used by lower settings ingame.

Though I'm not sure 100% since I did not test this tool yet.

I think your %100 Correct Once OpenIV has .DDS support MipMaps should make
textures visible on lower Texture Settings..

i cannot get this to open the playerped.rpf for love nor money.
Here is the error code I get.


Sorted, it didn't like opening a file I had previously modded using Spark. Replaced playerped.rpf with copy of origonal and it now opens okay.

I can import textures but they show up strange... Like the game is trying to put textures on at the same time... and by that I mean the one that came with the game and the one that I changed it to...

Do the pngs have to be made/saved/changed in anyway apart from the way it came out of open iv?

I have my game running on High..

EDIT: Here are two pics explaining



As you can see I can import and view in the game... its just using both somehow... even tho I replaced the exported png with a modified one... The Jacket I used was "upper_diff_011_a_uni.wtd"

Here is my new png:


Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the info, R3verse. It now works, shame I can't run correctly the game on High. Waiting for those Mipmaps or whatever it is

Edit: it looks like mipmaps, yep:

I succeeded to change the Niko's ugly army cap by a more beautiful ped cap.


But same as Rich246, the game is superimposing the new texture with the original. I don't know where it finds the original though it is supposed to be changed/deleted.

Works 100% fine for me, I added names to all the gun textures and painted a penis on the ambulance to test.
