skins

[-8.0-]

ok before anybody says anything. these are not for cheating! these will be used in sp only! there arent any servers out there that allow skins anyway

i want to make some weapon skins. i downloaded the dds plugin for ps7 and i downloaded the pff extractor from raven. my question is..... when i extract the dds files will the file move to another spot or will it just make a copy of it. i dont want to totally screw my game up so this is why i ask.

thanks!

When you extract the file, the original stays in the pff file.

I usually extract the whole contents into a folder of my choice.

Make sure you create the folder before you run Ravens extractor, cos there's no option to create one when you extract.

Depending on what game your going to mod, you may need to decompress the dds files.

BHD dds files are not compressed.

DFX and JO dds files are compressed, so you will need the unofficial mod tools posted by DV at most of the DF support sites, if you can't find them here at NovaHQ, then we have a copy at DFBarracks.

From those tools you need the BFC1Extractor.

If your modding DFX or JO, then just place your modded dds file into the game folder, and it will be used instead of the one in the pff file.

If your modding BHD, same thing, but you need to edit the target line of your icon, and add (space)/d to the end..

This enables the "Use External Resources"..

Here's a link to a post at DFB telling you how to add the /d

don't use them in Novaworld Stats server or the edited text field in the game.exe they will see it and get you banned.

only a warning using mods in stats servers
