Help reskinning

Recommended Posts

I'm having troubles unlocking .dds files FOR PERSONAL USE reskins.

Heres my steps (I used the LEV, err tried to.)

Renamed Light_Equipment_Truck.dds to Light_Equipment_Truckt.v3o

Opened mod in Em4 editor

Unpack Light_Equipment_Truckt.v30 (no visual confirmation?)

Close editor

Renamed Light_Equipment_Truckt.v3o to Light_Equipment_Truck.dds

Opened DDSConverter 2

Selected Light_Equipment_Truck.dds

OK button stays gray. double clicked above file name

Pop-up window appears with progress stating failed.

Read as follows:

Event Viewer:

Conversion from [DDS] to[JPG] started...

Error: cannot load [light_equipment_truck.dds]

Conversion has failed

Total: 1 Success: 0

Buffer use: 0.5% Failure:1

Any thoughts?

There is no confirmation when you unlock the file. You could download and use paint.net for you reskins because it can open .dds files.

I'll check that out. What's odd is DDSConverter will open the Battalion Chief's Car, and it says it converted it, I even see the file withing DDSCV. It just doesn't actually exist on my computer... And that was with a locked file...
