The red line can't have .msh on the end of it however. If you add .msh it won't work. Only the green line should have .msh.

I see, for the texture, I have to put override texture! . Does this apply to every trooper?

No, not all.

You can with:

Battledroids
The misc jedi
Some rebels


maybe more.

Also Ep2 Clone Troopers.

There's a topic about that... And Rep explained in it how you could add it to msh's which don't have it... Try to search for that (sorry I'm too lazy at the moment )

no, I mean to get a texture for a jedi, unit ect... do you have to use override texture?

No, the msh itself call for a texture. jed_inf_jedi.msh calls for jed_inf_jedi01.tga Most of the times, the tga has the same name as the msh. The creators didn't want 5x the same .msh in the Jedi side, so they just putted an overide texture function in it, which has to be called in the odf, and the tga called will be loaded then. The name says it allready; overidetexture, so replacing the texture called for by the one called in the odf. So the point: You only need to have jed_inf_jedi01.tga and jed_inf_jedi.msh in you msh file and call jed_inf_jedi in the odf as msh... Then it'll work

Yes, unless you want to hex edit it.

No caleb, you don't need to add the line overide texture to the odf! Just change the existing file... Unless you want more with the same model; example is the Jedi side

You mean renaming the tga to what the mesh calls?
easier just to add the ODF line.

I thought he was just asking for the tga...Why should you change or overide texture? Just modify let's say jed_inf_jedi01.tga... The msh calls for that so that texture will be loaded. I know you do the same as i do, you just don't understand me (probably my bad english)

You mean hex editing the mesh?
Still, why go to the trouble, if it has the override implemented?

Ok, i will try to clear myself up. What i mean, is why should you go to trouble, even if it's overideparent, if you could just reskin it? You know opening the tga up in gimp/photoshop and saving again. That's what i mean. Why should he have an overide texture line in his odf, if he could just reskin the jed_inf_jedi01.tga (that's the original tga the msh asks for)

That's a valid point. There's no reason to have the overridetexture in this particular .odf, since the .msh already calls for jed_inf_jedi01.tga. Let the OP worry about override textures another day - right now this is probably all just confusing and unnecessary.

I agree, I'm sorry i just wanted Caleb to understand my vague points Sorry Mav'
