Help with texures
I did this before a couple years ago but lost all and forgot exactly how I did it. I want to replace the leather biker jacket in the dlc greaser file.
I have RIcks tools but the decompreser and decrypter never worked for me but I have done it with just the ExploreSDS tool. I can open the sds file and find the texture and save that texture to the desktop, then I use DXTBMP to open it and send it to my paint shop pro program. I can change it orÃâàpaint it or add names an such and then save and reopen the saved file back in DXTBMP. I then save that file as it was, DDS1. I can then put it back into the ExploreSDS tool and save archive to the original file. Nothing changes even though I can open the original texture file and it shows all changes. Am I saving in the wrong format? I tried DDS5 and it saved but the texture was scrambled in the game.
Here is something interesting, you can see the logo I put on the back of the jacket in the mirror but not on the guy.

You do it by editing the 512×512 file instead of the large 1024×1024.
Thanks Mike, great to find this site and get back into this again.
Here is what I have from the greaser player file.

This image is the one I edited and the first texture on the list and I think it was a 512 texture.

The 2nd texture is the spec map and this is the 3rd texture that I assume is the bumpmap?

The 4th texture is a shadow map? It is only light and dark with no detail.
The rest are glass dds
Got it sorted, had the wrong sds tool. All good now.
